Not perfect, but pretty close.

I’ve had my Venu-3 for about one month and like it very much. My 2 complaints are minor. #1, the documentation is not good. The manual is more a reference guide & less of an instruction book. It assumes you are already familiar with the terms used (like “glances”) without any explanation. My #2 is that although the watch is very customizable, there are annoying things I cannot turn off. For instance, during a quiet time (like a church service) it will vibrate to let me know it’s time to get up and be active. That said, I really like the health monitoring features like Pulse-Ox, ECG & heart rate.

Easy to use but periodically need to setup

Every couple months the watch tells me it doesn't recognize the connection to my phone. I have to scan the QR code and complete the setup as if it was a new purchase.
Otherwise, I like the watch. It's pretty easy to use and I love the Golf feature.

Great looking watch that fits well with an easy to read screen and easy good functioning touch screen and buttons. Activities are easy to track and are accurate from hiking to playing pickleball. Long battery life which is good for many activities and sleep tracking. Good for most people from serious athletes to the beginners that want a smart watch and fitness tracker.

I purchased the watch about 3 weeks ago and I'm very pleased with it. It performs well for running and listening to music and has great battery life. I was also pleasantly surprised by the sleep score and sleep coach and other health related monitoring.

My son brought his mother and I these watches as we have been walking 2-3 miles a day. This watch provides us with all the information we need at a touch.

Venu 3 a must have

This is actually my second Venu3. A replacement for the one I lost overboard on my boat. I was tossing a cast net, it snagged the watch ripped the strap and off it flew. I stopped on the way home to buy a new one! I have been wearing a Garmin it seems like forever. This is now my third over the years. I love the data and feedback. Paired with Garmin app on my phone it provides a great data stream of exercise results, daily activity and health data. I cycle, swim, walk, and golf. It is great at tracking my needs and data for all those activities and far more. Personally I can never imagine wearing a watch that just tells time. Honestly the Garmin watch has been transformative. It is great as a motivational tool to keep me going. The functions the Venu offers are all I need to keep very accurate track of my activity. The ability to customize the watch to user activities is great, simple and make it a very personal item. I highly recommend the Venu 3. For me it is a great mid level Garmin Not to large on my wrist very comfortable. Even for someone new to a smart watch I think very worth the upgrade over the entry level products. In the long run this will save you time and money because you won’t out grow its capabilities
