Now, there&#8217;s an unlikely retailer offering an eye-catching deal that could sway shoppers to pick Garmin, often known for its &#8216;hardcore&#8217; fitness watches.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Shoppers can <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com?id=76202X1587086&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boots.com%2Fgarmin-venu2-smartwatch-black-slate-10326912\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">get hundreds off a new Garmin smartwatch<\/a> &#8211; including the Forerunner 255 model &#8211; at Boots. Arguably not the first port of call retailer for GPS-tracking fitness devices, the beauty high street retailer is now offering a pretty eye-catching offer. The \u00a3115 discount on the Forerunner 255 Smartwatch caught our eye, as the price is cut from an original \u00a3349.99 to \u00a3234 &#8211; which you can<a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com?id=76202X1587086&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.boots.com%2Fgarmin-forerunner-255-music-gps-running-watch-black-10326913\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> buy here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>An unlikely deal which beats\u00a0<a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com\/?id=76202X1587086&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hsamuel.co.uk%2Fgarmin-venu-2s-ladies-white-silicone-strap-smartwatch%2Fp%2FV-1553569\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">H Samuel<\/a> and even Garmin at its own game. Garmin is often dubbed the &#8216;go-to&#8217; brand for tracking fitness and is ideal for wearers looking to tap into the specifics of their body performance, health goals, and stats. This model even measures body battery levels &#8211; which helps assess wearers&#8217; energy levels and rest, which is a selling point compared to rival models like the Galaxy Watch Ultra &#8211; there are also cheaper options around, like the Fitbit Charge 6 that&#8217;s <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com\/?id=76202X1587086&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.very.co.uk%2Ffitbit-charge-6-nbspobsidian-band-black-aluminum-case%2F1600935301.prd\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">now \u00a3139 at Very.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The now cheaper Forerunner 255 model also comes with health snapshot features, sturdy battery life and a sleek design. It&#8217;s been designed for wearers doing HIIT workouts, running or those wanting to tap into their health stats outside of hardcore exercise &#8211; like on their walk to work or school run.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A selling point is its wearability &#8211; and lightweight design and it&#8217;s battery can last for up to 14-days or up to 30 hours when using the more draining GPS mode.<\/p>\n<p>A downside to the Boots deal, in our opinion, is its limited availability of models on sale, as the Venu 2S has now gone back up to full price. This is why we&#8217;ve also picked out this on-sale <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com?id=76202X1587086&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hsamuel.co.uk%2Fgarmin-venu-2s-ladies-white-silicone-strap-smartwatch%2Fp%2FV-1553569\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Garmin Venu 2S ladies&#8217; model from H Samuel,<\/a> which is reduced to \u00a3199, down from \u00a3349 and a lot more neutral with a white and rose gold-like design.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Venu 2 comes with HIIT workout features too, and wearers can also watch Garmins stock of fitness videos from its screen. It can be fully synced with smartphones &#8211; like the usual modern-day smartwatch &#8211; and even has its own way of paying (without your wallet) with Garmin Pay.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The graphic analysis of tracking is superb&#8221;, said one shopper who rated the model a full five stars for its battery life and fitness stats. Where they said it could &#8216;track everything&#8217;. Another wearer highlighted the up it had, in their opinion, over a rival. They said: &#8220;Heart rate &#8211; Constantly tracked with improved accuracy against my previous Wear OS device&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Looking through shopping reviews, some wearers highlighted that it was &#8216;uncomfortable&#8217; as one person said: &#8220;I like this watch for tracking swimming and walking. However, I find it uncomfortable to wear&#8221;, something not relatable to all wearers but worth pointing out. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Anyone looking to invest in a piece of wearable tech to track their progress in the gym or&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6043,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3160],"tags":[3318,1630,1685,3314,105,3317,53,3316,16,15,3315],"class_list":{"0":"post-6042","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-gadgets","8":"tag-boots","9":"tag-fitness","10":"tag-gadgets","11":"tag-garmin","12":"tag-health","13":"tag-smartwatch","14":"tag-technology","15":"tag-tracking","16":"tag-uk","17":"tag-united-kingdom","18":"tag-watch"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114309019943469379","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6042"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6042\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6043"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
