Just what I needed
Already has an old apple watch that I could have just upgraded to another apple watch but decided to get Garmin instead. My intended use was for health reasons especially monitoring my heart rate. Was debating between garmin and google. Very gappy with my choice. Very comfortable to wear at all times. The battery is excellent. Aesthetically pleasing. For me overall is a 5!

Great watch!
I am a big fan of the Garmin Venu 3s! It does a very good job at tracking your steps, sleep, etc. I very much enjoy the long battery life, which was one of my main factors for buying this particular watch.

Not for iPhone users
Nice watch, but…. I returned it. If you want to use it with an iPhone, it’s gonna be a disappointment. It’s not Garmin’s fault but it is still a bummer. The notifications don’t work properly, everything looks like you received a message but it is actually not a message every time. Sometimes it’s different app notifications. My iPhone dropped calls all the time when it was connected to my watch, so I had to turn my Bluetooth off if I wanted to talk to someone on the phone. This watch also does not start or stop recording an exercise when you go on a run and then finish it like every other smart watch on the market. Lastly, watch faces are very limited. It’s a beautiful watch though, I loved the look!
