Connection issues

In the beginning I loved it. It did everything I needed and wanted it to do and then some. In the last few months it won't stay connected to my phone. When it disconnects I have to fight with it to reconnect.

Every day it's trying to do an update. I have hard reset it 3 times. Followed all the troubleshooting instructions and it still does it. It doesn't record my steps, also doesn't sync to my iPhone all the time.

Harv's 3

I upgraded from the 2. Love the 3. Tracks my 75 year old carcass pretty well for many of the things the cardiologist likes to see. BIGGEST COMPLAINT it does not have a Treadmill WALKING setting for us "Old" people who fron knee replacements can not run anymore.

Workout tracking

I bought this a month ago and I’m extremely disappointed.. I got it to measure sleep and heart rate and the sensor on this one may be faulty.. constantly saying my heart rate is 100+ and only getting 3 hours of sleep (so I recorded myself for a whole week and got 7 hours of sleep.. while the garmin said 3.5 hours… or wouldn’t even measure sleep) I should’ve gotten the venu 4 but will probably never get a garmin again after this experience.

Everything you need at a glace

This one tracks everything! I find the aleep data especially important. It has a variety of free watch faces that can display all your metrics and it syncs perfectly with my iPhone. I love Garmins, I am a loyal Forerunner customer for years now but I do love the added features of the Venu!

Quality watch ...

Just received the replacement for my venu that had the watchface display go blank. Outside the warranty so cost me the replacement fee. The watch features are very good.

Excellent watch for all my activities, including gym workouts, hiking, swimming, backpacking, etc. Very easy to set up and I like all the dat options I have. Excellent screen design and options. My only concern here is that this watch requires more frequent charging than my Instinct Solar, even though it's not in GPS mode.

Good watch

I have very much enjoyed the Venu 3. It appears reasonably accurate calculating steps outside. It has all of the Smart functions I would want. On the con side, The treadmill function could be more accurate, but is correctable. It does question all the other distances you may walk inside. I wish the flash light feature was better. The integration with an iPhone for phone calls and messages is iffy. Overall, I would purchase it again - or upgrade to the Venu 4.

Excellent fitness watch

I've had this almost a month now (replacing my Venu 2). I absolutely love it. Bright display, multiple features and increased number of workout trackers, and great battery life. Well worth what I spent. (And my wife has been thrilled with hers too.)
