    Came from Fitbit and I am super happy I switched. All the data (HR, miles, steps) are more accurate on this watch.

    Looks nice, but not intuitive, doesn’t update

    The biggest complaint I have about this watch is that it is very slow to update with phone apps such as weather and location, if it updates at all. For the last two days, it has shown me in another city even after updating manually using the watch app that is on my phone. I’m very disappointed with this watch….should’ve gotten another Apple Watch. The reason I chose this one was what I read about the battery life. It does shine over the Apple Watch in that respect, although if I could trade this watch in for an Apple Watch, I would in a heartbeat. I guess I will just have to wait until this one dies….

    Battery Drain

    I purchased the Garmin Venu 3S watch back in August 2024. I waited to write a review because whenever I buy a new product, it's always a fabulous purchase at first. You need to give purchases, especially tech, some time. Well, here we are over a year later and I'm disappointed. It's a great watch, don't get me wrong, but somewhere about 8 months ago, the battery level just disintegrated so much that I'm charging it every 2-3 days. When I first got the watch, the battery lasted over a week. I did nothing different to the watch since I first got it so I have no clue why the battery drain occurred. Forget Samsung Customer Service. Like many companies, you have to research on your own via "the community" and I have lost patience for this nonsense. All in all, even though the watch features are excellent, I would not recommend the Venu 3S. Getting that "low battery" notice on your watch when you are out with nowhere to charge the watch is frustrating and not fun.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Great watch but returning as an iPhone user. You can’t respond to messages or answer calls. Only know they’re coming in. Also doesn’t send stills of ring camera. Solid company and product, but I’m sticking with the Apple Watch

    Burned my skin a bit

    I like the brand Garmin but once I tried this watch it burned my hand somehow. After wearing it for three days straight it gave me a skin burn. I gave it a break of 1-2 days and the burned skin pilled off already. Not sure if its the band or the stainless steel that caused this but it made a circle like the bottom of the watch. I wanted to sleep with the watch on to track sleep but I am currently taking it off every night to avoid the burning happening again.

    I UPGRADED TOTHIS FROM A FITBIT, I WAS UNSATISFIED WITH THE BATTERY LIFE. SO FAR I LOVE MY GARMIN. I BELIEVE IT IS WAY MORE ACCURATE THEN THE FITBIT. I HAVE NO TROUBLE SYNCING OTHER APPS I USE TO TRACK STEPS/MILES ETC. I WISH I HAD UPGRADED SOONER. MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THE CHARGER ITSELF. YOU HAVE TO GET AN ADAPTER TO GO FROM USBC TO USB IF YOU DONT HAVE A MALE TYPE C.
