Garmin Forerunner 955 v 945: Which one should you buy?
The Garmin Forerunner 955 and 945 are in our opinion, both great watches that give you some of Garmin's best, top-end features in a lightweight form factor. We think both are still worth considering, but it really depends on what features you value most.

Buy the Garmin Forerunner 955… if you want improved tracking accuracy, bigger battery life and the same mapping support as Garmin's Fenix 7 series watches. It's also the watch that will give you solar charging powers too. Until there's a serious drop in price on the Forerunner 945, it's the newer watch all the way.

Buy the Garmin Forerunner 945 if… you want Fenix features in a smaller case, good tracking accuracy in most scenarios and you like the option of LTE to use safety features without a smartphone. But wait for a proper deal.

Surely, your stack can't overflow this easily?

No option of LTE in Australia
Buy the 955
