Solid no thrills

This watch is great for those wanting to track their fitness without all the bells and whistles that are on other models. I love the battery life compared to my Apple Watch that wouldn't last a day by itself and even less when using the gps tracking.

Great upgrade

I was a fitbit user for eight years and every two-years it would die or something would go wrong with it. So I decided it was time to move on. I was getting ready to do my first 5k run and this watch really helped me reach my goal. It was a learning curve but it didn't take long to figure out. I really like the body battery feature. This watch has so much more than my fitbit as well. So glad I made the change!

I've enjoyed my forerunner for a little over a month now and have had no issues with it. The battery life has been outstanding and it has been great for tracking my runs and hikes. Would definitely recommend.

Everything you need, nothing you don't without breaking the bank.

Title pretty much gives it away. If you are looking to replace an old Garmin or don't want to spend a ton of money, this is the watch. Simple, easy to use and not very expensive. Great beginner option.

Fantastic barebones running watch

You get just what you need for a running watch. If you are looking for a watch to just run with and get the essentials for a solid price, this is the watch for you. The app works wonderfully for free and gets you tons of good info. I've logged probably 500 miles on it and it just worked. I was sad to see it didn't have swim tracking, but beyond that it was perfect for a just running watch without too many trinkets and extra features.

Must wear tightly for accurate readings. Otherwise it's pretty slick.

Love this watch! battery life is great lasts me about 2 weeks depending on how many runs I track. It tracks the basic information I'm looking at as a new runner and also makes it easier for me to pace and train. I would absolutely recommend this watch to any new runners out there taking the next steps to improving your pace and distance. I also like that Garmin links with the Nike Run app and Strava.
