Q: Is the charging port on the forerunner as horrible as other models?

submitted by Paul M - 4 months ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Garmin Forerunner 55 GPS Running Smartwatch. The Garmin Forerunner 55 uses the exact same 4-pin "plug-style" charging port found on nearly all modern Garmin watches (Fenix 5/6/7, Forerunner 245/255/945/955, etc.). If you hated this port on a previous model, you likely won't find it "better" here, as the hardware design hasn't changed. However, most "horrible" experiences with this port are caused by two specific issues that are easily fixed. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    Great watch!

    Greatest watch I’ve ever used. I use it everyday for track and xc as a high school athlete and it’s amazing. It’s waterproof and the screen won’t scratch. Theres many settings for different preferences. I use the Forerunner 55 and I love it!

    Not built to last

    Overall not a terrible choice, but it has no longevity. After 3 years, the GPS is unusable.

    Very thorough instrument

    A thorough instrument with many advantages. A little trickey figuring out how to use the functions but easy to overcome with a little practice.

    Not as good as I'd hoped

    Was hoping that the Garmin 55 would be improved accuracy over my old 225 but it seems to be inconsistant with itself (and previous watches) and dispite having a Track setting (which the 225 didn't) it seems to be as inaccurate or worse in tracking distance. Also the numbers on the watch face are more difficult to read, thinner fonts and the use of color for the right side of the Daytime or stopwatch time makes those digits hard to read. Making the watch smaller didn't make it better. I would be happier with the same size as the 225 or 620 and have easier to read numbers. It may have more features but they aren't things that I need on a run to run basis. If my 225 would sync to the computer like it used to, I would keep using it until it died.

    Some good features

    To a degree I am okay with it. It has no touch screen like my old Garmin, but it does track my steps.

    I like it but I don't love it. It malfunctioned the other day and I didn't understand how to fix it. I wanted something simple and this is more complex than I need.

    Doesn’t work for long

    I got this watch for my birthday and everything was working fine but all of a sudden the heart rate and body battery do not work no matter what I’ve tried. Ive tried emailing them but never got a response. The main reason I got this watch was for heart rate so I’m very dissatisfied.
