    This is a great fitness tracker, tracks all the necessary things. Fitbit has better sleep tracking, but this has much better coaching, gps and activity detection. I do love this watch! Looks good too.

    Great watch for training. I have been using mines for some time now and I love it. My 5k and 10k have improved significantly with the Garmin Coach.

    What can i say this watch is great. The gps works great on the trails. Heart rate, body battery, and sleep apps all work perfect. My watch is a big part of my workouts and coming from the Samsung active models this was a huge improvement as far as durability and function during sweaty times. Works great in the water as you're still able to use all functions. Battery life is amazing coming from my last brand. I usually charge this one once a week as with the other it was daily. The only thing i miss is the talk to text function which is great but i've learned easily to live without it. I could go on and on but lets face it this is just a review from a random buyer. So go try it for yourself and you wont be disappointed.

The stunning AMOLED display is a visual delight, bringing clarity and vibrancy to every interaction. What truly sets it apart is the comprehensive health and fitness tracking—its ability to monitor everything from sleep metrics to on-device workouts makes it an invaluable companion for anyone pursuing an active lifestyle. The inclusion of built-in GPS has been a game-changer during my workouts, providing precise tracking without the need for my phone. And let's talk about the joy of streaming music directly from the watch—complete freedom from carrying a phone while exercising is a game-changer. The Garmin Venu 2 Plus isn't just a smartwatch; it's a fitness powerhouse that goes beyond expectations. Moreover, the sleek design adds a touch of elegance to my wrist, making it not just a tech gadget but a style statement. I appreciate the attention to detail in the craftsmanship, which is evident in every aspect of the watch. Battery life is often a concern with smartwatches, but the Venu 2 Plus impresses with its longevity. I can confidently rely on it throughout the day, whether I'm tracking my workouts, receiving notifications, or simply enjoying the myriad of watch faces available. In conclusion, if you're in the market for a smartwatch that seamlessly blends style with functionality, elevates your fitness tracking, and enhances your overall well-being, the Garmin Venu 2 Plus is an outstanding choice. It's more than just a device; it's a delightful daily companion that I can't imagine my routine without.

    I love this watch and garmin definitely takes care of its customers. I had an issue with my watch, and they happily reached out to assist, sent a replacement and bands as well. Best Buy is also awesome as they confirmed that the warranty i purchased would transfer to the replacement watch. The watch it self is awesome, the only thing id siffest is that they add a temperature reader to it! I love my venu 2 plus!

    Garmin makes an amazing watch for fitness tracking. Although there are not as many features as an Apple or Samsung watch, this watch really excels in the features it does have. The HR seems to be the most accurate of any tracker I've had and the GPS is great for tracking running and/or biking.

    Great watch! For someone like me, older, not an athlete, but wanting to get healthier this watch is perfect! Love the GPS feature to track my walks with my dog. ECG option is great and very useful too! Watch notifications for apps are helpful and the screen is easier to see than my last Garmin. All in all this really fits the bill! I did add a TPU cover to protect against bumps and bangs.

    Love the watch and most of its features. Battery life is great as it lasts a week or more depending upon how much I use the GPS. I wish the connect app would convert MoveIQ events to actual activities, since sometimes I forget to start my elliptical activities.

    We have had Garmin watches before, but the battery life and beautiful screen is well worth the investment. Right now with a hour workout five days a week using GPS mode we get over a week of use before charging..
