Very difficult to set up

The instructions are very minimal, non-intuitive and force you to use the download to your phone. The whole process of programming and setting up the watch is so complicated that I sent the watch back. It's a watch, after all, but other 'smart' features make it too complicated to use.

Pros
  • Easy to set up
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Great functionality!

Oh my god I didn't even realize how much I missed my GPS watch until I got this. I had an old one that died a while ago and I just never replaced it... I love this watch so much, all the functions work great, I literally haven't put it down other than to charge it since I got it got Christmas! I also think the color is beautiful! I would really like to just change the group, is that an option?

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Affordable watch with bright colors and useful features

My new Garmin took a while to charge out of the box, but I loved it afterwards! Pictured is my new watch (garmin forerunner 235 turquoise, left) next to my old watch (garmin forerunner 25 purple, right). It is slightly larger, with a round face and a thicker stripe. Other nice upgrades from the 25 to the 235 include: faster GPS loading, a heart rate monitor, more storage for run data (it now stores 7 runs versus 14), and Garmin connectivity (though I'm not sure if that was or was the case). not

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors are here
