    Really happy with this watch. I've had it about 10 days and it works nicely. Some pros: sleep tracking, fitness tracking, tap to pay, battery life, durability, and find my phone. I'm not a huge fan of the Garmin app but maybe I need to give it more time.

    He loves his new watch. He always had an apple watch. But we decided to get this Garmin watch and so far, no complaints.

    The watch has great fitness tracking including a body battery metric. The screen is on par with the Samsung Galaxy or Google Pixel watch but the battery has lasted me over 5 days between charges. It also has interactive notifications including being able to respond to text messages and answers calls from the watch.

    Such a great upgrade from my Samsung Watch 5. Absolutely love the health tracking, getting all notifications, answer text and calls. Galaxy has nothing to compare to Garmin Venu 3. Excellent screen, long battery life (12-13 days no problem), really smooth interface. Nice. Highly recommended for Android (my phone).

    Good fitness tracker

    I’ve owned FitBits for a little over eight years. So my reason for getting the Garmin was that the last two fitbits didn’t track elevation. This was a little annoying on my bike rides. I also don’t believe the fitbits I owned tracked my heart rate too well during active workouts when I’m sweating. With that said, the fitbits I’ve owned in the past is my baseline for my rating of the Garmin. The Garmin is built nicely. Good premium feel and quality. I have yet to scratch the screen. The health tracking is great. The only thing I feel is off is the sleep tracker. I for comparison I’ve worn my old Fitbit Inspire 3 and this Garmin. The Garmin always says I’ve slept more than the Fitbit. The difference was less between the two when I would sleep within the duration of what I set as my bedtime and when I wake up. But when my sleep was off and I stay up later, the Garmin is thrown off. So that’s something they need to improve on. Otherwise this thing goes beyond what I need it to do. I want more watch face options. They have a few different faces to choose, with customization you can do to them.

    Great overall watch. Great battery life and great fitness metrics, apps, etc. However, the ECG function is basically useless. It will give a report of being in Afib when in reality my heart is beating in sinus rhythm with PVC’s. Don’t get this watch if you need a legitimate ECG function. The Apple Watch is much more reliable in monitoring heart rhythm.

    Watch is very accurate and not to mention very light. I sleep with this watch every night. It has been very helpful in my health tracking. Battery lasts on average 11 days. Golf tracking is good for it not being golf specific. GPS is accurate along with heart rate and calorie burn.

    Purchased as a replacement for my original Venu. After one week of use, can confidently say it is a significant upgrade. Better display, sleep monitoring much improved, added apps and activities, along with faster overall response. Glad to have made the upgrade.

    I’ve had this watch for over a week and have no complaints so far. I love it. I use it for rowing, sleep tracking, and general health. It’s genuinely more enjoyable to use than my Apple Watch was. I highly recommend.

    Game Changer

    My Garmin has been a game changer! I love that it can track my sleep, stress, workouts, and so much more. The battery life is great as well compared to previous smart watches I have owned. It will last about a week (sometimes a little longer!). It is also super lightweight on the wrist. I am very happy with my purchase.

    It's great it honestly is, I use it for my anxiety and to track my episodes through the stress app along with heart rate. For that purpose its great. Also works well for workouts. Only issue I have is the function with my pixel phone. Using Google assistant specifically. If you want to use this watch for it's full potential and have a pixel phone look at some of the blogs about the issues between the two. Setting up voice assistant is nearly impossible and doesn't work well. Apparently the new Google update causes the issue from what I've read. I don't use the watch as an extension of my phone but as an additional tool. So I can look past it. If you can't set up the voice assistant, you can't respond to texts, make calls, add things to calendar. You can still listen to music (control your music), see notifications (reading and dismissing them is all you can do). All the other functions the watch comes with work incredibly well such as the stand alones you only get with the watch; heart rate, sleep score, workouts and so on.

    Watch is not as advertised

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I thought I would write this review after having the watch for a year and a half. After talking to Garmin for the last year and a half they’ve done absolutely nothing to help me with my problems. The first one is the heart rate the heart rate is always catching up to what you’re doing. For instance if I’m working out with weights or dumbbells, it shows a low heart rate when my heart is beating fast and then once I get up off a bench arm upright then the heart rate catches up and actually goes over what my heart rate actually is. The second thing is, it keeps telling me that I reached my step goal, even though I haven’t gone up any steps that day, it has something to do with me working doing exercises on a mat and on the floor with my arms that triggers it. Also, if you just go up the hill walking or running, it’ll trigger it. The sleep score is also a joke if I fall asleep at 10:30 and I wake up at seven for some reason it will only start recording my sleep at 1:30. It misses my sleep specially if you wake up during the night, even for a minute. I don’t know how they tell this watch for all the exercises it has and for all the sophisticated physical fitness people out there that are using these way more intensely than me. I don’t trust the watch and the watch is basically a fraud. The only thing good about it is the battery life. Also the customization for the watch there are many faces, but you can’t customize what is on your watch face, for instance I wanna put miles on my watch face, but I can’t. I have to always have steps listed. There’s watches half the price to do with this. Does this well and on top of that the Garmin customer service people are a little bit snooty and have told me that these are the limitations of the watch and you have to live with it or elsewhere a chest heart monitor well then don’t advertise what your watch can do. If you can’t do it in the beginning I thought it was way better than a Fitbit and it’s got a lot of more features butI bought it for fitness and it fails in this regard. 62 year-old male active in fitness and it doesn’t work for me.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
