Garmin makes the best smartwatches that I can’t wear every day

With a diverse range of powerful watches, Garmin earns a top spot in the wearables market. As a fitness enthusiast, I absolutely love Garmin’s entire lineup, from the Fenix 8 to the Vivoactive 6. The company’s lifestyle smartwatch, the Venu 3, offers fantastic heart rate and GPS accuracy, and a wealth of performance metrics. But despite its impressive features, I can’t bring myself to wear one every day. If you’re all about health and fitness, Garmin’s perfect. But if you need a smartwatch that handles everything, well, Garmin ain’t it.
