Garmin Forerunner 55 - What I really think

This is a review of the Garmin Forerunner 55. Before we start
Forerunner 55 Pros
Accurate Tracking for steps, sleep, and heart rate
Ability to control music
Forerunner 55 Cons
Low resolution display
Small bezel that provides very little protection to the display
Sleep tracking not available on the Forerunner 55 Watch itself
Who is the Garmin Forerunner 55 ideally suited to
It is ideally suited to beginners and intermediate runners who want a budget-friendly, very easy-to-use running watch with basic smartwatch capabilities.
Overall, I would give this smartwatch a rating of 4.5 out of 5 as it has a decent number of features for the price. Another factor, which is a personal preference, is I really like the design.
And now for the Forerunner 55 Review.
Design and Build Quality
The Garmin Forerunner 55 or FR55 is a solid choice for those looking for a reliable running watch.
- Material and Aesthetics: The watch features a sleek, round 1.04 inch diameter face with a silicone band available in three colors: black, white, and aqua.
Display
The Garmin Forerunner 55 Display is a mixed bag, offering both strengths and weaknesses. On the positive side, the watch features an always-on display, which allows for easy viewing in direct sunlight and provides a significant boost to battery life.
However, the display itself is relatively low-resolution, with a pixel density of 208 x 208 pixels and a pixel density of 200 pixels per inch.
Performance and Software
The Garmin Forerunner 55 performance and software has both good and bad points. On the positive side, the watch features a robust app ecosystem with compatibility with both iPhone and Android devices.
Additionally, the watch includes several unique software features such as incident detection and Garmin Assistance, which can be lifesaving in emergency situations.
User experience and interface
One of the major advantages of the Forerunner 55 is its ease of use. The watch is designed specifically for outdoor activities, and the interface reflects this focus.
However, some users may find the watch's interface to be somewhat basic compared to higher-end smartwatches.
Battery Life
The Garmin Forerunner 55 battery life is a mixed bag, with both positive and negative aspects.
The charging time for the Forerunner 55 is relatively quick, with the watch able to reach a full charge in around 2 hours. However, we wish it had wireless charging like the Apple Watches but it doesn’t.
Health and Fitness Tracking
This Garmin Smartwatch offers robust health and fitness tracking features, but with some limitations. The Garmin Forerunner 55 activity tracking and heart rate monitoring are both more accurate than its predecessor, namely Garmin Forerunner 45. Activity tracking includes steps, distance, and calories burned.
The built-in Garmin Forerunner 55 GPS is also reliable, providing precise location tracking during outdoor activities.
However, the Forerunner 55 lacks some advanced features, such as sleep tracking on the watch itself. Users must check sleep data on the Garmin Connect app.
Price and value for money
The Garmin Forerunner 55 offers a compelling combination of features and value for money. With a retail price between USD 180 and USD 200 depending on the seller, it is an affordable option for those looking for a GPS-enabled smartwatch with a good number of features.
