I've had this for almost a month now and am liking it. I can't give it a full 5 star review because the voice assistant and some other features don't work, no matter how much I try. I contacted support to get some assistance and the guy was less than helpful and sent me a link to a web page I had already found and tried. It's not a deal breaker, but I did use voice to text quite a lot on my previous watch when I was working out or at work so that I didn't have to pull out my phone. I have a Samsung Galaxy s24. Other than that, a very pretty watch with some other really great fitness and wellness tracking features and a great battery life.

Have been using the venu 3 for a while now. Has everything that you need to track workouts/sleep/steps etc. Battery life is exceptional as well. Compared to the Apple watch I used to own this one is miles ahead and has a better look to it. Watch is easy to use once its set up.

I have owned 2 Fitbits, 1 Spade and 4 and finally bought this Garmin Venu3s. I love it. So far it has been incredibly accurate and comfortable to wear. I love the traditional round face, instead of the unpredictable, mundane, rectangular one. I’ve only had it a few weeks, so hopefully it will hold up well. It was not hard to set up and personalize. Did I say I’m 78 and it was not difficult??

There are a few things I like about the Garmin mostly the battery life, but several things I miss about my Apple watch. The one thing I hate THE MOST about this Garmin is that if your phone is not plastered to your body you lose connection. I can’t even walk from my kitchen to my garage without my watch telling me my phone disconnected. We should be able to walk around a close distance especially when we have WiFi and still have phone functions on our watch.

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

There are some very nice features, including a crisper screen that I can read better without bifocals. But, the golf app, my primary use, is much worse than my Vivo Active 4S. The distances often don't update as you move away from the tee box. It may even show the entire length of the hole as you are near the green. Shot tracking is terrible. Drives appear to go all the way to the green, despite second and third shots being recorded from the correct place. When distances do show correctly, they are usually 5 yds long. Also disappointing that it's not compatible with the CT1 sensors. Swimming seems OK, but doesn't recognize breast stroke. I'm hoping software updates will improve the apps, but at this point I miss my old Vivo Active 4S.

Ive had my watch for 3 months now, and I am extremely disappointed. One of the primary reasons I purchased it was for the sleep tracking, which barely works. I gave it a few weeks to "learn me" in hopes it would perform as it should but it never happened. It tracks my sleep probably 2/7 nights a week. Waste of money. Next time I'll stick with Samsung watches.

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.

Bought 2 weeks ago. Previously had a Fenix 5S and Apple Watch. Still learning to use the features as its touch screen vs the Fenix. Would like to see the entire bezel made in the metal colour of bezel and no plastic so we can switch bands and dress it up.

I have been purchasing Garmin watches for over 20 years. I wouldn't think of switching to another brand. I absolutely love the Venu 3S that I purchased last month. Health and fitness features are very important to me. This model does everything I need without being bulky.
