Garmin Forerunner 45 Review and Full Walkthrough - Complete Overview 

I'm using it for two years. Very good quality. It provides everything I need for training

Now that's what I call a review! 👏

Just got my watch a few days ago. Thanks so much for this video! All the things I wanted to know or set were here! Can't wait to try them out!

Thank you! A sensible, useful and easy turtorial. No stating the obvious and waffle - just good info. Well done

Thanks for the really detailed and clear review! Ordered after watching this video 👍🏽

Very good review of watch features... thanks for taking the time to do this. Very helpful.

Thanks for this in-depth and featureful review. Very excited to receive this watch, this week!

Good overview, but I can't get the watch to show the time, or control the face. In other words, I cannot get to step One of your video. I have the forerunner 45 sync'd to my phone, but the buttons are so non-intuitive that I can't make any sense of the buttons.

Excellent tutorial

Excellent detail information and clear explanation. Thanks!

Thank you for showing the setting...

Thank you... I'm learning the settings...

Great review! Thank you! 😊

Great and super-detailed review, thanks for your time!

Awesome video. Thank you. I just bought one and now how to function it.

Thanks mate came from a charge 2 and was a bit sparkled 😂 was turning things on and off had no clue 👍

Great review. Thank you.

Nice review!

The display is vibrant really? Do I have a different watch because I barely can see the display, I think it's a disaster, I didn't expect amoled or something for special but I really can't stand the display.

i cant found on my phone the yoga, treadmill and bike to add this activities on my watch, why?. thank you

Is it not worth changing to the other gps setting straight away if it works better? Thanks great video

Very thorough review I am watching it right now. I have though never been able to get text messages to it and I have turned on all kinds of notifications and permissions. I don’t know what else to do. So it was kind of neat seeing it for the first time at 8:55 lol

I have a quick question. How far can the phone be away from the watch while you are using it. The watch is great on gps but when i went back to the normal watch mode, I was about 2 miles from home and I think it unsynced from my phone and then when I got back it automatically came back. Anyway best tutorial/ review out there dropped a like!! Thanks gauging gadgets!

Hey man for some reason I have no watch faces on my 45 there’s no such setting on my watch I have looked everywhere help😢

I can't decide between this and the forerunner 735xt

Thank You So Much

Please show navigation fírst if you don't have map or coordinates.

Ask... Gamrin forerunner 45 or coros pace?

Confused by selections of types of GPS... if alone it's not great wouldn't one select all the others?

Great review! but which one would you chose at the price range below 200$? the forerunner 45 or the Polar Ignite?? Or maybe, with a little more budget available, the Suunto 3?

Does this watch not have pace alert? Where if you want to run an avg mile in 6:00-6:30 and if yuur going slower itll alert you

How can you make it so that the watch opens Spotify instead of opening default music apps, also does Garmin support Oppo ax7? Thanks.

thanks for the review, I just ordered it!

Great video, do you have any videos for cycling with this watch..

Just got the device. The gesture motion doesn’t seem to be working. How do I turn up the brightness on the normal screen it’s very hard to see without the backlight on

Hi, thanks for your review. Does it have the REM sleep analysis?

Thanks for the video! Good review! 👏

In Forerunner 45 can we track outdoor cycling ?

Thanks mate great presentation review. Keep up the awesome vids 👍 the only thing I noticed about this watch is the sleep tracking. It is not as detailed, it's does not display the tracking result on the phone like my garmin Instinct ....or am I going something wrong in the setup. Please help.

Do i need to have my phone with me while on a run? In order to get all the analytic data, like my avg. speed, lap time etc.. ?

I just returned two of these watches because the background display is purple not black Is this a common issue?

Hello, may I ask you if I could add pool swimming activity to the 45s? Cheers

Does the GPS is accurate? The walk steps it's accurate?

Just got one .when on run and want to know the time I find this hard to find. Any help be great Thanks

My Garmin forerunner 45 is not showing contact name for incoming calls.How can I rectify the problem

I’m not sure if I missed it scanning through the video, but what is the stopwatch like?! Does it show me the milliseconds?? This is the determining factor of me getting this watch!

I'm trying to set a mph pace. Can you enlighten me?

When going out for a run, do you need to carry the phone with you? What features are not available DURING the workout if you are not using the phone?

what should i get? garmin 45 or samsung active2?

Hi, I have a question... My watch recently broke on the band, which was under warranty and I got a new one. Customer service was excellent, by the way. Anyway, when I set up my new watch I think I missed something...on my previous watch I had it set so that at the end of each mile it would give me an audible time for my mile pace AND it would display my lap time on the watch face. Only now, it just verbally gives me my pace, but on the watch face it only says 1 mile. What can i try to fix this? I still love my watch, just can't seem to get it the way I had it before. Thanks!

when downloading the widget 'data lover' it said i may have battery loss when its running in the background, how severe would that be ?thank you and the video was very useful

How strong is the vibration? Will it wake you up?

Whats the best thing to do to get more accurate in UK thanks

Good day. Want to ask if it is possible to add swim tracking from fitbit connect to the forerunner 45?????? And if yes would it be accurate?

Can I do strenght training with this watch?

I've been searching everywhere online but haven't been able to find an answer. If I pre-program an interval workout to have a certain pace or heart rate, will that pace or heart rate stay on screen during the interval itself, or will it just pop up as the interval begins? Many thanks!

Hi! In watching your video, I don't have any of the options after the widgets, my says calendar, and then last sport, but I do not have anything after that. Is something not synched?

Is the 13 hours stated battery life for GPS actually accurate? Thanks.

I'm debating between the 45, 245, & 645?? I'm having to replace my old FR410 after 10 years and only because one side of my watch band tore and unable to secure it to my wrist any longer. . Any suggestions appreciated

Can u change it from miles to km ?

Hy there, can you plan a route on it ?

Forerunner 45: on the default screen that shows time, date, heartrate, steps, other thing, can i put the weather? instead of the steps for example, would be perfect for me, if someone has the watch i'd love to hear, thanks

When your done changing songs, does the screen come back on its own to your initial layout(distance, pace, etc...)

Is WiFi connection needed when using features such as the GPS?

Also, for pace, can one select mph vs the mile time?

Will this also work in a 30k - 42.2k training

Will it drain the phone's battery when the watch is connected to it?

Can we set higher and lower heart rate alerts

This watch is the ultimate example of featuritis. NOTHING is intuitive.

Will the watch measure everything if I don`t bring my phone with me on a run?

Does the GPS work if you're out on a run and don't bring your phone with you?

🤩

我很喜欢这个表面，但找不到

Didn't show the gps function!

FACE WATCH TYPE

Why are those watches so ugly idk

Amazing review. Thanks!
