    Customers are mixed about the performance of the wearable computer. Some mention that it works well and has been fairly simple to use once they got everything. They say the GPS and heart-sensor work flawlessly, and the software works well.

    "...But if you can live with the data being on the cloud, the software works well and has good visuals for displaying all the data...." Read more

    "...The software and app are pretty, but don't work well. PC software crashing my top of the line computer...." Read more

    Customers are mixed about the connectivity of the wearable computer. Some mention that the Garmin app connectivity is great, but has some weird gaps. They love the link to Garmin Connect for keeping track of their goals and programming their watch. However, others say that it takes longer to connect if there's a lot of cloud cover, has issues connecting to their phone, and has a patchy connection. The GPS can sometimes take awhile to activate, and it would not connect to Wi-Fi.

    "...running, it is game over and I have to reconnect or deal with a patchy connection. At this point, I just don’t bother to use the music on my watch...." Read more

    Perfect watch for the average runner
    4 Stars
    Perfect watch for the average runner
    Upgraded from FR 225 after several years. Much smaller design allows you to use all day long without the bulk. All the necessary functions and more without the additional cost of useless options on other models. The band size has also been reduced making the wear comfort worth it. I normally do not wear a watch at night, but since this purchase and the design that comes along with it, you don't notice it at all. I originally purchased this for the music option. At 50 I was told to get rid of the mp3 player and wired headphones that I have used for years. Well worth it, paired with OpenRun Pro headphones and have had no issues. I did notice the "down" button is kind of mushy when depressed, but does not impact the function, just feels odd in comparison to the others. Well worth the purchase and very happy.
