New Garmin smartwatch gets second beta update

Garmin is rolling out a new beta update for the Venu 4 smartwatch. This is the second beta release for the wearable, which was launched in September 2025. The first update for this watch was beta version 15.08, which arrived in early October 2025.

In a recent post on the Garmin forum, a representative for the company announced that beta version 15.10 was now available for users of the Venu 4 smartwatch (curr. $559.99 at Amazon). However, the change log attached to the post is identical to that shared for the beta version 15.08 update. At the time of writing, it is unclear whether there are other, unlisted bug fixes included in this release.

As a reminder of the features which arrived with beta version 15.08, Garmin Venu 4 users can now power down the smartwatch without entering the device passcode, and the click sound played when you start a voice note has been minimized. There are bug fixes for problems like a muted speaker or device reboot when trying to answer a phone call. Garmin has also tackled issues linked to the notification number shown on the watch face, the time shown in the Evening Report and crashes after users receive multiple smart notifications. You can find the complete change log below.

If you are a member of the Garmin Venu 4 Beta Program and wish to install the version 15.10 update, go to Main menu > Settings > System > Software Update > Check For Updates.
