- Garmin revealed the Garmin Venu X1, a new Surprise Premium smartwatch
- It costs $ 799.99 / £ 679.99 / $ 1,499
- Its 2 -inch square screen is larger than the Apple Watch Ultra 2 – but could last up to 8 days (vs 36 hours of the Apple Watch)
Surprise! Garmin revealed the Garmin Venu X1, an “ultrahin” smartwatch with a massive 2 -inch amoled display and up to eight days of battery life.
The Garmin Venu X1 seems to be an Apple Watch Ultra 2 competitor, with an even larger screen (the Ultra are 1.9 inches). This giant and square AMOLED screen is defined to present color cards to make sure you can easily navigate adventures, personalized watch faces and what seems to be a redesigned interface.
An on-board speaker and a microphone table allows you to take calls for sale when connected to your phone, and to use simple voice commands such as “defining a timer” or “starting an activity in progress” even outside the line.
The new model contains 32 GB of internal memory, presumably for watch music, and the cardiac frequency frequency sensor updated Garmin, more recently used on the Garmin Forerunner 570 and 970. It has the LED pocket of Garmin on board, a titanium, and the Garmin Sapphire window is resting in Sapphire glass.

It is certainly a ready watch for large spaces, while incorporating lifestyle elements such as these voice commands and more police sizes, which makes notifications much easier to receive and navigate on this giant screen.
The Garmin series has always been aimed at riding the line between a “ real ” Smartwatch extension for your phone and the Garmin’s classic dedicated fitness companion, and did it admirably in the past: the Garmin Venu 3 was classified “ better for most people ” in our best list of Garmin watches for 2025. SQ before him.
As you can expect from a Garmin Premium GPS watch, the Garmin Venu X1 is not cheap, costing $ 799.99 / £ 679.99 $ 1,499 to. Perhaps not entirely by coincidence, this is just around the price of the Apple Watch Ultra 2.
It is now available in two colors, black and foam, and includes a band of 24mm Garmin ComfortFit nylon.
