Forerunner 35 was better
on April 28, 2025
Posted by: Debbie Ryan
I've been wearing my new Forerunner 55 for about a month. The functions are very confusing, and the watch face is difficult to read despite is very large size. Font it too small, too much information on each screen, difficult to 'back up', cannot even read the time because the hour is faint (and too big). Its like they could not agree on the size of the font, so they made the time extra large and pale and the rest of the functions to small to read. I like the shape and size and i'm hoping the watch band holds up better than my Forerunner 35. I like that it is thinner than its predecessor, Forerunner 35 (which I had 3 of because the band kept breaking at point where it was affixed to the face of the watch and was not replaceable).

I bought this watch and am happy with it. I found it confusing to start with, but all I had to do was treat it like any computer and press a few buttons to find out what happened. I really like the battery life. I have had it a month and only charged it once. Great stuff
