Best in class.

I’ve tried the Fenix 8, 7 and 6, the Forerunner 965 and various other Garmin watches. I’ve also been using an Apple Watch Ultra 2 since October 2024. This gives you the full flagship Garmin fitness watch package with a squad face and bright touch screen display. I’ve been using it for a week and like it more than the Fenix 8 and Forerunner 965. Clear display easy to use touch screen. This is a multiport watch for those seeking a cleaning cooler watch esthetic.

I am loving this new Venu X1 it was a great upgrade from the Venu 2+. love the big screen can read it without my glasses. Only downside is the battery last about 5-6 days depending how many activities you record in a week.

Great screen

I bought the Venu 3 and then switched the the Venu X1 within about a week. I love the bigger face and brighter screen. It makes it super easy to navigate everything. The battery life difference is my only downside to this watch. Granted, the battery life is still about 5/6 days when I use it to run my HIIT workouts and doing the Garmin 10K plan, so it isnt terrible. It just isnt anything close to the Venu 3.

I’ve had this watch about a month it has a lot of good features that help me track my health and sleep. Still trying to figure out all it can do and am trying to pare some earbuds so I can listen to some music.
So far I am pleased with my purchase!

Venu X1 is Best Garmin Watch Ever
on March 7, 2026

The Venu X1 provides a comprehensive amount of tools I use to monitor and improve my health, fitness and training. The screen size and thin profile make it easy to see and use. I've been using Garmin watches and products for over 35 years.

Best one yet

this is my sixth Garmin watch and by far the best. I really can't think of but one reason to upgrade from here and that would be battery life. Don't get me wrong I am getting 4 to 5 days per charge so it's not bad at all but I get 6 to 7 days with my venu 3.

Awesome Watch

I have had my new Venu X1 for about a month. I love it. It has so many features and they are all easier to use than my previous Garmin watch. The data is easy to read and I love that I can change colors and watch faces.
