If you’re a fan of bold smartwatches, Garmin just unveiled its biggest watch ever.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Garmin announced its newest smartwatch Thursday<\/a>, the Venu X1. What’s immediately noticeable about the Venu X1 is the size. It has a large, rectangular face (Garmin said its biggest) and an extremely thin design. It’s a watch that’s easy to see, but it doesn’t look overpowering or like it’s too heavy to wear.<\/p>\n The press release about the watch details several more design features, including the 2-inch screen, a sapphire lens (scratch-resistant for outdoor activities), a titanium caseback, and an 8mm case.\u00a0<\/p>\n Also: My new favorite Garmin watch offers flagship features at an affordable price point<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n The Venu X1 will come in two colorways, black and moss, and have a built-in LED flashlight, speaker, and mic. It will have access to more than 100 sports apps, mapping, the ability to make and take calls, a sleep coach, and the wealth of fitness and health information Garmin’s devices are known for.<\/p>\n Garmin said the watch will have up to 8 days of battery life in smartwatch mode. That will be less depending on how much you use tracking features and if you have the always-on screen enabled, but from several early online reviews I’ve seen, it still seems to be about two days.<\/p>\n The Venu X1 has a suggested retail price of $799.99 and will be available to order<\/a> on June 18. For comparison, other fitness tracking watches like the Garmin Venu 3S, the Apple Watch Series 10<\/a>, and the Pixel Watch 3<\/a> are all in the $300 to $400 range.\u00a0<\/p>\n
