Garmin Venu Sq 2 – Doubles Battery Life

Garmin released a new version of its fitness smartwatch, Garmin Venue Square.

A larger screen with a higher resolution and better battery life are among the novelties that the Venu Sq 2 can boast of.

Battery life 11 days

Battery life in particular is perhaps the watch’s strongest feature. We are talking about almost double the previous one, from 6 to 11 days.

It’s impressive in itself, but also compared to current competitors like Fitbit Sense with 6 days and Apple Watch with 1-2 days.

While there’s a lot of focus on advanced training functions in Garmin watches like the Fenix ​​and Forerunner, there’s even more focus on health in the Venu Sq 2. So, it’s a more comparable competitor to the Fitbit Sense/Versa and the Apple Watch.

Like its predecessor, the Venu Sq 2 is packed with health and activity related functions such as measuring heart rate and sleep, tracking stress and breathing, reporting abnormal heart rate, oxygen saturation, and a number of training profiles.

You can of course also practice with it, choosing from more than 25 built-in practice profiles. You’ll also find a large selection of different cardio, strength training, yoga, high intensity, and Pilates workouts.

The Venu Sq 2 is equipped with GPS, but it lacks a barometer and gyroscope sensors.
