Not a bad watch but I preferred Apple products so I returned

Let me start by saying that this watch was great, when it worked! Unfortunately, there were times when it would freeze up, not charge correctly, or lose battery quickly. I used it everyday through vigorous sports and workouts, but unfortunately the screen died on me a few months before its two year anniversary. Loved it, but might need something a little more rugged.

Great watch for all actives! Wear it all the time to work and fun.

Easy to set up. Heart rate and saturation seem to fairly accurate

work good, could stay on clock for longer periods of time. don't know all the options yet.

Bought this for my boyfriend. He loves it! Great fitness watch.

Love it! Venu 3 Worthwhile upgrade from vivoactive 4

Great watch. Very simple to use. Extremely good for training

Can understand why i spent 4 years with an Apple Watch.

worked great when I first got it and the ECG worked really well. Then one day the ECG app disappeared and no matter what I do I cannot get it back. Garmin tech support was no help. Internet search says Garmin updates removes the ECG app without warning but this isnt a Beta and I am in the US. Disappointing and I will try to find something other than garmin that will work.

A big improvement over the previous model! Can make calls!

The watch delivers on the promise. battery life is good.

Maybe my expectations are a bit high from having several other high end smartwatches, however, this Venu 3 is nowhere near an Apple Watch in terms of build quality. The straps feel flimsy, the casing is mostly plastic. It is incredibly light, and quite frankly it feels like a toy. The Garmin software is what saves this from a 1 star review. The insights and advanced heath stats it can pull are extremely helpful. Much better for runs, and seems more accurate than an Apple Watch in terms of the HR and Cadence Tracking. Do yourself a favor and get one of the nicer Garmin watches. OR, go in and try them on first! Ended up with the EPIX Pro. OH, and battery life was around 3 days when I had all my settings accurate with Always on Display, nightly O2 reading, and the watch face I liked. VERY disappointing as 10 days was advertised. The EPIX Pro actually gets 10 days of use with my (harsh?) settings applied.

Good all around, easy to use, stylish. Durable. Easy to pair. Amazing battery life.

Great active smart watch. A big update from the venu I had before as it was the 1st gen.

Excellent Garmin Forerunner 965 and long battery life

I usually don’t leave reviews but I don’t want to see anyone waste their hard earned money like I did. I previously owned the original Garmin Venu and I absolutely loved it. So when the Venu 3 went on sale over Christmas i decided to give it a try even after reading a few bad reviews about the hate rate monitor seeming to lag or give inaccurate readings. I wish I would’ve went with either a different model or different company because the heart rate monitor is awful. It lags and seems to be playing catch up majority of the time while working out. I’ve tried moving the watch to different positions on my write, I’ve even reset it. Save your money and get something else.

Battery life IS great! All working so good till now.

The charge doesn't last but maybe 5 days and I didn't use it very much.

Good not great. Watch band too small some function in sub sub menus
