    Was a gift for my father as an upgrade from his Fitbit. He loves it! It has been a practical upgrade and yet simple enough for a 72 yo to learn and utilize!

    I love the watch. I am a beginner runner and i need a constant track of the miles and heart rate. GPS is great but sometime the heart rate doesn't get recorded. overall its a good product

    I am very happy with my purchase of the Garmin Forerunner 235. I wanted to better track my runs but not be more attached to my phone. Easy to use. Great quality.

    Works as advertised. Wrist based HR is slow to respond but that is to be expected. I also have to wash the band after sweating or will have an allergic reaction on my wrist.

    This is an outstanding fitness watch. Great for running/activity, but also versatile enough for everyday use! I'd buy it again in a heartbeat (which it tracks accurately, too)

    I love how light the watch it! It's perfect, and actually makes me want to run more often so I can improve my VO2 max. I can even download training scheduled onto the watch.

    I am very impressed with garmins product. You can download apps from the IQ store for other activity tracking. My only critique is that those activities are limited.

    This watch is very user friendly for runners! I’m not tech savvy and was able to set this up and use it within minutes. The Garmin app is also great!
