What Customers Say

People found that the Forerunner 255 delivers precise tracking for runs, rides and swims and that the battery can go for nearly 14 days, making it dependable for long training blocks. The lightweight case sits comfortably on the wrist and supports both GPS and triathlon events. Yet the button‑only interface is less intuitive than a touchscreen, and there’s no on‑board music or heart‑health features like ECG. Smart features are minimal and charging requires a proprietary cable. It’s targeted at serious runners seeking performance data without extra bells and whistles.
