    Love my ForeRunner 230. Excellent battery life - charge it once every 10 days. Thank goodness, a smart watch we can finally live with! No more having to constantly look for an outlet. How did they do it? You can turn-on/off Bluetooth, no heart rate monitor (total power suck), and screen graphic is very 1980's. GPS is invaluable to a runner like me. No more strap-on to carry a phone - that is so 2014 guys, come on get with it! Only .3 lbs! So light you forget you're wearing it. Some minuses: Can't get some apps to work - like weather, screen res is bare-bone for today's standard, limited number of available apps (but getting better :) Right now, Best of the bunch! But watch out, here comes Samsung Fit2 with GPS, better looking screen res and styles to match.

    It is made from very cheap plastic. I was very disappointed when I opened it. It feels like a cheap kids watch. Returned for something with better quality for the price.

    Performs great. No problem so far. It is a great option if you don't want the built in HR monitor.

    Works very well, no need for the heart rate monitor. Did a lot of research and happy with my decision.
