Garmin Malaysia has launched the much awaited Venu Sq and Venu Sq Music Edition as its latest GPS smartwatches to complement the Venu lifestyle series.
The new Venu Sq combines Garmin’s industry-leading health monitoring and fitness features with daily style and music; the Music Edition draws its additional quality from music playback features such as on-device music storage and Spotify compatibility.
“Time has come for Garmin to offer a smartwatch that upholds the brand’s soaring standards of functionality at a price point that is more accessible to a broad range of users,” said Mr Ivan Ong, Senior Manager of Aeco Technologies Sdn. Bhd.
Centered on highlighting the everyday functions and style, Alif Satar, popular local celebrity and artist has been chosen to represent the Garmin Venu Sq as its Ambassador. The core of the series is based on its multi-functionality and style which is in reflection to Alif’s active and entertainment lifestyle – in hopes to inspire fellow Malaysians to “move”.
Everyday style at pocket-friendly prices
The Venu Sq series features a 1.3” rectangular Corning® Gorilla® Glass touchscreen display with a lightweight aluminum bezel and a comfortable silicone band. Designed to accompany every style, the Venu Sq is available in orchid/metallic orchid, white/light gold, and shadow gray/slate. The Venu Sq Music Edition is offered in light sand/rose gold, navy/light gold, moss/slate and black/slate.
Make health monitoring your priority
With a suite of health monitoring features supported by Garmin’s cutting-edge, 24/7 ElevateTM heart rate monitoring1, which outpaces the competition by sampling heart rate multiple times per second, 24-hours a day.
Other built-in health features include advanced sleep with Pulse Ox2, respiration tracking, abnormal heart rate alerts (high and low), menstrual cycle tracking, stress tracking with relax reminders, hydration tracking and more. Innovative Body BatteryTM energy monitoring lets users monitor their energy level which can help with scheduling workouts, rest times and sleep.
When a situation calls to “just breathe,” users can access four mindful breathing activities right on their watch: “Tranquility” to promote sleep, “Coherence” to promote balance and calm, and two versions of “Relax and Focus” to encourage concentration and stress relief.
When it’s time to move, the Venu Sq series boasts over 20 built-in indoor and outdoor sports apps. Also tracked are steps, intensity minutes, calories burned and more.
The Venu Sq’s robust suite of workout options include preloaded workouts on the watch, preset workouts available to download from Garmin Connect, and “create your own” customisable workouts. Whether training for a 5K or something longer, the Venu Sq is compatible with Garmin Coach
