Had this for just about 3 weeks now and it is spot on accurate with everything you want it to do. Steps, calories, heart rate, sleep score, literally everything. Just figured out it pairs with Myfittnesspal and now it is allowing me to be so intune with my weight loss journey.

I had this watch for about a month and it’s the best investment I have made in years. Apart from the fitness aspect, the stats on stress and body recovery are some of the best I’ve seen. It really keeps me mindful and points out when I might be doing too much, which is a helpful reminder to stay grounded and manage stress. It’s also great at keeping you motivated due to it being so intuitive.

I bought this 3 weeks ago moving from a Fenix 5S mainly because of the price point. I also used the Apple Watch but I never fully enjoyed using it. I like what the Venu 3S has to offer so far. Still getting used to the features but metrics seem to be fairly accurate so far when compared to my Oura ring. Would recommend.

this is everything (so far) that ive expected in a health watch, there are a few things which I would have liked to be better for my taste. the 3S band for me is a bit on the short size ( its on the last eye but again to my taste i really dont care for the bigger watch face hense the 3S instead of the 3 but i cannot score down due to my taste. the other item (which is on me as well) I use an Elliptical everyday & a few times I have forgotten to turn off the timmer so in my report it appears like im on it for multi hours. wish there was a alert for inactivity. the features from walking (no running for me due to health issues) show the route that was taken i like a lot. this is my first Garmin watch (ive used garmin for several GPS units for the road & biking) & to this point am happy with my decision for this unit. just wish there band was a bit longer

I have the Venu Sq and really liked it, but I was missing out on new features like being able to talk and text through my watch. So, I thought about buying the Venu 3S for quite a while. I wish I didn't wait so long because the Venu 3S is fabulous! Not only can I talk and text through it, but I can keep track of my heart rhythm. I thought it would be too big for my wrist, but surprisingly it isn't. I really like that they kept the "Face-It" so I have my grandson's picture on it. I'm still getting used to all the features and we're they are located, but I am very happy with it.

I have issues with Oxygen saturation that no one has been able to diagnose. I had the Vivo watch before, but it only did night-time sats. This one can be set for 24h/day and is showing some additional issues during the daytime that I was not aware of, but explains the strange headaches I get. Between the watch and my Doc's we can figure this out!! Super helpful to be able to "watch" this (no pun intended)

The only reason I thought this watch was that I wanted accurate accounts. When I received the watch, there were no instructions. After lunch research, I figured out about half of the functions on the watch, but the others were elusive. The watch would not count my steps on the treadmill. They sell it as stamps, but it doesn’t count steps. I returned it.

I bought my Garmin Venu 3S about a month ago primarily for health/fitness tracking and I am training for my third marathon this summer. Previously I was using an Apple Watch. Some of the features I like: Body Battery, Stress, Sleep Data, Recovery, and the watches battery life is great. The thing I'm super bummed about is I thought the Garmin Coach would have a marathon plan for me to use right on the watch. Unfortunately I found out the plans only go up to half marathon unless I want to logon to Garmin Connect and find a self guided plan to use on my phone... Considering marathon training is the whole reason I bought the watch and runners always say how great Garmin is I was shocked and sad by this finding so I can't rate it better than a 3 star.

When the battery on my Vivosport sputtered I upgraded to a Venu 3s. It is more attractive and has colored icons & indicator. I like the timer's upgraded features. The activity tracker is not as helpful; it has no 'other' category and seems to want to impose a method of tracking activity that doesn't match what I'm doing. For example, for Pilates it doesn't show time and calories & doesn't accommodate an in-person class. I don't want to stop what I'm doing to track it. Also, the battery was advertised as lasting10 days; my last about 3. Overall, I like it.

I recently made the switch to garmin and I could not be more ecstatic that I finally pulled the trigger!! The Venu 3S is the absolute best smart watch on the market!! It has anything and everything you could possibly need & want in a smart watch! I HIGHLY recommend this watch to everyone!! A+++
