Definitely the type of watch I needed for my active lifestyle without taking away from looking so good and fitting so well!

Great watch for fitness! It’s durable, has a long charge (around a week) and all of the heath features are awesome! It’s also comfortable and lightweight!

First off I wanna start by saying I was able to get Venu with tax for $160. That made a difference between the basic tracker that I normally get, Venu has big size screen easy to use watch the Garmin app is amazing. Been using it for three years now. I love how it gives me alerts to get moving or tell me that I’m doing good at moving. Keep up the pace. It’s kind of like a nice little motivator on my wrist. Overall, I’m pleased and I will buy another one and ordering on Best Buy having it shipped to my home was simple easy and I would do it again. Garmin being the first GPS company. I felt was a better option to go with as much as I love the Apple, Garmin is still better priced for my wallet. Give it a try if you’ve never had a Garmin I love the product.

My purchase experience was perfect. The Best Buy website described the watch perfectly and completely. I was aware of all of the features of the watch before I made my purchase decision. I purchased the watch through the Best Buy app, and the watch was delivered to me on time and in perfect condition.

I have been using this watch for almost 3 weeks now and I use it extensively. The interface is smooth, no lags till now. It auto-detects my workouts and with little caliberation I have made it count the exact distance on treadmill :D
Liked the features a lot. I am not a fan a smart watch so I ordered this one because Garmin's watches are precise for fitness freaks like me. It still has an option to sync with your phone to show notifications though!
But that would drain the battery more.

Great but a bit much for the “stay healthy” type. I don’t need to know my routes or speeds, for example, and would like to get credit for Zone 2 HR. Garmin only tracks 3 and 4 and you can’t customize. Very good for an athlete or someone training for an event. Too much and not quite right for those of us who want to stay active.

Fantastic GPS semi-smart watch. I've been using the watch for almost a year at this point and have no major issues. The battery life is amazing. If I don't use the GPS, I get about 5 to 6 days between charges. When I use the GPS, I'll still get about 4 days with an average of 1 hour of GPS usage each day.

This watch replaced a vivioactive 3, and was a huge step up. You can take a shower without the display reacting to the water, which is a nice change. The battery life is great.
The "body battery" feature is amazing. I don't know how it works, but it's very accurate. My battery will be at 20% on the watch, and it will match exactly how I feel.

Purchased for my husband for Christmas. So far he is pleased with the battery longevity and comfort. He prefers the square shape face and finds it easier to read without glasses. This replaces the three fitbits that only last a year.
Four stars is because first bike ride, the whole ride was not recorded. He DID wait for the gps to connect before taking off. Will have to see if it was user error or what.
Overall first impression is that it is a great item and will outlast the Fitbit products.
