  • After three months of usage, I have little question that this display type is the future of Garmin wearables. Not all wearables, not immediately anyway – but certainly the future for sure. Battery tech and display tech moves so fast. The display we see to...

  • Crisp OLED screen with an always-on display, Garmin Pay support is convenient, Music storage is standard, 5-day battery life, Unique breathwork exercises, Accurate fitness and health tracking, Useful and accurate sleep tracking
  • Touchscreen can be finicky, High price
  • The Garmin Venu can't compete with more established smartwatches like the Apple Watch Series 5 or Fossil Gen 5, but it has a leg up in fitness tracking. In fact, it's one of the best (if not THE best) multisport watches you can buy right now. If you've be...

  • Bright and sharp display,Plenty of sports tracking features,Solid battery life
  • Design a little uninspiring,Shorter battery life in always-on mode,Garmin Connect still a bit overwhelming
  • The Garmin Venu is a solid first showing for the company's first watch to make that desirable screen upgrade. It still excels with its sports tracking, and that typically great battery life is still there too.If you want something that offers a nice balan...

  • You can download up to 500 songs or Spotify, Dezzer and Amazon Music playlists and listen to them using Bluetooth headphones – so there's no need to take your smartphone with you when exercising, Waterproof and can be used when swimming, It supports Garmi
  • Lacks a voice assistant and many of the apps you'd expect from a smart watch
  • This is the ideal smartwatch for fitness fanatics. Its exercise metrics were commendable, so it lived up to its high-end price tag. Not only did it accurately monitor our steps taken and distance travelled each day, but it was simple to use with a bright...

  • Beautiful AMOLED screen, Still impressive 5-day battery life, New breathing and respiration tools, Accurate heart rate and GPS
  • Basic smartwatch features, Touchscreen isn't intuitive
  • The Garmin Venu is a big improvement on the Vivoactive 3 and the beautifully crisp and vibrant AMOLED display puts it well ahead of the Vivoactive 4. If you're looking for an attractive 24/7 watch to manage your overall wellness and help you hit fitness g...
