Garmin - Forerunner 255 GPS Smartwatch 46 mm Fiber-reinforced polymer - Slate Gray - (2022)

The FR255 Music is a great middle range Garmin tool. The sleep monitoring, multi-sport capabilities, battery life and how it stands up to rough daily wear is amazing. The battery may not last as long as the enduro and it may not look as cool as the Fenix, but this watch does everything you need and as a bonus, stores music so you can run without taking your phone

Original 255 began giving me issues w/ some features and Garmin replaced it under the warranty. While the first one was nice the replacement has features the original lacked and I am very pleased with both the watch and the company for standing behind the product. Easy replacement after receiving assistance via a chat session. Love this watch!

This is about my 5 Garmin and I think I like this one the most. I did have a 620 that was close to this one, but I like this one more. I am following one of the Garmin coach plans I I like that it is simple to pick a plan and it will adjust to my bodies feedback. I have 2 apple watches and one smart ring and now I don't wear any of them. I now use the garmin to track my sleep too.

Bought to replace an older Forerunner 945. I like that it is slightly smaller, and it has all the features that I used in the more expensive model. The main difference is battery life with this one - noticeably less. But, it works for a full day of recording an activity before needing recharge. I also like that this newer model tracks HRV.

So im not a runner but you can still use this watch for other workouts and activities. I'm more of a biker and gym type person. I also walk as well. I just learned when someone sends photos. I can video it on my watch. It was excited because I didn't know! Overall I love this watch! It was an upgrade from the 55 I had. Yes obviously it was past time for me to upgrade. But I finally did it! Its bigger and way better than my forerunner 55. I am super happy with it. For me I love the Garmin App. I've met so many individuals from the app alone face to face them. People being in town and reach out from the app and we meet up! Obviously we are friends on the app so of course if you like each other stuff and comment and join each other challenges. You build a rapport with people. What I would like Garmin to do is. Make it to where you can reach out without the world knowing about it lol. Sure they so happen to be in town and realized hey I was over there running today. Let's meet up. So we had to communicate through the app but of course delete the message right after. So it would be cool to have a space that makes it easier to talk to your followers other than under a comment.
