I had this watch and just recently sold it. It is so thick on the wrist. Looked like a hockey puck sitting on my wrist. It was absolutely huge.

I’ve had all kinds of Garmin watches and the Venu 4 is my favorite. It’s a great combination of a touch screen watch with superior training features. I have the 45mm and it’s lightweight and very comf

the Venu 4 (and Garmin devices in general) is a different type of device than you're used to.

I went into my Venu 4 (had it just 6 days so far) with different expectations (I didn’t expect it to be like an AW) and I absolutely LOVE it.
r/GarminWatchesneutral1
I was looking into the venu 4 but have yet to see an actual watch on display in the store to see the display/screen responsiveness etc. I really want to get more active this year and would really appr

Aww man, I keep going back and forth on which one to get. Venu 4 or AW S11.
r/GarminWatchespositive1
I LOVE my Venu 4. Part of that is discovering the features that I’m not using! No hand holding, no easy onboarding. It’s fun for me to explore features and watch videos. It’s also really not intuitive

The reason the watch has such a great battery life comes a the cost of a smooth and vivid UI. ... the venu4 is a great fitness watch with *some* smart features.

I just got a Venu 4. The sleep tracking seems pretty good. The only thing I see is that I wake up at night more than it detects, the watch will still track this as light sleep. The silicone band feels

I ended up with the Venu 4 because the features made the most sense to me but I wish I felt more enthusiastic about it. A part of me is still considering selling it and going back to one of the other

Also get the venu 4 since it just came out.
r/GarminWatchespositive1
I just picked up a Venu4 earlier this week and find the sleep data is fairly accurate so far. Registers when I'm moving around wildly, when I wake up etc. Battery life so far is great; out of the box
r/GarminWatchespositive1
So I would go for the Venu 4. ... The Venu 4 also has a flashlight, which you'll love. The flashlight alone would be reason enough for me to choose the Venu 4 over the Venu 3s. Plus, the Venu 4 comes
