Garmin Venu 2 Plus Review: Premium in All the Right Ways | Digital Trends

 

The Garmin Venu 2 Plus smartwatch is a premium wearable and Garmin's first watch that works with your voice assistant.

Rock-solid connectivity

High price

“The Garmin Venu 2 Plus is a premium smartwatch in every way, including the price. But when you factor in rock-solid connectivity, a ton of data, and voice assistant control, it earns its price tag.”

Garmin Venu 2 Plus vs Garmin Epix: A Very Detailed Comparison

 

This might sound like an oddly quirky comparison, but if the comments section the last week is any indication – there are far more folks than I would have thought who want to know the difference. Thus, when you ask, I…umm…record a video.

Garmin Venu 2 Plus review: More tempting (and expensive) than ever

 

Last year, we called the Garmin Venu 2 a fantastic device that cost far too much for what it offered. Now, Garmin has released a new version with mostly the same specs but some small upgrades for $50 more. Despite that, the Venu 2 Plus may be worth the...

Beautiful AMOLED display ; New third button for customizable shortcut ; Animated HIIT workouts and muscle map ; Phone calling and voice assistants added ; Music storage, Garmin Pay, and SpO2 sensor

Quite expensive ; No LTE ; Slow syncing when adding workouts and watch faces ; Call speaker is a bit quiet

The Garmin Venu 2 Plus is an attractive three-button smartwatch that supports Google Assistant, Siri, and Bixby for nav shortcuts or calling contacts. Its 1.3-inch AMOLED screen is fully visible in direct sunlight, with a smooth refresh rate for great...

Garmin Venu 2 Plus

 

The Garmin Venu 2 Plus is a Venu 2 with a slightly trimmer frame and some new smartwatch-style features. But how good is it?

Tidier, slicker design than the original Venu 2 ; Excellent fitness tracking depth and versatility ; Can take/make calls

Speaker is quiet and thin ; No significant improvements to actual fitness tracking skills ; Digital assistant support is limited and clunky

The Garmin Venu 2 Plus is a Venu 2 with a slightly trimmer frame and some new smartwatch-style features. None of which are essential, but may be enough to sway you over to team Garmin if you’re deciding between a smartwatch and a fitness watch. The...
