    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.

    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.

    Great watch, Perfect size for smaller wrist, not too bulky. Easy to use and customize. Wish everything was in one app to control the watch instead of in multiple different ones. Cute and classy.

    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.

    A beautiful watch with Garmin’s most up to date features. The bezel has a stunning appearance, the screen is bright with brilliant resolution and it comes in 2 sizes for fitment preferences. 5 stars for Garmin’s flagship smartwatch. There are so many options from Garmin these days that it really depends on who you are and what you do. Unlike the completion that makes you pretty much conform to their products. I have had the VivoActive3 and Fenix Series and they each served a great purpose (VivoActive was an affordable activity tracker smartwatch, Fenix is an amazingly durable everything smartwatch with long battery life and this is a classy everyday smartwatch with activity tracking and updates biometric tracking). Garmin really is the most innovative smartwatch maker and most accurate tracker.

    Previously owned Apple, and Samsung watches. This garmin watch is hands down the best! Over a week of battery life, with all features turned on, and without having to turn it off every night to charge it. Now i can finally track sleep time, which i could not do with Apple, or samsung due to having to charge it every night.. Game changer..

    She loves it. Going from an Apple Watch to this Garmin. The battery life is night and day difference, lasting days longer. She is stilla ble to see notifications on new watch. She loves the sleep tracker, notifing her on the quality of rest. Apple does something similar but with battery life it was never an option.

    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!

    I have always been an apple person and after getting this garmin I will never go back to an Apple Watch. The specs on this thing is insane. I absolutely love tracking my sleep and the notifications when I’m getting more stressed throughout the day. It’s super lightweight and as long as I dry the watch when I get it wet it doesn’t give me a rash!! Battery life for me is at least a week.

    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.

    This watch is amazing. It combines the best of a real fitness watch and a smartwatch. Only upgraded with the forerunner 570 for marathon training, otherwise this watch killed it.
