Garmin Venu 3, Black

I've had my Venue 3 for a couple of weeks now and I absolutely love it. It's display is fantastic, I love the features and the user interface!

Great for cycling and overall fitness tracking

Garmin

It's a beautiful looking watch. Tons of options. I wish it stayed connected to my phone more though.

Lots of options

I'm happy i made this purchase.. It really helps me track my exercise routine and body stats . I'm 68 yrs old , i'd give the watch a thumbs up

Grest to know

I had for 3 weeks and works great. Accurate on my treadmill, much improved watch faces that are preloaded. Touch screen is nice to have.

Great features

The Venu 3 is a real upgrade from the original Venu.  It has so many more features and comes with a better safety alerting system.

Great watch with many features

My husband got it for me as a Christmas gift, I wanted it so badly but now that I have it I don't love it. I think I'm Keeping my Fenix 5 instead.

Venu 3

I recently bought my Venu 3 and I am so happy that I did :) This watch has excellent features to track my cycling goals as well as regular stuffs.

Awesome watch for fitness enthusiasts!

I got mine for Christmas and have been very happy with all the things that it does and how easy it is to use

nice watch with plenty of features

My husband bought this for me to help monitor my health. I'm always saying I'm tired. This shows us why. I'm under lots of stress.

Best gift ever!

Best watch I've ever had! This watch has everything that I could ever want. I wish I had this for years!

Love This Watch!

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.

Workout tracking

Before I bought my Venu 3 I had an Apple Watch, I travel a lot and just keeping up with the charging on that thing was such a chore that I finally got to where I was mostly just wearing a dead watch on my wrist more often than a live watch.    I was a bit worried I would miss some of the functionality on the Apple watch.    After using the watch for 3 months, I don't miss anything about the Apple watch.    The Garmin does everything I want it to do.   It has a revolutionary feature where when I wonder what time it is, it shows me what time it is...  immediately... without having to click through 97 popups or find a location to charge.   It does allow you to get notifications from your watch but I disabled that feature on Day 1.     It also keeps track health stats (steps, sleep, etc) and has some useful health related features that I can use when I want to.   But mostly its just a watch and it doesn't demand a lot of my attention.    As I write this review, I don't remember the last time I charged the watch and it's at 15%.   I will probably charge it later tonight but if I don't it will probably still be alive tomorrow in low power mode and in my experience stays alive on the last 5% for enough time to not require a panic charge.     It also charges super fast.  

As far as appearance,  it's a little plain but it's not terrible.   I bought some rubber bezel/edge covers in different colors that make it look a little more like a real watch.   Search for Venu 3 Bumper Frame on walmart.com - I just bought the open face kind sold by some obscure foreign company I'll never remember the name of.   I don't have a glass protector and don't feel like I need one, no scratches to date.    I don't like the rubber wrist straps in general (even the Apple ones) so I bought a 3rd party nylon strap with velcro that also improved the look IMO.     It's definitely harder to find that style of strap than for the Apple Watch but they are out there.

It's definitely not as polished from the software side, things are a little clunkier and the layout/menus are a bit confusing.   It took me a few weeks to adjust but now I could care less and I actually kind of like that it discourages me from fiddling with my watch all the time.   Some of the advanced health metrics require a 2-3 week data collection period before they start working right, which was my main anxiety at the beginning.      It doesn't integrate with apps which I thought I would miss.    For example when my plane starts to board it doesn't popup an app notification telling me my plane is boarding, but that was so laggy I was usually already in line before it went off and I can't think of anything I miss about that.

Overall I love this watch and significantly prefer it over the Apple Watch.   The battery life is amazing and it doesn't demand daily attention but still tracks all the health metrics I wanted and presents them in a nice way when I want to look at them.
