It also introduces weekly sleep consistency scores, so instead of just a nightly rating, you see how well you're sticking to a regular schedule. There's also lifestyle logging.

So, if you value a brighter, cleaner, more premium-looking watch, the Venu 4 wins. But, if comfort and lighter wear matter more, the Venu 3 still makes a lot of sense. Moving on to software and smart features, the Garmin Venu 4 gets the bigger upgrade because it runs the newer Garmin interface with smoother menu access and better daily summaries.
