Which should you buy?
The T-Rex 3 is the clear pick on raw spec strength, leading by 17.7 points on the Mars Score. The margin is wide enough that the underdog only makes sense if its individual strengths line up with what you specifically need.
Pick the T-Rex 3 if your top frustration with your current device is running out of charge before the day ends — endurance is the lead spec here. The biggest gaps in its favor are battery life, peak brightness, display size, among others.
Pick the Venu 3 if you carry the device everywhere and weight or thickness has been the deciding factor before. Its strongest claims are weight, ecg.
Both ship with comparable cellular, spo2, so those specs don't separate the two — focus on the differences below.
