Introducing Garmin's All-New Forerunner 955 Solar
Lead the pack with the Garmin Forerunner 955 Solar, the premium GPS running and triathlon smartwatch with PowerGlass solar charging to extend battery life. The 955 Solar's new training readiness feature tells you when you're primed for a productive session, while daily suggested workouts adapt to your performance and recovery alongside the race widget, which provides training tips, course details and completion time predictions.
With Garmin's morning report, you can get an overview of your sleep, recovery, training and more — as well as a picture of your overall health with heart rate variability (HRV) status (This device is intended to give an estimate of your activity and metrics). On the run, new multi-band GPS and full-color, built-in maps help you navigate confidently. And with traditional buttons and a new responsive touchscreen display, it has never been easier to tap into your training status and know whether you're training productively, peaking or strained. If you're pushing toward the podium — or to the very limits — Forerunner 955 Solar is by your side with up to 20 days of battery life in smartwatch mode.

Reviews
If you look for functionality, this watch is similar to the Garmin Fenix with much lower price tag. I am happy with what I have paid for.
I took two stars away. #1 The functions are too much and some are really confusing. It really takes me some time to learn, such as the GPS. I know the map is there but took time to figure it out, which is not quite users friendly.
#2. Compatible issues. I cannot find from the Garmin's website regarding it's compatible to certain power meter.
The watch will be a lot better if Garmin can simplify the usage and list compatibility on it's website.

Year after year, Garmin churns new hardware with minor improvements. Instead of supporting their customers that bought expensive ($xxx or hardware) by bringing new features, Garmin pushes the button and cycles another set of watches. The 955 solar is just that. If you have a Fenix 5 plus or higher, or 945 or higher, skip the 955 solar. The battery life improvements are negligible for ordinary users.
