Watch is very functional but connections!

I bought the watch two weeks ago and up to now am very satisfied with its performance and all of the integrated features. Especially the customizable options for additional clients such as Komoot or Spotify and also its flexibility when it comes to accessories (create your own watch face, etc.). The problem is with connectivity. The bluetooth connection has needed to be reset three times because the watch and my phone cannot reconnect on their own. This occurs in the morning when you first get up, and if you leave the sleep report before getting close to your phone,...then it drops the connection and needs to be completely set up again from the start (delete the watch from the phone and restart/reboot both devices and then run through the whole set up process again). This is a BIG problem and needs to be corrected by GARMIN.

Very nice watch but…

I love the fitness features of the watch and how easy it is to review your daily challenges. I also like how easy it is to change watch faces with lot of free options to choose from. I love the battery life which is now about 9 days. What I don’t like is the short watch band and it’s uncomfortable! I also don’t like the plastic case.

Great watch!

My son got me this watch for Mother's Day and I love it. I'm still learning what all I can do, but so far I've been really impressed. I love the fact that I can get calls and texts and notifications right on the watch. And, I can make calls and send texts. It's great. I'm really enjoying it.

The Venu S3 is a very solid option for an intermediate runner or someone who likes moving. I wish the S option was slightly smaller, but the size is good. If you are just getting into running, I'd definitely recommend one of the cheaper options, that will have a lot of the same features, but will not look as nice as the Venu.

Awesome Upgrade!

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.

This watch is great for tracking health. It has more capabilities than I thought when I purchased it. The battery life is also way better than expected. The band was great quality but I was able to find a more comfortable aftermarket, point being the options are endless and it was very easy to replace.

Healthcare professional needs second hand

Garmin claims to have an always on display but does not keep the entire clock face, the second hand on. This is very important in my work. The second hand worked on my old garmin watch. I cannot use this watch for everyday use without a second hand. For me the other features were a bonus but now they don't matter at all if I'm not wearing the watch.

Love my Venu

I have been wearing a Garmin watch for 30 plus years. Have had at least 5 of the different models and have always loved them. Switched from fit bit because back then, they were only water resistant and Garmin was water proof. As I like to swim as well as walk, that was important. Next month I will be 75 and still enjoy getting the vibration letting me know I am passed 10,000 steps and often get to 20,000 in a day. Love my new Venu and how easy it was to install the watch.

Best tracker

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.
