Venu 3, 45mm GPS smartwatch, AMOLED touchscreen, all-day advanced health & fitness features, voice functionality, music storage, wellness smartwatch with up to 14 days battery life, Black

I'm Very Happy with this watch! its brand new and it work perfectly The shipping was super fast and it arrived right on time, which was great. The screen is really bright and easy to read, and it makes tracking my steps, heart rate, and sleep totally effortless. I was worried I’d have to charge it every night, but the battery lasts for days, which is a huge relief. It's comfortable to wear, looks great, and all my phone notifications pop up right away without any issues. If you want a solid, reliable watch that works perfectly straight out of the box, you will love this one. Highly recommend!

I bought this to replace my mark 1 Venu. So far, I'm very impressed. It's comfortable to wear, holds its charge for days, and has loads more functions than the original. Activities are easy to set up and operate, and it downloads to the Garmin App on my phone easily. I like the way the brightness drops at nighttime, but I do find the daily sleep assessment very irritating. I got it at a decent price, and the pain was lessened further by using some vouchers! All in all, so far, I'm quite pleased with my upgrade.

10/10 best purchase I've made in years. Only take it off to recharge every 7 days. I have reasonably skinny wrists at 7" around. The watch is the perfect size, however I will probably choose the 43mm if I ever upgrade for the bigger screen. I work a physical job on sites and have hit it on vans, walls and rocks whilst digging. So far I have 1 tiny scratch (barely noticeable in certain lights), and some paint stuck in the rim where I hit it on the door frame. I've ran 200km and had perfect interactions with it even whilst sweaty. Worn swimming twice and all good. I wear the rubber strap and clean it daily in the shower. The recovery time feature is pretty inaccurate as that should be tracked around your upcoming work/exercise. However, the HRV, body battery and sleep score is fantastic! As somebody who has struggled with staying up late for 16 years (at the cost of my health) and was averaging 4.5 hours sleep a night. These stats make it much easier to put personal limits into perspective. Hoping the Venu 3s lasts me for years but I'd 100% buy another the same day if I ever lost/broke this one.

I’ve been using the Garmin Venu 3S for a while now and it’s honestly such a great smartwatch. The design is sleek and comfortable, perfect for everyday wear, and the battery life is impressive. I love how accurate the fitness tracking is, especially for steps, heart rate, and sleep. The display is bright and easy to read, and the health insights are really helpful for staying on track. Overall, it’s a reliable and stylish companion for both workouts and daily life!

This was an upgrade from a Huawei Watch GT2 that I'd had for several years. That finally succumbed to water after I'd been swimming with it too many times, but otherwise "just worked". This Venu 3 is expensive, but works pretty well and looks good - it's not too big on the wrist and doesn't scream "WATCH!!!" or get snagged on your cuffs. A couple of issues: 1) when I first started wearing it I was gettign a weird pain in my left arm which I finally realised was due to the fairly pronounced bulge on the back of the watch digging into the top of my wrist! I now wea the strap looser and this has resolved itself - took me a while to figure out the connection though! I'm not a huge fan of the silicone strap, the Huawei Watch GT2 came with a leather one which worked better for me - it's much easier to make sure you always use your preferred hole because the leather moulds and marks itself to make that hole obvious over time - you don't get that with silicone. 2) I had issues with sync not working. I keep my phone on do no disturb all the time and reply on the watch notifications from selected apps to tell me of important stuff. After having had the watch for some time, these notifications just stopped. The solution was to wipe all the app data and set it up again from scratch - but I never had to do this with the Huawei Watch GT2. Hopefully it was a one-off but we'll see. It's pretty comfortable, doesn't feel heavy, and once you've taken time to learn what the buttons do it's easy to use. I have managed to scratch the display a little, so perhaps Garmin could have used a better grade of protective glass - it was done by some metal, which I was quite surprised & disappointed about. I've decided that I'm not going to wear any more smartwatches swimming because they're too expensive to replace when water inevitably gets in them, so aside from the scratch I can't comment about durability other than to say that it feels fairly well made. It is still getting software updates on a fairly regular basis, and luckily I wasn't affected when Garmin sent out a dud update that broke a lot of their watches. The display is good, and battery lasts about two weeks - though I don't do anything with the GPS on it. The app does what you'd expect. It comes with a USB C charger cable. None of my chargers have a USB C socket on them, and the cable is only about 30cm long anyway. So I bought a USB C to USB C coupler, and that allows me to use the same cable I use to charge my phone (USB A from the charger to USB C plug). I've also now bought a little adapter that goes from the watch charger socket to a USB C socket, which I keep in my laptop rucksack in case the watch goes flat when I'm away from home.

A really well rounded smart watch. I worried the face would be to big & chunky but it fits well. For this reason I purposely chose the 3s. My previous watch was a Fitbit and connectivity was always erratic but this one is so much more superior. All texts, calls & notifications come in quickly with no loss of connectivity. The one minor issue is when your phone is on silent (with no vibration), your notifications still buzz through, so make sure you put it on 'do not disturb' if you don't want to be disturbed. But that's easy to do, it's just remembering to do it sometimes. It's great to track walking routes, monitor gym sessions and the smart features make life so much easier. It's smart features are fairly easy to navigate too. You need at least a week's worth of wear before it gets used to you & your activities, to get the full use of all the statistics. I've had it for a couple of months now and it still looks brand new. The screen is very clear with so far, excellent durability. Yes, the price makes you pause, but to be fair, it's probably more value for money than Fitbit. Fitbit ALWAYS stopped working after 2 years. I can see this one lasting a lot longer than that but only time will tell, I guess! The battery lasts well over a week. It's a push for it to last 10 days, I'd say, but it charges fast so it's not really any kind of inconvenience. The app is easy to navigate and pretty self explanatory. I find the stress feature & body battery particularly interesting. The statistics matched to how I felt when very unwell one week, so that was fascinating to see! I've just purchased my dad (a big technophobe), the Venu SQ as that one seems a bit more suited to him & his lifestyle. It seems a better match if price is problem or if you won't utilise all the features of the venu 3. Once you try Garmin it's unlikely you'll change to anything else after.

This watch is more a smart watch than a fitness watch, which suits me fine as it does everything I need plus extras if needed. Some reviews say it's not overly. Accurate on some stats BUT, comparing the figures to a hospital oximeter mine at least is pretty much bang on. How you wear it makes no difference either on the outside or the inside of the wrist, set it for the functions you personally want to see, and forget the rest. No electronics like being overworked. I have the Venu 3s and it's size is perfect for the smaller wrist, the strap is soft and comfortable to wear, although it has a speaker and microphone it is still waterproof/showerproof. Battery? ... After 3 days it has only lost 14% of a full charge and during that 3 days had been 'played with' and explored extensively. It can change watch face to a low energy or dim red display at night time if desired, it can give a morning briefing if desired, it also integrated seamlessly with my Samsung phone, the Garmin app is flawless and keeps everything in check including updates, downloadable content and a full breakdown of all recorded data from the watch itself. Value for money? Five stars Battery life? Five stars User friendly? Five stars Looks? Personal downloadable choice Overall quality? Five stars If you want a smart watch the Venu 3s by Garmin is my number 1 choice. Recommended.

The watch itself is fantadtic,nice and light, easy to see and use, love the buttons which are eady accessible. (All my hardware is update and working, signal strength excellent). Issues Connectivity, no matter what it was plugged into it would lose connection within seconds. Wifi, phone, laptop. Stopped syncing with everything., this was just the setup, no customising. 1.Watch updates must be done from the watch, not the app. 2. Software updated, kept locking up and stopping, watch freezing, had to hard rest 4 times. It tuck over 8 hours to update the watch due to disconnections, excluding customisation. After installed the update watch went slow, it had lag. 3. The passcode was a nightmare, setting it up was seconds, however if you wanted to change anything you would be asked for the passcode then make the changes. This watch kept asking for the passcode no matter what.at first I thought Im putting it in incorrectly so I did it wrong and I was told it was wrong atleast that worked. So lucky we could turn it off in the app. 4. Space limitations, ran out of space after 3 new watch faces added, even after removing the ones which were preinstalled. Why not do what others do allow u to put what you want on instead of limitting space. 5.disconnection alerts when you move away from your phone did not work, funny thing was it worked when you were next to your phone. 6. Battery, seems to go really fast, 19% in 5mins was bad. 7. No security tag on box, the watch face cover was in the box not on the watch itself. Labels on box say new, ive never had any labels state this on any brand new product. Ive had it on renrwed, refurbished products. I can only assume I had a faulty product. My friend as the same watch its works fantastic, looks amazing does the job.

1 month in and so far quite impressed with the watch. I'm just recovering from some virus and looking back at my body stress graphs over the past few days has given me a fascinating insight as to how my body has reacted to the virus. Low stress levels were replaced with very high levels overnight while my body did battle with whatever this flu-like virus is. I didn't want to fork out double the price to get a watch which gives me full marine functionality, but I've added a couple of apps via Garmin Connect IQ which i can use while sailing that give me basic course and speed. Also tides, weather, tracking... whatever floats your boat you can download an app and add to your watch menu! The only small issue I've found is neither of my bank cards are supported on Garmin Pay. With current set-up between the apps running in the background and about 10 alarms currently set I'm getting about 4 days battery life. If I put on charge while getting ready in the morning - say 15 mins - gives an extra 12% or so.

I bought this to replace my aging Fitbit Sense, which wasn't charging well anymore. It had the promise of using the phone's voice assistant, which was better than the Sense 2 which only has access to Alexa now. It's Bixby given I'm on a Samsung phone, but it's better than Alexa and it can control stuff on the phone remotely from the watch which is a cool bonus. I did not have any appreciation for the massive difference in health tracking between a Fitbit and a Garmin when I pressed Buy Now. Every feature of the Fitbit is here in some form, both subscription features like readiness score (recovery) and enhanced sleep metrics to all of the basic stuff. Lots of things that are restricted to while you're asleep on the Fitbit work at all times on the Garmin, like respiration and blood oxygen. The sensor and LEDs on this are much bigger than on a fitbit and are much more sensitive to highs and lows in heart rate that fitbit can't pick up. The stress detection and body battery features are really cool and seem accurate. Fitness age presents an unflattering but likely pretty accurate picture of my health after wearing the watch for a few days. Everything is customizable on the watch and in the Garmin app; there is even a feature to design your own watch face with a photo background of your choice and the placement of the watch elements and complications where you choose them. You can put what is important to you front and center and you can ignore anything you don't care about. Both the watch and the app require a bit of messing around to get things looking the way you would like, but it's easy and I had fun poking at the watch for hours making everything perfect. There are a LOT of pre made watch faces included with assorted complications, some of them configurable and some not. The one pictured is not configurable but it displays exactly the stats I want and looks good. There are several included faces that look great so you aren't forced into their store right away. It is ironic that there is a working YouTube Music app for Garmin watches but not for the top of the line fitbits. I have loaded my likes playlist to the watch, which loaded almost 300 songs in the same order they are in on the YM app. This took a while and I left the watch plugged in while it downloaded over wifi. Connecting headphones was really easy and I set the "shortcut" swipe from left side to open the music player. I have used the watch to listen to music instead of my phone on some walks and it's a great experience. I am very fond of this. It's an upgrade in every way from a Fitbit Sense. It's the Samsung phone of fitness trackers with all of the bells, whistles and options you could ask for and some you didn't know you wanted before you got the watch. Worth the 600 bucks.
