Which one fits you
Both need much the same wrist — roughly 43–59mm across the flat of the wrist. Neither will fit where the other won't, so decide on thickness, weight and features instead.
The Garmin Venu 4 - 41mm wears larger than the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 - LTE · 40mm (41mm vs 38.8mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch6 - LTE · 40mm is the slimmer of the two (9mm vs 12mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 - LTE · 40mm feels lighter (28.7g vs 33g, case only).
The Garmin Venu 4 - 41mm is middle-of-the-pack for thickness among the 374 41mm watches in the database.
Among the 340 39mm watches we hold thickness for, the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 - LTE · 40mm is thinner than 93%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
