I purchased this watch about 3 weeks ago. It is a super nice watch. It has alot that it can do and I am still learning it but so far it has exceeded my expectations.
I love my new Garmin watch. The running aspect of the watch is great. The GPS syncs fast. I am off and running. Golf app is easy to use once the course is downloaded. Easy to keep score while playing. I don’t like the strength training feature. I doesn’t record any calories burn. I tried switch to something similar to strength training doesn’t record either. It’s not to big of a deal. If I want to hit the set button every time I am sure it would work better. I forget when I am lifting weights. I love the classic look of the watch. The touchscreen is great much easier to use than recent Garmin’s that where just buttons.
Have had the watch for about a month. Replaced my Venu 3. The Venu 4 has a much longer battery life as well as additional features and fitness tracking. Hiking mode includes compass directions which are helpful
This is the second Garmin I have owned. My prior Vivoactive lasted for 5 years and was very versatile. The design of the new Vivoactive lines look cheap to me so I purchased the Venu as it looked closest to my old one. All is good with the watch except that I’ve learned that the Venu (because it’s a lifestyle line) does not support direct connection from the watch to fitness equipment like my treadmill. This exception is very disappointing as my prior watch connected seamlessly. I would have expected all Garmin watches would have this option. Choose carefully if you want to display Garmin data on your fitness equipment.
I bought this a month ago or so, but it suddenly keeps shutting off and then turns back on its own and i tap and tap the screen but it won’t turn on. But other than that i actually love garmin, i had the vivoactive 6 before the venu4 and it would never shut off or anything.
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!
