Ratings & Reviews for Garmin Venu 2 Plus with Silicone Band (Black Case, Slate Bezel)

Great!

Great product, expensive but the quality and features are great.

Venu 2 Plus

The watch looks amazing and has a ridiculous amount of functions. Love using it for tracking my daily life and sleep, as well as some of my walks/runs

Good but I cant repair my glass in Colombia

I bought this watch and after six month I scratch the screen a bit and here in Colombia the official seller cant repair it or replace it obviously paying a fee, so, it basically I would need to buy another expensive one, its a shame.

From fitbit to garmin

I recently switched from fitbit to garmin. It does have more applications than fitbit. Only had it 2 weeks. Like it so far

Great Features, excellent display

Took a while to learn *all* the features (two weeks in and and I still have a bit to learn). But easy to use, provides excellent stats on both the watch on the Connect app. Was able to quickly add my favorite activities - Tennis, Pickleball, Spinning, Rowing machine, etc. and put them in order right on the watch.

Great watch

A sports watch with real gps and a lot of smartwatch capabilities.

Great all around watch for everyone

This watch does everything I need it to do, from tracking my workouts, to monitoring my sleep, to getting me back safely if I get lost on a run. I especially love having music with me without needing to carry my phone at the gym or outdoors. My only complaint is that it has a speaker. At first this was a plus, but then I realized that I don't really use it and all it does is add the possibility of me turning my music on accidentally if my headphones aren't connected.

Love my Venu

I have been very pleased with the features and GPS and workout tracking.

Really great features. Much better than Fitbit

I have it less than a month. Still learning full usage. Very happy at this point

A great product

I HAVE HAD THE UNIT FOR 3 WEEKS AND IT WORKS GREAT.

Solid smart watch

I bought the Venu 2 to replace a Samsung that stopped working. I've owned the Venu 2 for about 6 months. I love all the features and the battery length between charges. I did have an issue with fast drain but discovered it was a Bluetooth device trying to connect. The watch is easy to use, however I do not use it for the text messages, phone calls, etc. Because I save the battery for my exercises. I'm running farther, lifting more and improving my fitness level. The watch keeps me motivated! Gre...

I love this watch!

My wife got me this watch as a gift, and it is awesome. So many features! It even lets me make and receive phone calls right on the watch! We use Garmin GPS units in all our vehicles, even on our motorcycles. So I was happy to learn Garmin makes smart watches as well. I can even make a custom watch face using my own photo, which makes it the perfect watch for a certain.. seasonal job I do..

Love it!

I have a few Garmin watches and wanted one that was not as sporty as my Fenix. Meets all my needs and love that I can answer calls when needed.

Connection

I love my watch except that it will not connect to my Nordictrack equipment, my Venu 2 would connect but when I upgraded to the plus it won't connect

Voice features don't work

I've had the watch for about a month. The phone calling and voice assistant features do not work. The only reason I bought this watch and nothing works. Very disappointing. I've set all the settings correctly as Garmin shows in their instructions and restarted both devices and still doesn't work.

Absolutely Horrible!

I tested the SpO2 and it was consistently 5 points below my standard Oximeter and my old smartwatch. I tested the ECG against my standard home ECG and when my home ECG said I had Afib the watch kept throwing errors about not "able to test" me and when it could test me, the results were not even close. I returned the watch after 2 days. I'm very surprised that Garmin sells such an expensive watch without quality checking their product first!

Terrible UI - limited functionality

Used it for months until I caved and got an Apple Watch. Haven’t looked back at all. Apple Watch is 1000 more useful and doesn’t drop connection. Garmin app is problematic too. It’s just second rate. And expensive. Hard pass.

Great features but needs to be more durable.

I bought this watch about a month ago. I really like the features- the display is sharp with good color, the workout options are great, and there's plenty of useful info. Unfortunately my watch glass broke while doing yard work. In fairness it does appear something small hit the glass, but I don't recall striking anything. I've worn other watches which I know have received hard hits that had less damage than this watch. It does still work so that's a plus.

Excellent product!

Bought this about 4-5 months ago now and I absolutely love it!!! It does everything I need it to do! I mostly use the walking, heart monitoring, O2 saturation feature and things along those lines. Not a runner or anything like that but I do monitor my sleep also and it seems pretty consistent with how I feel when I get up. Helps me with alternating my habits to improve my sleep as well. The only issues I have is figuring out how to get my exercise biking time to read on the cycling or as steps a...

Has All of the “Must Have” Features ….

….of a smart watch while being totally health focussed. The battery life is outstanding, allowing constant monitoring for days without having to remove and recharge. Tons of different watch faces to choose from.
