minus-squaresbv@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·6 months agoBattery life. IMO it’s competing against Garmin watches that have 5-14 day between charges.
minus-squareLizardking13@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·6 months agoAre they competing though? I think they’re competing more with Samsung’s watch and apples watch. Garmin doesn’t have much in the line of smart watches. Their watches are fitness watches.
minus-squaresbv@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·6 months agoI think they are. The Venu line is a smartwatch.
minus-squareLizardking13@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·6 months agoAh okay. I have a forerunner and I’d never compare it to a pixel watch. If the venue is smarter then it makes sense. I wonder if they’re as “smart” or intuitive though. I have never used either so I’m just wondering.
minus-squareumbrella@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·6 months agoi dont know if it is but a 14-day battery life would get me to think about smartwatches.
minus-squaresbv@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·6 months agoI have a Fitbit that has around nine days before it wants a recharge. That’s plenty.

minus-squareAlmightySnoo 🐢🇮🇱🇺🇦@lemmy.worldOPMlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·6 months agoDefinitely, I hope they optimize Wear OS more as battery life is among the main things keeping me from getting a smartwatch. Haven’t checked Garmin watches in a long time but now that I do yeah the Venu 3S is definitely tempting.
minus-squaresbv@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·6 months agoI look at the Garmins periodically. They look great, but they don’t have assistant integration, which I think I want.
