    Great display. Superb sleep metrics. Exercise recording/heart rate/O2 sat/respiratory rate/ gps seems accurate. Garmin connect and exercise plans/visuals a plus.

    Great sport tracker. I like the side buttons. Battery life is close to what is advertised. If you run a lot of things on it you get about 7-10 days. I researched a few different watches and really liked the features on this one. Taking calls is good but speaker could be louder. All monitoring works great. I did put a screen protector on it and it has saved the face. Band is good but wish there was another option besides rubber band. I have had this for a couple of months now and really like it.

    Bought it as a replacement for a Tic Watch Pro that stopped charging. Love this watch. Lots of functionality and easy to use. Only issue is the charging wire. Like other watches from Tic, Apple, etc., it needs a special wire. Worse, the wire plugs into the back of the watch. It's a tight fit and leaves the watch at an angel that makes it hard to see the face. Good news is that it charges quickly and I only need to charge it every 3 days. Also connects to my bike and to my Garmin bike computer so it tracks everything and every sensor. Also like the sleep function and that the watch face dims significantly once in sleep mode.

    First smart watch I have owned. Did not want to spend crazy amount on the high-end watches. I have used the Venu 3 to track sleep, body battery, track ECG and complete Health Snapshot. Happy with the purchase.

    It’s a very good watch. It can withstand all conditions it is put through. Water, getting dropped on concrete, corners, and even rocks. Never cracking. It also tracks very well and tells you everything you need and want to know all the time. The multitude of features on the watch such as music and how it tracks your heart beat. Also tracking my sleep to let me know when I didn’t sleep enough helping me get the right amount of sleep each night.

    This watch is great. It has helped me form some workout routines that keep my heart rate up while in the gym, counts my steps accurately and love how connect interfaces with my fitness pal. Battery lasts about a week and charges pretty quick when I charge it.

    First smart/fitness watch and I am loving it. The set-up was relatively easy, and the various features (i.e., training, sleep tracking, nutrition, etc.) keep me focused on achieving my goals. Further, the addition of the smartwatch capability in the Venu 3 was a big selling point. Lastly, I love how it integrates with myfitnesspal, which I track for my nutrition and workouts. Only thing I'm still trying to figure out is the text message notifications from my iPhone, which are not presently coming through to my watch.

    From Galaxy watch 5 Pro to Venu 3, worth it

    I came from the galaxy watch 5 pro and for me it was worth it. My biggest problem with that watch was the battery life and the venu 3 fixed it. I went from daily charging to weekly charging. Theres definitely less 'smartness' to the venu 3 especially compared to samsung but i barely used the smart stuff that the venu 3 doesnt have. Double bonus is i get a ton of new health features that encourage me to be better and see how my health is through out that day.

    This device is not too complicated to use for the everyday person, unlike some watches that are great but have too many functions, many that go unused. This watch is also hasa very nice design.

    As a long term apple watch user, I added this watch for its long batttery life. In particular, the extended battery life allowed me to wear the battery at night and assess my sleep quality. further, on days when I am outdoors exercising, I am no longer using up my battery life by early evening. The Garmin is a terrific addition and adds a lot of utility that I am unable to access with the battery life on my apple watch.

    The Switch to Garmin from AppleWatch and Fitbit

    Got this for my husband and he is loving it! He went from and AppleWatch to Garmin (I myself switched from Fitbit to Garmin in September 2024 and love it, hence his switch to Garmin as well...plus we can challenge each other on the app haha)! Fitbit was nice but Garming truly comes with so much more in regard to many aspects (fitness tracking abilities, styles, customizing, etc.). He has been wearing the Venu 3 for a couple weeks now and has truly enjoyed it. His only issue is not finding his band the most comfortable but luckily that is an easy fix since there are quick and easy band change options.

    I did a lot of research before deciding to purchase the Venu 3 45mm. It has everything that i have been looking. It has a big screen, multiple clock faces (you can add your own too), all the health data that you need and many more things. Give it a try and you will see how much you will love it. Very happy with the choice that I made. Only thing that could help on the next version would be charging the smartwatch. Rather than having a plug in cable, use one that looks like the one that is used to charge the iWatch.
