With the Forerunner 255, Garmin actually offers an all-round carefree package for athletes who specialise in endurance training and triathlon: The price is fair compared to the features offered, the battery life is very good, especially compared to the competition, and buyers can enjoy the usual Garmin quality in terms of training and tracking features.
Many smartwatches and fitness wristbands tested are truly multi-talented: they serve as heart rate monitors and altimeters, count steps, calculate the length of distances covered as well as calorie consumption and analyse sleep patterns. Some can also be used to play music, make phone calls or send and receive messages from messenger services such as Whatsapp...
