Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Garmin Venu 3 works very well when paired to the iPhone. I found this watch to be the most user friendly and many of the watch faces are free. Highly recommended due to its 12 plus days of battery life. I like it large easy to read face and better that the Apple Watch.

Lightwieght. Advertised battery life is a little lower than advertised, but it's plenty. it has the newest sensor and is very accurate. Gps is accurate. Steps are accurate. Get this over the samsung series.

I've had this product for about a week and a half now. For a fitness tracker it has all of the Smartwatch capabilities that I could want. I really like the overall look of the device and how it functions. It's an awesome Fitness tracker. Lastly the battery life is incredible. Getting multiple multiple days out of each charge. It has a beautiful crisp screen so I'm still trying to figure out why I can go so long without a charge when Samsung devices and apple watches cannot possibly compete.

This watch excels in endurance, outlasting the competition even with a charge every 2.5 days. However, my shift to a Garmin, aiming to eliminate charging concerns, didn’t work out. Setting aside the battery issue, this watch is impressive. The vibrant screen, especially its night mode color switch, is a smart touch. The heart rate accuracy surpasses my previous devices, though it occasionally showed elevated rates, possibly reflecting reality. Beyond that, the additional features like HRV, EKG, sleep tracking, and stress monitoring, along with the morning report, are valuable. The sleep tracking, however, seemed less accurate, often misinterpreting stressed nights as restful. The oxygen check feature is a useful addition, though it significantly impacts battery life, especially when set to continuous monitoring. I found the optimal balance during sleep mode, but turning it off seemed to minimize battery consumption. The watch’s overall battery performance fell short of my expectations, needing a recharge every 2 days, even with certain features disabled. Running multiple EKGs daily, while impressive, didn’t offset the absence of exercise GPS. For those not fixated on continuous oxygen monitoring, this watch offers great potential, easily lasting a week without a charge.

Honestly this watch it outstanding. Does everything but reply to text messages. Battery last 2 weeks. It is super fast and easy to use. Great quality

I purchased this for my husband as a gift—an upgrade from his previous Garmin—and he absolutely loves it! The battery life is outstanding, far surpassing that of my Apple Watch. He’s especially impressed with the Garmin app features, which have exceeded his expectations and been a great asset to his fitness journey and active lifestyle. Highly recommend for anyone serious about their health and performance tracking.

My wife loves it! Got it for her to track her sleep and now she uses it for things I didn’t know it could do.

This is a great smart watch. The battery will last me 6-7 days on average. It connects well to my phone. This is my second Garmin. Nothing was wrong with my other Garmin, but I wanted an upgrade.

After having an Apple Watch for years I wanted to try Garmin for the battery life. I needed a few requirements to make this work. I wanted to be able to run multiple timers at once, and I needed to be able to do voice to text, read and respond to texts from the watch. I couldn’t do either. Apparently there were some work around for the timer issue. Some personal apps that others programmed. I tried to make those work but if I returned to the watch screen, it shut off my timers. I also realized Apple phones and Garmin watches don’t really play nice with each other. Garmin required three different apps to be installed just to have the connection to phone, the health stuff associated to my fitness stuff, and to install different apps onto the watch. Just not worth the hassle. With Apple and Samsung watches able to do most stuff the phones can do, this seems like a huge programming under sight by Garmin. Watch was returned after a few days. The only positive thing was the watch did look nice and the battery was still nearly full after a couple of days.

In summary, the Garmin Venu 3 is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a smartwatch with advanced activity tracking features, smart functionality, and comprehensive health and wellness monitoring. Its sleek design, combined with its ruggedness and reliable performance, makes it an attractive option for athletes and users with an active lifestyle.

I got this watch for my wife because her Apple Watch Series 9 requires daily charging. She absolutely loves the watch; it lasts her 5-6 days on a single charge. The Garmin app provides her with detailed feedback on her running and gym classes. It’s an excellent watch for both beginners and runners. Unlike the Apple Watch, just collected all the data but doesn’t provide any useful feedback. The only thing she wants is a smaller size 43mm option instead of the 41mm.

I liked the size of the watch personally. It is a perfect size. And also the display is clear to read. There is so much you can do with this watch as far as hiking or working out. The only thing i can complain about really is it is loaded with stuff i would never use. And stuff i would never learn to use. But the build quality is insane and it easily pairs to your phone with no issues. And battery life is insane. I can go 5 days min on a single charge.

Great purchase and well worth the money. The battery life is amazing and the display is next level.

I upgraded from an apple watch because apple watch kinda sucked and this garmin watch is way better than the apple watch, battery life is almost 2 weeks compared to apples 24 hours

This watch was purchased as an upgrade to my amazing Vivoactive 4. This watch is just a complete upgrade across the board: much better battery and display, improved sensors and more useful feedback. I primarily lift weights and do some moderate running, so I felt this watch to be the most well-rounded for my needs. If you are more multi-activity oriented, I find the Venu 3 to be the best choice at its price point.

Overall a wonderful purchase. Tracks things that i didnt think i wanted tracked. Helps with good healthy movements and decisions

It’s a good watch, I love use all the time, don’t need charger frequently

I had an Apple Watch for years and opted to get rid of it due to battery life and sleep tracking. This Garmin is great. Last for over a week with no charge. The bands are easy to switch out and dress up/ dress down or add some color. Easy to use.

Very cool watch, fits very nicely on the hand, very long time without charging, I am satisfied!!!!

The watch felt light on my smaller wrists which made it easy to jog and sleep with. The watch was more than generous with my steps. I went around a 1 mile path and it gave me credit for 1.42 miles. Also even though my older Garmin recorded my sleep this Garmin did not record anything. The settings were turned on.
