    Lots of features

    I’ve only had the watch for a couple of weeks but I like it. I had the forerunner 35 previously and loved the simplicity of all. But this watch does have a ton more features. For example it gives me a planned workout when I want to run. It only takes a couple of buttons hit and it’s ready to do whatever. The battery lasts forever which nice. The alarm clock has a snooze. I’m sure there are lots more features but they are the ones that stand out in my head. One more thing that’s a bit different. When I first got the watch the band kept backing out of the watch band holder. It didn’t seem to stay very long no matter how tight I made it. I ended up reversing the band. It is a bit harder to put it on myself but it doesn’t come out of the holder.

    This watch while having lots of nice features is the most complex to use. It is not as easy to use as an apple or Fitbit.

    I bought this a month ago as a replacement for my previous running watch. I run Cross Country, and I compared my watch with other higher-end watches. I was delighted to find that it was extremely accurate and easy to use. I would recommend this watch to anyone wanting a simple, easy to use running watch that doesn't bust the bank, and yet is still very accurate. I am super happy with my purchase!

    I had a Garmin Forerunner 35 which I loved for close to 10 years. It stopped working so I bought the 55. I am still trying to get used to it. It is not as easy to set up and use as the 35. I do not think it is as accurate. Maybe it is connecting to a different satellite?? I kind of wished I would have gotten the forerunner 35 instead.

    Very flexible. Good value. Not very bright so difficult to view outdoors. I hoped for the ability to view Time, Seconds, Elevation, Ambient Temperation, & Battery Status on one screen but I haven’t been able to find a face that can do that. Great for a runner, not as good for a hiker or hunter.
