With the design and aesthetic of some smartwatches, you can actually only ever wear them when you’re exercising. But what if you want a watch that looks equally great when running as it does at work? Well then, let me introduce you to the Garmin Venu at Amazon for \u00a3379.05 (was \u00a3469.99)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Venu 4 is our top pick of the best Garmin watches<\/a> in the world right now. With excellent performance across lifestyle and exercise, this feature-rich smartwatch is an excellent fitness-focused alternative to the Apple Watch<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With over \u00a390 taken off the list price, this watch has never been more affordable. The deal ends on May 5 or while promotional stock lasts, but with the deal selling fast, I wouldn’t suggest hanging around too long.<\/p>\n

Today’s best Garmin Venu 4\u00a0deal<\/p>\n

Our wearables editor, Matt Evans, carried out extensive testing on the Garmin Venu 4<\/a> and called it “your do-it-all companion, from meetings to mountain biking.” That summarises the fact that it looks great in all scenarios and performs well across the board of available metrics.<\/p>\n

Matt was so impressed by it that he gave it an almost perfect 4.5 out of five stars. He was impressed by the accurate health and fitness tracking, bright screen, and improved metal body. There are no dull-colour maps or LTE support, so if these are deal breakers, then you’ll need to look for a more premium alternative.<\/p>\n

The watch does include a speaker and microphone for taking calls, recording voice notes, and activating the phone’s voice assistant. There are also weather updates, morning and evening reports, training readiness scores, lifestyle logging and more.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to see what else is available, then our guide to the best smartwatches<\/a> has a full rundown based on our in-depth independent testing. While you’re considering wearables, why not browse the best smart glasses<\/a> as well?<\/p>\n
