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...

Beautiful, but too big for my wrist

Loved the screen and weight--truly phenomenal. Square titanium back hit my wrist bone where the round Epix Pro did not. Painful to wear when running and cycling. Also, while I loved the thinness, it's so thin, the two available buttons are difficult to press when engaged in an activity (running, cycling). Had to return.

Overall great watch!

This product does it all! The screen is large so it is easy to see and it tracks my sleep and daily activities so well!

Great watch with a few bugs.

I love this watch, and the weight, screen size, and battery life are truly amazing. I came from a Descent Mk3i, so the change in size and weight is the biggest difference in my eyes. The screen is responsive and not too complicated to figure out. It only has two buttons, which makes it simple to operate, and I figured it out without going through the manual. The downsid...

Venu x1 feels great

I bought this a month ago because of the bigger screen. I’m old and my vision up close is getting more difficult. This is a game changer as I can now read the numbers! Also so much lighter. I love my fénix 7pro solar however it feels like im running with a brick. This is so light don’t even notice. Battery life short, however haven’t had any issues. Love it

Love it. Great Watch.

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.

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.

Exceptional smartwatch

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!!

Excellent watch! Great for all outdoor activities!

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 wat...

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.

So Far Great Upgrade

I upgraded from the Instinct Solar 1 for this watch. Traded battery life for my functions and touch screen.

My only real complaint is there is no where to explain all the icons on the default watch face or instructions on how to modify "THIS FACE" if at all possible.

Great readability for people with prebyopia

I changed my Fenix 8 47mm OLED for the Venu X1 hoping it´s brightness and screen size would impact positively the readability of the running data screens as my presbyopia was making it difficult and it started being a risk to see data while running on uneven terrain. Gains were enormous, the screen is not only bigger but brighter and I can read my data screens without e...

Great Watch!

I had a Garmin Venu 3 which was a great watch! I was looking for an upgrad. I have always been partial to square faced watches. The Venu X1 was perfect! It has most of the features the Venu 3 has plus some others! A large, clear and bright display!!! I was a little concerned about the battery life, but it's only a little shorter. I can still get through a full week of r...
