Calling Garmin Forerunner 220 and 620 Owners

Hi guys,

Keen to buy a new Gps watch for running. I know lots of people who have the top range Garmin 620 but I'd like to get anyone's opinion/reasons from those who own a Garmin 220, do you regret not paying more for the 620? Or those who own a 620 do you wish you saved your dollars and just went with the 220?

Thanks guys! Appreciated.

    Hi,

    I bought mine when i found a great bargain, I think it was $400 for the 620 with chest belt from Blackman Bicycle. (I remember it was cheaper then 99 bikes)

    I personally liked the look of the white FR620 so that was a reason I chose the FR620, but the other was the price because the FR220 bundle was about the same price as the FR620 when I bought mine.

    Don't really regret buying the 620 since it's served me well during my running days and now, acts as my timer for strength training.

    • Great, exactly my thoughts. I can get the 620 for $375 which is a great price, but is still $100 more than the 220. I think that's my only real dilemma, whether to save $100 or not (ie is it worth the extra). Thanks for commenting, helpful.

        whoa, $375 bundled with a belt is a good price… I'd go for the 620. $100 for a few added function such as WiFi and Bluetooth as well as the recovery advisor is good IMO.

        • Yeah, pretty happy. From DWI online. Cheers for the feedback, i think you've convinced me
