Great battery life..

Best watch I’ve ever owned. The battery will last for seven or eight days love the way it keeps up with calories burned steps in all the features that it has five stars.

Has everything you need to accomplish fitness goals. Comfortable to wear and doesn’t feel like you’re cutting off blood flow when snug.

I got an upgrade from my Forerunner 35 and time will tell (no pun intended) the more I get used to some of the functions

I like the amount of features, and would like to know about how to modify some of them to include more stats and data

Not for Me

I had a week and found the screen to hard to read. I had to tilt my wrist at different angles and the display was too small for me. I bought the ForeRunner 165 and absolutely love it. The Amoled screen is great along with other features the 55 lacks.

I've had about a month and am greatly pleased. It seamed with my android pretty effortless and seems very accurate. Now I can track my walking, heatbeat and sleep!

Another great Garmin Watch

In my family of 4 we have 6 Garmin's. They continue to get better each time we get a new one and this is no exception. The funtionality is always good so really the upgrade here is the screen. It's super clear, bright, and the last one we had was not a touch screen, that is a nice addition on this model. Great price for what you get.

Awesome watch
on June 3, 2025

So far, the Forerunner 55 is an awesome watch to have. Pretty accurate heart rate, step counter, running, GPS, and cycling functions. I have yet to fully test the water resistance capabilities but I’d bet my bottom dollar on it. I’d recommend on buying a screen protector for it just in case; it comes in handy for people who are prone to bumping their wrist in small/tight places.
Furthermore, I was cycling to a local lake to go fishing on Memorial Day and the Forerunner 55 automatically activated a cycling activity. Pretty good stuff. :)
