Earlier this month, Garmin refreshed the Venu X1 with a new version<\/a>. Ultimately, the release did not change anything hardware-wise. However, it did expand the smartwatch’s colour options beyond the Black and Moss options in which it was sold since launching last July.<\/p>\n

As we noted at the time, the Soft Gold with Titanium Caseback release matched the MSRP of Garmin’s original Venu X1 variants. Both Black and Moss variants were available for $599.99 shortly before Garmin’s refresh, though. Now, the Soft Gold with Titanium Caseback variant has joined its Black and Moss siblings in a discount that drops it to $599.99.<\/p>\n

A 14% saving, the $100 discount is available to pick up from Garmin directly<\/a> and from retailers like Amazon<\/a>. With that being said, Amazon has discounted the Venu X1’s Black and Moss variants further. At the time of publication, these finishes can be purchased from Amazon for $499.99<\/a>, which is the lowest price on Amazon to date. Amazon has not clarified when either of these deals ends, though. Please see our Venu X1 launch<\/a> articles<\/a> for more details about Garmin’s ultra-slim smartwatch.<\/p>\n
