Why did I buy this watch? Read more to find out..
on April 2, 2026
Posted by: johnobie2468
I was really hesitant to pull the trigger on this. I've been a Garmin user since the old school giant orange and gray "computer" that was strapped to my wrist. I had a 255 with music and there was nothing wrong with it, but as you know, I wanted to upgrade because, why not? I did a ton of research and used AI to compare the venu x1 to the apple Ultra 2 or 3? Anyway, I stayed loyal (the garmin app is also amazing) and chose this watch. I love it!!! I l love how slim it is, I don't even feel like I'm wearing it. I love the size and brightness of the screen, I love the watch face options, I love love love it. One thing that I do find annoying though, since the screen is a touch screen, I'll be 4 hours into a run and sweating like crazy, sometimes, the screen with change because that sweat is dripping on it etc. other than that...it's a 10/10 for everything it does. Battery life was also a deciding factor, I like how it will show you the # of days that it has left, that's very helpful.

Simple to use

Excellent graphics and tracking in a nice relatively thin case. Easy to use. Although I liked it, I replaced a Fenix 7 Pro Solar Sapphire due to its thick case which was difficult to wear with long sleeved shirts.

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.

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.

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.

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!
