Garmin Venu 3S Running GPS Smartwatch with AMOLED Display, Advanced Health, Fitness Features, Up to 14 Day Battery Life with Signature Power Bundle | Soft Gold with Dust Rose Silicone Band

I bought this because my beloved Vivoactive 4S died and is discontinued. Extensive research found there isn't really a successor to that model (the new Vivoactives don't compare). Family referred me to the Venu 3S and it is just what I was looking for! The screen is beautiful but doesn't drain the battery too fast. The health and fitness tracking lines up with my needs (I mostly play tennis and use the cardio function for it), and I'm happy to have the sleep coach that I didn't have with my old watch.The package from this seller is a great deal and worth every penny! I love having the watch charging station and I'm using the power block to charge my phone as I write this review 😊

I use this watch everyday on walks, running, and biking. It can be set for any activity. Very helpful. I like that it is able to get wet, so if it rains I can still use it. It tracks miles, time, calories, heart rate, and can check heart rhythm. It does a lot more, but that is the main things I use it for.

I didn't know what I was missing out on. I had fit bit for years, and after my last one doed in me for no reason, i figured it was time to change brands. Yes the fit bit is cheaper but this watch battery last longer on this watch. It has more features, and feels so much more rugged. So far I have cut down a tree, split the tree into fire wood, done hiliking, swimming and for walks with it. Not a scratch on it! The features and customizable features are amazing! I love how it reminds time to be active on office days and it reminds me to drink and keep track of my water intake. I am not disappointed at all and I doubt you will be either. After a little "getting to know you" period you won't miss your old watch.

Love the overall build and quality. It took short time switching from an Apple Watch to fully understand how it worked. It is very accurate and tracks a lot. The sleep tracking is one of my favorite features. Alarm and function is great as well.

Love the smooth edges of the face and the strap color combo.It’s way easier to use than the previous version however the font size is smaller and I need readers to read it which is annoying.Like the nap recognition, and the body battery display is helpful.The volume for phone calls is ok. The music volume is great.Can change the screen with a photo which is cute.Easier than previous version to utilize modes such as ‘hike’.I think it’s a little bit pricey but the stand charger and add ons ease the pain!I did buy the additional screen protectors and need to stick it on but I’m not sure if it will ruin the aesthetic and feel.

I am a long time Garmin fan. Three generations of their smart watches. For a review I think I will just stress that I am an Apple Fan-Laptops. Desktop.Tablet. Phones. Pods. Where I drew the line was with the watch. Having to charge a Smart Watch each and every day is not in my DNA. With heavy gym-workout usage I charge my Venu 3 once a week. It's range of capabilities is competitive enough and since I am not an Apple music user I am more than satisfied with my watch. The only thing I traded on the VENU 3 is that I have big hands/wrists and it is a bit smaller than I would have preferred, but only marginally. The charging stand in this package is absolutely useless. I use the separate charging cable which is very good.

Upgraded from my Vivoactive 4. Battery is phoenicians, usually lasting me at least 3-4 days of regular workout usage, display is gorgeous, and the fit is fantastic. The included accessories are also fantastic, especially the charging stand.Only thing to keep in kind is if you’re coming from a transflective screen, this one is AMOLED, and while it’s not difficult at all to read out in the bright sun, it isn’t ‘as’ easy as transflective. The trade off is having a gorgeous, sharp looking display at all times which works for me as my watch is as much an fashion accessory as it is a tool for fitness.

It’s ok. Just ok. Def not worth the high price tag that I paid for it. I would much rather use my FitBit. Yea it looks nice but for what I need it for which is sleep tracking and activity level I’m better off with a Fitbit. Plus, the heart rate monitor has consistently been off. I’ll be jogging and the machine says my heart rate is 150 but the watch is telling me it’s 70. Yes, I’ve adjusted the tightness or the band. It doesn’t work. There’s no way my heart rate stays between 50-75 all day every day. It’s just wildly inaccurate. I never had that problem with the Fitbit. I’ll be relaxing on the couch and get an alert that I’m experiencing high stress levels but I’m literally laying down. I wish I could return it but of course I’m out of the window. My only option is to list it on eBay or something. VERY mildly used. I went back to my versa.If you do end up buying it, the battery life is pretty good. Again, not as good as the versa but it’s comparable
