Combine the smarts of an Apple Watch with the good looks of a Breitling or fine swiss timepiece and you have the Venu 3. There are terrific watch faces that make you look like you paid $10K for what's on your wrist. Then add accuracy and easy, and you're all set. I couldn't be happier.

I am Happy with my venu 3. I LOVE it for running. I dont Love that I often need to reconnect it to my phone. I use It a lot for running/working out & was extremely excited to have the battery last me 14 days. But I am Lucky if it lasts a week. which is great coming from having to charge my Apple Watch each night. I also Struggle with not being able to respond to texts on it because that was very convenient when wearing my Apple Watch

I’ve had this about month. I’m not a big runner, but I do walk daily for at least 40 minutes at a fairly fast pace. I love how it tracks my heart rate zones, steps, sleep, vo2 max. It even tells time. Battery life is great. Only have to charge it once a week.

Awesome watch to help keep track of all your fitness, sleep, and health. I really use it to help record my progress for fitness, tennis, and golf and tracking my results. The only complaint I have is wishing the Bluetooth could connect a little farther. It seems to only go about 25ft and alerts you every time you disconnect or connect when you are at that distance. Other than that it’s a solid overall watch!

I lost my Fenix and needed a replacement, so I looked back at Garmin. I didn't need the tactical stuff anymore, however I do like my creature comforts and started needing more health related diagnostic tools. This watch has been amazing for that. Having the speaker on it is awesome for answering calls from the watch. I also got the BP cuff and between the two, there is not a vital I can't collect... except for temp (which I think is an odd feature to leave out.) Also, I would like to see a "my fitness pal" widget and a larger variety of apps. This is a 5 star watch that, unfortunately, lacks some of the basic functionality of most smart watches. If you want an all around amazing health monitor and fitness watch with limited smart features, this is it.

I was skeptical that my Venue would replace everything that I liked about my Apple Watch. I’ve been presently surprised that there is nothing I really miss from my old watch and many things I really like about it. I really like the Battery Life!, better screen, looks, comfort (much lighter in my opinion) training and activities, challenges etc. What it doesn’t do that the apple does that I don’t miss: Apple wallet. Don’t really need to use my watch for boarding passes etc. always have my phone anyway. maps, frankly I always hated that when navigating it killed my battery life.

Received a refurbished unit after the Original Venu 3 just stopped working all together. No display whatsoever. Prior to it totally going blank, it had connectivity issues. It would frequently flash "phone disconnected"..then "phone connected "...back and forth. I just received this refurbished unit 3 days ago and have swam the last 2 days in the pool, it recorded the swim sessions just fine, but this morning the watch went to dim mode and a default clock face was present upon awakening. I had to reset and reconnect. Later this morning I will call customer service and ask for a replacement. My Original unit lasted about 11 months before having any issues. I primarily swim 3-5 times a week, about an hour each time.

I've had multiple Garmin watches, probably 7 total, and have loved them all. I got the Venu 3 because of being able to take calls from the watch but I'm most impressed with the clarity and touch screen. I also like the slimmer look for the office over the fenix. My only complaint is the watch band is short, I'm attach it on the 3rd notch from the end. Overall, another great product!

I brought the Garmin Venu 3 a while back as I needed something to monitor my health as I will be 91 years soon. Each morning I checked my sleeping during the night, how many steps I am walking daily, how many calories I am burning daily and so forth. I am able to keep my weight to a healthy 170 lbs at the end of the day. I also have the Garmin scale that Island to an app that gives me valuable information on my health. For me the Garmin Venu is truly a great way to monitor my health on a daily basis. Highly recommend the Garmin Venu series smartwatch smartwatch. 1 wear the Garmin Venu 24/7.

There are some nice features to this watch, but when it comes to sleep and recovery, it is a dismal failure. It is rigid and unadaptable. The parameters are set and not adjustable. I use my Fitbit to monitor my sleep and recovery because the Venu 3 fails miserably.
