Review on Garmin Venu: Gold GPS Smartwatch with Bright Touchscreen Display, Music, Body Energy Monitoring, Animated Workouts, Pulse Ox Sensor and More – Black Band by Lang Lang Buana ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Average quality, not an outstanding product.

I bought a watch in the aliexpress store. Pleasantly surprised by its impeccable fit, no other watch sat on the hand as well as this one. Next came the introduction to the OS. The watch is more sports than everyday, so everything does not look as beautiful as on the same apple / Samsung watch. But everything is very intuitive and understandable. That's where the positives ended. The first disappointment was how the watch works during sports. When jogging on the track, the watch overestimated the performance by ≈ 20% and! did not offer calibration! I contacted support, they could not suggest anything about the calibration, they only sent excerpts from the instructions, which I had already studied. Charging became the second disappointment. It is surprising that in hours for 30k there is not even magnetic charging (I don’t even dream of wireless). I agree that this is not a necessary feature for a sports watch, but competitors have long acquired this feature. Finally, the final disappointment was the reliability of the watch. 4 days after the purchase, the back button began to play and the back button was pressed badly. After walking for a couple of days and making sure that the problem does not go away, I went to the guarantee. After 3 weeks I got the result: a factory defect, the watch cannot be restored. This is where my acquaintance with watches ended; there was no replacement in the store and they offered to wait for it for a long time, so I decided to return the watch. In conclusion, I want to say that even with their minuses, I liked them. But a factory marriage intervened, which completely spoiled the impression of the purchase.

Pros
  • Good fit, functionality.
Cons
  • Charger. Strongly overestimate the data on the treadmill. Unreliable.
