I've owned the Venu 3 for about a month and I am so pleased with it! As someone who has owned a smartwatch since the beginning of the technology came out, this is by far my favorite one! My biggest complaint with smartwatches is that most companies try to make it something that could one day replace your phone. I believe most owners are like myself and just want something that is a great companion piece to technology we already own. The Venu 3 does just that. The health metrics are fantastic and have helped me make more informed decisions regarding my overall health. The notifications for things like messages and other apps on my phone are subtle and helpful. This is my first foray into the Garmin smartwatch world and I am now a customer for life!

I have had this watch for theee weeks and am blown away by its incredible functionality. Aside from giving me more health and fitness information than my Apple Watch, it is a great golf watch. On top of all that, the battery life is several times longer than Apple Watch. Couldn’t be happier wit this watch.

This Venu 3 watch replaced a Fitbit watch with a lot less features. I needed to replace my Fitbit and hearing from a lot of friends NOT recommending an Apple watch as they have to charge daily. That was a non-starter for me because the sleep quality feature is one my favorite apps. Expertvoice had a great deal on a Venu 3 so I gave it a try. Very good feature laden watch. Battery looks like it will last over 5 days, probably longer as I just got the watch. It has a lot of apps and features so give yourself time to learn them all if you're new to Garmin watches. I have Garmin bike computers but the Garmin watch ecosystem is a whole new level. It has a great screen and can easily replace my bike computers. I am very happy with my purchase. Especially the prices in Expertvoice.

The watch performs better than expected. The data you get from swimming, walking, and such is great. A limitation that's annoying is you can't go below certain custom lengths on the watch. You can manually update it in the app after, but if you have it linked to something like Strava it only pulls the original recording, which makes it look like I'm world record holding swimmer. If you plan on doing indoor cycling it also doesn't allow you to manually put in a reading from a bike for distance/speed, you'll need to buy a Garmin sensor for that. Other than those two gripes I love it. I wear it to sleep and it doesn't feel heavy wearing it.

I've had this watch for about a month now. I previously was running a vivoactive 3 until it got to the point it wouldn't hold a charge the entire day. When I upgraded I wanted similar features and the venu3 had the integrated speaker so I went with that. Expectations wise it's been great from a a user standpoint and is responsive. Unfortunately from just everyday use it turns out the metal is just painted rather than dyed so it scuffs easily and I can see by the end of the year my black metal watch turning silver from simple usage. And for the record I have a desk job so it's not like I'm taking it into a construction site.

Best decision! I recently switched from an Apple Watch Series 7 because I wanted a watch that had a longer battery, sleep tracking, and more accurate fitness reporting. After about a month of use, I am in LOVE. The sleep tracking is incredible, so is the battery life. This watch is perfect. I also wanted to step away from smart watch capabilities, as constant notifications to my Apple Watch was beginning to be too much. The Venu 3 only gets text and calling notifications and it's perfect for me! You can also still use the "Phone My Phone" feature as one can on the Apple Watch! Would recommend to anyone!!

I’ve had my Venu-3 for about one month and like it very much. My 2 complaints are minor. #1, the documentation is not good. The manual is more a reference guide & less of an instruction book. It assumes you are already familiar with the terms used (like “glances”) without any explanation. My #2 is that although the watch is very customizable, there are annoying things I cannot turn off. For instance, during a quiet time (like a church service) it will vibrate to let me know it’s time to get up and be active. That said, I really like the health monitoring features like Pulse-Ox, ECG & heart rate.

I have had several different Garmin watches for years and the improvements and upgrades just keep getting better! I love the ease of getting to my activities and widgets. It is intuitive. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a smartwatch that helps you achieve your health goals.

I absolutely love this Venu 3! Great battery life, great display, workout and health features are incredible and very insightful data that’s perfect for improving overall fitness, health, and sleep goals. Data accuracy is spot on and doesn’t over estimate or under estimate metrics. Thank you!

Ive had my Venu 3 watch for about a month now, and I love it. This is my first Garmin product, and after reviewing the extensive array of watches that Garmin produces, I decided on the Venu 3. For the exercise routi es I do, and general lifestyle, it is perfect. Initially, I was looking for a watch with better battery life, and I'm happy to say that I've gotten up to 2 weeks of runtime on a single charge. I also appreciate the many metrics that the app provides, but one of the functions, (jetlag) has come in very handy, as I do international trips weekly. The sleep advisor is also a valuable tool to remind that more sleep is needed. Overall, I'm extremely happy with Garmin, and the Venu 3 smartwatch!
