Customer Ratings & Reviews

Does so much love this watch. Has pulseox battery holds up well. I have pulseox on all the time and does not drain the battery too fast One gripe cannot answer calls which is kind of annoying but not a big complaint

Love the garmin products for my aqua areobics since it is water resitant. This watch has all the features I need. It keeps my steps and heart rate and is stylish too. Just what I needed.

This is the best watch EVER! I was using my iPhone watch and some of the other runners had Garmins. This does absolutely everything I need and more. Highly recommended!

Bought this to replace the for bit which two of those watches broke within two years. My husband loves all the health days in this watch and is way more sturdy

Watch is easy to set up and sync with my phone. Still learning all the capabilities as there are many features I'm discovering while using. Battery life is about five days and charges overnight.

Love this watch better than my Apple watch. Monitors heart rate swimming biking and running I charge it about every five days versus my Apple Watch that would have to be on the charger nightly.

Wife loves it. Saved a lot of money over an Apple Watch and it still does what she bought it for... to help her track her fitness goals

love this watch. I am a fitness guru and this has helped me get to the next level, always used fitbit but this was a better fit for me.

I witch apple can make a watch with all those features. And that long battery life. But Garmin missing the basics: Text and phone call. Nobody wants plastic of anything.

Love the Garmin Venu, my husband both got these in different color ways. Product is amazing, price tag is steep, but you do get what you pay for ;)

I retired my fenix 3 for the venu. Very small and light compared to the fenix. Good graphics and colors. GPS connects quickly. It does all the great things you need from a run watch. The music connection works well with bluetooth headsets and you're able to use other music apps. There are some minor annoyances: the always on feature doesn't work with downloaded watch faces; the watch needs to be connect to garmin connect via the computer so that the gps remains fast; wish it had the wireless charging like the iWatch; there are no audible alerts (only alerted through vibrations). Overall, very cool watch.

Really one of the best running / fitness watches I have owned. Incredible battery life. Screen is a little unresponsive when trying to change watch faces.

This is a good watch with activity tracking features. I like the GPS capability for outside events. Not super convenient for notifications and phone / music controls.

Overall, I am really pleased with this device. I had a Vivoactive 3. The metrics that this watch provides is extremely helpful (I am a data nerd). I also like the vivid screen. Initial set up was a nightmare, however. It seems that the phone was preloaded to add Spotify and another app to the watch. This was preventing me from being able to download the watch face I wanted in Connect IQ. Literally, it took 6 hours for my watch to properly set up. I have pretty decent wifi, so I can only guess it was the large apps that slowed down the process. When I had my Vivoactive 3, it took less than 5 minutes.

Battery life lasts several days, screen is sharp and colorful, fitness tracking seems accurate, and Garmin Pay works in most stores that accept mobile payments.

Enjoyed all the features I’ve used but haven’t fully utilized all it’s benefits. I’ve had fun with the HR and sleep monitor, and the exercise widgets. GPS works well.

I had an apple watch but after a while it juat feels like a square iphone strapped to my wrist. This watch looks, feels, and acts like a watch- not a computer. Yet it has all thw features I want in a smart watch. It worka surprisingly wrll with ios, despite what some others have said- i can see calls and texts, and any other notifications. You fant make calls from it, but do people really make calls from their watch? That has always seemed like a novelty that nobody ever truly uses in any meaningful way.. I could care less. Ill use my phone as a phone. Non-problem problem solved.

Good watch. Lightweight. Helps to wear tight for accurate data collection. Battery lasts several days and charges in an hour. Can link with iFit.

I was a little skeptical about giving up my old Forerunner but this has been a welcome addition. I’m enjoying the updated functionality and features.

Nice watch with lots of features. Definitely recommend this product. Battery life is really good when compared to Apple Watch. Charge remain for 3-4 days.
