Garmin Fenix 7 vs Garmin Vívoactive 4S

Verdict

The Garmin Fenix 7 is a great watch with excellent tracking capabilities and a transflective screen that looks like a normal watch indoors. It has an impressive battery life, customizable watch faces, and supports Asian languages. However, it can be difficult to start and stop activities, the maps cannot be zoomed in on, and navigating the device can be unintuitive.

Verdict

The Garmin Vívoactive 4S is a solid update from the Vivoactive 3 Music, offering two different size options and a range of features. It has longer battery life than the Apple Watch Series 5, and can track sleep out of the box. It also supports Garmin Pay with Curve, providing a digital card for payments. However, some users have found that the voice command feature is unreliable. Additionally, while it looks more like a "real" watch than sports equipment/smart watch, some users have found that the screen is difficult to read in bright sunlight.
