    Nice watch for runners. Not sure if it’s perfectly accurate but much more accurate than Strava or other tracking apps on a phone alone. So much lighter and more comfortable compared to the fénix 7 I had. Battery life is great. 100x better than Fitbit or Apple.

    love it for stress tracking and heart rate (even tho it seems off a smidge at times). needed something for durable to wear while at work and not touch screen so I don’t accidentally swipe on the screen

    I was always so enamored by the flashyness of an apple watch that i completely looked over the garmin watches. I have the forerunner 255 and i love it. Its simple, easy to use, looks sharp and the best best best best part is THE BATTERY LAST ALMOST 2 WEEKS ON 1 CHARGE. I wear it all the time so its always tracking vitals and lets me know when i need to recover or rest. 10/10 watch. Im getting ready to get my fiance one.

    Great Watch with a great battery life.. I will say there are a few metrics like body battery that didn’t seem to be accurate as it would tell me to rest more when I’d already rested a few days and got accurate sleep.. the steps were also slightly inconsistent especially if you weren’t swinging your hands (ie using a shopping cart).. but all the other metrics were pretty great like the mileage was very consistent on my runs..the watch was extremely comfortable as well even to wear at night..

    I used to use an Apple Watch and didn’t love its fitness capabilities. This watch however is quite literally perfect for me. For reference, my main sport is running and it’s super simple compared to the Apple Watch. Just press a button and it’s recording your run, the pace split comes up and I can constantly check in on my heart rate. Happy there’s no touch screen and that I got a discount on this because the 265 just came out.

    This is a great watch if you're look to purchase your first fitness tracker or a stepping up from that. I don't use it as a smart watch so I can't comment on that. The screen is bright enough in a ll conditions.

    I absolutely LOVE my Garmin Forerunner 255. It has so many features that you can't get with any other watch. I like that it creates recommended runs for you, based off of your running history and patterns. Highly recommend. Plus, the battery life is insane, I charge it like once a week.
