Garmin has never had much trouble making wearables for runners, hikers and cyclists. Its Forerunner and Fenix lines are the go-to choice for anyone who takes their training seriously. The trickier challenge has always been making something that appeals to people who also want a watch that doesn't scream "fitness fanatic!" every time they glance at their wrist.
That's where the Venu line comes in. It's Garmin's attempt at a lifestyle smartwatch, one that blends the brand's deep fitness and health tracking with a design that sits more comfortably alongside an Apple Watch or Samsung Galaxy Watch.
