Garmin's Forerunner 935 is essentially a carbon copy of the Fenix 5, but with a few sacrifices for the sake of price -and that, ironically, probably makes it a better buy for all but the most hardcore athletes and outdoor trekkers.
The Garmin Forerunner 935 is a multi-sport watch that will just keep chugging along for days and days on your wrist. It also functions as a smartwatch and fitness tracker in many ways. It offers advanced running and multisport features in a comfortable watch you can wear all day, and it only weighs 49 grams. Hence, it's much lighter than the Garmin Fenix 5X. This watch offers 24 hours battery life in GPS/HR mode and two weeks in smartwatch mode. Forerunner 935 is capable of tracking a broad range of activities like running, swimming and cycling.

I have owned this watch for three months now, and wear it 24/7. Great for tracking runs, biking, hiking, and swimming. Sync with your phone and get all the stats on your activities. Having the altimeter is a real plus for hikers and mt bikers.
There's nothing better than training with a decent partner - and the Garmin Forerunner 935 promises it can be the very best that you can bring with you.

The Garmin Forerunner 935 was announced last month and as I continue actively training for my first full marathon in June I've spent the last few weeks testing out the Forerunner 935 and comparing it to other GPS wearables.
