Garmin Venu 3 Overview
Garmin Venu 3 and Venu 3S was unveiled in the year of 2023, a significant upgrade from the previous generation Venu 2 and Venu 2 Plus smartwatches. Garmin has enhanced the heart rate sensor and introduced several new features focusing on recovery, health, wellness, and wheelchair mode feature, Garmin always surprise us. The Venu 3 aims to integrate fitness, health, and wellness while also complementing your smartphone with features like a built-in microphone and speaker for calls and voice assistant access.
Venu 3 Hardware and Design
The Venu 3 comes in two sizes: the larger 45mm case and the smaller 41mm case, both featuring stunning AMOLED displays. The 45mm has a 1.4-inch display with 454×454 pixels, while the 41mm has a 1.2-inch display with 390×390 pixels. These displays offer vibrant colors and high contrast, making the interface and watch faces pop.
One downside of AMOLED displays is their power consumption, but Garmin has managed impressive battery life. Depending on the settings, the Venu 3 can last 4-5 days or even up to 14 days with the display set to sleep when not in use. With the always-on display mode, you can still get up to 5 days of battery life.
Battery Life and Charging
Battery life varies based on usage. With an hour-long outdoor activity daily and no SPO2 tracking, I got around 4-5 days of battery life. Enabling SPO2 tracking for sleep reduced this to about 3.5-4 days. For outdoor activities, the larger Venu 3 offers up to 20 hours of battery life using the highest accuracy mode, while the smaller Venu 3S offers up to 15 hours. Charging takes about an hour and 20 minutes from nearly empty to full.
Navigation and User Interface
The Venu 3 uses a combination of touchscreen and three physical buttons. The upper right button acts as an enter key or to start/pause an activity, the bottom right button is a back button or lap key, and the middle button can bring up recent apps or enable a voice assistant. Customizable swipe and button functions enhance usability.
Smart Features
The Venu 3 supports voice assistants like Siri, Google Assistant, and Bixby, allowing text replies (Android only) and voice commands. It can also make and receive calls when your phone is in range. For music, it supports offline playback from Spotify, Amazon Music, and Deezer, and you can listen using the onboard speaker or Bluetooth headphones.
Health, Wellness, and Fitness Features
The Venu 3 tracks steps, calories, heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, respiration rate, stress levels, and intensity minutes. Improvements include detailed body battery tracking, nap tracking, a new sleep coach, HRV status, and recovery advisor. Body battery now provides detailed feedback on activities, rest periods, and sleep, with alerts for significant events affecting your energy levels.
Fitness Tracking
The Venu 3 supports a variety of sports and fitness activities, including running, cycling, swimming, weight training, and high-intensity interval training. New features include support for cycling power meters and smart bike trainers, workout benefits feedback, and specific algorithms for wheelchair users.
GPS and Heart Rate Accuracy
The Venu 3 features a new satellite chipset accessing five satellite systems, offering excellent GPS accuracy even without a multiband chipset. The new fifth-generation Elevate heart rate sensor provides improved accuracy across various activities, including steady-state indoor biking, intervals, road biking, running, rowing, mountain biking, and weight training.
Missing Features
While the Venu 3 has impressive features, it currently lacks ECG functionality. It also does not provide wrist-based running power or VO2 max for cycling, even though it supports cycling power meters.
