Which one fits you
Both need much the same wrist — roughly 47–66mm across the flat of the wrist. Neither will fit where the other won't, so decide on thickness, weight and features instead.
The Google Pixel Watch 4 - 45mm wears larger than the Garmin Venu X1 (45mm vs 41mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Garmin Venu X1 is the slimmer of the two (7.9mm vs 12.3mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Garmin Venu X1 feels lighter (34g vs 36.7g, case only).
The Garmin Venu X1 is thinner than 100% of the 41mm watches we track and the Google Pixel Watch 4 - 45mm than 70% of the 45mm ones — so both wear flatter than their widths suggest.
The Google Pixel Watch 4 - 45mm is 4mm wider, 1mm shorter, 4.4mm thicker and 2.7g heavier than the Garmin Venu X1.
