I switched from Apple Watch to Garmin Venu3S for the battery life and it does not disappoint! It's great except that I have to manual delete every notification!! There should be a Clear All button.

Bought the watch a few weeks ago. It seems to have great features but trying to set up (and keep) the watch face and other display options has been a challenge. The user manual was not much help!

Only wore two days , I have IPhone and wasn't happy with the lack of communication between the devices. I rely on watch to be able to answer texts or calls while I'm at work. Unfortunately the Garmin is more of a fitness watch than a communication device.

I am in love with my new Garmin. I was a Fitbit user for years and they are pretty good watches, but I switched to the Apple Watch after Google took over Fitbit. The Apple Watch is a complete nightmare, unusable unless you enjoy being enslaved to the charger. My Garmin is easy to use, has wonderful functions, has a bright and easy to read watch face and has a battery with long life. I am so glad I came to Garmin.

I made the switch from Apple Watch to this Garmin Venu 3s. I am so thankful I did. There is so much more to the fitness app, battery life is unreal lasting over 7 days!, and the watch is stylish. I comteplated and compared. I even ordered the new Apple Watch because I was worried about how the Garmin would work with my 16 pro iPhone. The very next day a coworker told me about her same dilemma and showed me her Venu 3s. I was sold and immediately returned the Apple Watch and ordered the Garmin. Best decision ever! Absolutely no syncing issues whatsoever. I will never go back to the Apple Watch again.

I bought this about a month ago and I am so glad that I did. I have always been an Apple Watch girly, but was reading reviews that the Garmin is better for exercise tracking. The reviews couldn’t have been more correct. I now realize Apple Watch is just a smart phone on your wrist whereas the Garmin does exactly what you wanted to do. Tracks my steps, tracks, my workouts, check my heart rate, tracks my sleep, and tells me the different sleep categories that I was in the night before. It’s been so helpful and such a blessing and I am so thankful that I purchased it.

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.

I love my Garmin venu 3s. My first Garmin watch. I bought it when I started my running journey to run my first half marathon. I love the sleeping feature as well. A year in, I have terrible screen burn and can barely see anything now. Not a cheap watch for this to happen only a year in.

Every app I I try to get for the watch say I need an update, despite the watch being fully up to date. The apps I'm talking about are stuff like Spotify, maps, and honestly most of the downloadable watch faces. The watch is still usable so I'll probably keep it, but I can only imagine if thats a consistent issue across all their watches, that is definitely a form of false advertisement. Being the apps played a huge roll in why I got the watch .... if you don't care about ythe apps issue the watch is fine for like the basic stuff. I also had hoped the keyboard for text messages worked a bit better i suppose the screen is small but its inconvenient to reply on it. Maybe if they had an option for scribble to text like the Samsung watches had that'd probably make up for the apps lol. Anyway I give it 3 stars cuz other than the things I mentioned it does the other stuff as described but its not really anything special, battery life is good, otherwise I probably would've gotten a Samsung watch.

Ok. Love that I can program my training runs. Love my sleep scores. There is so much more to uncover . Best watch for a person with super small wrist and it looks fantastic as well. I love that it also opens up convos with many - as they look it in admiration. Highly recommend it- did I mention I have actually gotten faster now as well- cannot recommend it enough.
