I upgraded from the Venu (1) and am very pleased with all the new features! I am a marathon runner but like to have a smartwatch that I can wear to work without it screaming “I’m a running watch!” The Venu 4 checks both of those boxes for me. I also bought nylon wrist straps and prefer wearing those for comfort over the silicone ones that can irritate my skin.
I love this watch. I have had two Galaxy watches and they don't compare to this. I am still learning all the features. Just having a battery that lasts so long is a plus.
Bought a Venu 4 ( I've owned several Garmin watches previously). I went to set it up, and all went well until it required a system update. Now stuck in a perpetual loop of turning on and showing the start up screen and watch face for seven seconds before shutting down and then restarting. No amount of fixes has solved the problem, so my watch will be going back.
I like the watch and the features but I was only able to charge it once when I first got it before the charging cable connected with a wiggle and it won’t charge at all. Not even a week old and I had to buy another charging cable.
I love this watch!!! It was a little difficult to figure out how to use all the features and I’m still learning. I think the website and manuals could be more user friendly for watch-illiterate folks like me. But the watch itself is 5 stars!!
