This is my third, and favorite Garmin watch. As a runner it has everything I need and not a bunch of stuff I don’t. Also very user friendly.

So easy to use. I love this watch so much. Battery lasts for so long and would choose this over my Apple Watch any day. It’s amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

Garmin. 55 runner made a difference in my everyday life not just training. Love the swimming and custom features to my lifestyle

I bought a Forerunner 55 to replace a 35 that I had for seven years. My 35 stopped reading my heart rate, measured distance incorrectly and the light quit. It had served me well so I bought what I thought would be it's replacement. The 55 I received would not stay paired with the Garmin app. I needed to pair every time I used the app to sync. It also took minutes to acquire the starting location. I called support and got a replacement. The replacement does the same thing. My 35 would go months without needing to be paired. It would also acquire the starting location in seconds not minutes. The 55 is unnecessarily complicated and the instructions for pairing are wrong. Also when pairing the app has me register the watch again.

I have from a month ago, but I can observe its kind of fragil, small size, not so many futures. It doesnt read the sleeping time. At the very end it is a really basic garmin watch. If there is a possibility to get a better garmin watch, I would suggest to go for it. The good about it is the weight of the watch. It is very light.

I got this watch to help me track my run times, I hate running but this at least helps give me feed back about pace and distance. It's nice that it gives me alerts from my phone about texts or calls if I don't have my phone directly on me. My only complaint was while I was abroad it kept the time in America and this watch is expensive but it is cheaper than other options.

I bought this because a lot of people that I run with have Garmin watch, so I thought that I would give them a try. So glad that I did! I have just ran the Turkey Trot, and it was so awesome to see all of my stats just by looking at my wrist. If you’re on the dance about getting one, just commit, you’ll never regret it!

This watch has everything I need and is easy to use! I love that it gives me so much data and pairs with garmin connect. It would be nice to have a few more activity options, but it does have an other option so it's usually not a problem. Nice, light, easy to use, and at a good price point!

I bought my forerunner second hand and it is just unbeatable. Charging is merely optional every two to three weeks maybe. I’ve hit it on several metal surfaces with enough force to accidentally break it and it doesn’t have a scratch besides the one that was there when I got it. Honestly makes me scared at what put that scratch there. I work in a manufacturing facility with pots of molten metal around and this thing doesn’t complain about the heat. I love it never switching to anything else.

My first smartwatch. I've used this for a couple weeks, so I'll only give it 4 stars based on duration of use. I use it for hiking. It's simple, great for showing time, distance, heart rate, etc. The battery life is excellent and charges extremely fast. After a 3 and a half hour 15 mile hike the battery was still at 87%. If I could change anything it would be to display more data on the activity screen. Other than that, I'm impressed. Would recommend.
