Rare for a smartwatch with real GPS and health sensors to work fully on both platforms — Versa 4 does.
Turn-by-turn navigation and NFC payments without needing your phone in hand.
Sleep stages, daily readiness score, Active Zone Minutes, and SpO2 — all on a 6-day charge.
Body Battery, sleep coach, training readiness and VO2 max — the metrics Garmin watch owners rely on — in a screen-free band with no mandatory membership.
Swap between a wrist band and an upper-arm band, which many users find more comfortable during sleep and more accurate during workouts.
Up to 10 days between charges, longer than the Fitbit Air's 7 days. A full charge takes up to 90 minutes on Garmin's proprietary charger.
The right pick depends on what you optimize for.
$387 vs $409 over 3 years.
10 days vs 6 days battery.
5 sensors.
21g.
Android or iPhone users who want a balanced smartwatch with solid Fitbit health tracking, multi-day battery, and a clean square watch design — without the premium price of a Galaxy Watch or Apple Watch.
Full details →People who want WHOOP-style 24/7 recovery and sleep tracking without a monthly fee, especially existing Garmin users or anyone who wants Garmin's Body Battery and training readiness metrics without wearing a watch.
