I’ve already replaced it once because the screen went blank and it didn’t work. They sent me a new one and I feel like the gps is slow and the features are different.

Lot to offer for beginner friendly watch that will do heart rate (wrist) and pace/distance/calories/time and notifications. The battery life might be a issue for some but I can get through a couple training days before having to charge.

I like it very much I use it to run/walk ! Timer alerts you by vibrating & alarm for each minute - watch provides great information on pace and distance as long with many other important stats, like heart rate ! I’m very pleased with the watch - it also monitors your sleep cycles and provides information that is very useful to me - there are multiple family members who own this watch and all love it - we have become a family of runners and I know it’s going to prolong our lives by making this effort - the Garmin 55 makes the process more fun and promotes a healthier lifestyle !
Terrible Instrcutions

I want to use the most basic functions everyday, but the instructions go off on tangents. The watch works great but what about simple lets get started instructions. I don't want to link to my iphone, I want speed, distance and time
Love it

Inaccurate

Heart rate and intensity minutes are inaccurate. I just shoveled heavy, wet snow for an hour and my heart rate was 75 and I only had 10 intensity minutes which is a solute crap since I was sweating and out of breath. I ran on the treadmill last night and heart tracked between 60-80. This is not ok
Excellent watch

I love the forerunner 55. I love walking and meeting my steps, monitoring my heart rate and a few other things on the watch face. I like the simplicity of it and hope to start jogging soon. I love it!!

I have had this watch since November 2022. It has been excellent. The wristband is still like new. I also cover the watch face with a plastic cover which has really been helpful. Garmin makes an outstanding product. Just this month the battery has been lasting only 4 days vice the original 10. The only reason for the 4 stars.
Great battery life

Got as Christmas gift. Favorite gift became least favorite after more than an hour of adjusting visibility. Even on 100 percent bright this watch has a blurry and pixelated hard to view screen.

I am not typically wear a watch. However, recently, I have been trying to create a healthy lifestyle for myself. And when looking for a watch that tracked all of the vital elements I was looking for in a fitness watch. I found the Garmin. It gives me all the things that I need to keep tabs on during my workout and so much more. I highly recommend this watch to anyone looking to add value to their health plan.

I love my watch!! It does everything I need it to do and was a great price. I use the find my phone feature every week (Very helpful). When I don’t know what type of workout to do the Garmin coach normally gives a good suggestion. This is great for someone who is getting into running or the active watch “lifestyle” (simple and easy to use).
Awesome!!!

My kids each won a garmin watch at a running expo event and were super stoked. Now having one, it has gotten them more active in running and biking. They love the sleep widget! Can’t go wrong with Garmin!!!
