Customer Ratings & Reviews

Been running with my forerunner 955 for about a month now and it’s been life changing!! I love how I can send my location to my partner and he can send me notifications while I run. Overall battery is really good! I think I’ve only charged my watch about 4 times for 30 min each and it last me a while and that’s using gps, music, live tracking feature, etc.

My first garmin watch. Plenty of customization options, the gps is as accurate as it gets with modern day technology and garmin syncs with many other activity tracking apps like Strava. Would recommend!

What a terrific watch. A lot of features packed into this watch they also should include the quick release watch band with it.I I hope in the future the forerunners come-in a bigger size. Battery life is good after 9 days still have40 percent left

Amazing watch the battery is awesome this watch is really a training watch

Very nice watch love it when I go on runs and also grades my sleep so I know about my terrible sleeping schedule

Amazing product, everything is true on this beautiful watch

Everything ok, good quality, good customer service

I run 20-30 miles a week and this bad boy is amazing Really like the hrv and training status and race calendar I upgraded from 245 Wish Apple Music worked but that is my only gripe. Don’t buy solar just get this one I get 7-10 battery

Garmin never fails to impress this unit supersedes all of the Prior nine series watches specially triathlon training series

I've been using this for nearly 2 years now, and I can't imagine training without it. I upgraded from a 220, which had served me reliably for many years, but the heart rate monitor on my wrist has been a game changer. I didn't totally understand zone training before, but i'm now to the point where i've learned how my breathing correlates and how to adjust my pace and intensity to suit my training needs. The GPS is fast and accurate. Battery live is good; I'd say i have to charge every 1-2 weeks with near daily use.

I’ve had this watch for about 2 years and it has been really good. Battery life is about 14 days which was my biggest reason for buying this instead of an Apple Watch. I love that it tells me how I slept when I wake up. It does everything I need it to and more.

Love this watch. Great for keeping track of steps and heart rate. Sometimes disconnects from my phone.

Only a couple times has it frozen, but a quick restart solved the issue. Very light weight clean looking on my wrist. Syncing workouts to the watch through the Garmin app make tempo run workouts a breeze. Open water and lap swims are easy to track. All of these activities along with bike rides upload immediately to Strava. I go a little over a week before needing to charge it again with about 10 hours per week in GPS mode.

This is an incredible running watch for runners, even for beginner runners. If you’re debating between the Garmin Forerunner 255 and Garmin Forerunner 955, I would recommend just spending the extra $100 for the touch screen. Will you use the touch screen all the time? Probably not, but I have sometimes found myself utilizing it switch between watch faces when running and while browsing my statistics that’s it’s such a nice to have. I’ve brought this watch with me on short and long runs and speed workouts. Very durable watch and very customizable for the everyday runner.

Love my watch. Replacement for a prior generation Vivoactive 3 Music. Bought primarily for the GPS (golf) function, which is stellar, but also for general fitness functionality. Worked out of the box. Syncs well to my phone and it just goes. Awesome battery life. Can easily get two rounds in on one charge if needed.

It’s been a blast of a watch, all the tools are mostly accurate, works great, I know music on it is a whole thing but I ain’t gonna use that, I love running and biking with it, as well as some of the sleep features. Great watch and would definitely recommend.

The Garmin Forerunner 955 is an outstanding GPS smartwatch for anyone serious about fitness and training. GPS accuracy is excellent, workouts track reliably, and the amount of data it provides is impressive without being overwhelming. Battery life is one of the biggest highlights—it easily lasts multiple days even with frequent GPS use. I really like the training metrics, recovery insights, and health tracking features. It’s great for running, cycling, hiking, and general fitness, and it transitions well into everyday wear. The watch is lightweight and comfortable, even during long workouts or all-day use. The interface is responsive, the screen is easy to read outdoors, and Garmin’s ecosystem is solid. If you’re looking for a dependable, feature-rich sports watch that prioritizes performance and battery life over flashy extras, this is a fantastic choice.

This GARMIN do that it promise, is lightweight and easy wear. Using it every day for some sports (running and swimming) the battery live is ok even after one week of use. If you want a sport watch, this is a complete option, ofer many options for a reasonable price.

If you're serious about fitness, adventure, or simply owning one of the most reliable smartwatches on the market, a Garmin watch is a must-have. Whether you're a marathon runner, triathlete, hiker, or data enthusiast, Garmin delivers an unmatched blend of performance, durability, and smart technology that sets the bar for wearables.
