The Garmin Forerunner 70 is the much-anticipated sequel to the Forerunner 55: it's 'more mid-range than entry-level', but there's a solid running watch under the hood
The Garmin Forerunner 70 makes substantial upgrades from the Forerunner 55, but does that at a cost that makes it more mid-range running smartwatch than an entry-level one. It does still give you a great all-round performance and is the smarter buy over the Forerunner 170. You might just find you can spend less or a bit more on a rival watch to get something richer in running features and newer hardware.
Pros
- +Still a solid performer without Garmin’s latest sensors
- +Lots of new training and smartwatch features added
- +Sharp, vibrant AMOLED display
Cons
- -More expensive than the Forerunner 55
- -Doesn’t get all of Garmin’s latest smartwatch features
- -No open water or triathlon modes
