Forerunner 55 Review

This is a great watch for someone that is new to running and like to keep things simple. One of the main reasons I pick this one is how simple it is with out a ton of apps I don’t want this watch allowed me to focus on my goals that’s most important to me. And with the app it works so well together. Also love that I can go over a week without having to charge it makes things so much easier. If you are one that cares a ton about health and performance and doesn’t want a ton of unnecessary apps like other watches give you this is the one for you.

The Brightness

I'm very happy with the watch but I it's very hard for me to see it

Awful

After an extremely tedious setup, I realized this product is for runners. ONLY. Not the fitness watch I thought I'd bought. There is no reversing options, once it thought I was "running" there was no way to reverse it. Definitely not. Going back.

Overpriced

Not a good watch for the price, feels and looks like a cheap watch. Only good thing going for it is the HR and GPS

Forerunner 55

Perfect size and style smart watch. Use it for tracking workouts, steps, sleep, and many other features. Great to be able to see notifications and messages even when phone isn’t around. For the price and technology it’s a great Garmin starter watch.
