According to our smartwatch expert
With the Garmin Venu 3S Black/Gray, you're always aware of your health and your smartphone notifications. On the clear 41mm screen, you can easily read all your data and messages. You can also make phone calls with the smartwatch if your smartphone is nearby. With the new wheelchair mode, you get wheelchair-friendly workouts and advice from the Venu 3. You can even keep track of your sleep and naps with the improved, accurate sleep tracker. Thanks to the built-in music player, you can listen to your favorite music or podcast via your smartwatch. You can make contactless payments via Garmin Pay. So you can leave your smartphone and wallet at home while you exercise. The battery lasts up to 10 days with average use, so you don't have to charge your smartwatch often.
This watch is recommended for a 13 to 15cm wrist circumference.

I upgraded from the Vivoactive 4s and haven't regretted it so far. The battery life is very good and not inferior to the values in the specification. The screen is nice and sharp and with the many available faces you can clearly display all your desired data. The sleep tracking has also been greatly improved compared to the Vivoactive 4s. It is no longer the case that sleep is detected when you just sit quietly on the couch and it now tracks the sleep phases a lot better in my opinion and also automatically registers naps during the day. Body battery remains an interesting function that can be especially confrontational after a few drinks. There are many preset activities and workouts and GPS and heart rate tracking also works very accurately for activities. There is also more information about HRV and recovery times, but I need to dig into this a little more to form an opinion. Price is a bit high, but I don't regret my purchase at all.

Absolutely top watch! I previously had a Fitbit (which died) and this is the first Garmin. Despite the fairly high price, absolutely no regrets. Heart rate monitor is accurate, I also think it is suitable for cycling, provided it is worn on the wrist and a little further on the forearm. Sleep score corresponds to how I experienced the night itself, but I will have to wait and see whether this is as accurate as the Fitbit. The Body Battery is a useful function and often corresponds to my energy level, which I experience myself. The Garmin Venu 3s is ruthless (and confrontational) in the figures and facts it shows you when you take less care of yourself, start training too quickly or are stressed. The tips and coaching you receive are very useful! All in all, this helps and motivates me to monitor and improve my health, sleep, training and recovery time. Very happy with it! Recommended for those who want to get fit through exercise and take better care of themselves!

I am surprised by the enormous progress compared to my forerunner 45s. A lot of data is recorded that is interesting to improve your technique. The operation is easy.
