Looks great, love all of the health features
Biggest value I get from this watch is that wearing it continuously (while sleeping, at work, working out) outputs super helpful health metrics. Had some revelations about why I always feel so tired and it helped me prioritize sleep. Also being aware of when I get stressed at work and taking steps to decompress has been helpful.

Great watch!
I’d been using Apple watches for years but I recently purchased the Garmin Venu 3 and I love it. The fact that I don’t have to charge every 3-4 days is awesome. Garmin is really stepping up in term of smart watches and in my opinion, they should be one of the best smart watch producers out there instead of Apple; that one is just for the brand.

Adequate
This watch works as advertise, but is a bit underwhelming. The clock faces are difficult to read and lack nicer sophisticated look. The controls are also complex to set or understand. The watches needs a way to convert exercising such as elliptical into total steps as well.

Awesome watch great updates from Venu 2.
I’ve had this watch for almost 3 weeks and I like it a lot better than the Venu 2 Plus I had. The upgrades for the walking app and golf app are awesome. A lot better info and graphics.

Excellent watch for health and fitness tracking
I've had it for over a month, and it is by far the best fitness watch I've owned. I'm very happy with the range of data it provides, including the ECG feature, sleep data, and stress monitoring. It provides the perfect balance between cost and features.

Amazing!
My Venu 3 was a replacement for an Apple Watch, and I couldn’t be happier. The Apple Watch did a lot, but not much well. My Venu 3 does so much right! I’m really loving the level of detail with fitness metrics. I now have access to more data than I know what to do with. The battery life is stellar, at least 10 days with my configuration, which is a huge improvement. I used to charge my Apple Watch overnight, so I never could see my sleep patterns. Not with my Venu 3! I should also note that the Venu 3 charges so quickly. An hour or two and it jumps from 10 to 100%. Overall a great purchase. I’m glad I switched to Garmin!

I like everything but the golf distance inaccuracy
My Garmin Vivoqctive HR finally died and Garmin was nice to provide a discount on my next watch but only certain models. I did the research and found the venu 3 to be the best choice for the price. I did see that only the high end Garmin Golf watches used all satellites available where the Venu3 doesn't which was disappointing. Once on the golf course I found it to be a 10-12 yard difference between the Venu3 yardage and the laser range finder and I compared it to other devices some of my playing parters had so it confirmed to be inaccurate. I now regret my purchase since while I wouldn't have purchased the top end Garmin golf watch which is out of my price range but I prob would have chosen a competitor device since accuracy in golf should be garmins top priority.

Smart watch
I bought this watch primarily for the health stats it can track, like hear rate, pulse oxy and sleep score. But I can monitor txt, answer calls, so many other thing.

Solid watch
This watch does everything one needs to manage one's fitness program. Plus it has a battery life that is measured in days not hours. Great piece of technology!
