Best watch I’ve ever owned!
on October 18, 2023
Posted by: meg00
I’ve been using my Forerunner 55 for about a month now and it is one of my best purchases to date. I finally hopped off the Apple Watch train and I’m not looking back. I’m a beginner runner and this watch has all the functions you need as a beginner and is very user-friendly. One of my favorite aspects about this watch is the battery life— I’ve personally gone a week and a half constant use and it will only be down to 30%. In all, if you’re thinking about buying it’s definitely worth it!

I received my Garmin at the beginning of the month and I'm SO impressed with the technology it has for the price I paid. I'm getting into running and different variations of weight training and strength and the Garmin is perfect.

I love it

My husband bought me the garmin forerunner 55 for my birthday. I’ve only ever used fitbit watches prior. I’ve seen people talk about garmin watched (mostly the 245 watch) online and mentioned it to my husband. Unfortunately I don’t have the money for a watch like that so my husband surprised me with the 55. I wasn’t expecting a whole lot to be honest. Boy was I surprised with the amount of info garmin provided with the watch and app! I’m very happy with the watch and love the information it provides. Photo is the last race I did with the garmin watch.

Great for multiple workouts

I bought this watch less than a month ago. I was tired of the poor GPS of three different brands of smartwatches (two Android and One Apple). For running and performing other workouts the watch is amazing. The GPS is super fast and very accurate. My only recommendation will be to have a strength training activity.

issues

had my 55 for over a month now and it was a upgrade from the 45. I replaced the 45 because the strap connection point broke and the 55 had a normal strap point. Now unlike the 45, my 55 at times will lock up when it receives a email alert. This has happened three times and when it does, the 55 is unusable. Not sure why this happens, but I drop back to my 45 (super glue is great) and wait for the 55 to unlock itself. Very disappointing.
