Smartwatches have helped provide deeper insight into daily lifestyles by allowing users to track how many steps they take or quickly check texts from friends. While Apple Watch deals may be tempting to jump on, Garmin has just released a new version of its popular Venu smartwatch that’ll have you rethink which tech accessory you want to wear on your wrist.


The Garmin Venu 3 was released on Wednesday (Aug. 30) and has been upgraded with new features that’ll not only keep track of your daily distance, but will be able to tell when you’ve napped and how it impacts your energy for the rest of the day. As a more evolved feature, the latest model includes wheelchair mode, which can track the number of pushes rather than steps you take in a day. Plus, you won’t have to worry about charging it often as it’s designed to last up to 14 days without a charge.


You can choose between the Venu 3 or the Venu 3S — a smaller version of the Venu 3 that offers improved sleep tracking — depending on your needs and style preferences.


You can shop the new release now at Best Buy or below.
