Good for sports

I’m pleased with the GPS quality and the sports features in general. I think my next watch will be the larger size, but I like the watch a lot!

Watch dead after one year
on February 9, 2025
Posted by: Greg from Mars
After one year the watch keeps switching off for no reason and despite resetting features. This is highly disappointing for a watch which was otherwise working well for a year.

Love

I love my watch! The only thing I don’t like and I don’t feel like is advertised, you have to pay for your music provider and can’t use a free music app. Ex: Spotify premium vs regular Spotify. I don’t pay for music apps so the extra money for the music part was pointless for me.

Three garmin whatces, only last 2 years
on February 22, 2025
Posted by: Forerunner S255
I have bought 3 garmin watches and each one of them just lasted a little over 2 years - each one. Which goes to show the unbelievable low quality. Nothing happened to them other than me running with them (no I did not fall). This is just some high level robery. Never been so dissatisfied with a company.

Long lasting battery and does what it should

Looks great, isn't too big for smaller wrists, and functions perfectly. Have taken on many runs, swimming, biking, and it has functioned perfectly!

Love smaller women's size, tons of features

Great size for women's wrist, easy to use and great app that pairs with device. Can set up training goals, it provides workout suggestions. I can enter in a multitude of exercise activities. It is not touch screen, which I prefer so you don't accidentally stop a work out and I live in a wet climate, no stopping for rain!

Great watch! Everything you'd need
on May 11, 2024

This watch is great for the price! I use the watch to run, yoga, HIIT classes biking and more. It's exactly what I'm looking for and will tell you your recovery time, heart rate, and includes a training plan specialized for you. The battery time is also great, although it does quite a bit more quickly when you use the music function. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to get into running or a training plan.
