Garmin Forerunner 955 smartwatch accidentally leaks

Garmin's highly anticipated Forerunner 955 could be here soon based on a listing on its Australian website that was deleted later.

Garmin has several products in store for its customers this year. Recently, it was revealed via a tipster that the Garmin Instinct 2 smartwatch series will be released next month. Now, the latest leak confirms that the Garmin Forerunner 955 smartwatch will be ready for official listing sooner than expected.

The Forerunner 955 will most likely be the successor to the Forerunner 945. A notable tech website — NoteBookCheck — revealed via a screenshot that the Forerunner 955 was accidentally listed on Garmin’s Australia website. This was also confirmed by discussions that took place on the Garmin subreddit, as well as on Garmin forums. However, the listing was later deleted by the company.

Although the features have not yet been revealed, it seems like the product will have aO2 Max tracking, just as the upcoming Instinct 2 and 2S series, along with plenty of regular features such as heart rate and SpO2 assessment. The Forerunner 955, which will likely offer GPS and LTE connectivity, will be bundled with other accessories.

The Forerunner 945 was one of the top-rated smartwatches of 2019. The watch, which was equipped with a thermometer as well as a compass, had a variety of features such as 24/7 heart rate monitoring and a pulse oximeter used for altitude acclimation for high-elevation training. It was also extremely efficient for stress and sleep tracking, with advanced sleep analysis. It was an upgrade over the really good Forerunner 935 , and we expect the upcoming version to similarly eclipse the 945 version of the smartwatch series.

The Forerunner 935 was launched on March 29, 2017, at approximately the same time as the Garmin Fenix 5. Meanwhile, the Forerunner 945 was launched on April 30, 2019, whereas the Fenix 6 was launched in August 2019. Given that the Fenix 7 series was unveiled in January 2022, we expect the Forerunner 955 to land in users’ hands by May 2022 at the latest, barring any delays due to COVID.

Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.

The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.

Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.

Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.

Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.

I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
