## Overview

The Garmin Forerunner 35 is a lightweight, standalone GPS running watch with built-in heart rate monitoring and smart connectivity. Designed for runners and fitness enthusiasts, it offers quick satellite acquisition, 24/7 wrist-based heart rate tracking, vibration alerts for activity milestones and notifications, and a high-resolution display optimized for all lighting conditions. Its simplified interface focuses on core running metrics without the clutter of multisport features, making it the perfect companion for millennial professionals who want reliable biometric data and seamless smart features in one sleek device.

## Description

The Forerunner 35 is Garmin's simple solution to gathering biometric training data during the simplest form of endurance training. It's built to be a stand-alone GPS running companion that handles everything from heart rate monitoring to route mapping with no phone or ancillary heart rate strap or footpod needed. Garmin assures us that you can "Just put on the Forerunner 35 and go"; however, since it's so unobtrusive and its benefits extend well beyond fitness training, chances are good you'll already have it on. Since that's the case, you can skip step one and proceed directly to "go." The Forerunner 35 dials down the functionality of some of Garmin's more expensive models, resulting in a simplified interface for tracking running and walking without the clutter of multisport features. It's something of a bridge between the vivofit and Forerunner lines, combining biometric and lifestyle data with the added oomph of GPS tracking and route mapping. Compared to the vivoactive, it sacrifices multisport functionality while adding the above-mentioned heart rate monitor. If you're primarily a pedestrian athlete, then the vivoactive's golf, swim, and cycling modes won't be missed. The heart rate monitor will prove invaluable, though, both during training sessions and your everyday life. While you're logging workouts, the Forerunner 35's GPS capabilities track distance and speed while mapping the route. While these features do extend to time in the saddle, the unit is designed primarily for running. The addition of Garmin Move IQ means the Forerunner 35 transitions seamlessly from running to walking while keeping a constant eye on steps taken. The optical, wrist-based heart rate monitor is a constant feature, though, and while it may not offer the precision of a trained medical professional constantly checking your pulse, it does keep you abreast of exertion levels including intensity minutes. This lets it manage interval training for you, letting you focus on exertion ...

Review: I had a lot of questions about how this watch connects to an ANT heart rate monitor. In case anyone is wondering, it's an automatic connection that usually happens after selecting an activity, but before starting that activity. The screen will flash briefly "HR monitor connected". The optical HR sensor built into the watch stays active before starting the activity and several seconds after the activity starts. When it stops shining green, but you're still collecting HR data, then the ANT HR monitor is connected (there is no icon that shows which HR monitor data is being taken from, this is the only method I've found that lets me know which HR monitor is being used). Pros: * Very consistent daily calorie expenditure (my watch always estimates ~500 calories under how many I should be eating, took a few weeks of weight and calorie counting to get that number) * Tracks all my metrics for my activities and I can view them in Garmin's app / website. * Amazing battery life, usually charge it once a week for an hour. * Great "smart" watch functions. vibrates when I get calls, texts, and emails. Cons: * Randomly, the watch will vibrate and display "GOAL". It does this every day and I have no idea what its talking about. Towards the end of a week it will start displaying things like "GOAL x7". * Very difficult to extract metrics from an activity into a .csv or excel spreadsheet. Need to download third party software that processes a .fit file. The .fit file contains all the data from a specific activity. It's tricky to find the link in Garmin's web page to download this. * I don't trust the step count. It increments when I'm on the bus or driving. Use go up by a lot when I first got the watch. Fast forward three months and it usually counts 1 step for every 5 seconds of motion in a bus/car. * The information on sleeping is a cute, but useless function. Impossible to characterize a person's sleep pattern based on wrist motion, especially if there is more than one person in their bed. Overall: Amazing watch for tracking work outs, counting daily energy expenditure, and notifying you about phones, calls, texts, etc.
Review: I have gone through about 7 watches and returned them all because when you try to read a message you cant see it. My eyes are good and if I cant see it, no one can! But this watch is awesome, the font is large and the display is a very beautiful smoke grey digital look that is easy on the eyes. This watch keeps me in shape and beeps when I need to get up and start moving to keep those calories off. It receives all notifications from text to whatsapp to phone calls, etc. The app is the best part of this phone as it keeps track of everything and is well designed and professional. If you are a health nut or a jock, this watch is for you. There are a ton of things this watch can be used for but for now, I am just happy getting the notifications. Also, I prefer this not being a touch screen. The screen stays clean and isn't covered with my finger prints and swiping isn't necessary. We do it enough on our phones already. Its awesome!
