Garman has announced a formal battle against Apple with the launch of Garman Venu X1, with a square -shaped well -tracking powerhouse with a huge emulated screen, thin titanium case and several high -end smart watch bulls and whistles. Recently. , It looks like an Apple Watch Ultra 2 with similar fast -price tags to match: 99 799.
Full Discovery: I still have to get Vano X1 on my wrist – my partner Nick has – but only based on spectacle and early impression, Garman’s new sports smart watch has a lot to do. Will this Apple Watch Ultra 2 will be enough to attract users? It can be!
As someone who reviews the smart watch for a living, I raise many questions from people that they consider digging their Apple Watch for something new.

Although their biggest Apple Watch complaint is about battery life… or its lack, advanced fitness tracking and lack of training tools are another criticism that I hear a lot. The lack of support for, and the types of exercise.

Although the Garman watches do not have apps and smart features near the third party found on the best models of Apple Watch, they usually talk about the long lifespan of the battery, holistic tracking reliability and high -end exercise features. This brand also supports more than a hundred exercise types, including everything from disk golf to boxing.
Prior to X1, Garman had already had a solid alternative with Garman Watch Series 10 with Garman Venu 3, and the Garman Vivitative Series with Apple Watch SE (2022). Now, the Kansas -based brand is a potentially capable model containing the premiere flagship of Capetino.
Keeping in mind, here are the five biggest things that Garman Venu X1 is going for it, as well as three things that can potentially prevent it from competing with Apple Watch Ultra -2.
1. Giant AMOLED Screen

Not only is Garman’s first high -end smart watch with a square face, but also the screen, which extends from Bezel Edge to Bezel Edge, is the brand’s largest brand. In fact, this is slightly larger than the Apple Watch Ultra 2 display.
The MAX of the guaranteed devices does not provide maximum brightness data, but 2,000 nuts are a potential condition. It is not as bright as 3,000 NIT Max brightness data of Ultra 2, but it is still impressive and it means that the X1 will also appear in very bright light.
2. Super thin case

Only 7.9 mm, it is also the thinly thin smart watch case of Garman to date. Compare this in depth of the Apple Watch Ultra 2’s 14.4 mm case, and suddenly it feels straightforward.
Fortunately, despite the thin case, my colleague Nick has reported that it feels anything on the wrist. On a similar note, when it comes to screen protection, sapphire crystal offers peace of mind.
By the way, the thickness is not as thin as the latest Apple Watch Series 10, even the latest Apple Watch Series 10.
3. Garman’s Best Holistic Tracking Tech
For this price, Garman Venu X1 should play Garman’s latest and largest haltic sensor tech. Thankfully, this happens, which means that you are getting so reliable (if not high) to the heart rate data from X1.
Garman’s sleep tracking insights are also excellent in buzz, and more detailed and viable than Apple, Imho. In addition, Garman’s exercise training and recovery tools blow up the water. And this is not an opinion. This is a fact.

4. Led to the flashlight of the ‘torch’ on the ship
Like Garman Jabali 3, the Belt in LED flashlight in Sporty, New Venu X1, in which you will not find any Apple Watch. In the upper part of the case, the Nifty plane is adjusted output in the ‘torch’ and can be set in white or red light.
Finding items in a dark bedroom without awakening the dog’s walking and awakening the gold partner, this is a feature I really wish to tear up Apple (and Google and Samsung, etc.) and add to your devices.
5. Speaker and microphone in the built

The best Garman watches are not famous for their smart features. Although most of the high -end Garmen offer the basics, such as ship music storage, NFC payment and mirroring smartphone reports, which are the end of the list.
Veno X1 offers a little more. This is not the Garman’s first smart watch that has a microphone and speaker, but this is a good addition to those who want to make phone calls from the wrist, as you will do with the Apple Watch Ultra 2.
Of course, the Garman does not offer cellular contacts on any smart watches of the brand, so you will need to take a nearby pairing phone to make maximum mic and speaker.
Where the Veno X1 Falls Short vs Apple Watch Ultra 2

Although there is a lot for this against Apple Watch Ultra 2 in Garman Venu X1, battery life is an area that does not affect. Certainly, in the Smart Watch format, you can use for eight days, but it only falls for two days when using the screen format.
And when you use GPS to track an activity, battery life is only 14 hours. In comparison, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 is good for about 36 36 hours in the Smart Watch mode (72 hours in low power mode) always with on -display and 12 hours when using GPS to track an activity.
Another negative aspect of Venu X1 compared to Ultra 2 is that the former does not have multi -band GPS. The latter. The advantage of the multi -band is better reliable, especially in areas where the sky can be interrupted.
Finally, Garman Wenny X1 has only 50 meters of water resistance. This is enough for a short period of swimming on the surface, but nothing more. Ultra 2, in the meantime, offers 100 meters of water resistance and is suitable for scuba diving.
