I have had a Garmin forerunner 15 for years never let me down. I decided to update my watch your video was excellent I just needed to know the basics not a 30-minute discussion of its finer points. I will watch more comprehensive videos once I have used the watch for a few days. Thank you for taking the time to do this video.

I've been waiting for this. 🙌

Great review. I just upgraded from a Fitbit to the Vivoactive 4s. Love the display of the Venu but I have small wrists and was worried it would to big of a watch. Love the Vivoactive had a small option! I have really been loving the Garmin app and I am very happy I went with a Garmin

Honestly I think the Venu SQ is a direct competition and budget friendly option to the FitBit Versa line and having had both I think the Venu SQ hands down is the better watch. You can get the Venu SQ without music for only $199. Hard to beat that price with all the Garmin features! Garmin needed a line in this price range.

Awesome video! Is the heartrate monitor accurate when working out? I have the sense and am so disappointed wish I would of seen your review on that before I purchased.

Fantastic videos!!

Looks and design wise, is the venu like a chunky big watch like most watches or is it fairly small

Perhaps some testing with activities, stats and graphs as a comparison would give more depth in your review.

How does the screen, at the time of training, stay fixed, or do you have to keep turning your wrist?

Which one is better for strength training?

Great video! Thank you for all this great information! I am considering getting the SQ for my wife but I really wish it had rhe ambled display. For me thats rhe real dealbreaker. She doesn't like the round watches too much. Im a huge garmin fan so I was really hoping to find one that she likes! Note- You can definitely get better battery on them both by making slight changes in your settings. My vivoactive 4 will range from 2 to 9 days depending on how I have it set. With pulse ox on, Back light turned up, gestures on Bluetooth connected at all times, its like a day and a half maybe lol. But I only connect my watxh to my ohoen when I need to, and keep everything off unless I need rhem because I value battery life over smart features.

Hi Sammy! I’m currently deciding between these two. My deciding factor is the screen size. On paper, the SQ is larger but it looks so small compared to the Venu. How has your experience been with these two screens? I want a screen that I can transition a little more comfortably since I’m coming from an AW5 and a Sense. Your input would be SUPER appreciated 👍

Great video 👍👍👍👍👍

Hey, great review! The Venu is going to be my next watch, I currently have a Fitbit. Do you find the Garmin app as user friendly as the Fitbit app? Also, do you find the Venu easy to navigate and set up?

Hi Sammy, do you have an issue with garmin venu sq where the name of device is not showing on strava result?

Venu or Galaxy watch 3?? 🤔

Hi! I have read somewhere that the venu has some firmware problems. Did you experience anything wrong with the watch? I am looking for a watch for myswlf, and I will get a garminm but I am torn which one... venu, venu sq( 50$ less) or the vivoactive 3 (new, for 100$!). Any suggestions? regards

I'm considering getting the Garmin Vivoactive 4.

i dont get it. whjats the difference between those 2 watches??

I've never owned a Garmin. I'm generally an Apple person, but I'm drawn to the Garmin. Do you know if iMessage notifications show up? Also, I've read the Venu has ECG but nobody is talking about this feature. Any experience?

I love the concern for our time. All these super busy people on here on youtube who need to get going... to watch the cat videos.

Hi. You have a very informative video. Just want to ask if the venu can detect afib heart issue?

I saw that you recomand also the vivoactive 4s. Between vivoactive 4s and venu sq which feels and looks lighter and smaller?

Hi, I am new to your channel and thanks for your videos. I am on a similar journey as you, searching for the best smart/health watch for my needs. I’ve got more serious into fitness over the past two years, specifically cycling. I currently use an Apple Watch series 4 however I am finding very few cyclists use the Apple Watch. It seems the cycling community almost exclusively uses Garmin products. Cycling & running are my main sports. I use an iPhone for my job so Apple Watch was a a good fit. What is you opinion of the Apple Watch? Garmin is good?

You have yet to explain my comments on your previous videos... You promoting Garmin while their app server frequently being hacked. Can you explain how safe to use their products that being synchronise to the Garmin Connect app's server?

Good Review 👍👍 habe got the Venu SQ an accident/incident detektion?

Torn between the garmin venu and galaxy active 2 for Christmas what is they main differences?

I know this might be an odd question, but do you know your wrist circumference? They look good on you, but I'm trying to work out whether either of these would look too big on me.

Do you have the brightness up on the Venu sq? And you don’t have to have the screen always on.

I was hoping you'd talk about features and maybe add some graphics instead of having us staring at the boxes.. But hey, wadda I know? "Those that can, teach; those that can't, criticize" lol. Thanks for the upload.

I'm interested to know - have you found it to be an issue when you are running to have the image on your watch reappear? The only thing I'm hesitant about it the fact the display disappears. Not a huge problem, unless it doesn't want to pop back up when I need to look at my stats.

If you have only two choices which one do you prefer ?

I have the venu sq no music version , and have also with leather band , it looks very good with leather band , I have also fitbit versa 2 and charge 4. The Garmin venue sq is definitely better than the fitbit versa 2 ( don’t know about the 3 and sense ) , the charge 4 has gps and is very good , I think the charge is the best of Fitbit, but Garmin I can use my polar h10 band for much better heartrate.

Apesar de já ter há alguns anos no Brasil a Garmin Pay não tem muitos bancos associados, aliás só tem um o btg pactual... Entrei em contato com a Garmin e oque recomendaram foi que nós clientes entremos em contato com nossos bancos pelos canais de atendimento pedindo para que nos notem... Eu já fiz isso no Nubank e me responderam dizendo que estão considerando, qnto maid gente fizer mais rápido processo pode ocorrer... Vamos lá galera vamos fazer nossa parte.... Falem com seus bancos, especialmente Nubank

I’m just now watching it and I’m going to buy the venu and it is on sell for 260

Which one is better vivoactive 4 or Venu?

My husband just purchased the Garmin Venu Sq and I'm not loving it at all. I'm coming from an Active 2 watch. This Garmin Sq feels cheap, the display isn't good, and I hate the loud vibration. I feel bad because it was a gift but I'm not loving it at all. I personally loved my Samsung watch it just didn't hold up long even though it says u can wear it in water.

I really want to buy the venu, I love the anoled display and I live in Sweden where it is always cold and dark so I do not really need the transflective display. Many reviewers have said that garmin watches are very accurate and I have the money for it. But I am a fucking woman with a small wrist and I think the venu will look to big on me, and bulky, and just be heavy. I do not know what to do. I have googled on pictures of the venu on woman’s wrist and it does look big and bulky. I am so sad because the venu is everything I want in a fitness/smart watch.... What should I do?

I like the content, but the incessant music loop in the background is distracting.

The Venu is beautiful... But pricey.

Понимать бы о чём он говорит...

I brought a cheap Chinese smartwatch. After two months it stopped. Give them a tick they did refund my money after I sent them a video of my watch not working? I brought a better Chinese smartwatch one day I thought I can smell something burning I went to the place I was charging my smartwatch the power lead was about to melt. I contacted them to buy a new power cable I could not find one on their site. I never heard from them again. Both watches had a couple of bugs in the software that were never fixed. I got the opinion they produced a watch wrote the software then moved onto the next model and never updated the software. I learnt my lesson and paid 5 times as much for a Garmin Venu it has never faulted the software has been updated the manual is actually in real English not Chinlish. The point is if you want to have the support and a quality product you have to pay for it. In my case this my second Garmin sportswatch I have had my Forerunner 15 for years it is still going strong. I have a footpod and a chest strap the Venu hooked upto both as soon as I set up the GPS. Bottom line is guys you get what you pay for lessons learnt.
