Seemed nice, but went with FitBit.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned and kept the fitbit sense. My wife like the appearance of the sense more, and already had a fitbit account so she wouldn't he ave to start fresh with Garmin.

Nice watch

Not so good.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My husband got this watch and he was very happy with how the images were so bright and clear on this watch but after a few days he started having issues connecting the watch with his phone and also the watch started giving him the wrong time. He exchanged for another one hopping this one will work, we thing something was wrong with this one.

Down grade if you previenes an Apple Watch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a big downgrade if you went from an iWatch to Garmin, it’s not completely compatible with an iPhone than it is with an android phone.

Great watch
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this for Christmas. It fits well and is easy to setup. There are so many options on what to add and track. The watch faces available allow you to pick so many different styles and stats to track.

Comprehensive Activity Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Device works as stated by Garmin. Didn't give 5 star's as I would like having Schwinn Airdyne exercise preset download availability.

Amazing! Accurate!

Great watch!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As advertised. Great for people sports or workout minded. Has exceeded my expectations. Wish the battery life was slightly longer, but it doesnt take away from use.

Underwhelming
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I run division one cross country, and can say confidently that this watch is not acceptable if you are serious about working out. Pros: -Looks pretty, and can be worn just about anywhere. -Not too big -Has some cool stats if your interested in that stuff -Can hold your playlist (although I haven't got mine set up because it's a pain in the butt to figure out) -Can connect to Strava and the Garmin Connect App for more detailed figures related to your workouts. Cons -The GPS component is far less accurate than other watches I've owned, even compared to other Garmin Devices. -Charging is terrible. It's literally a coin toss whether my watch will charge over night. This may be due to the poor quality of charging cables which may be a problem across Garmin models. (Isn't it a shame that Garmin works so hard on their watches but can't get a cable right?) -Interface is beyond annoying. Definitely turn off notifications for step counting goals or whatever before a workout because it can screw up your splits and even make you accidently delete the workout mid-run. -Of all my teammates, I know for a fact that I have the worst watch. Coros Apex and Apex Pro are likely to be better choices.

Not the greatest to use with android phone
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not the greatest to use with android phone because you can't answer calls on it and it's very limited compatability with Samsung.

Better than the Vivosmart 4!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 4th Garmin device. I started with the Vivoactive and then upgraded to the Vivosmart both the 3 and 4. This smart watch outperforms all of my previous devices! Would definitely recommend this to others.

Great smartwatch!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had a Fitbit for years and I've had nothing but bad luck with them. This Garmin venu is AMAZING!!!! However, the battery life isn't the greatest if using the GPS. That's the only downfall so far

Nice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for my wife to replace a fitbit. She is really enjoying it so far. A big step up from the faltering quality of the fitbit line.

Just not for me
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used this watch for about a week and ended up paying a little more to switch to the Galaxy Watch 3 mainly due to not being able to take phone calls on this watch. The other benefit was the Galaxy Watch 3 has the "ability" to monitor blood pressure in a round about way which is intriguing. Otherwise the watch function was good and comfortable but for the price I didn't feel I was getting everything I should get like the Galaxy Watch 3 offered.

Best Smart Watch Ever!

Not consistent
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although the features in this watch are amazing, unfortunately it is not always accurate. Counting the stairs sometimes work and sometimes doesn’t, calculating the pace during running had many issues. You can be running the same pace, but the watch keeps changing the pace. Also when you use the custom faces, the watch response become very slow. Sometimes syncing with iPhone has some issues too.

Great!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Boyfriend is immune-compromised so it’s great that it has an oxygen monitor for him especially since he’s an android user, since they can’t use apple watches with their phones
