I've been using it for 2 weeks now, and was in between the Venu 4 (45 mm) and Vivo active due to how feature packed it is. I love the AMOLED display and the battery life (my first charge lasted 8 days, with 10% remaining). Smart alarm clock makes it so that I don't wake up anyone else and I don't feel groggy when it goes off. You can control what apps give you notifications so it's not constantly going off. You can also pair your headphones directly to the watch so you don't have to take your phone on a walk and you can still listen to saved music on it. Durability is what I'll keep an eye out for - I previously had a Fitbit Versa 4, and the screen just popped off after 2 years of wearing it. Pet peeves: - Move alerts go off, regardless of what my day was like. If I've already reached my step goal, been active majority of the day, I don't need a move alert going off as I'm eating dinner and watching TV for an hour. - "Free" workout mode always counts as sets/rest - I don't like this for weight training, it feels odd to click the "set" button every time I'm done, and then reset rest timer by pressing it again Hope these improve over time! - Garmin Pay compatibility is limited (looking at you Capital One!).

I love the accurate gps. However the sleep detection is inadequate. I work off shifts and sleep during the day 3-4 days a week. It does not recognize my 7-8 hrs of sleep or naps which is disappointing. My Fitbit always picked up sleep whenever it was.

Absolutely. Here's a more natural, first-person version that sounds like a genuine customer review rather than an advertisement: Really Impressed with the Garmin Venu 4 I've been very impressed with my Garmin Venu 4. From the moment I started using it, I could tell it was a quality watch. It looks great, feels comfortable on my wrist, and gives me the information I need without being overwhelming. What I really like is how it helps me stay accountable with my activity, workouts, sleep, and overall wellness. The battery life is excellent, and I love having so many useful features right on my wrist. For me, the Venu 4 is the perfect balance of fitness, health, technology, and everyday style. It has quickly become something I wear every day. Very happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend the Garmin Venu 4 to anyone looking for a dependable, feature-packed smartwatch.

It was pretty annoying yesterday that my watch crashed and totally reset deleting my apps and my paid watch faces there should be a memory on your phone holding your paid apps and watch faces so that when you do run into this problem you don't have to go and rebuy things you already paid for I've had many different kinds of smart watches over the years I've never had this issue of it crashing and resetting to new settings I had to reset up the whole watch again

I love my new Garmin! The battery life alone is worth the purchase price. The watch looks really nice as well. I can track workouts and get data that I'll actually use. The community aspect is a great way to share and get ideas. I LOVE my Garmin!!!!!

I bought the venu 4 to monitor my heart rate continuously and do an ECG when desired. Found out it can display my heart beat on Concept2 Bike and Rower. Really like all the data the smartwatch provides

It's been 2 weeks and so far I love it! Easy to use, cool features. Can't wait for the 3 weeks mark so it really tracks my sleep pattern. What would make this even cooler is if some how it tracked your blood pressure!

I am really enjoying this smart watch. I like how light this is compared to other smart watches, it has a few less buttons from other Garmin watches, but that is easy to get used to. You get a lot of the same utilities as the other garmin devices (I went from a 265s). Hands down I love the battery life on this (about 12 days)and charging it is extremely fast.

I've had my watch for not quite a month yet and I love it. The activity options seem endless. Even the extra things like being able to track the moon phases is cool. I do a lot of stuff in the woods so the compass is really helpful. I was actually looking for a watch for work but wanted something with a little more spunk and this one is it! The battery life is really what sold me though with how long it lasts.

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!
