bought this a couple weeks ago. Very pricey and I definitely am not using it to its full potential, but I loved the battery life. Didn't think I'd use garmin pay as I always have my phone but it's nice for an emergency - though it doesn't support many of my banks which is disappointing. I love the customizability of the watch faces and your garmin status page so if that's a big thing to you, you won't be disappointed. I did not think I'd like the coached exercises, but they are pretty useful. I have not been able to use this for a hike or run, but for my purposes it's a bit extra/much since I don't do anymore super off grid hiking/trail running, and the golf features are fairly useless to me. But for something that offers looks, battery life, and a bit of durability, it's great. One note, the watch band options are disappointing. And honestly the main bell and whistle I got it for was the flashlight which has already been useful in random times. Will definitely need it for camping just as an emergency.

I have had the Venu 4 small for a few weeks. Absolutely love it. It has so much more than my Venu 3 had when it comes to running stats, recovery, & sleep stats. I love the size & it is a beautiful watch. Highly recommend this watch. It really has it all.

I just got the Venu 4 and I'm loving it!! I had the original Venu and absolutely loved it! Unfortunately, it doesn't hold a charge for more than 2 days. I did buy it in 2019 so, it held up very well in my opinion. They've made a lot of improvements compared to my old one and I'm super excited to get out and really put it to the test.

I bought this a month ago or so, but it suddenly keeps shutting off and then turns back on its own and i tap and tap the screen but it won't turn on. But other than that i actually love garmin, i had the vivoactive 6 before the venu4 and it would never shut off or anything.

This is the second Garmin I have owned. My prior Vivoactive lasted for 5 years and was very versatile. The design of the new Vivoactive lines look cheap to me so I purchased the Venu as it looked closest to my old one. All is good with the watch except that I've learned that the Venu (because it's a lifestyle line) does not support direct connection from the watch to fitness equipment like my treadmill. This exception is very disappointing as my prior watch connected seamlessly. I would have expected all Garmin watches would have this option. Choose carefully if you want to display Garmin data on your fitness equipment.

The touch screen is not a great feature. After I do a swim the watch face is wet and it will not scroll up to "save." So it is difficult to use. The Forerunner I had before was better. Also, there are way too many useless notifications. I don't need for it to tell me a lot of stuff I don't need to know. It's annoying.

I have had my venu 4 for 2 weeks so far. I upgraded from a venu 2P. The venu 2P was fine and still works great, but I'm very pleased with the upgrade. The silicone band doesn't make my skin break out like the old one. It's easy to navigate. It has many things to try including built in workouts. I surprised myself and was able to do one that required 2 15 minutes sets of keeping my heart rate at 148. I ran 2 miles that day! (Obviously I am a very slow runner!) It's comfortable and nice looking too. It tracks my naps! I still struggle with body battery but that's probably just me. It never gets charged very well. I have cats so they wake me up a lot. I love my new watch.

I've worn an Apple Watch ever since they came out. Have up graded many times. I'm severely hearing impaired, I rely on my watch to alert me when the door bell rings, when I get a text message, when any of my smart appliances send a notification. And I use it for a timer when I bake. On baking days the Apple Watch series 10 is insufficient. Well, hello Garmin Venu 4 41mm. Took a few minutes to adapt to the motions and buttons, once I did I couldn't be happier. The fitness tracker gives more metrics, such as my pace when walking. It t works seamlessly with my iPhone. The 10 day battery life is legit. I'd buy it again just for that! I am not a fan of silicone bands. Found a fabulous woven loop on line, easy and fast to swap between bands. The only thing it doesn't allow an iPhone user to do is answer text messages from the watch, something I rarely did so I don't miss that function at all.

I was so loyal to Fitbit but finally had it with them and moved to a Garmin Venu 4 41mm I love it. It is not a big ugly manly watch! I love that I can look at my golf courses and keep my score. It does so much- I still am learning and trying new things. Bonus- my watch face is a picture of my Pug.

I am a new runner and was looking for a watch that has advanced health features. I bought this watch a month ago based on the reviews and it certainly did not disappoint! This is my first Garmin watch and as a former apple watch user, I really cannot look back! This watch tracks my health features such as sleep, heart rate, HVR, training readiness, and continual progress. I love this watch and have nothing but good things to say about it. For those who are health conscious and want a watch that helps track your health, this one is it!
