Review on πŸƒ Garmin Forerunner 405 with Heart Rate Monitor (HRM) and USB Connectivity: Stay Fit and Connected by Justin Hines

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very happy with the watch after my first run with it today.

I got it for Christmas but didn't take it seriously until yesterday. When I first received it 3 months ago, I was disappointed with the weak instructions and found it difficult to use. I didn't look anywhere for instructions so I just gave it up until yesterday. I didn't have the patience for that, so it's been lying around since Christmas. Yesterday I decided it was time to give her a second chance after watching a few YouTube videos on the watch. Once I learned how to turn on the GPS, how to view different screens, and how to navigate, I quickly fell in love with it. I first tried it on a simple walk around the block. I noticed that it is very accurate. It was fun watching the pointer as the clock guided me on my way home. Today I set it up and used it for a 3.0 mile run. I am very satisfied and will wear them every time I run and probably as my daily watch. I will update this review in the future when I have more experience with the watch. I was able to successfully install the software and submit my first workout on the website and share it on Facebook. It is fascinating.

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Reliability
