Garmin Venu 2: Ultimate Fitness Smartwatch 

I am 64 yrs.Started running.Did eight 10K runs in marathons.Recently on 17/12/2023 I bought Venu 2.

I watched a lot of in-depth reviews on this watch but this was the most practical and informative review by far. None of the other reviewers I had watched, mentioned that you could customize your workouts to suit your preset targets. I had an available budget of 200 Euro set for the Amazfit GTR 3 PRO, but after having watched this review.... what the heck. I deserve a premium treat! Thank you!

The best analysis on the Venus 2 so far! Thank you!

Thank you for the great video. The workout demonstration was insightful.

Favourite review so far, good job!

thanks great review.. appreciate the time it takes to put this all together.

Great review. Particularly, I appreciate that you went into the Garmin app.

The review is as fit as you are! Nice! Only problem is; I now want the watch…

Great review, helped me make my mind up, thank you

I got this watch for its ability to pair wtih the UDisc app which is a way to keep score while playing disc golf. I no longer have to get my phone out after each hole to track my score. I can just reach over to my wrist and put it in! BTW, the most impressive part of your video was doing 3 sets of 10 pull ups. Well done.

Great reviews with actual use of watch

Nice review, thanks! So now I can buy the Venu 2 and be convinced that this is the best I can one afford! 👍👌

good n clear explanations on the exercises

amazing video, thank you, geetings from Europe/Slovakia :)

Wow, really great review. Love your channel, style, and talking points. You should be way up there on the techie youtube guys. Keep up the good work! Talent!

Great video thank you agree with your view points also

Great review of Garmin venu 2.👍

Agree with you. Kudos from Belize.

very good review

Absolutely wonderful review 👏👏 I watched it for the second time, just to double check whether it's OK to say bye to Apple watch and get V 2 plus...mmm I am reluctant to.... I also noted, sooooooooo many touches to get a simple thing done 🙈🙈🙈 Garmin Pay is not popular in the UK, OK I can work around it, but it becomes even more headache at every transaction we have to keeping putting a pin ( again more touching) So I am kind of loss, whether to hold on till September for AW 8 or would Garmin will bring a another watch with better facilities/less touching before September..etc Again thank you very much 🙏

Thanks for the video! I am now getting this watch…😃

I really like the explanation . Easy to understand.. please make video review on the upcoming garmin instinct 2 and probably comparing it with this venu 2 . As the price are similar at both side. Thank u for the wonderful video..

Great review! How does this compare to the forerunner 255? That seems to have more health metrics.

Great review - are you still using the Venu 2 or have you moved onto something else?

Hi buddy thank you Is it possible to add 3rd party weight training app to this watch 2) Can we send activities to Apple Fitness app via iPhone Ta

A good analize for Venu 2...

is it possible to create custom workouts on the venu 2s please?

A good review, I found the level of detail accurate and informative, I picked this watch up up with company discount applied - £244 Cheers

Can the watch display the coordinates of the location we are in?

Grato pela videos

Not sure if my question will be answered but I just bought this watch and I really want to love it but coming from an Apple Watch background I’m so confused how to use it. I use RU-vid videos and fitness app to workout like strength training so what do I use for strength training? Not sure what to click or press to use that option

Thank you for you review. Great work! I have venu 2 and Im surprised how well it tracks want I do. I just hit strength workout and do pushups and it detects pushups, next i hit strength workout and do few sets of squats and it detects that i do squats this time.... I love this tracking possibility. Yes you mentioned almost every disappointment from them like left swipe.... But i really lack that recovery and training load tracking possibility from them. But more I use them more i realize that if they are Multisport, it's really hard to measure training load if it's not just running focused, it's really hard to make program that tells you you need to rest your legs because you did too many squads and run and dead lifts aso... So if you agree that venu i Multisport then i see why they dont include training efficiency and recovery into them. Its simply too hard to estimate this from point zero, no previous experience, Garmin simply don't know how to balance all kind of activities into one indicator.

Hi, does the venu continue measure heart rate? can I just disable continue harte rate?

$399 for me.. You did the best review I've seen on it.

I think most andvaces model curently is forerunner 945lte, and its very interesting path with lte subscription. Venu sq is lite version of venu (no animated workouts, and different baro/alt sensor). Venu2 is missing strawa live segments and maps compared to top garmin models but very nice fitness watch, nice video, thank you.

As a diabetic using a dexcom g7, can this watch be configured to display the blood sugar levels?

Venu 2 plus just came out. Added a speaker and microphone, curious if they've improved the smartwatch ui portion of the watch

Hey ! I loved the vid 😀 but i have a question about battery Life in venu2. I have 8.11 system version installed and after fully 100% charged it shows only 8days instead of 11 (like garmin says). How about you and the rest of venu2 owners ? Is it normal to stay only 8 days with No activities with 8.11 system or mine has battery issues ? No AOD, pulseox night only, autobrightness.

Hi, not sure if I should wait for Vivoactive 5? I have a Vivoactive 3 but not sure if I should upgrade now or wait for Vivo5? My main features I need are the speakers (new Venu 2 plus) and animated workouts.

Could you do a review on TicWatch 3 Pro Ultra GPS please :)

If you do different workouts each day, to save on creating an ever growing list of workouts on the watch, if you delete workouts of the past will that mess up your tracking? i.e. is the tracking linked to the workout so deleting the workout deletes the associated tracking? Also does the tracking inc details of the workout, even if deleted from the phone?

Do you still get the tutorial videos when you create your own workouts?

I've got one. There are some minor bugs in software. Otherwise it is a good watch. Liked ur workout t shirt.

Venu 2 can to workout trail run?

Good review,as you said it is too expensive.

Finally a great review! Can see you put in a lot of effort in this one :) But I'm not sure if I want to spend $599 on this watch when compared to a Apple Watch.

A lot of the features you mentioned are available in the Venu sq which was released 2 years ago and costs half as much.

Venu 2 doesnt have speaker. Have you heard about Huawei gt3? Mhmm maybe you will change your mind 😅

Returning my second venu 2 due to inaccurate steps. Brushing teeth and it’s counting 200 steps.
