GarminGarmin Forerunner 55, GPS Running Watch with Daily Suggested Workouts, Up to 2 weeks of Battery Life, Black - 010-02562-00

I'll start by mentioning that this is my 3rd Garmin watch, I also briefly owned a 47mm Epix Pro gen 2, I gave it up because of the size. I also had a 2019 Instinct Standard, which 2 weeks ago left me, it simply wouldn't turn on anymore (I was so disappointed, I was attached to that watch). So I told myself that I wasn't going to spend $500-600 on a watch for 4-5 years and I bought the FR 55 from Amazon, $160. Now about the watch: 2 weeks of battery with 2 30-minute runs and a one-hour bike ride, plus wearing it daily for notifications, I find it excellent, the GPS activates in max 10 seconds, the Instinct sometimes didn't find a signal even after 10 minutes (I mention that I live at an altitude of almost 3000 meters, almost always cloudy), compared to the Guru Maps Pro application that I use quite a lot, small differences, the Instinct had differences of 1 km in 6.7 runs. Don't get me wrong, the Instinct did its job well, but this "little thing" is excellent if you don't have high demands, 37 grams, you can't even feel it in your hand. It's not a Fenix, but it's a watch that does exactly what it says and does it well "without breaking the bank". I would have liked the screen to be a little bigger, the watch is 42mm (recommended for people with small wrists) but the screen is significantly smaller. I should mention that I actually bought it to use it for running, 2.3 times a week and for smartwatch notifications. Otherwise, a lot of reviews online.

Best investment I’ve made on Amazon. The look, size, feel, and screen clarity are all amazing. I ran the Dallas BMW marathon with this watch and the functionality of knowing my mile pace and what my heart rate is while running was super important to me. When it comes to functionality, this watch is great for working out, tracking your steps, or viewing your heart rate/stress levels (especially at work). There is hardly any lag time when it comes to update and syncing with my phone. I highly recommend this watch for anybody just starting out in running or working out.

Great starter watch for those getting into running and want to track their running details more accurately. The ability to see more details than a normal smartwatch has been a game changer for my running. Extremely simple and intuitive to use. It’s helped me from someone who ran occasionally to running 2 half marathons and training for my first full marathon. The watch syncs with the Garmin App and many other running apps. Have recommended this item to many others, and they’ve all been happy with the purchase.

This is a great watch! I enjoy running on the treadmill and outside, so I got this watch to help me track my stats. It can integrate with Strava via the Garmin app. The gps is accurate, and the watch can be calibrated to track your mileage on a treadmill as well. (No need for a footpod unless you’re training for the Olympics and need super exact accuracy). I originally bought it for running only but liked it so much I just wear it all the time. I’ve had it for several years and it’s still going strong. Good build quality and technical functionality. Highly recommended

Watch was very nice but too small for my 8.6 wrist. I also had a hard time reading the print on the watch face as it is very small. Had to send it back as not right for me and hope for a full refund as it was never used.

This is a great watch—very minimal, which I actually love. I don’t need a ton of features, and the Forerunner 55 gives me exactly what I’m looking for. It tracks my workouts accurately and tells the time, which is more than enough for me! It’s simple, reliable, and easy to use—perfect if you’re someone who just wants the essentials without the extra clutter.

I just love this watch! I've had three and this one has the most options. The fitness tracker is awesome and you can pick your activities! It shows so much detail after your activity. It even told me to take rest time because i was stressed out! It's really cute too and you can buy bands in pretty colors!

Great product! Love the look! The screen is great in dark and light spaces! I am a xc runner and this is an every day thing I use! The battery life is great!!! I am going from an Apple Watch to this and this is 100x better! It also fits great!
