Youre thinking of venture X with the same intro bonus

Not sure on the data points of being approved for this with promo if you have Venture-X.
If I were to guess, I would say low probability. C1 is quite tightfisted with approvals and bonuses.
Couple of months ago, I was offered a max of $5 price protection for an international ticket.
Also, their prediction/recommendation was to "wait to buy", but the fare just kept going
up all the way to the departure date.

Negative: you can't use rewards programs with the hotel. That's annoying as bc I'm cheap and trying to maximize. Also it means you have to book things separately (like a cabana in my case).
If you have good to excellent credit score, don't waste your HP on them.
They are also the only major creditor pulls from all 3 credit bureaus.
I'd advise stay away from them.
Food for thought; the Venture X has more lounge access and airport perks. It's $395, but comes with a yearly $300 travel credit. So if you buy essentially one plane ticket a year, it comes out to the same annual fee as the regular Venture card. I tried to ugrade when I realized this, but they said I'd opened my account too recently.

The regular Venture does not come with Priority Pass.... which honestly my experience with Priority Pass has been mixed too. Some lounges are overfilled and not allowing Priority Pass members. Or maybe they are, but you've got to wait awhile whereas other members walk right in. I waited over an hour in Vegas for entrance. First world problems for sure. But just telling you the real experience. It's not like having Admiral's Club or Centurion access, for example.
But as others have mentioned, the Venture X comes with a $300 travel credit and I also got a $200 AirBnB credit [thepointsguy.com] (don't see that called out anymore). Free global entry credit too, if you don't already have it.
