This Garmin Fitness Watch Is Finally Affordable Enough for Casual Runners

The Garmin Forerunner 955 is currently on sale during Amazon's Big Spring Sale, dropping from its original price of $499.99 to $349. This is the lowest price the watch has ever been, according to price-tracking tools. Garmin's Forerunner line includes some of the best running watches on the market right now. The price drop could bring professional-grade fitness tracker within reach of both more recreational runners who have been looking for high-performance tracking.

The Garmin Forerunner 955 came out in 2022 as one of Garmin's flagship fitness watches. The 1.3-inch transflective touchscreen display is easily visible outdoors in sunlight (the trade-off is it won't look as good indoors). Plus, the gorilla glass means the screen is scratch-resistant (but not scratch-proof). The touch controls also make it great for swimming or rainy activities.

While Lifehacker's Senior Health Editor Beth Skwarecki is partial to the 265, she says the 955 still beloved by runners. She includes an important note on choosing your watch screens: All the 55 models all use MIP displays (memory-in-pixel). These displays reflect light, much like old-school LCD watches, so they are highly visible in sunlight but require a backlight to be seen in the dark. They can display color, but only a limited range of colors, and they are not as vibrant or as high-resolution as AMOLED screens. You can read more about which screen is right for you in Beth's guide here.

You'll get about two weeks of battery life with the Forerunner 955. If you live in a sunny environment, you should consider the solar battery one, especially since it's nearly 40% off at $245.97 right now.

Some other key Garmin watch features to consider:

  • Advanced GPS tracking: Provides precise location and performance metrics

  • Solar charging option: Extends battery life through innovative solar technology

  • Comprehensive training insights: Offers detailed performance data and recovery recommendations

  • Multi-sport functionality: Supports various activities beyond running

  • Intelligent training guidance: Includes features like Training Status and Training Load Focus

If you're not an Apple user, Garmin fitness watches are the no-brainer smartwatches to go for if you're looking for the most trusted brands. In fact, I think some Apple users might still want to consider switching to some Garmins, depending on their sport.
