  • 3 years and counting!
Color: Aqua Style: Watch
*** I've been using this watch for 3-years (& 1-month) now. It still works great and I still have zero regrets! I even got one of my sons to buy the same model. *** ------------------------------- Original 11-month review: Thanks to this watch, I was able to drop the 20+ pounds I put on during my post-covid depression. It got me moving again and whereas the original daunting number of 10k steps in a day made me nervous, I now walk around 23k steps daily without even thinking about it. The challenges on the app have helped me move from my former weight loss goals to my present toning ones and suffice it to say, all of this has helped tremendously with my mental health as well. As for the watch features, I was looking at all sorts of brands and all kinds of models and settled on this one and never looked back. I needed a time teller, a pedometer and a heart rate monitor, in no specific order. I received all of those and more with this wrist decor. Not only does the watch look nice and feel weightless on my skin when adjusted correctly, but it works so well at everything it was made to. The heart rate monitor is very accurate when compared with other heart rate monitoring devices. The watch is simple to clean although I was afraid of damaging something whilst attempting to clear out the 'gunk' around the plug-in site. I didn't purchase the watch for the sleep related feature but it is an interesting bonus. After roughly 9-10 months of continuous 24-hour use, I finally started noticing it act up during my treadmill workouts. My heart rate would drop to 0 and at one point I saw it jump to 248. Since I wasn't dead or dying during any of these times, I thought I'd start turning it off at night and I haven't noticed the issue since. It could have just been an error that required an update but like I said, I didn't buy for the sleep feature anyhow. The battery life is pretty good I'd say. When I told my husband one day that I should 'charge my watch tonight because it's been a couple weeks' he was really surprised. I keep track on my exercise calendar whenever I feel the need to plug in, which I do during the night so it doesn't interrupt my steps during the day. I normally charge once it hits somewhere in the 10-19 percentile. This takes (me specifically) about two weeks to accomplish, with roughly an hour and a half, minimum, of recorded activities at least five days a week and the watch otherwise just being turned on consistently. Of course, there are extra outings that warrant using the start button once in a while and yet I still find my charge schedule to remain the same. You can choose from a variety of watch faces that come standard but I definitely have enjoyed looking through the Garmin store at other options. The background I've used for quite some time now shows the moon in its current phase and as a lifetime star gazer, this is a face I was more than happy to throw money at. I spent just a few dollars and received something around 10 different looks, several animated such as plants or flowers that grow or open as you complete your steps for the day- amazing, if you like that sort of thing, turns out I do. Overall, I love my watch and I hope it lasts me a good, long time but if and when it finally dies from time cancer, I'll be sure to replace it with another Garmin! ... show more

  • Getting the basics right
Color: Black Style: Watch
I have used the forerunner 55 watch for over a year now and I have been very pleased. It’s got most of the features that you would want and nothing too flashy or useless. The big selling point for me was the 2 week battery life and I’m happy to say that it has held up pretty well. I use this to track my sleep, mountain biking, gym workouts, and any other random I activity I get into. I went down the rabbit hole of all the fancier watches they have and realized I don’t need them. Sure it would be nice to have a touch screen, but do I really need it? Having a touch screen instead of 2 week battery life is not something I would swap out. And I prefer the buttons over a touchscreen because it just works better for me anyway. I like the size of it cause it’s on the smaller side and the buttons are placed well and useful. Overall, this watch has been great and I probably will stick to the forerunner series when I need a new watch in a couple more years. If you are getting a watch for a specific activity, maybe look at one of the more niche watches but if you just need a good all around watch for a moderately active lifestyle, this might be just what you need. ... show more

  • I love this watch!
Color: Black Style: Watch
I very much Enjoy this watch.. I use it to go on runs, walks, or bike rides to be able to track my performance, and record a map of where i did it Without A Phone and upload to Strava with that map later. Also great quality, not touchscreen, but buttons are memorizable, not like another "device" to mess around on, it can show your notifications, but it is not attaching or time wasting... Overall, it's a good size, not super bulky, and not so small it looks weird, it functions well a little slow but it works, GPS again is very useful for keeping track of things accurately, 10-15 minute setup/connect to phone and pretty easy through the garmin connect app. Would recommend! enjoy! ... show more

  • Fit for my purposes
Color: Black Style: Watch
Wanted a simple wrist device for heart rate monitoring at the gym and while walking, with or without a HRM strap but definitely without all of the current smart phone connectivity clutter. No, I don't care about texts, emails or other messaging when working out--I want to escape that noise. Struck out at REI. The days of simple HRM watches with straps seem to be over. But this device seems to fit the bill, albeit at a higher price point. I have tested the HR accuracy against my combination Polar HRM and Garmin high end cycling computers (1040/1030) and it tracks with remarkable accuracy --remarkable given its reliance on technology that does not include a chest strap. Variation to the Polar chest strap 1030 or 1040 combination did not exceed 3%, when it was not spot on. Quality seems good. As with any of these devices, operation becomes more "intuitive" with increased use. It may be that some of the cheaper knock-off smart watches available on Amazon perform well as well. IDK and am not going to speculate. All I know is that this one is fit for my purposes. ... show more

  • Exactly What I Wanted
Color: Black Style: Watch
I have really enjoyed running with this watch. It keeps track of my route, distance, and splits accurately, and the battery life is great. I even get notifications on my phone now, (which is both cool and distracting) but I think I'll disable that.

  • Nice watch for school aged children
Color: Black Style: Watch
I have six kids. Amazon.com didn't allow me to buy six all at once. It allowed me to buy 3. So when it arrived I gave it to my older 3 kids (14, 12, & 11 y/o). My other 3 kids were very upset. But i promised them that I will buy them the same pair of Garmin watch once it is available. after two weeks, today Amazon.com allowed me to buy another 3. I'm supposed to receive the items tomorrow. I really like this watch I can keep track of my kids physical activity, heart rate, location, etc. How I wish it will keep track the amount of sleep as well. But this watch is really good for school aged children. ... show more

  • Definitely not user friendly for someone who only needs distance, time and pace
Color: Black Style: Watch
I returned this watch. I wanted a watch that would record distance, time and pace. Period. I did NOT want a watch that required downloading 650 pages of cross referenced instructions. I spent well over 45 minutes with customer service (very helpful and patient man named Ken) in an attempt to set it up for what I needed. I indicated I did NOT want a complicated watch that provides number of steps, heart rate (if I'm a movin', it's a beatin'), altitude (if I'm panting it's uphill, if I'm tumbling it's down), plays music, allows me to watch YouTube, check email, send texts, brews coffee, or makes round trip ticket reservations to Mars (currently unavailable). When I run I want the serenity of nature: the sun on my face, the wind in my hair and birdsong. Ken told me that the Garmin Forerunner 55 has the least number of features I would never use and that without activating those features Garmin would be unable to support them. I told him I could live with that. However in going through the process of activating the watch I had to enter my name, address, date of birth, height, weight, number of children, pets' names, admit that I can eat a half gallon of ice cream in one sitting and many other personal attributes. It is also pricey. $164.00. In its place I just ordered a moutarlier for the bargain price of $41.99 and it appears to have the features I need and is more user friendly for someone who does not have an advanced degree in running watch technology. If this fails I'll use my trusted 20+ year-old Timex Triathlon that gives me elapsed time, number of laps around the track and has an alarm. Over the years it has taken a lickin', but has kept on tickin'. I'll track distance with my computer and judge pace by how hard I'm breathing. BTW I used the watch for one month and the battery died twice. ... show more
