I made the switch from an apple watch and haven’t regretted it! While an apple watch is a a little more user friendly and to learn, the venu 3s made up for it with all of its features. The battery life is amazing and I love being able to download my music so I can workout without my phone. Plus I can still get all the same notifications I had with my apple watch, so I haven’t looked back

I have had it for a month now and I love being able to track my strength training and logging the sets I do! After switching from an Apple Watch after 9 years it’s taking time to learn how to use the watch but I love it! Plus only charging it once a week is amazing!

I had been an Apple Watch user for around 10 years so I was hesitant to switch to anything else. After having my Garmin for over a month now I’m so glad I made the transition. I originally got it for training for a half marathon, but now I’ve come to love ALL of its features such as my sleep score, body battery, recovery time, long battery life, accurate heart rate tracker, etc. This watch has helped me pay attention to my health and feel stronger & properly recovered for a workout instead of “closing rings” like I did with my Apple Watch. I fully recommend to this everyone!

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.

Brand new Venu 3S, wore for a week doing routine things- screen has scratched in multiple areas, one fairly deep. I tried to find screen protectors on the Garmin website- no dice. Apparently they are not recommended. Trying to find some way to protect the screen from everyday use. I love the features but have to remove the watch to do anything, which defeats the purpose of tracking activities. I'd give durability a 1 star and features 4-5 stars.

I’ve had this for a few weeks now and I am loving it! Been an Apple Watch girly for years and was so scared to make the switch but I wanted something with more fitness and wellness insights. This has it! It gives you info that’s useful and it feels so good to say goodbye to trying to “close those rings”. Love the sleep stats most of all. It’s very lightweight too so I don’t even notice it on my wrist at night. The battery life is also phenomenal!

I’ve been an Apple Watch user for about 8 years. I recently made the switch, as I’ve had less interest in all the smart watch features and more interest in my lifts and runs and body stats. I’m almost a month in and absolutely love everything about the data I get. The Garmin watches are always runner approved and promoted but really undersold for strength and lifting!!! I love the stats and tracking capabilities that are built right into the watch, without an outside app. I also love the way it looks!!!

My husband bought me this watch as a gift for graduation. I was beyond impressed with the battery life. My old watch was having to be charges every 30 hours. With my Venu S with the same level of notifications and alerts turned on, I have to charge it after day 7. Did you read that...DAY 7. My only feedback....I would love to see the app have a battery meter so when charging you can tell when it's fully charged. Any other flaw is not a flaw but a preference and I have made adjustments. I absolutely love this watch!!! Worth it!

I love my Garmin Venu 3. It does everything I want it to do. The Battery Life is so great. The biggest reason that I have a Garmin is I love the sleep app. It Keeps track of the quality of my sleep.I have an Apple Watch also and the battery life is not very good. I will take my Garmin over the Apple Watch.because of the battery life.I think they are similar but the Garmin is overall a better watch.

Enjoy the different types of exercises it keeps track of. I wish there was an easier way to set an alarm for it or it going off when you set an alarm on your phone. I do love the fact that I don’t need to charge it every night like my Apple Watch that I had before getting this.
