If you’re not familiar with the Venu offshoot from Garmin it’s more of a smartwatch with less of a fanatical athletic performance approach than the Forerunner range. This one is designed to compete with the likes of the Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch series.
“Rather than an all-action sports watch, the Garmin Venu 3 is a wellness-focused smartwatch, with some decent elite athletics features,” our reviewer explains. “It puts much more emphasis on your daily life and metrics than it does on sports tracking.”
In that respect it’s a little like the Oura and Whoop trackers in terms of tracking your wellness as well as it does your latest run, swim or bike ride. We are huge fans of the device thanks, which arrived around a year ago, to great acclaim. There are an array of great wellness features, a premium build and super battery life.
We gave the Garmin Venu 3 a 4.5 star score and slapped a Trusted Reviews Recommended badge on there for good measure.
A top smartwatch with a focus on wellness
Pros

- Superb battery life
Cons
- Lightweight sports metrics
- Some patchy sleep data
- Not as slick as Apple Watch/Samsung
Our reviewer said you should buy if you want the “best Garmin smartwatch going.” He said: “The Garmin Venu 3 is visually a cut above, and has top heart rate and GPS performance, along with an excellent battery life.”
Furthermore, our reviewer added: “The biggest competition comes from Garmin’s own stable. The Forerunner 265 is a much better option for runners – and the Vivoactive 5 is simply a less premium looking version that offers most of the same features at half the price.”
