GarminVenu 3S Soft Gold Stainless Steel Bezel 1.2-Inch AMOLED Touchscreen Display Smart Watch with 41mm Ivory Case and Silicone Band

The Garmin Venu 3S is a fantastic smartwatch, especially for those with smaller wrists. The **AMOLED display** is vibrant, and the **fitness tracking features** are top-notch, offering detailed insights into sleep, workouts, and recovery. The **battery life is excellent**, lasting up to two weeks, which is a huge plus compared to other smartwatches. However, it lacks some premium training features found in higher-end Garmin models, and the price is on the higher side. If you're looking for a stylish, health-focused smartwatch with solid functionality, this is a great choice!

I'm so glad I bought this watch. I've had Samsung and Amazfit watches - this is better than both. Easy to set up. Phone takes 50 contacts. All of the apps work smoothly. Sleep tracking can be seen on the watch along with weather and body battery,-for the morning wake up screen. You can set Pay up on the center button for one swipe access. My only criticism is that it doesn't have Tai Chi as one of the sports to be reported. I can track vitals, and do an ECG if I have heart palpitations.Love the clean lines on the 45mm watch. Not too big for a woman, very light on my arm. Even the Smaller watches have ALL the functionality of the full size, just shorter battery life. No ugly buttons and winders sticking out and pointing in all directions. I can wear this with anything without looking like a wannabe jock. Loads of nice watch faces to choose from.All the functionality and 14 DAY BATTERY LIFE. Samsung and Apple need to get their acts together. This watch is everything their watches SHOULD be, for less money.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Amazing watch! We previously both had Apple Watches and wanted something more sleek that also tracked our fitness activities better. We are avid fitness goers and are very pleased with the fitness tracking and features of these watches. I wish we would have made the switch sooner. I run a lot and the insights this watch gives you are top notch. The body battery and sleep insights are also extremely helpful and seem very accurate. The Venu has been game changing for our health because now we have more data to better understand how our bodies are functioning!We didn’t like how our Apple Watches were constantly notifying us of every little thing and that is not the case with these. The notifications are perfect!

I abosolutely love this watch. I had a heart attack 6 months ago so I thought it was important to be able to keep an eye on my health and healing progress without needing all of the workout information and bulk of the Forerunners. This watch is the perfect size, has great battery life (I can go 2 weeks before charging, unlike an Apple you have to charge daily), and it can track all of my health measures including ECG, SPO2, heartrate, sleep effectiveness, and more. It also tracks my workouts whether running outside, on a treadmill, or just using a stationary bike. Also, my cardiologist and I are amazed at how accurate it is compared to their monitors! Oh, and don't forget the OLED screen. It's bright and brilliant, especially indoors. But I also have no issues seeing it in full sun. For me, it's the perfect watch. It won't track a triathlon for 17 hours, but it does everything I want and more. I also love being able to create custom faces for it. :)

I got the Garmin Vesu 3s to replace an apple watch to track heart rate after I noticed my apple watch showing out of the norm readings only a year after purchasing. I never would use a watch for medical advice, but it is nice to be able to note my basic heart rate for my chronic illness. I was advised to try the Garmin because it was built more for athletes and I chose the Vesu 3s because it can do an ECG. I am happy to report that I do like it better than an apple watch! It is slightly larger than the apple watch, which I don't prefer, and the band isn't as nice as the apple watch either, but the watch is more superior in my opinion. I like that the watch face can be customized more than the apple watch and so far it has been pretty spot on with my heart rate (I cross check its data with other methods of tracking heart rate to get a good idea). I am OBSESSED with the fact that it stays charged for so much longer and I can wear it to sleep. Don't love the charging as much. I wish it had a pad it could sit on to charge like an apple watch. It also has a whole host of other health functions to use as well. They give you a USB-C charger and I had to buy a specific converter for it; the chord also isn't long enough and finding a replacement that is longer is something you have to go search for. However, the charging function is simple and fast and works well. Overall, I can't complain about some of functions, I am only relieved that it is completely functional and seems to be living up to its quality so far!

I upgraded to this watch from the Lily. I absolutely love it so much. It is super customizable and you can show/eliminate metrics ets easily (there are lots of short YouTube videos to help you out until the systems feel intuitive). At the gym, my favorite feature is that while in an activity mode, I can scroll to a screen that shows my heart rate and zone in large, color coded font that is easy to glance at while running etc. I also rely on the ability to receive text messages on my watch and love that I can also see full color photos in messages. Great watch! Buy it!
