The watch is very cute, it have great battery and it’s very light

Great gift for someone who is needs to see their basic metrics day to day. impressive battery life as well!

I purchased this watch as a Christmas gift for my daughter. She originally wanted an apple watch but after researching this watch, I found this will give you more bang for your buck. And my daughter absolutely loves her watch! First the battery last a minimum of 5 days and charges fast. It has so many apps for an active life style. My daughter is always working out and she loves that her watch notifies her on how many hours she needs to rest for all the workouts she's done.

I love this watch. I can edit the home screen, I can see it outside! And I do not have to charge it every night. You can keep the appl watch because to me it doesn't compare. Emergency features are nice. I'm over 60 and it was easy for me to set up. I'm tech savvy but even for someone who is not, the initial setup and pairing was simple. I'm still learning all the features. I have a very small wrist just over 5.5" around and it works for me. You can turn your wrist and the time will appear. I can say bye bye to my fitbit. So far answering the phone is a little odd but I don't think I can report on that yet because I am not sure how close you have to be to your phone. I won't comment on durability yet because I don't know that.

Amazing, does everything I need it to do. Still navigating it but liked how it tried to connect to an exercise machine to gather the data.

Love it. Aesthetically speaking, it has a very neutral and elegant appeal to it. I have very small wrists and it is the perfect size. Battery life is great, love exploring all the features and customizations. Very easy to use.

I love the accuracy of the step counter. There are so many features that I am still testing out and I have found everything to be useful. I love that I am able to track every type of workout and being able to download music while tracking a run so you can leave your phone at home is an awesome feature. Would recommend to anyone trying to upgrade their fitness journey.

I am thrilled with this watch, as it boasts a plethora of fantastic features. The standout feature for me is its exceptional battery life, which provides ample warning before needing a recharge. In some instances, it can last a day before requiring charging again. Additionally, this watch offers ECG monitoring, allows text messages and phone calls to be received, is comfortable to wear, and has an aesthetically pleasing design. I find it superior to the Apple Watch, especially considering its more affordable price point.

Bought this for my mom's 60th birthday, total success. She loved it and can't stop commenting how much she loves it and how much healthier she is now. Stylish design and heavy duty build. Being able to change straps for different looks is also great. Highly recommend!

Best watch I’ve owned. Sooooooo much better than the Apple Watch I had previously.

Great watch. Switched from the Apple watch just to have more metrics and longer battery life. love it!

Got this for my girlfriend for Christmas and she absolutely love it. The battery life on this is long, only has to recharge it every couple of days after constant use. It has so many features to it and she loves that she can change the digital face of it and it changes throughout the day.

Very helpful with tracking workouts as well as monitoring my health.

Took a little time to figure out at the capabilities this watch had, but afterwards it has been great. I love the look of this watch and it has been such a huge plus in my fitness journey. Love this watch!!

I've owned this watch for almost a year at this point and I am absolutely in love with it! The S size fits my wrist perfectly, you can customize it with new bands or screen protectors off Amazon or Garmin's website and it connects flawlessly with my phone which, yes, shows me notifications, but also allows me to type messages or call friends and family from my wrist without issues. As a women the safety aspect of the accurate GPS tracking that it sends my Mom for when I go out for runs alone is the biggest pro of this thing especially when I had a scary moment a few months back when I abruptly had to stop mid-run to call the cops. It feels super safe knowing my parents could find me if something were to happen but its also helpful during races for them to know all my stats in real time and see when I'm approaching the finish line. This watch was super helpful for my run training and while not having as many extra run-specific extra functions like daily workout suggestions or training readiness, it was worth the trade off for the wide variety of other activities, stats, and the true smart watch feel. I can also use the Garmin coach program with this watch or if I want more run workouts ready-made for me, I can log onto the Garmin Connect website and join one of their many other free training programs! It has a sleek, non-bulky look to it and I've gotten compliments when I'm out and about. My coworker who is training for a full ironman is jealous of it and is thinking about buying a Garmin because of my praises and I'm currently buying another to give my mother, who has health concerns, for her birthday! One downside is that BestBuy gave me the run around when I bought this. I had an absolutely horrible experience with customer service as well. I bought it with the expectation I'd get it within a few days and it ended up taking nearly 2 weeks! For two of those days the tracking said it was at the store but when the pickup wouldn't update to tell me to come in I tried calling customer service to see if they could contact the store to have them look for it. Turns out zero of the customer service lines I went through actually worked in the store and they said they had no way of contacting the store itself which I was amazed by- like you work for the same company but there's no behind the scenes number you an call your own stores? And there isn't a public number either? They also kept giving conflicting information- while one of the first customer service members were able to give me the direct tracking info so I could watch it move through the mail system, another said they couldn't see any of that when I swore up and down it said it had reached the store. I was literally a day away from going down to the store to demand my watch or $500 back when I finally got an email that it was ready for pickup. One super long wait in the pickup line later and I was given my precious watch. I don't regret buying the watch but next time I'm ordering it from Garmin directly. Also yes this works with the Garmin HRM Pro chest strap!

Loved the watch, but it wouldn’t properly track my sleep every night. I would wake up with only 2 hours of sleep some mornings, other mornings had a full track. I think I had a lemon.

Great durability and battery life. A few features from my Apple Watch that I doesn’t have:( Great smartwatch especially for workouts

I love this watch! I was an Apple Watch person for years. This watch is so much better and the battery life is crazy good. I’m so glad I made the move to Garmin.

Great watch! I love how accurate it is and looks so very elegant. The best feature of the Garmin Venu 3s is the morning report and the battery life of almost two weeks. I previously had a Fitbit and was deciding between the Apple Watch or Garmin and honestly do not regret choosing Garmin. It connects with my phone flawlessly.

I’m new to smart watches. I wanted one that would track my walking and yoga, mostly but really enjoy the health tracking features too! Easy to navigate and is very comfortable, even at night!
