Buying my first Smart watch and using some of your videos to decide. Getting an older model so I won't have to spend as much $. I decided to go with the Venu 2S. It arrives soon. Can't wait!
Thank you for this. The detailed battery test was EXACTLY what I was looking for. I'm confident the SQ2 will run circles around my current Forerunner 45 and my wife/daughter's Apple Watch in regards to the battery life. I used your link and the black is $30 off...looks like we both win. Cheers
Thank you for the excllent review. I like the price of the SQ but am very concerned about the lack of availability of a screen protecor compared to the Venu 2S
Heyy, thank you for this video, I have a question, what is your wrist size? So it would be easier to compare, mine is 18cm and I'm unsure which will fit me good, by measurements the Venu 2s would be to small, right?
Awesome review. I am thinking of buying it for my gf bday, but in doubt withing SQ 2, Venu 2S or Vivoactive 4/4s..She has Fitbit Versa 3 atm. any suggestions ? 😊
Thank you! And I'd recommend picking a display type you want (AMOLED on Venu, Sunlight Transflective MIP on Vivoactive) then choose if you want square or circle watch, as that will really narrow down your choice to one of the 3 watches. All are good options :)
Hi! I’m a healthcare worker and am looking into the Venu2. Is there a way to get a second hand display on the watch face? I need that in order to take vitals manually :]
Thanks for the review, here's a dumb question, i want the watch for running but specifically i want to messure the time for each lap i run, and also for the total distance, can any of these watches do that? Thanks, like and subscribed btw :D.
Hey if that's all you want to do you can do that with the Venu SQ 2 music here as well as on the Venu 2s, Vivoactive 4s, Venu 3s, Fenix 7s and many more.
Hi both can answer and deny calls but, you cannot take calls through either watch as there is no built in speaker/mic or Bluetooth calling ability on either watch. If you are looking for a Garmin watch with Bluetooth calling I'd recommend the Garmin Venu 3S. And I've done a full review on it as well if you are interested!
Hi, there's actually 2 apps you should download 1st is called Garmin Connect (you use this app to sync your watch and view all your activites data etc.) 2nd app is called Garmin Connect IQ Store you can use this app to get extra watch faces, and apps like Spotify for example.
Hello, yes their are many differences some being battery life, size, design, music storage capacity etc. The Venu 2 plus also has a mic, speaker, altimeter which the SQ 2 Music does not. Also, I do have a full review on both the Venu 2 Plus and Venu SQ 2 if your looking for more indepth information on either of these smartwatches.
@@AbbyBReviewing thanks I’m thinking if I should get an Apple Watch series 8 or Garmin venu 2 plus since I own an iPhone …which one will track my gym workout more correctly? I like the look of the Apple Watch tho ..
@@ychu9432 the Venu 2 Plus is compatible with iPhones and andriod. And both watches can track gym activities well. I'd definitely go for the one I preferred the look of, and would consider the price and features on the watches as well.
Thank you for responding and your informative videos. Good thing I ordered the Venu 2 Plus. A little larger than my Fitbit but calls are clear on the wrist. Liking it so far.
@@AbbyBReviewingCan you answer a call from the watch to your Bluetooth wireless headphones are on if you are on a run? Or does the phone have to be with you too
I wish there were more square face smartwatches out there.

Good choice! Hope you enjoy it 😊
Yaaay! Been waiting for this! Nice review! (: Will probably get the Venu SQ 2 👍
Glad to hear it! And nice :)
Thank you for pronouncing Venu correctly. So many reviewers pronounce it with a long e sound like veenu.
Thank you for this. The detailed battery test was EXACTLY what I was looking for. I'm confident the SQ2 will run circles around my current Forerunner 45 and my wife/daughter's Apple Watch in regards to the battery life. I used your link and the black is $30 off...looks like we both win. Cheers
Nice! And I hope you enjoy your new Venu SQ2, thanks for sharing 😊
Great video comparison. Because of your informative video, I think I’m going to go with the Venu 2S! Thank you!
Thanks, and nice! I hope you enjoy the Venu 2 Heather 😊
Your video got so many details! Thank you !.
Glad it was helpful Severus Lin :)
Thank you for the excllent review. I like the price of the SQ but am very concerned about the lack of availability of a screen protecor compared to the Venu 2S
Thank you for the fantastic review
Great review. Thanks
Heyy, thank you for this video, I have a question, what is your wrist size? So it would be easier to compare, mine is 18cm and I'm unsure which will fit me good, by measurements the Venu 2s would be to small, right?
Hello, my wrist is 7 inches or 17.8cm. I find the size great on myself. Can't say if you'd find it too small or not.
@@AbbyBReviewing Thank you for your answer 🥰
Thanks for the video 😊
Hi. Thanks for the review. Can the sq 2 track reps and sets when doing a gym workout? I know Venu 2 can do both as well as a animation.
Hello, I don't see an option to do that, so i dont think so.
Awesome review. I am thinking of buying it for my gf bday, but in doubt withing SQ 2, Venu 2S or Vivoactive 4/4s..She has Fitbit Versa 3 atm. any suggestions ? 😊

@@AbbyBReviewing thank you for the answer. I think that Amoled is better. And square maybe. All of those three have same sensors and features ?
Great review. Helps with my decision.
Thanks, and glad this video helped with your decision!
Hi! I’m a healthcare worker and am looking into the Venu2.
Is there a way to get a second hand display on the watch face? I need that in order to take vitals manually :]
Hi, yes, and you asked this yesterday, and I answered. I gave you a more in-depth answer in your other comment. Please refer to that for more info.
Excellent comparison. In the photos it looks like the SQ2 is thicker than the 2s. Is that correct? Thank you.
Thank you Art! And I do not see a noticeable difference in thickness. The SQ2 watch/display size is larger though.
Thanks for the review, here's a dumb question, i want the watch for running but specifically i want to messure the time for each lap i run, and also for the total distance, can any of these watches do that? Thanks, like and subscribed btw :D.
Hello, yes they can both do that, and awesome 😊
Thanks for showing the color and side by side.
You bet!
Hi
Does it work with a iPhone? Thanks
Ho, yes they are compatible with iOS iPhones. But you can't reply to text messages on the watch with an iPhone, as Apple doesn't allow it.
@@AbbyBReviewing thank you 🙏
Which one is better for swimming
Hi, both have the same water resistance and can track swimming
well.
i'm looking for a watch just to listen music at the gym. Can you tell me some garmin better than venu Sq 2 music for this propurse?
Hey if that's all you want to do you can do that with the Venu SQ 2 music here as well as on the Venu 2s, Vivoactive 4s, Venu 3s, Fenix 7s and many more.
Can the SQ2 don’t measure the elevation gain on a run?
Hi, the Venu SQ2 cannot but, the Venu 2S can.
Hi! Can we take calls thru venu sq2 without answering the phone?
Hi both can answer and deny calls but, you cannot take calls through either watch as there is no built in speaker/mic or Bluetooth calling ability on either watch. If you are looking for a Garmin watch with Bluetooth calling I'd recommend the Garmin Venu 3S. And I've done a full review on it as well if you are interested!
New for the garmen watch would i just type in garmen to find the app?
Hi, there's actually 2 apps you should download 1st is called Garmin Connect (you use this app to sync your watch and view all your activites data etc.) 2nd app is called Garmin Connect IQ Store you can use this app to get extra watch faces, and apps like Spotify for example.
Hi. Can you store images on garmin watch as your wallpaper?
Hi, yes you can by using the Garmin Connect IQ App, and the faceit section in the app to make a custom watch face with the picture you want.
Can you set playlists to shuffle?
Hi! And yes you can.
Any difference between the venu sq1 music and venu 2 plus?
Hello, yes their are many differences some being battery life, size, design, music storage capacity etc. The Venu 2 plus also has a mic, speaker, altimeter which the SQ 2 Music does not.

Is venu sq 2 can become golf watch?
Hi, and yes the Venu SQ 2 does have some golfing features.
Can you take phone calls on the SQ?
Hi Belinda, you can only answer or deny calls on both watches. No built in speaker/mic to take calls on the watch.
Thank you for responding and your informative videos. Good thing I ordered the Venu 2 Plus. A little larger than my Fitbit but calls are clear on the wrist. Liking it so far.

@@FrankLucas1 hi, your phone has to be with you for calls.
