Garmin Forerunner 255 vs Forerunner 955 In-Depth Comparison // All the differences!

Honestly the best review/comparison video I've watched. Super detailed, minimal filler. Pretty impressive. One of those videos I might actually watch a second time to make sure I got all the details.

[@DesFit]

Glad it was helpful. Thanks!

[@richdaillest1]

I really wish the 255 was identical in software to the 955. I love the 955 but I want the size of the 255! Garmin can easily factor in the same operating system/maps and hotkeys of the 955 into the 255 but they don't because the trackers are on different tiers. I'm a Fenix 7x owner but don't want to always wear the fenix and its a nice to give the wrist a break sometimes. Just wish they offered a smaller 955 or the 255 with same exact software as their higher tiered devices.

[@kedrickperkins331]

Very exciting to see triathlon come to the 200 series! Up to this point I think that was a hole in their line up. I’d love to see the event feature come to the instinct 2.

You're welcome and thanks!

[@mojito167able]

Garmin, if you're reading this, I'm pretty sure many Forerunner users would love a solar powered 200/700 series. Personally I believe most people don't really need the more advanced features like maps or A.B.C, but a solar charging feature on the next iteration of the 200/700 series would be awesome. Thanks!!

I think I saw on another channel there is a solar 755 though maybe I got it confused with the fenix

Good comparison, but 1 important difference is not mentioned: The 255 lacks Hotkeys. I find this super handy for quickly accessing features you use frequently (in my case the stopwatch, timers, alarms and Garmin Pay. My old 745 had them and my 955 as well, unfortunately the 255 does not. Quite a miss if you're used to them.

[@7amanito]

645 and 745 don't make any sense now. My only gripe with 955 is there isn't a small version. I don't like big watches, but everything else makes sense. I have 245 now and I'm not feeling upgrading to 255.

[@DesFit]

Thanks John! The 645 was one of my favorites but no indication that's coming back :/

[@mollyvision792]

I still use my 645. Only comes off to charge. It does what i need. It measures my distance and thats all i kinda need these days. Thinking of upgrading though because i stopped caring about my pace and concentrate on my heartrate and i think the sensors will be better on the newer watches. The 255 is definitely appealing but i like the idea of real time stamina monitoring on the 955.

Brilliant video (as ever) @DesFit. You've clarified something that DCR was not clear about which is breadcrumb mapping. Do you know if that enables route finding through a pre-made route from Garmin Connect or Strava routes. I use this a lot on my 935, which is due an upgrade, but if so, I don't see the need to jump to the 955 as the 255 would do everything I need it for.

[@Javiercav]

Looks like the 255 can even be an upgrade for 745 users. It’s a sad that garmin choose not to give some of the software updates to the normal 945. And just update the LTE. I think that giving software upgrades is something that keeps users inside the garmin ecosystem. And even bring some new users that buy the used watches when another user upgrades to the new model.

[@zfjames]

Desfit said they were likely updating the LTE here in the comments. As for the 945, it's running on a (in the tech world) much older interface, sensor set, and HR sensor from literally 2019. Not going to be able to support the new features

[@PamkoElessar]

I have a small problem, and you may help me, here's what it's all about. I bought Vivosmart 5 and I tested HR at the same time, for about an hour, with an apple watch and HRM-Dual Chest Strap on a Garmin Tacx smart trainer in Zwift. The results had not even close. HRM-Dual and Apple gave one result (166 BMP) and Vivosmart 91BMP. HRM-Dual had activity on Zwift, but Apple and Vivosmart did not. I ask around and didn't find the right answer to what could be the issue here. I also change Vivosmart for a new one, and I had the same results. They told me, you have to turn on an activity to have correct results. I said Ok, but what in a rest mode? similar answer. Garmin has to have 99,9% accuracy. Put in other words, we can not help you. I also wanted to buy a better watch, Fenix or Runner, and then I realized, maybe on all Garmin watches HR algorithm works like Vivosmart (If you ask me, totally incorrect and the whole data about stress, battery energy, etc is incorrect) and it will be waste of money. So could you please test any of Garmin watches in a way: On one watch turn on activity and on the other, not. Check watches from time to time to compare HR on both watches and please tell me the results. thank you so much :)

@@DesFit Thank you very much this is very helpful as are your videos! So now the 955 seems to be the best option vs 945 and the only decision now is 255 vs 955. I am torn between these two as the 255 on papaer looks a bit slimmer but i really wanted the maps and navigation. I wonder if there are any retailers where I can try these on, did you feel that the 255 was slimmer sleeker or not that much different vs 955?

The 955 gives me an IRL STAMINA BAR??? I'm in.

Great video man. Quick question, I am new to fitness watches. My main sport is MTB and that's basically all I do. Zero running! I have noticed this watch has the MTB profile which is awesome but since its a forerunner and Garmin advertises this as a running watch, should I stay away from it and look for something else because I do not run?

The 955 just rendered the Fenix 7 Solar overpriced.

Super important: 255 is hotkeys missing.
