Thanks Abby, your videos are excellent! Even though I'm a guy with a large wrist, I prefer smaller, lightweight watches, especially when it comes to workouts/exercise. Although the weight/size difference of these watches is not huge, every gram matters I suppose. Plus saving $100 for the Venu 2s vs the Venu 2 Plus is also nice!

As a senior citizen the added speaker can be a lifesaver. I leave my iphone all over the house and I frequently miss calls. So hopefully this will prevent my missed calls and more. My hubby just ordered me a Venu2s plus for Mother’s Day. I hope I love it

I returned the venu 2 plus and I regret it . The Venu 2S only has vibration for alarms and timers which I use daily. That's a bummer and the screen is way too small for that price. It's smaller the the 6s and vivoactive 3. So I'm returning it and getting my bad boy back 🤣

It's good you got to try the Venu series and find out it's not the right fit for you, and try not to regret it too much you definitely returned the Venu 2 Plus for a reason. The Fenix 6S is a much more function packed and versatile watch in my opinion and, I personally prefer it's easy to read always on display to the AMOLED displays that have to be constantly awakened..

Again lovely presentation 👏👏❤️. Few questions 1 When you are ready - can you pls do a comprehensive review with V2 + Using for Strength Training or weight training, Eg Apple has 100s apps to download for weight training and what's it like for Garmin etc, how quality is the built in weight training app 2 With AW, you can lift your hand and say Hey Siri, then Siri Siri comes alive 😀 With V2+ do we to press a button first and say Siri? Can you clarify that / or can we set up V2+ to when lift hand and say Siri to comes alive rather than pressing a button Thank you 🙏

Hello I am not planning on doing another Venu 2 Plus review currently but, I can tell you Garmin has an effective built-in strength exercise app that can be used to track strength/weight lifting activities (no need to download external apps), it can track the amount of reps, sets, time, heart rate and more during the exercise, and is accurate in my opinion. For the Venu 2 Plus you hold the middle button then talk once the mic icon pops up, no need to say Siri first. And I tried to wake it up with just my voice saying Hey Google and that does not work.

And yes you do have the press the button to activate the voice assistant, it doesn't activate by saying Hey Google at this time.

Hi, I personally find the Venu 2 Plus too large on my wrist (and would have liked a smaller version for women like the Venu 2S is smaller than the Venu 2), of course this is my opinion and others may agree or disagree. Also men and women may feel differently depending on thier respective wrist sizes and preferences. Whether a watch is too big or small is personally subjective to the one wearing it. If the Fenix 7S feels bigger to you that is your opinion which is completely fine.
