Disapointed

I own several Garmin products. This one is a disappointment. I wanted something very basic and without all of the bells and whistles. I need something to sync to a chest strap heartrate monitor. Initially this worked well. I liked the somewhat large display which made for easy reading the heartrate metrics. I've had this for about 6 months and it no longer reads or syncs to the chest strap.

This is my second Garmin and am really learning to love the 55. I watched a video on line for features and “how to” and that made it super easy to use!

A good basic GPS watch

Overall I really like it and I'm looking forward to using the suggested workouts, but the fact that I have to press extra buttons to get around it is a little annoying. Currently I have a coach and I'm having to go around it to look for my training. Anyways, it just takes more button pressing than on my old 45.

Not a fan

Just found that scrolling through the different screens/apps to be aggrivating. I would have to say i prefer the dial to scroll versus the button style.

Oh Garmin

I love my new watch and also loved the previous 2 I had before this one. They definitely don’t last forever. Which is why I appreciate this model, affordable version that does just enough for me. I’m training for my 4th half marathon and don’t love all the assumptions Garmin makes about who would be interested in this watch. It’s good enough for me but I’m def not a beginner, just don’t want to break the bank on something I know will not t last more than 3 years.
