I love Garmin watches. My latest Garmin 55 has an annoying tendency to resort to the 100% charged screen with no obvious way of turning the watch off or on. It then annoyingly phones my contact !

I had a Foreruuner 35 for years and liked how simple it was to use. The 55 has many more features I will never use but I am finding I like it better everyday. The battery life is even better than the 35 and so much better than the Apple Watch.

I bought this watch about a month ago and absolutely love it! The training feature is awesome and I love how accurate the step counter is. I had the Forerunner 35 previous to this and it was great, but this watch is just off the charts good! As a runner, I love the feedback and versatility of the workout features. The connection and reaction times are terrific. The battery life is decent. Overall, a wonderful watch for the price and I strongly recommend to anyone.

It’s alright. I was told in the store I could download music to this one, you can not. It’s not very good at tracking sleep but it does good tracking runs. You just have to carry your phone if you wanna listen to music or a podcast.

I had a fitbit which I loved but wanted to upgrade. I decided to get the forerunner and I'm so happy I did! I love the garmin training that I can access right on the watch, it's easy to use and I'm excited to improve my running following the plan.

I love this watch. I was really excited about all the features. I really like being able to look down and see my pace in real time. The ability to customize the screens you look at while running is huge. Being able to put what statistics that are important you is awesome. Over all happy with my purchase.

I bought this a few weeks back, Still testing. The watch fails to identify different stages of sleep. ofcourse the accuracy is bad in most of the watches, but Forerunner 55 does a pretty bad job for its price range.

Against the intuitive use we are used to with other smart watches. No tactile screen. You gotta get used to buttons.

I bought this watch a few weeks ago to have a more fitness centered watch. I really love the 5k training feature and all the stats that come with it. I really like how I don't have to charge it everyday. It's a powerful watch with great features and isn't overwhelming with distractions!

Difficult to navigate. Trouble getting the coach to recognize the baseline run that I ended up running 3 times. Was hoping for an easy to use tool. Now I’m less motivated.
