Save $150: The Garmin Venu 3 can be yours for a new low price of $300. That’s the price for both the black and white versions, so be sure to pick your preferred color before ordering. This model was a CNET favorite and was only knocked out of our best smartwatch list by its successor.
Unfortunately, we don’t know how long this price will last, but we do know that it won’t be around for long. These limited-time deals can end at any time, so keep that in mind when planning your order.
Garmin Venu 3 smartwatch
$300 (Original price: $450)
The Venu 3 offers comprehensive health and sleep metrics, and unlike some competitors, you won’t need a subscription to access the reports. The large screen is a nice feature, and it has an impressive battery life, lasting about a week on a single charge, according to CNET expert Lisa Eadicicco in her hands-on review. You’ll also get all the fitness features you expect from a top-tier smartwatch. However, there are some downsides, such as the small app ecosystem, lack of a home button and slow app downloads.
If you’re looking to track your health and fitness goals, the Venu 3 is a great choice — especially at this price. Other options are available if this model isn’t the one for you; check out the best deals on Fitbits, Pixel Watches, Galaxy Watches and Apple Watches.
Alternatives you might like
The Venu 3 is still a great smartwatch, but it’s now been replaced in Garmin’s lineup by the Venu 4. That newer model is also on sale right now, with prices starting at $500 rather than the usual $550. Again, we don’t expect that price to last for long, so consider placing that order sooner rather than later.
