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 watch replaced a Garmin Chronos, which I used for years and loved. The Chronos was a great watch too, but the technology, especial the display, has evolved and it was time to find a suitable replacement. The Venu 3 has more features and a very nice display and easily became my favorite Garmin watch. I am not an athlete, but do like to track certain stats including steps walked and calories burned. I also monitor my heart rate and the weather. I probably use 10% of the watches capabilities. I love getting notifications, however, phone calling, while possible, is not something I do with the watch. The receive audio is hard to here, and when that mode is active, it interferes with other BT connected telephone devices. So, except for phone calling via the watch, the Venu 3 is a keeper, like the Chronos that it replaced.

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.

This is my third Garmin watch and the best yet. I do not need a hard core watch like a Fenix as I have an Edge 840 for tracking my cycling. But I do like a Garmin watch for track other activities and for tracking health metrics. My previous watch was a Forerunner 945. The Venu 3 was attractive to me because it's upped the ante by adding more features (temp sensor, enhanced HRV tracking, ECG app, etc.). It was very easy to adjust to the new watch especially due to the touch screen. The new AMOLED screen is BEAUTIFUL!

Had it a couple of months. It was hard for me to switch from my Apple Watch but I had it with their battery and how frequent I need to charge it. My venu 3 is charged for at least 8 days and gives me all the Apple Watch info and actually more data. And it looks nice

I've had the original Venu for a few years and the OLED display is half faded-out. I liked that one so much that I stuck with it in the Venu 3. There are some nice upgrades and the screen is much better (yes, even before the fading). The main thing that kept me from getting a Fenix that was on sale is the ECG app - my Doc even recommended it for me and I got it with FSA $'s. I was given the Approach S62 for my golf habit, but if I forget that one the golf app in the Venu does just fine.

I got this a couple weeks ago. Didn't need it as my old watch still worked, but my wife likes her Garmin so I started looking. Very confused in figuring out which model I wanted. I think the Venue 3 is indeed the which I was looking for. More money than I wanted to spend but very worth it. Takes time to learn navigation but not too difficult. Also paired to Garmin blood pressure monitor. That took a minute but works fantastic. Got an aftermarket band that I love and fits perfect.

This is my first Garmin watch. I am a huge fan of it overall. I even bought another one for my mother last Mother’s Day. Charging once per week is awesome. 1) customizable watch face 2) customizable middle button functionality 3) customizable strength workouts. This has been a game changer for my fitness, “gamifying” my target heart rates for longer and longer intervals. suggestions to Garmin: 1) super minor, if you’re not wearing the watch, and an alarm triggers, the watch will continue buzzing and beeping, draining battery life 2) rep counting in the strength app is about 70-90% accurate depending on how consistently “jerky” a lift is. For example, deadlifts are almost 100% accurate. But, compound exercises like clean & jerk are very inconsistent. 3) I wish watch could help me target a cardio heat rate. Perhaps once per minute , it could buzz once/twice to say “go faster!” Or “you should slow down!” Overall, awesome product I recommend with beautiful display. Great for anyone looking to improve their fitness

I’d been using Apple watches for years but I recently purchased the Garmin Venu 3 and I love it. The fact that I don’t have to charge every 3-4 days is awesome. Garmin is really stepping up in term of smart watches and in my opinion, they should be one of the best smart watch producers out there instead of Apple; that one is just for the brand.

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.
