I upgraded from a Venu to a Venu 3S and I’m enjoying the additional features. I am a bit disappointed that it is advertised as being able to receive text photos but that doesn’t appear to be an option with iPhone messaging. Feels a bit deceptive.

I love my venu 3s. My only complaint is it arrived with a small chip at the top of the watch. Hardly noticeable but when you are spending this kind of money it should be perfect condition

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!

It is hard to navigate. I can’t get it to take a message and send it. I have yet to get the apps to open. I paid too much for something that doesn’t work like it was promised

Love the Venu series. This was an upgrade from the Venu 2s. Still learning all the new features. The jet lag will come in handy when we visit our daughter who lives in Germany.

My original watch was wearing out. I didn't look at any other brands but researched Garmin diligently for an upgrade that was right for me. Chose the Venu 3S over the Fenix 8 by a narrow margin. Still learning the new aspects but loving my decision. Really like the new features and the old ones with new twists/graphics. Only wish at this point is that syncing to phone was easier and we got notifications of software updates instead of finding out by needing to re-sync.

Have had this watch for about a year now and absolutely love it. Had the Vivoactice 3 for about 4 years and upgraded to this one. The only negative is that the screen isn’t super great in protecting from scratches. It got scratched in the first 2 months. But otherwise love the watch and highly recommend.

I bought my watch a month ago and love it! Understanding my sleep and how my diet has affected it is amazing! I love knowing how my body recovers. Only thing that is way off is calories burned during some of the exercise modes - I don’t worry about those as much as my step count!

This is maybe my 10th Garmin product (maybe more) and it looks nice, but really isn’t good for running, as it is very easy to unintentionally delete a workout. On my prior watches you always had to confirm if you wanted to delete a workout, but this one just deletes if you brush the touchscreen. Not ideal to say the least. I’ve tried to ask Garmin support if I can turn that function off, but they said I cannot.

Loved it until the battery life sucked! Had the watch just over a year, and loved it. Then all of a sudden battery just dies in less then a day when it used to last 5 days! GPS was great and loved the lifting features that counts your sets. I want to get another but worry about the battery doing the same thing. This is an expensive watch for the battery not to last.....
