Good product but...

1. The bottoms to cancel or confirm an activity are very sensitive. I must to be super careful to avoid tou h them.even with my shirt sleeves or just passing hands over the watch unintentionally. 2. Sometimes the watch send messages with no sense: i.e., I walked for couple ours and I'm eating or just quiet and the watch tell me "time to move" Still to new for me but I'm sure Garmin can improve this and more issues

Thought it would be an awesome upgrade.

I had the venu for 3 years and loved it. My husband bought the venu 3 for my birthday. I thought it would be an amazing upgrade, but then found out it lost some features. When you are in an activity you can not swipe back to check the time (time of day), or change the volume of the music. I was a little disappointed.

Accurate HR, Good Features

Purchased the Venu 3 after having issues with a competitor's tracker that failed to accurately register HR during exercise. The Venu 3 reads my HR accurately, is feature rich and has a good app. Just a few complaints so far: (1) Sync is one-way to Apple Health and most other apps/products (Garmin syncs to but not from); this means that readings from connected scales and BP cuffs (other than Garmin brand) as well as other connected exercise machines (e.g., Peloton, Hydrow, etc.) won't sync to Garmin without utilizing certain third party apps, making it difficult to use Garmin Connect as the "one-stop" source of tracking; (2) sleep tracker won't allow adjustment of 8 hour per day recommended sleep amount: people who regularly get/need less than that will always register "poor" or "fair" sleep; (3) Fitness Age relies on BMI (absent consistent body fat percentage which can only be fed by Garmin scale) which is often NOT a reliable indicia of health: for me to achieve a BMI that allows me to reach my lowest achievable Fitness Age would imply a very unhealthy (low) weight.

THIS is my favorite Garmin watch yet!

I bought this about a month ago, so I'm still getting used to things, but I'm so in love with this watch. Touch screen is nice (Although it's sketchy when I'm drenched in sweat or water) and the features are pretty logical, so getting acclimated is a breeze. My favorite feature is the ability to download music from Spotify directly to the watch. I have had a problem keeping my headphones in my ear, but the watch has a speaker just loud enough for me to hear while I'm running. FANTASTIC! I definitely recommend this to folks for running / swimming / biking. I don't do much else, but if you're coming from an older watch and want to avoid the REALLY expensive watches, this one is a great choice

I love it

I love the venu3. It's a great little smartwatch/fitness tracker. It gives me motivation throughout the day if I've been sitting down for too long. It's got an onscreen keyboard like old cellphone keyboards. My only complaint is that the speaker while taking calls is very low and almost impossible to hear unless you're in a dead quiet place.

Versatile Watch

I got my watch a month ago and I am still discovering more features. I especially like the extended battery life particularly when I go on extended hikes using the GPS feature. I find the heart monitor much more accurate then my previous watch as well. The sleep feature is helping me to be more aware of my sleep quality. Highly recommend th Venu 3

Update required

The voice conversation switches to the watch speaker automatically If the lock is on, calls cannot be answered via the watch The dial cannot be silenced by the watch, only the dial can be hung up When you take off the watch, notifications arrive on the watch, not like other watches, only when you wear the watch

Awesome watch!

Perfect balance between a sportwatch and a smartwatch! Does a great and accurate job tracking all my activities! Also lets you get text and email notifications, and allows you to answer calls on your watch as long as your phone is connected. Great battery life! I get about a week or more with daily use. I had the Forerunner 965 witch gave you a ton of activity information but little smartwatch features. I traded it in the Venu 3! It was just what I was looking for! You won't be disappointed!

Love it

I have an Apple Watch with cellular but I always have my cell with me. The batteries don’t last. That why a switch to Garmin I have the choice to receive and make call and check my mail. I can also track very accurately my exercise regimen. Very satisfied with my purchase

Lovely Watch

I bought the watch a month ago and a have liked the features so far. The watch is lightweight, has a colourful display and the battery lasts more than a week. The apps are intuitive and easy to use. The one drawback I noticed is that the emails received are quite untidy in their format. I had a Fitbit earlier and in that the format of emails was crisp and neat. I hope Garmin improves on this aspect. Also incoming WhatsApp calls sometimes are audible only on the watch and NOT on my OnePlus 10 pro phone. Otherwise a lovely Watch and I'm enjoying it.
