Great health track

I have had another Watch for years. No complaints on the watch but I have been eyeing the Venu 3 for a while for additional health/sleep tracking. It was worth the switch! I have had it for a few weeks now and thought I haven’t used all the features, the sleep and workout tracking alone are great! The work out modes are simple to use and have additional features then what I’m used to (ie. rep counts for strength). I like the sleep mode at night to encourage a good night sleeps and it’s comfortable to wear when sleeping (something I was worried about since my previous watch didn’t last a full day and I never wore to bed).
This arrived a few weeks ago and I thought it would have some of the features in the less expensive Vivoactive - why on a device focused on health not include smart alarms but the vivoactive does? :( Otherwise, no complaints. Love the form factor, screen, etc.
I've had this watch i want to say a month now and works very well. I'm loving the battery life and how bright the colors are. Does a good job tracking steps and heart rate and all that jazz.
So many comments on internet regarding the Venu 4 but nothing from Garmin and out of frustration I purchased the Venu 3 discounted. I would have purchased the Venu 4 had some one advised when timing of release would be.
Not happy but I did want to move away from Apple being an Apple user since first release.
I really like the Venu 3. As you use it, it gets to “know you.” It really helps and motivates me to stay on track in my weight loss and exercise routines.
My electrophysiologist wanted me to purchase a watch to record my episodes of AFib so I chose this one. Love the features it has but my only gripe is that the watchband sucks big time. Already looking for a replacement
