Garmin Venu 3 Silver Stainless Steel Bezel 1.4-Inch AMOLED Touchscreen Display Smart Watch with 45mm Whitestone Case and Silicone Band

Buh-bye, Fitbit
I’ve used Fitbits for nearly a decade. I wasn’t happy with recent changes in the app and wanted better health tracking. Also appears that Google is paring down the Fitbit line. I also did NOT want the bulk and weight of a smart watch (tried it, hated it). The Venu 3S is the only Garmin that fit my small wrist, and I wouldn’t mind if it were a bit smaller. However, the GPS on this watch rocks. If I want to use the watch for texting or phone calls, I can – but I disabled those features. Sleep tracking is more accurate than any Fitbit has been for me. Activity tracking is great. Fall detection is a nice safety feater. There’s more to this watch than on a Fitbit, so there’s a learning curve – but it’s not difficult to use. Venu 3S charges fast and holds a charge for days. I’m sold on Garmin. The features and durability are worth every penny.

I’m glad that I didn’t wait for my next paycheck before buying it
I was about to wait for my next paycheck before investing in this Garmin, but I am so glad that I just went for it! I didn’t notice that I had bought the S version rather than the standard, but the size is fine because I have relatively thin bones. The watch is comfortable and integrates smoothly with my smartphone, and I can sleep with it without any discomfort.I have been using this watch for a little more than a week, and ever since using this watch, I have been diligently reaching my walking goals and easily monitoring my heart rate and recovery time. Paradoxically, I used to aim for 5 heavy weightlifting workouts per week, but because this watch monitors my physiology with reasonable accuracy, I have started listening to its recovery time and heavy training “only” three days per week, and the quality of my workouts and focus has been ,much much better. (I was concerned about not burning enough calories, so I make up for that in steps while my muscles recover.)I have never owned Apple or Samsung watches, so I cannot say that this is “better” or “worse,” but I am aware that it was designed more specifically for comfort and fitness, and I could not be happier with this investment

Great value, nice looking, good features.
bought this watch for my 14 year old son who wanted a smart watch with sports capabilities. We went to the garmin because my son has a very thin wrist and most of the others were too large or had the rectangle shape which did not look nice. This, while formally a womans watch is really unisex and is a good goto for a small wrist. The weight is also acceptable for a kid with a small thin build, so should be good for most anyone. The other advantage of this watch is the good battery life compared to similar watches. He does not really use the heart rate sensor, however we have checked it several times vs a manual count and it seems to be doing a good job. He enjoys the sound quality and is connected to blue tooth quite a bit (need to remember the watch capapilities when we make him put away his phone and screens and the watch can connect to them). The color is nice, and now with a few months on his wrist – despite having a white band – it has retained its color nicely. Value for money – definately when comparing to other similar watches. I don’t think there is a good reason to jump to the next generation watch. Sports tracking is also working well, although it has not been through very rugged training and have not tried all that many different sports.

This is a great watch! It is much improved on my previous garmin. It’s smoother, easier to navigate and the battery life is amazing.I bought this one for my wife, this is the smaller version and she loves it.Back in 2018 she got an iwatch and I got the Garmin Vivoactive 3. They were life changing at the time, as we were very active in the gym and outside. It was clear that my wife preferred many of the functions on my watch that the iwatch didn’t have, although hers did look much better.My Garmin had battery issues back in 2021 and the iwatch screen got a crack in it last year (2024).So, a few years on, we are less active and want to get back to it. But I lacked the motivation. Then I remembered how I used to monitor my sleep, heart rate and training sessions on the watch and thought…maybe a new smart watch will give me the get up off the sofa I need.So I researched the best smart watches of 2024 & 2025…and this one kept coming up.So I bought two (2) this one for my wife and the larger one for me.They are brilliant, the Garmin App is much improved too, much easier to record my gym sessions.This watch can monitor your HRV, it can provide a sleep coach, it’s is sleek and stylish, and is better at dealing with messages and calls.I highly recomment this watch!
