I had been using fitbit since 2019, and was going back and forth between a pixel and garmin. I read a variety of reviews and decided garmin seemed to fit my needs. I am very glad I went with them. This is a high quality and versatile watch that provides a lot of personalized information. It is a must have for anyone interested in biohacking and optimizing their time and performance. I can also download my spotify premium and use that for runs. I am so glad I went with garmin!

My first fitness watch and I’m very glad I chose Garmin. It motivates me in my fitness goals and surprisingly more, like understanding sleep stages and HRV. It provides positive encouragement and affirmation.

love the watch

I love my new Garmin. I had an Apple watch before but love the features on this Venu3S. It was an easy change.
One thing I notice is that the sync for the weather and heartrate doesnt always stay up to date on the face of the watch.
Not sure if I am pushing a button that I shouldnt. I use the Connect App and the Connect ID app . Once I go to the Connect app and reconnect it, its fine.
Thanks,
Julie

Best watch!

I’ve had this for a few weeks now and I am loving it! Been an Apple Watch girly for years and was so scared to make the switch but I wanted something with more fitness and wellness insights. This has it! It gives you info that’s useful and it feels so good to say goodbye to trying to “close those rings”. Love the sleep stats most of all. It’s very lightweight too so I don’t even notice it on my wrist at night. The battery life is also phenomenal!

This is my second Garmin. I had the Venue for many years and loved it but ready for something newer. This Venus 3S is very easy to use as it has a lot of better features and easy to figure mount as it is totally different in a good way. No complaints at all much better for me then the Apple Watch that I was dedicated to in the past.

Not ideal
on December 6, 2024

I bought this Garmin a month ago to replace my Apple Watch and have been somewhat disappointed so far. The “pool swim” function does not track laps if you’re doing kickboard exercises as it will only track your laps if your arms are moving. This has so far been the most disappointing function that I’ve found. The only other less frustrating functions I’ve found is trying to use the pause function during exercises whether it’s swimming or running or HIIT. Maybe I need to mess with the watch some more, but the pause function has been unfriendly as it will just reset and stop the exercise if you don’t unpause fast enough. So much for a pause.
What I have loved about this Garmin is the amount of data each exercise tracks and the battery life. For me these two things have been the only two thing that have surpassed my Apple Watch, especially the battery life of this Garmin.

Easy to Understand

It's easy for me to understand how to operate it. It charges in a short length of time. I'm so glad to have it.
