Perfect for Runners!
Really Great watch for runners!! It has a very clean App and a tie up with My Fitness Pal (for Calorie Intake monitoring), which has most Indian Foods. I would strongly recommend this watch against any of the top end Fitbits. Runners, this is the perfect fitness tracker / watch to start with.

pretty sweet running watch
only had it for 2 weeks but i've been wearing it everyday. hope it lasts at least 2 years otherwise this watch isn't worth it. Was this review helpful
Pros:
- - fairly accurate strapless heart rate monitoring which is the only good reason to buy this over the 230
- - daytime activity tracking - cadence tracking - good bluetooth integration with strava - good collection of apps and watch faces to customize
Cons:
- - expensive AF - battery lasts about a week with just a couple hours of running activity
- i suspect continual bluetooth sync drains the battery too much
- - bluetooth range is very short
- - constantly reconnecting for sync with the garmin app which I hope will be fixed with the next firmware

Excellent running watch
I brought this to upgrade from my old garmin. It is lightweight, has the HR monitor built in and also counts your daily steps etc constantly. Fast GPS locating when going for run and good tracking of the run. I wear it all the time as a normal watch. Highly recommended.

Good middle range running watch
This is a good step up from Fitbit charge 2 as it has gps. However the first charge requires a heavy duty USB charger. So had to take it back to find this out. Battery lasts for more 6 days as detailed. It hasn't failed yet but the screen is hard to read if you don't have the right watch face.

Very stylish for a running watch.
This was a gift for my husband to update his old Garmin Forerunner with more functions to help provide him with a more accurate record of his running. He finds the automatic downloads much easier and has had many people commenting on how stylish it is.

Good for running & cycling
This Garmin 235 watch is an improvement over my previous 610 model.It picks up the satellite quickly & has improved battery life. I use it for running, cycling & link easily via Bluetooth to Strava.

Great watch!
I'm really satisfied with the accuracy of the Garmin Forerunner 235. The watch is very easy to use and includes a variety of functions and activities for me to monitor besides my daily steps and miles ran.

GPS watch that can track a variety of activities and…
The Garmin Forerunner 235 falls in the middle of its wrist-worn GPS units. Garmin sells a few less-expensive fitness trackers and running watches; the 235 is a step up from those in terms of advanced function for runners.
Pros:
- Stand-alone GPS
- Waterproof
- Serious ability to collect data about activities
- Can add apps
- Great battery life
- Reasonable price
Cons:
- Not as many functions as more expensive models
