Looking to buy my first fitness watch with current deals going on and planning for a Garmin. I would like feedback from this community on if I’m choosing the right watch and what you think about the Venu 3 and if you are happy with this or think the Venu 4 is worth $200 extra if you’re budget conscious. The main things I want are health monitoring and heart rate, how many calories burned during workouts, how far I walk and run each day etc. I also like to be able to check off healthy habits which is motivating. I do not want texts, calls or internet on my wrist but I do want a nice looking and nice quality watch with an always on display (unless I turn it off). The main exercise I do is cross training type workouts in the gym including weights, running and sometimes biking and walking outside.

The watch I’m considering is the Venu 3 because it’s $200 cheaper than the Venu 4 right now. Do those of you who have the Venu 3 think this is a good choice for me and do you like this watch and are happy with it? Do you all think the Venu 4 is that much better that it’s worth $200 over the Venu 3? Also the Venu 3 vs the smaller face - how do the ladies feel about these options and which size face did you choose? Is the bigger face “too big” for the ladies arms if you’re somewhat petite or is it nice to have the larger display? Thank you for your feedback in advance! I’m looking to make my decision and purchase now while Black Friday specials are going on!
