The Garmin Venu 2 Plus and Garmin Venu 2 are two watches that promise to offer a great run tracking and smartwatch experience. If you had to go for one though, which should you go for?
Tester Mike has been testing the Venu 2 Plus and has already spent plenty of testing time with the Venu 2 to see how they match up as running watches and to see what you'll gain or lose by going for one over the other.
(NOTE: US pricing for the Garmin Venu 2 Plus is $449.99, not $399.99 as we stated in this video)

Been super happy with the Venu 2 now that the software is all buttoned up.

Looking for a new watch so this was super helpful. Thanks mate

@footballhd1111 2 года назад

Which one did you end up buying if I may ask?

@ColeRunning 2 года назад

@@footballhd1111 I haven’t yet unfortunately. Still can’t decide.

It would be nice to point out which watch is which when you're explaining. I can see that most people here seem to know but as someone knew to this, it can be confusing. Good video none the less.

@Pennicito 2 года назад

Video helped me devcide to keep the Venu 2, I don't really like the idea of a mic on my wrist, lol.

@Lynn-zw7dr 2 года назад

Thank you I'm buying tomorrow white and gold 2 plus 👍🏻🇬🇧🙂 edit, first one was faulty green flickering screen, another new one arriving today!

Excellent review of the 2 watches 👍

@jackt7331 2 года назад

Venu 2 plus is in fact thinner than venu 2. Bracelet is also 20mm vs 22mm

@jackt7331 2 года назад

Just dropping by to say that I first bought the venu 2 plus and it felt too small for me without the bezel, so i returned it and got the regular venu 2. I like it much better.

@alicejungdesign 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video, now I know that the Version 2 is enough for me ;)

nice review, thx so much

@markrainforth7189 2 года назад

I had the Garmin venu 1 and I was going to get the Garmin venu 2 but I got a really good deal on venu plus 2 so I got that one for the same price as the venu 2

@gd8931 Год назад

Hey, I have a question. Is it possible to record and save an audio recording with Garmin Venu 2 Plus? Thank you! :)

@grbta1124 2 года назад

Thanks great teview!

@danieloherrick6332 2 года назад

I wish Garmin had kept the 22mm band on the 2 Plus.

@jackt7331 2 года назад

me too. Kind of a deal breaker. I also wish it was 45 mm instead of 43

@henrielkouby895 2 года назад

great video !!!! it will be also interesting to compare the venu 2 to the Fenix 6spro. now (after the Fenix 7 launch) the price difference is around 50 $ only ... I'm hesitating between this 2 (switching from my Vivoactive 3 music watch) . it will be great to have your honest opinion 🙏

Can a person disable the call and texting features if they wanted? My GF wants a fitbit but not have the calls/text tied to it

@ndmukuk 2 года назад

Superb. Thank mate.

@janmudicka 2 года назад

Would you choose rather venu 2 plus or huawei gt runner? Thx

@nickdew6813 2 года назад

Is it better looking because it's smaller watch but same display?

@SkaiSharku 2 года назад

Garmin website is showing like 22 hours on the plus, without music.

@wissamchalabi7535 2 года назад

Question: For me the main difference is that the Venu 2 is all plastic (which feels cheap for a quite pricy watch imo) while the Plus has a metal backside. Do you feel that difference? For example in comfortably wearing the watch for a few days. Thanks!

@TheRunTesters 2 года назад

Yep, the backs are different, but I can't say that the plastic versus metal felt all that different to me day-to-day and from a running perspective.

@wissamchalabi7535 2 года назад

@@TheRunTesters Thanks!

@paulkline3011 11 месяцев назад

I'm actually glad my venu 2 is all plastic. I tend to sweat alot and all the metal watches I've ever had start to rust. So ya for me I prefer plastic.

@wissamchalabi7535 11 месяцев назад

@@paulkline3011Thanks. As an update for those interested: I did get the Venu 2 (plastic) a year ago, and I love it, I've used it daily and it's a great watch and still works as new.

@adrianb.4430 2 года назад

I have a Vivoactive 3 and was wondering if I should wait for Vivo 5 (whenever that might be) or get the Venu 2 Plus ? Main features I need is the speaker (for outdoor gym sessions: music, take phone calls etc.) and animated workouts. Shall I wait a few more months for a potential Vivo 5?

@philu3 2 года назад

So, they're essentially the same watch, except that the Venu 2 plus can take calls with its speakers and microphone? No big deal really if you carry your phone with you.

@erinhardenberg7660 2 года назад

Hi there - being able to make a call from my watch (without having my cell phone with me) would help me to make the decision. That being said, will I be able to make a call or send a message from the Venu 2 + WITHOUT having my cell phone nearby?
