Garmin
Venu® Sq (010-02427-01)
Garmin
Venu X1
The Garmin Venu® Sq and Garmin Venu X1 share a near-identical 40.6mm case, so wrist presence comes down to thickness, lug-to-lug and weight.
The Garmin Venu X1 is the slimmer of the two (7.9mm vs 11.5mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Garmin Venu X1 feels lighter (34g vs 37.6g, case only).
