I bought through Garmin directly. I had a forerunner 45 and I was happy with it. I wanted to upgrade with sleeping app and it wet on sale and bought it. It has a larger face, better band and a few more tools, I may never use. It's been about a month and no issues.
So far so good, However, the sleep score can be off by as much 1hr or so. Also, having problems w/connecting to Amazon music. FYI...I do have an account w/them.
The Venue 3nis the perfect compliment to my Edge 1040 Solar. Tracks off bike activities and wellness. Got it to assist with altitude acclimation tracking as well as HRV.
Great size and I like that it accepts different style bands. Would recommend if this is the niche you're looking to fill.
Best battery on any fitness watch. Started with an apple watch but hated that I had to charge it constantly. First charge was after 8 days (25% left) and I probably could have worn it another day or two without needing the charge. Love the features in the app to build my own workouts then have it record my movement accurately.
Bought it a few weeks ago, it's helpful with fitness goals, which is what I primarily got it for but it is also a capable smartwatch with texting and calling and the whole deal. Good purchase
I am a longtime Garmin user having different models from top end to vivo's. I love the design & how its feel on the hand, great big screen compare to the top end which are heavy & bulky. You added almost all the features most appreciated. The Watch face must have more options like adding the date, temp....
I owned a Fitbit before and are very happy a switched for a Garmin. It takes a little, after 3 years Fitbit, to find my way around in the menus, but it’s ok now. Statistics for heartbeats, HRV, stress and body battery are great and better then Fitbit in my opinion.Also some activities are there now that I missed in the past. I did not check the golf app but looks promising. I still are discovering new nice features. I would by a Garmin again. Best: no monthly charge for all features.
