Customer Ratings & Reviews

I wanted an upgrade from my old Garmin watch and chose the 295 because of the heart rate monitor. I love it so much that I wear it all of the time. This watch has become my favorite piece of running equipment and when used in conjunction with the Garmin Connect app, it provides great detail about each run and my weekly progress. Love it!

I like this watch a lot. There are endless apps and faces to download. It is very accurate counting steps. The GPS works really well, and then transfers your route to your phone, which is cool. The only problem I've had with it is my wrist bone hitting the upper right "run" button to start a workout, while I'm not.

This is one of the best things I have ever bought for running and helping with fitness goals. The options are amazing, easy to use with the phone and computer. My brother has another model and he also has great things to say about Garmin. This is one of the things that define me, who I am and what I do.

The screen face is easily scratched or cracked. Buy a screen protector and insurance on watch. Love the watch otherwise

Very nice watch for running, gps is pretty accurate

I have had this product for years now with no issue definitely good build quality and have a lot of features for a great price it's a little bit older so doesn't have great compatibility with third party apps but overall great product

If you are a runner, and want/need real, accurate stats and feedback as well as a 1 week battery life, then Garmin is the way to go. Most smartwatch users only use it to see who is calling, review emails and text messages all of which you can do on this.

Watch works well. Effective at collecting and presenting workout data. Does not have built in functions for hiking and swimming like the Fenix 3 does, but there are good apps for each of those activities. Garmin Connect is a good app, easy to use and understand. flexible layouts, good battery life. Happy with the purchase.

AWESOME watch ~ this was to replace the same ewatch my son had fro a few years- loved it so much didn't want anything but this, Runs well and stood up with all his sports . only problem was took a month to get it shipped, but worth the wait.

Bought this to track runs and upload custom training programs. Works perfectly. Battery life is great, 5 days if running every other day. GPS acquires quickly. Wish it had an easy to use stopwatch function. Custom watch faces and other apps available

I should of gotten the 935 not the 235. My bad!!!! If your a serious runner get the 935 with all the dynamics.

Great product and I like the wrist based heartrate monitor; however; the verdict is still out on how reliable the heart rate monitor is. There have been times where it was clearly off. I'm still trying to figure out if it's operator error or the product itself. Other than that, I love the product and am happy with it.

I love this watch. It does everything I need it to do to track fitness and it is also very sporty looking.

Pretty cool I love garmin forerunner 235 everytime i workout I always wear this coz it's very light weight

Pretry dope watch! Would definitely buy again! Probably one of the best fitness watches I've ever owned!

The battery life - both with and without using GPS - is great and that's a huge one for me, as I don't want to have to charge a watch every day or 3 or even 5. My one nit would be that I haven't found a count-down / count-up timer, but then I didn't first research whether it had one.

Includes all the features I was looking for in a running watch. It took a bit of time to get used to how to use various features, and I suspect there are still a number that I haven't tested. Overall, easy to use for the basic functionalities.

Purchased as a Christmas gift for my son. He runs track at his school and enjoys the GPS / distance tracker so he can time his runs & distance. Functions were easy enough for him to figure out how to work within a day. The "move" reminder actually seems to motivate him.

The GPS works really well! Haven't lost signal during any of my runs! I like that it lets you add in workouts too. I like to use the elliptical, and i can just plug in the numbers from it once I'm finished and get credit towards my weekly active minutes! Also works great with MyFitnessPal!

Impressed with all the features of the garmin activity watch... highly recommend it for runners
