GarminVenu 3S Silver Stainless Steel Bezel 1.2-Inch AMOLED Touchscreen Display Smart Watch with 41mm Sage Gray Case and Silicone Band

I absolutely love my Garmin Venu 3S. It’s sleek, lightweight, and fits perfectly on smaller wrists, making it super comfortable to wear all day—and night. And you’ll want to wear it 24/7 because this watch is packed with features that actually make a difference in your daily life.One of my favorite things is the sleep tracking. It doesn’t just tell you how long you slept—it breaks down your sleep stages and gives you personalized tips to improve your rest. Add in the Body Battery feature, and you’ve got a pretty awesome way to keep tabs on how much energy you really have throughout the day.The Venu 3S also comes with a built-in speaker and mic, so you can take calls or use your voice assistant right from your wrist. The AMOLED screen is super crisp and colorful, and the touchscreen is easy to navigate whether you’re checking notifications, starting a workout, or queuing up a guided meditation.Speaking of workouts, there are tons of options—yoga, strength training (it counts your reps!), running, biking, you name it. It also has great wellness features like stress tracking, nap detection, women’s health tracking, and even an ECG app.Battery life is amazing too—I only need to charge it about once a week.If you’re looking for a smartwatch that keeps up with your life and helps you stay on top of your health, the Garmin Venu 3S is seriously hard to beat!

I used to be an "All In" Apple fan until the last couple of years when they really started going downhill. My daughter had started doing research on Garmin and told me about all the wonderful selling points on it, and I just couldn't believe it! I went with the Venu 3 in the men's version instead of the women's version because it gave me a bigger watch face. I wear reading glasses and want to be able to see it without having to put my glasses on for the smaller selections that I would need to see. Let me tell you what I found as a new Garmin convert!First of all I wasn't sure if it was going to like the round face as opposed to the square face, but I actually love it more. It took a couple of days to get used to the different ways of doing things, but once I understood how it worked I find I really like it more. The bottom button is kind of like your "go to" button on the right side of your watch. This button is your "back" button that you hit to go back a screen and finally end up at your Home Screen. If you want to record an activity or access one of your apps then you would press the top button. If you want to do an activity, you press the one that you want on the screen, and then you would press the button on the top to start it. To pause the activity or restart it you would press the top button again. If you want to delete the activity for whatever reason then there is a trash can on the top of the screen that you tap, it will take you to the next screen and you can either confirm that you want to delete it with the top side button, or you can go back because that is not what you want to do with the bottom side button.If you want to change your watch face, record an alarm or stop watch, or go to settings then you would long press the bottom button. It will give you the choice of "Watch Face", "Clocks", or "Settings". if you go into one and that is not what you want then you simply press the bottom button again to go back to the previous screen. Garmin gives you some really neat watch faces to choose from, or you even get the option of customizing one of your own.One thing I have to mention is how long the battery lasts! I was used to my battery draining by the end of the day, or way before if I was recording any activity. However, with my watch I can record activity or not and I can still have a ton of battery power left by the end of the day. When I don't record anything I will normally have about 92% left from a full charge. I decided to do a test to see how long I could go before I really needed to recharge my watch. I didn't Not record activity for this little test of mine because I wanted to get a fair assessment of how well it would work for me. By the 5th day I was at like 45% when I finally decided to that the Garmin was going to win in this stand off. I came to the conclusion that if I went on a week's vacation that I wouldn't need to bring my charger with me.I went with the Venu 3 because I wanted the ability to answer calls and read emails, while also being able to record activities. I still need to figure out how to turn up the volume on my watch when I am talking on it so I can better hear when someone is talking to me. Other than the volume thing, it is pretty straightforward on how to answer it.I included a picture of how the watch looks on my wrist as a woman with a small to medium frame. I love it and highly recommend it.I really love this watch and I am super glad that I went with the Venu 3!

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

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.
