Zero regrets- over the moon

Wanted to move to a better looking watch that had many of the features I enjoyed on my Apple Watch.. home run, it does everything I used my apple for and so much more. Favorites include the daily health checks the sleep reminders and stats THE GOLF FEATURES !!! goodbye rang finder and the flashlight has already been a heroic feature for a door repair job in the late evening darkness. Please just keep adding more and more 22mm band replacements.. more leather for colors

My Favorite Garmin Yet—And I've Owned the Best

I've owned about five Garmin watches over the years, including the Fenix 8, Descent Mk3i, and Forerunner 970, and I can honestly say the Garmin Venu 4 (45mm) is my favorite overall. The first thing that stands out is the graphical interface. Garmin absolutely nailed the presentation on this watch. Everything is clean, modern, responsive, and incredibly easy to navigate. In my opinion, it's the best user interface Garmin has released to date. The Venu 4 offers an impressive amount of health and fitness metrics—just a step behind the Fenix and Forerunner flagship models—but still more than enough for the vast majority of users. The AMOLED display is gorgeous, battery life is excellent, and it feels like a true everyday smartwatch without sacrificing Garmin's outstanding fitness tracking. The only feature I wish it had is onboard maps with turn-by-turn navigation. If Garmin added mapping, this would easily be the best smartwatch in their entire lineup. Overall, Garmin knocked it out of the park with the Venu 4. It's comfortable, packed with features, and a pleasure to use every day. Without question, it's the best Garmin watch I've owned. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Stars

Just right!

I had a Fitbit for years. When it came time to get a new smart watch, I tried the Samsung version first. The smallest one was still too big and bulky. So, I got a Garmin. I love it! The size is perfect for a small wrist. It has all the features I need, and a whole lot fewer nonsense apps and features that I will never use. I like its sensible use of technology, without trying to be something it is not.

Diminished support for Lefties.

Garmin lost me. I needed to replace an aging Vivoactive 4 and ordered the Venu 4 45mm. I was excited when I finally came, but then super disappointed that they removed the ability to flip the orientation for left handed people wearing the watch on their right wrist. Options include "get used to wearing it on your left wrist" where it will get banged up or wear it on the right wrist and have to awkwardly reach across to the far side to reach the buttons. Why they removed the feature I don't know, but they are driving me to a competitor who does support left handed people better. What a shame because I really like the features and Garmin's reliability.

From Ultra 2 to Venu 4

I moved from the Apple Ultra 2 to the Venu 4. I am very impressed with the watch and of course the battery life is very - around 10-12 days depending on exercise. The display is crystal clear and the texting is much improved over old Garmin watches. I like that you can clear out all your notifications at one time. You can't respond to a text but I unusually did not respond on my Apple Watch and used my phone. I think the screens and buttons are easy to use - takes a little time to learn like the Apple Watch. The watch is very comfortable and I like the sleep stats. The sports options are endless and the work out screens are very visible in bright sun. It is a great cross between everyday watch and sports watch.

The Venu 4 helped me navigate to better health!

I can honestly say my Venu 4 has been a life saver! I initially got it to track my walks/hikes and I quickly discovered all of the other features that you can use to get in better health. When I got this in January my A1C was pre-diabetic, I had elevated cholesterol and blood pressure, high liver enzymes, and I was certainly way overweight. I've used Garmin's metrics to help me get diet and exercise and I've lost 49 lbs since mid January! I recently went to the DR and all of my out of normal conditions are all in the normal range now. Yes, I did a lot of work to get there, but my Garmin Venu 4 helped me navigate this journey and I don't think I could have done it in this short of time without it. Now My sleep is better, my energy has improved and I feel better than I have in years. I'm going to keep using the Garmin metrics to help me stay motivated making heathy choices. Thanks Garmin!

Great Smart Watch!

So happy with my purchase! I bought it to replace a Venu Sq. Love the fact that I can really swim with it on. I have gone through so many other watch brands because the water has ruined them, not the case with this one. My least favorite thing is the battery life for me. For what I want to see on the face of my watch, I only get a few days battery life. On the plus side though, there are options to get 11 days of battery life, so that is a good thing. My Venu Sq. just stopped syncing with my phone, no other issues, it lasted about 4 years. It too was great for water activity. I definitely think Garmin is a great product, especially for the length of time it lasts, the reason for my second purchase.

What an Upgrade!

Upgraded from the Venu 2 Plus and noticed the difference within the first few days. I use mine generally for daily health reads and workouts, and it's everything I need. Also really appreciate the choice of the silicon and leather bands. Great to be able to switch between casual and a bit more formal.
