Garmin Venu 3S

The AMOLED screen is bright and clear. The battery life is pretty great but if you are very active and using it to track multiple activities a day (eg. walking, plus biking, plus a weigh lifting session) then do not expect the battery to last much longer than a week to a week and a half. It’s lightweight, stylish, and packed with health, fitness, HRV, and sleep-tracking features. The large screen is easy to navigate, although there's a learning curve. There are a plethora of custom watch faces you can download, such as the one in my photo, which is packed with a ton of information, including steps, weather, flights of stairs climbed in a day, etc. My watch face is probably a bit overboard for most people, but the point remains that you can get as much or as little information on your main screen as you want. One of my favorite features of the app is the custom workout feature. However, it does not always calculate the number of reps accurately. It is easy to edit while working out, or go back and edit the reps after the workout, though. I also love that this watch tracks more specialized and niche sports, such as disc golf and snowboarding. The list is pretty extensive and it actually makes me want to try new sports. My one point of critical feedback concerns the text response and phone call features. While you can receive and respond to text messages, your only option for text response is to use pre-fab responses such as 'on my way' or 'I'll call you back'. I imagine there must be some sort of technical limitation, but seeing as I can use the assistant feature to dictate a custom one-off text message and send it, it would be great if we could use the assistant to create custom responses to texts that I receive. I also have not been able to get the assistant to work while my phone is locked despite researching and toggling multiple settings (I have a fairly new Android phone). Overall, this Garmin watch is a fantastic blend of fitness tracking and smartwatch features, with pretty great battery life and display quality. Highly recommended!
