Garmin Venu 4

Our verdict: Garmin - On sale now. The Venu 4 is the fitness watch in this batch: 12 days of smartwatch battery, 20 hours of GPS-only use, a 1.2-inch or 1.4-inch AMOLED Always-On display, multi-band GNSS, an Elevate Gen 5 heart-rate sensor with ECG, a built-in LED flashlight, and a speaker and microphone, in 41mm or 45mm metal cases. The trade-off is the focus: it is built for fitness and battery life, not for the app and cellular features of the Apple Watch Series 12, and at $555.49 it costs more than that watch. At $555.49 at Amazon.com, checked 2026-11-04, it suits a buyer who wants multi-day battery and serious fitness tracking; a buyer who wants a full smartwatch with apps and cellular should look at the Apple Watch Series 12 or the Galaxy Watch 9 instead.
