Impossible to use

This watch while having lots of nice features is the most complex to use. It is not as easy to use as an apple or Fitbit.

INCREDIBLE

i bought this watch a little less than a month ago, and im very happy with it. i just started cross country and it helps a lot with my pace and i can see my runs in the app afterwards and it has cool benefits. plus, it helps me get up in the morning by its alarm. the battery lasts SO long, ive only charged in once so far.

My First Garmin!

I bought my Forerunner 55 about a month ago and love it so far! I was searching for a watch that wasn't too overwhelming with so many different features and could just track my workouts effectively. Works great and charges super fast.

Great features

Bought about a month ago I am still getting used to it but the mileage is a little slower than other apps I’ve used but I just need to stay consistent with the Garmin

Best friend

This watch was my best friend for 2 years!! It traveled to Disney World, the beach, and many other places. It was so supportive through all my journeys! Sadly, I had to upgrade . My garmin and I had an electric injury that compromised both our systems. My garmin is still on display, but now I have a new friend. The garmin 165! We begin our first adventure to Disney in November!

Amazing!

I love the Garmin Forerunner 55! It offers all the most essential features in a relatively simpler watch. Being able to track both my runs and my lifts is super nice and the sleep tracking feature is a cool edition.

My first watch that I picked up for running! Would recommend this to anyone looking to get their first Garmin. I think that it's the perfect starter watch and I had the teal color -- so pretty! I have since upgraded to a different Garmin as I wanted some more tracking features and access to more activity recording, but I remember the 55 having battery life around a week or so which was great for me!

Excellent Running Watch at an Excellent Price!

I bought this a month ago as a replacement for my previous running watch. I run Cross Country, and I compared my watch with other higher-end watches. I was delighted to find that it was extremely accurate and easy to use. I would recommend this watch to anyone wanting a simple, easy to use running watch that doesn't bust the bank, and yet is still very accurate. I am super happy with my purchase!

Forerunner 55

I had a Garmin Forerunner 35 which I loved for close to 10 years. It stopped working so I bought the 55. I am still trying to get used to it. It is not as easy to set up and use as the 35. I do not think it is as accurate. Maybe it is connecting to a different satellite?? I kind of wished I would have gotten the forerunner 35 instead.
