I got the Venue 3 as a birthday gift about a month ago and it is amazing. I check the watch and the connect app daily and is such an amazing tool to track my health and fitness. I didn’t know that my sleep was as bad as it is and the sleep coach has been such a huge help!!

This is a good daily tracker. Unlike higher end models, this watch lacks certain fitness metrics. I would recommend this watch for someone who casual fitness enthusiast. Screen quality is GREAT. Operating system is smooth and fluid. Unfortunately it cannot give cycling V02 metrics which despite its ability to pair with power meters.

Have been using it for nearly a month now and have loved every second of it. Simple interface that has made tracking simpler and more accurate. No longer bouncing from app to app to track different data points, it’s all right here. The battery life is by far my favorite. Instead of charging it everyday, I can go days between charges. When it does need charged, it ready quickly instead of waiting hours.

Does absence make the heart grow fonder? Hmm, well, I am sorry I waited so long to buy this Venu 3, but maybe I do appreciate it more since I started 'looking' at it over a year ago, maybe more! It has solved many little 'problems' that I didn't think could be solved--one of the simplest and best is the wakeup alarm that only wakes me up at 5:30 (the hubby doesn't want to get up that early; also I love the stats on my activity--it actually inspires me to do more. OK, that's enough love for now.

I was ready to upgrade my original Venu which was Garmin's 1st wearable with an AMOLED display. I absolutely love the new Venu 3! With the larger AMOLED display, easy to navigate menu, upgraded features/activities, speaker/mic, long battery life make this a fantastic product!!!! I would highly recommend!!!

As a sportswatch, am really liking the Venu 3--the updated HR sensor does a nice job of tracking, the GPS is great on my runs and hikes; body battery is somewhat useful. Sleep tracking is just ok--I don't rely on it (unfortunately, it impacts the body battery too). I went with the Venu 3 over, eg, a Forerunner because I wanted the updated HR sensor and also I had hopes that the Venu would provide some useful but limited smartwatch features. Overall, am disappointed in that--eg, the Voice Assistant is very slow to activate, and since I have to carry my phone with me anyhow, I wind up just pulling out my phone. Standard text replies work ok. Not a big fan of using the watch to make or answer calls--it works decently, but so it's just a personal preference for me. I had problems with the speaker on my first Venu and got a replacement--but the buttons on the replacement are mushy, which is a complaint I've heard from others. Overall, I really wish Garmin would come up with a decent smartwatch that lets me leave my phone behind on runs (I need a phone for safety because of my location). But maybe the competition is too steep--or the watches would be heavy and throw off HR tracking on people like me with small wrists. Who knows.

I have been wearing this Venu 3 watch for over a month. (Female wrist approx 6.6"). It came with a beautiful bright white and silver silicone watch band. It is comfortable without being too bulky. I'm a 1st time Garmin customer. The watch was easy to figure out straight from the box. I enjoy all of the fitness metrics both on the watch and in the app. It offers lots of motivation tools such as reminders to move and badges to earn. I wish there was a white nylon band that I could purchase to switch out sometimes. Can't find one anywhere.

After 9 years of having Fitbit I switched over to Garmin and very happy I did it. The interface is so much better (I can actually read all my notifications), so many watch face options. I have my workout watch face, casual/chill face, and “fancy” face for dates and nice events. I kind of wish I could put those on a schedule (hint hint garmin). It has more algorithms (data insights). I love the microphone/speaker feature and also in LOVE with the battery life. It was definitely more expensive than my Fitbit charges which did make me nervous but I’m very happy with the purchase. The next test is longevity and checking out more apps with it. Hopefully I’ll get 3 or more years out of it!

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!

I enjoyed my original VENU for the past three years and only upgraded due to the additional features available on the VENU 3. Specifically, the larger face, larger font, ability to send and receive calls and texts, and improved health stats and metrics. I am highly pleased with the VENU 3. In addition to these features, I am finding that the health stats and metrics are accurate, the sleep coach and Garmin Coach is helpful, and was surprised to find that the activities apps graphics are also improved. Finally, the VENU 3 easily integrated with Amazon Music, easily integrated with the Garmin store so I could obtain more watch faces, and has been holding a charge for nine to ten days with average use. Overall, a great investment which enhances daily life from the smartwatch perspective and helps improve health by accurate health metrics.
