Great multifaceted product.

This replaces my older Forerunner 220, which I’ve had several years. This model allows me to check different data, depending on what activity I”m doing and what I prefer to know during and/or after the activity. As an older fitness buff I don’t require some of the features on this 55, but its handy to have them available should my workout or fitness level change. Great product; not over the top and just right for my needs.

Great performance, UX needs work

Battery life and HR accuracy are great, and the form factor is nice and unobtrusive. Menu navigation is not intuitive compared to other products in this line.

Works better than my last Forerunner 55

I have experienced less problems by not linking it to my phone. It still takes time to start but it is less than my last Forerunner 55 which was impossible.

I had an Apple Watch and decided to jump to the Garmin. So glad I did! It is more conducive to my interval workouts both indoor and outdoor. And the battery life is FOREVER! I had to charge my Apple Watch every night. It is so nice to not have to remember to do that anymore.

I bought this before Thanksgiving. Had some initial challenges syncing to my new phone. Their customer service is AMAZING, and helped me fix the issue. Love my Garmin watch.
