I am writing this in hopes that a savvy shopper that is doing his research online will stumble on this.
In short, Garmin Forerunner 405 is a piece of shit. It might look sleek and if you were to play with one in a store you’d think it’s the best thing ever. Alas, in the real world, it’s a piece of shit. An expensive one at that.
I’ve owned this device for over 2 years and not once has it worked right in a training or race environment. I have gone through numerous firmware and software upgrades, countless calls to Garmin tech support and in the end I am still stuck with a flakey, unreliable piece of shit.
