    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.

    Gorgeous screen and great battery life. I replaced my Apple Watch with this and am very happy so far. Paired with garmin connect app the heath data is truly incredible. I have had a few minor hiccups with watch entering sleep mode but other than that garmin has won me over.

    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.

    So far ao good, I have owned this garmin for about 2 weeks coming from a galaxy watch 5. The health features along with the ability to make and store custom workouts is a huge win! Its a beautiful display as well as comfortable band i have no problems wearing most of the day. However, build quality for a watch this price is extremely underwhelming. Plastic casing for 400+ absolutely not. Samsung and Apple offer a much more premium looking aluminum build which is the least I'd expect for this price.Also has limited widgets and watch faces for a supposed smart watch/health entry for garmin. These things can probably be improved with time so I'll leave my review as a 3 for now because of the health features.

    Battery life is awesome, lasts for week with always on display turned off. Accuarcy is great with dual band GPS. There are multiple apps to download and responding to texts is not as good as Apple Watch. Best for those who are serious about fitness.

    Bought for my wife as she finally made the switch from an Apple Watch. She had a series 7 and had to charge it twice a day. Last year O switched from Apple to a Garmin S70. Love the fit, functionality, fitness & sleep tracking, and battery life. You get betting fitness and health tracking with 14 days of battery life! Make the switch and you won’t regret it.

    Much better for me than a Galaxy of Google smart watch. Very easy to read. Very easy to operate: does one thing at a time with font sizes I can read. Battery lasts a week. I won't go back to a "traditional" smart watwch.

    My daughter absolutely loves it. Perfect for running and easy to use. She has really enjoyed tracking her sleep as well. Unlike other watches that need to be charged every day, this she charges once a week.

    Great watch! Got this for my wife to replace her fitbit and it does everything she would like a smart watch to do. I have an older venu and have loved mine for years. This new one has a better screen, is alightly larger and has abilities to take calls. The one grip i have is that there isn't an easy option for voice to text in responding to a message. Her old fitbit did that with a click of a button. This garmin does not allow you to directly respond to a text via voice but you have to ask your assistant to send a new message to whatever person. Other than that flaw the watch is great so far!

    This works very well as a watch, and it's easy to select workouts. I'm also glad that it supports tap-to-pay! Also, this is easily the most comfortable watch I've ever owned!

    The Garmin Venu 3 GPS has great battery life, and I enjoy not having to charge the watch frequently. I moved away from the apple watch because the battery life is horrible. The watch is also light weight and comfortable and provides excellent exercise performance monitoring. Also, the Garmin Venu 3 GPS is a great looking watch. I highly recommend the watch for those moving away from Apple watch.

    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.

    Battery lasts forever, the exercise options are phenomenal, HR, fitness, and stress trackers are great, and the watch looks awesome. I love this watch and if you have an Apple Watch or Samsung watch do yourself a favor and switch over - 10 day+ battery life welcomes you with open arms.

    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.
