Garmin Unveils Venu X1 Featuring 2-inch Display - Competitor to Apple Watch Ultra 2 Model
So, Garmin just dropped the Venu X1 – their swanky new smartwatch boasting the biggest screen in the series, complete with a rectangular display instead of that classic round one. It flaunts a 2-inch AMOLED screen, oh, and let me tell you, it's fab!
But enough about looks. Let's talk features. Made with a svelte titanium body and sturdy sapphire glass, this watch ain't afraid to hang with the big boys like the Apple Watch Ultra 2. However, it takes the crown for being lighter and less bulky, clocking in at a mere 8mm thick and a smidge over 34g. That's a far cry from Apple's 14.4mm and 61g. Still, it's got the goods: a speaker, microphone, flashlight, and voice control, all without needing a smartphone tether.
The Venu X1 can track over 100 sports modes, pulse oximetry, and even offers full-color offline maps, a first for the Venu series. It's battery life? Up to two days with the Always-On display and up to eight days without it, but, alas, no ECG support or multi-band GPS, features found in more advanced Garmin models.
It'll hit the shelves on June 18, available in dapper black and dark green hues, and it don't come cheap. $799 is the starting price. Yes, that's about 63,500 rubles if y'all speaking Russian now.
