How we checked

Garmin's official newsroom launch press release (source, dateline "OLATHE, Kan./August 30, 2023/PR Newswire") confirmed verbatim the $449.99 series suggested retail price ("Available now, Venu 3 series has a suggested retail price of $449.99."), "up to 14 days of battery life in smartwatch mode" (battery days=14), "beautiful AMOLED touchscreen displays", "GPS smartwatches" (gps=true), and "Pulse Ox" (spo2=true). All core health/fitness features run via the free Garmin Connect app and "free Garmin Coach" with no membership tier — the only "(subscription required)" note is scoped to third-party music services (Spotify, Amazon Music, Deezer) — supporting subscription required=false. The Amazon retailer listing (corroboration, model 010-02784-01, "Garmin Venu 3 … 1.4-Inch AMOLED Touchscreen Display … 45mm Black Case") corroborated "Display Type AMOLED / Screen Size 1.4 Inches" (display="AMOLED 1.4in"), "GPS Built-in GPS", "Battery Average Life 14 days", "Water Resistance Depth 50 Meters" / "5 ATM" (water resistance (m)=50), "blood oxygen saturation" (spo2), and "Wearable Computer Type Smart Watch" (form factor=smartwatch). Exact model = Garmin Venu 3 (45mm, 010-02784-01), not the 41mm Venu 3S; release year 2023 from the Aug 30 2023 dateline. ecg REMOVED on adversarial re-check: the cited source press release (dated Aug 30 2023) never mentions ECG and predates Garmin's ECG-app rollout; the original provenance justified ecg via a third, uncited "Oct 17 2023" newsroom release that is neither the source nor corroboration; and the fetched Amazon corroboration mentions "ecg" only inside a single customer review ("ecg and pulse ox accurate"), not in the product's spec/feature listing — not explicit spec support, so ecg left blank. 8 of 9 specKeys survive (>half) and price is sourced verbatim, so publish=true.
