In-Depth Review: dcra.in/VenuReview
Garmin Venu on Amazon ($50 off): amzn.to/31wQIAN (link helps support channel, thanks!!!)
Here's your complete user interface walk-through of the Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch. I dive through all the menus on almost every feature from basic activity tracking to PulseOx & Breathing to widgets. From running sport mode to guided yoga workouts, and from the new touchscreen AMOLED display to music and contactless NFC payments. Plus tons of Garmin Venu tips after three months of usage and posting my in-depth review.

Thanks for the video! What does the Bike Indoor setting do vs the regular setting? Without an additional sensor is there any value to the Bike Indoor setting?

Bike indoor simply shuts off GPS (which saves on battery, and on having a weird GPS dot on a map for going nowhere). You'll want speed/cadence sensors on your bike if you want to measure that indoors. Some smart trainers also broadcast that too.

Scroll right and up and down until you get all the other settings where you want them. Last scroll all the way back to the left until it asks you if you want to save.

I do a HIIT workout on a treadmill. It consists of a warmup, the workout, and the cool down. The workout has 8 segments of 2 minutes each with 30 seconds running at 7.6 mph with 90 seconds of walking at 2.5 mph. Is there a fitness tracking watch that can contend with that? I'd like to add jumping rope to this routine with 8 segments of 30 seconds of speed jump roping and 90 seconds of rest. Can any fitness tracking watch deal with that?

Garmin should allow developers to utilize an always on display that has more available screen resolution. The always on display that is available for most 3rd party apps is very limited. Many users would gladly sacrifice some Battery life for a more robust always on display. This Would make it a much closer Competitor to the Apple watch 5.

@PascalKolkman 3 года назад

While Garmin kind of invented the ANT+ wireless sensors communication protocol. It seems they did not yet enable native detailed ant+ Powermeter recording support, besides some limited connect iq apps in their expensive middle end Vivoactive en Venu watches. Allthough Polar is utilising the same strategy of limiting powermeter functionality for the higher end and not on the middle end range Polar ignite and fitness watch Polar unite. As if the Garmin & Polar sales department are thinking Sport people who buy a powermeter will have more money to spend on watches too ;-) That con for these watches is the biggest no-go for me. Garmins custom configerable custom Fitness strength workouts like Polar's animated Fitspark though is a small good Pro imo.

How well does it track weight lifting? There’s always latency issues of course with wrist based activity trackers but the Apple Watch actually does very well so curious how this one is.

@_samurai_744 4 года назад

Michael Lee According to the review of Vivoactive 4 by Techy Agent Garmin seems to have beaten Apple in terms of heart rate accuracy even for weight lifting type workouts. Also my previous device Forerunner 245 had also been fantastic after 3.40 update, heart rate accuracy and latency hugely improved. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2KgTelvlxic.html

@IAMMIKEO 4 года назад

Kadir Şen I seen that but I wanna get a second opinion but of course Techy Agent actually lifts weights so I should probably assume him to be correct.

@_samurai_744 4 года назад

Michael Lee I trust techy agent, actually he’s a bit apple fun :) But also some other details have an effect on heart rate measuring performance such as skin colour, hair density, blood flow quality etc. DcRainMaker doesn’t test it on weightlifting, you may wait for the review by Desfit.
