Best switch from Apple Watch!
I recently switched to the Garmin Venu 3S after using an Apple Watch for years, and man how I wish I would’ve switched sooner. This watch is so much sleeker and I can’t get over how light weight it is. It feels great on my wrist, and I barely notice I’m wearing it. The number of exercise activities it tracks is insane. Whether it’s my usual workouts or something new I want to try, it’s got it. And the battery life is honestly amazing. I used to have to charge my Apple Watch daily, but with this, I can go days before needing to plug it in. For the same price as an Apple Watch, you get way more features, a better design, and something that’s actually fashionable enough to wear all the time. I haven’t really messed with it too much but you can use the Garmin app to change the Watch face and side buttons. Which is the only thing I still need to figure out and get used to. The buttons and swipe motions are a little tricky to get used to at first, it seems Garmin watches mainly use the side buttons to navigate, when I’m used to using the touchscreen, but that’s just a learning curve. Overall, I’m obsessed and have zero regrets. I can’t see myself going back to an Apple Watch after this. Highly recommend!

Garmin watch venue 3s
I finally made the switch from the Apple Watch to the Garmin watch and I couldn’t be happier. The Garmin give so many details the Apple Watch didn’t offer. The battery life is amazing and don’t have to worry about it dying mid workout. The venue 3s fit me better as it is smaller.
