I was a lifelong Fitbit user, but after Google shifted the focus more toward smartwatches, I started looking for a true fitness watch. After a lot of research, I decided on the Venu 4. I'll admit I hesitated because of the price, but once I learned that Garmin includes so many features without locking them behind a paid subscription, it made the decision much easier. Between that and all of the health and fitness metrics the watch offers, it has been worth every penny. I've been wearing my Venu 4 for almost three weeks, and I absolutely love it. It's incredibly customizable, from the watch face and data fields to the app itself, and while there is a bit of a learning curve, it's well worth taking the time to get familiar with everything. The battery life has been fantastic, the health insights have been incredibly useful, and I can already tell this watch is going to be with me for years. Garmin has definitely gained a lifelong customer.

My gone-too-soon Venu2s needed replacement. I tried the new Galaxy watch and returned it posthaste - terrible battery performance. I bought the Venu4 45mm and am very pleased with it. The promised long time between battery charges is sound and welcome. The surprise was the ability to change fonts making it easier to read messages and notifications. A lot of thought has gone into the design and engineering.

I upgraded from the Venu (1) and am very pleased with all the new features! I am a marathon runner but like to have a smartwatch that I can wear to work without it screaming “I'm a running watch!” The Venu 4 checks both of those boxes for me. I also bought nylon wrist straps and prefer wearing those for comfort over the silicone ones that can irritate my skin.

Love this watch. I have small wrists and this doesn't feel too large or thick. It replaced my Music 645 that I've used for 6 + years. It's a great replacement for it. I love the touch screen and all the futures I now have. It's been great for running on the road and treadmill as well as hikes. The company was easy to work with!

Finally made the move over from Apple and I cannot be happier. The design is fantastic, but more importantly, the activity and sleep tracking is great. Still figuring things out, but I'm loving it and the battery life itself almost made the upgrade completely worth it.

I received this on Sept 9, charged it, took it off charger at about 7pm, and here I am 14 days later the watch still says I have 2 days left at 11% battery life. The watch screen is great, features are exceptional. Am very happy with my purchase.

Love the watch as far as looks but it is not treadmill friendly!!! I have to record my walks as runs which throws off all the stats making them pointless. Which is the reason I got it!! I was trying to get away from Apple.

I am really happy I bought this. I had a Garmin and decided to try a different brand. It just didn't measure up. I sent it back and bought this watch.

Game changer! I went from an Apple watch to the Venu 4 and I'm so happy I did. Battery is not an issue anymore and all the data helps me so much. I only wish I could answer texts on my watch.

I'm so happy for all the features. My only concern is the band , it isn't wide as the pervious version . Also for the price , it should has at least a second band
