Apple Watch vs Garmin Forerunner 55
in this rainy running morning i wanted to test both of my fitness watches: apple watch 7 and garmin forerunner 55.
this is not a professional comparison but just a fun amateur experiment.

Depending on the model, Apple has better HR sensor, but Garmin does better GPS tracking. And of course the battery life.

thats missinformation you got there! apple watch got a good GPS tracking, would say almost perfect one.there are a lot of tests and comparisons of all "known" tracking watches. Apple is kinda superior in most of the categories. exept batterylife, thats a point yeah.

Garmin! Only Garmin! 👌
Apple charges every day and garmin 5 or 7 day's
Man I'd love the battery life on the Garmin but at the same time I really like using the Nike app with the guided runs. Makes it a bit lively and really helps during those awful days. If it wasn't that annoying to use & keep track of both (Garmin + NRC) especially the shoe mileage, I'd 100% go for Garmin. Maybe once I outgrow NRC I'll finally buy one

So the NRC doesn’t work on the Garmin? I’m about to buy one smart watch because I wanna be able to run without my fun and to be able to do Nike guided runs and also listen to music in Spotify, I’m thinking about buying the SE? Do you have an opinion on this?

@@mosardilla the drawback with any of the Apple Watch models is that the battery life is so terrible vs running watches (Garmin/Coros). Stat tracking is also much better on Garmin as far as I can tell. If you really want to improve your running times, you're most likely gonna buy a Garmin or Coros anyways so might as well go get that. Just play Spotify & NRC via your phone at the same time. Not saying that the Apple Watch is bad but you have to think about how long you are gonna use NRC before you decide to have your own training routine. For me, I'm still loving NRC so I'm holding off buying a Garmin.

Hi! Which watch do you recommend out of the two presented? How does the body battery in a Garmin work?

hi! both watches are very very good and their sensors are very accurate. All depends by your needs and what do you want from them. In my opinion the apple watch is much for an easy smart daily usage. On the other hand the Garmin is better in terms of sport watch because it gives you much data about your workouts. The battery life is far better on the Garmin (18 days) Apple Watch (1 day)
on the garmin watch face did you custom edit that one? i have the garmin connect app already

Picking Garmin over Apple Watch is giving up 70% of practicality for an extra 5% of data 99% of people will stop caring for after 2 weeks of having that Garmin watch.

@@Dramatello what do you mean hurt? You are comparing apples and bananas. FR55 is for running, and it's much cheaper and has better features for running. Apple watch obviously has more features, but also far more expensive (the whole apple ecosystem by itself) and it's not designed to be a runners watch. And runners do care about the extra "5%" of data. But there are far more useful features for running on the FR55 than only 5%

ottima scelta. ti consiglio più che altro una complicazione che ti permette di leggere meglio la zona cardio in tempo reale mentre corri. cerca "RunningDF4 1" di "RH-SPORTS" sull'app Garmin IQ. scaricala e installala io mi sono trovato benissimo
