Garmin displays tend to be readable but dim and non-touch. Is a bright touchscreen worth a huge extra cost?
Garmin has always catered to serious athletes willing to pay a premium for a proper fitness smartwatch, with plenty of buttons, robust tracking software, and tons of battery life. Each one has its own niche: the Forerunner 945 LTE caters to runners with its full-color maps and LTE, while the rugged Garmin Fenix 6 has 10 ATM and upgraded GPS for hikers.
Then you have last year`s Garmin Venu 2, which defied categorization a bit. Its gorgeous AMOLED display and stainless steel bezel, 11-day battery life, and music storage made it a true pleasure to use. But in the end, it was a $400 plastic watch, competing with lifestyle watches in price without essentials like cellular calling or voice assistant access. Enter the Garmin Venu 2 Plus, which gives you those cellular perks, plus some new features like animated on-screen HIIT workouts.
A proper Garmin lifestyle watch, the Venu...
