Customer Ratings & Reviews

This watch is perfect! The battery life is awesome. I fully charge it and it lasts for almost 2 weeks. Definitely recommend.

The Garmin Forerunner 35 is a very nice entry level fitness watch. I believe it has a feature set that will fit the needs of most people. I find the resting heart rate to be very accurate. The active heart rate accuracy is more variable in my case. However, when paired with the optional heart rate monitor strap from Garmin, the recorded heart rate is very accurate.

Looking for a basic activity tracker and this one works without all the unnecessary bells and whistles. Simple to use and very functional.

I am a runner and this is a nice way to keep track of my progress. There are several options to track. I wish the watch was a little less boxy/industrial looking.

Very good price and benefits with heart rate in the pulse and GPS

I read lots of reviews both on Best Buy and other internet web sites. This Garmin Forerunner 35 fit my wife perfectly, not too bulky and plenty of all of the options. A big concern with GPS fitness monitoring is battery life but this is supposed to have excellent battery life in its class. I will post an update later after Christmas and she actually uses it.

Been using for 3 weeks fairly easy to set up and link to my android phone. Using steps,intensity min.,heart rate,waking and cycling so far. I don't know if steps and heart rate are real accurate,but their good for comparison from day to day.The cycling and walking programs are great! This is helping a newly retired guy track and enjoy exercise!

Item had features we were looking for in this gift. GPS was important. Bulky.

Got this for my dad, who loves Garmin, but would have been skeptical of other “fitness” devices. I thought he would appreciate a familiar brand. I guessed right. He loves it. Was easy for him to setup and he enjoys playing with the features. Great present for dad!

I have had all the Fitbits and an Apple Watch series 2, nothing is as reliable as my garmin. Must buy for your favorite runner.

The battery life is amazing and the step counts are more accurate then some other models we have in the house. I do wish that it was touch screen, but other than that, one of the better fitness trackers i have used and it worked amazing on a 30 day road trip across national parks that we took earlier in the year.

The functionality is great. I am very happy with this for training. As a new runner/walker, I didn't want to spend more than necessary and then give up on running. Now that I'm looking forward to more events, I wish I had more features from higher models. No fault of Garmin's, but I should've done more soul searching before buying.

This is my first workout watch I love it to keep track of my everyday move and at the gym great watch for my first purchase

It's incredibly accurate, and battery lasts for ever.

I liked the watch when I got but then it stopped working so went to the store and they were really nice to change it out

My son loves this watch! Waterproof, easy to use and a great neutral color to wear with anything. Able to sync with phone or tablet( my son used An iPad) and easy to pair. He especially loves how his daily minimum steps increases every time he surpasses the challenge.

Bought this to replace a Garmin Vivosmart HR which is no longer made. The GPS for outside activities is helpful and more accurate than steps alone. Can read entire texts and weather with bluetooth communication to your phone.

This watch is a must have if you are a competitive runner. Even your casual runner can make great use of the Garmin-Forerunner 35 GPS. So run to Best Buy and get the watch that will keep your running stats up to date.

I searched for a GPS watched and debated for awhile before deciding on the Forerunner 35. It looks simple, and actually is to operate, but it has EVERYTHING that you need in a simple GPS watch. GPS picks up really quickly and is incredibly accurate (showed my zig zags I made down the road). Has interval settings and so many other features. Also works as a smart watch, only notifications, but at least gives me an idea if want to pull it out of my pocket or not. I think if you are deciding to spend over $350 for something fancy or something cheaper $200ish, I highly recommend the Forerunner 35. The Garmin connect App does so much you wont notice the difference between the 235 or the 35

Upgraded my garmin and was not let down! Lots of easy to use features. I would have given the 5th star BUT approx 15 hrs there were unexplained sync issues between the watch and app. A search of the Internet revealed it has happened w/several garmins but no solution offered. Otherwise, this is a great watch and I would purchase it ten times over!!
