Review on πŸƒ Garmin Forerunner 220 - White/Purple by Matthew Bowman

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works fine for me - Cheers Garmin!

I've owned several other gamins over the years including two multisport and two running and this is my favorite of them all. I have to say I've only relied on Garmin's multisport for swimming and cycling (I use a Garmin computer on my bike) so I really need GPS for running - I like tracking pace, elapsed time and distance. on a screen. I don't use virtual partners; I'm not interested in VO2max estimates and am skeptical of calorie counts as I've seen mixed results across different models/brands. This Forerunner is big (I have small wrists), looks pretty good, and is competitively priced. (compared to other Garmins). It also finds the satellite much faster than any I've had before. I've been using it for a few weeks now with absolutely no problems. I plan to use this in my upcoming running and triathlon events next year; he does what i want. I like how the charger connects; I haven't had any luck with clips so I was glad to see the charger on this one.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Infinitely Sluggish
