It's an awesome alternative to any apple watch while wanting to stay in the garmin family. I'm coming from a vivoactive 5, and it's a solid upgrade. The flashlight is incredinly useful. Still trying to find the right watch face for me, but it's comfortable and easy to use.

Long battery life, slick look. Just frustrated trying to sync Amazon prime music.

Poor battery life and annoying messages.

Overall a good watch. The battery life is very poor and the “good morning my name” and “good evening my name” twice a day is quite annoying. Maybe there is a way to shut them off but I can’t figure it out.

The X1 is so much better than the Venu SQ I have had for over three years. What an amazing watch and so easy to use. Sync is way faster and so many more options. Way to go GARMIN!!

Watch is excellent for those who are active and love to get outdoors frequently. Battery life lasts about a week. GPS accuracy is excellent.

The missing piece I needed!!

The Venu X1 has far exceeded my expectations so far. Was using an Apple watch prior and really liked it so was nervous to make the switch. All notifications come through the same as Apple watch, the battery life is 10x an Apple Watch (now I can get reliable sleep data because I don’t need to charge every night). Fits the same and aesthetically similar but the Garmin watch is far superior in all aspects. Absolutely thrilled with my purchase

Venu X1

This is a great watch coming from Apple this does everything as good or better. If I could respond to texts like android users can this would be a home run. That's why I rated it at 4 stars.

I’ve owned a few Garmin watches and this is the best and easiest to use. Love it and fits and looks great too. I want to add another band and that’s all.
