Love the Garmin Connect site and the ability to link ...

This watch has been vital to my training. I've been running for 5 years now and I've always been interested in doing a half or full marathon but never been able to go above 7 miles without injury. Finally, with this watch and the Garmin Training plan, I've gone from 3 miles to running my first marathon in another week. The ability for have your watch tell you what you need to do and if you're going too hard makes this completely worth it for someone who has a hard time pacing yourself for long runs.

Love the Garmin Connect site and the ability to link it with a Strava account. It gives you lots of useful information and it's neat to see the sleep tracking too (apparently I need more).

I really like the 235 and saved about $100 buying the certified refurbished model which has the same warranty as a new one. Screen can be hard to read at times near dawn or dusk but that is what the light is for. During the day it is very clear. I tried the Vivoactive HR first and did not like the block look and feel.

Piece of crap. Every month it randomly stops working and I have to reconnect it. Sucks!

Very dim screen

Unable to see the screen unless your in a well lit room or outside. Functions are great and the GPS is almost instant! If the screen brightness was fixed the would be 5/5 watch!

This watch is an excellent balance between a running watch and a smart watch. I was looking for something to track my runs and to function as a smart watch. It hasn't disappointed. I love this watch.
