Garmin Venu review: Fitness expertise with many pixels left to fill

The $399 Garmin Venu is the first of the company's wearables to have an AMOLED display akin to that on the Apple Watch and some WearOS devices While it's an extension of the Vivoactive family, the Venu injects a premium feel that Garmin will clearly use to attract those who are drawn to competitors like the Apple Watch Just because the Venu looks lovely doesn't mean Garmin has found ways to use that pretty panel to the best of its abilities.

The Venu isn't heavy on my wrist at 46.3 grams, and anyone who has familiarity with Garmin devices will know how to use it The Venu likely has the longest battery life of any smartwatch with an AMOLED display; Garmin estimates it will get up to five days in smartwatch mode, but I expect it could be more than that if you disable always-on display mode I've focused so much on the display in this review because the Venu does everything that the Garmin Vivoactive 4s does.

The most important thing about the Garmin Venu is that it exists-Garmin finally made a wearable with an AMOLED display that can stand up to other all-purpose smartwatches. . Source
