Garmin’s proprietary software is attractive and easy to understand: widgets are arranged in a vertical list, accessed by swiping up or down from the home screen. It’s a display befitting a watch with smart ambitions, complete with a minimalist always-on option for official faces.

Watch faces and widgets are crisp, too, courtesy of a 390 x 390 pixel resolution that puts the Venu into the ring with the likes of the Fossil Gen 5, Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 3 and the Apple Watch Series 5. Blacks are deep, colors vivid and the extra brightness means the screen is readable even on the sunniest of runs. Sharp, bright and vibrant, it transforms the user experience when compared to the memory-in-pixel display technology used on other Garmin watches. Speaking of the screen, the Venu’s 1.2-inch AMOLED touchscreen is a sight to behold.
Customizable watch faces, widget list and home screen shortcut. 1.2-inch 390 x 390 AMOLED touchscreen display. Garmin Venu: Screen, interface and controls Some will find that restrictive, but the 43mm face offers a good balance between screen size and case dimensions, and it won’t dwarf smaller wrists – thanks in large part to the well-proportioned bezel around the 1.2-inch display. Unlike the Vivoactive 4, the Venu ships in just a single size. Wear it all day and there’s little risk of wrist ache. The metal ring around the case also adds a welcome hint of premium build quality, while the polymer construction ensures the Venu hits the scales at a featherweight 46.3g. You could easily wear the low-key Venu from gym to office without raising eyebrows: the 12.4mm depth means it sits slim beneath a sleeve, while the quick-release catch makes it easy to switch up your look with 20mm straps. It makes less of a style statement than the Apple Watch, but it’s also subtler than the bold frontage of the Suunto 7. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, provided you want a sporty smartwatch that flies under the radar. Besides a grooved stainless steel band around the bezel, the circular polymer body is otherwise pared-back, bordering on generic – and it’s not instantly distinguishable from the Vivoactive 4. Physically, the Garmin Venu is more of an understated tracker than a distinctive timepiece.
