I need to buy my wife a smartphone that is compatible with the voice and messaging functions of the Venu 3s (calls, WhatsApp voice messages, etc.), has anyone paired it with the Mi 11i and can you tell me if everything works well? A thousand thanks

It works with almost every Android phone that meets the Garmin Connect requirements(except certain Huawei phones). Check the link below for the requirements. Mi 11i is a fairly recent phone and all the watch features should work with that.

thanks a lot
You're welcome
I bought the Venu 3s for my wife and Mi11i... unfortunately the voice assistant doesn't work on the Venu 3s because it always says "unlock the smartphone first" and then you might as well use the smartphone to make the call. Let's hope for a future update....but I have my doubts.
There are settings you can customize to keep your phone unlocked in some situations. Please review the 'Smartphone Voice Assistant Optimization' section of this FAQ: Setting Up Voice Assistant on Your Garmin Watch
For further assistance please reach out to your local Garmin Support team.
You can check the Garmin-Inder link below and you need to specifically enable: Assistant on your Lock Screen and then it will work without unlocking the smartphone.
That's the incompatibility problem. I enabled voice assistant during the lock screen but it still doesn't work. Must be a smartphone problem. Thanks anyway for your support. Maybe future Android updates will fix this
Some have suggested turning on Personal Results too. Try that. Also, make sure Hey Google Hotword is activated.
Go to Assitant Settings> Lock Screen. Assistant responses on the Lock screen should be On, and below that you will see Also get personal results...., turn that to On also.
i'll try.thank
Let us know if it works...
