Garmin Venu 2S

The Garmin Venu 2S and the standard Venu 2 are very similar smartwatches released in the same year, both running on the Garmin OS and featuring a modern AMOLED display. The primary distinction is physical size and battery capacity; the Venu 2S is the more compact model, featuring a smaller 1.1-inch screen suitable for smaller wrists, whereas the Venu 2 boasts a larger 1.3-inch display. Correspondingly, the larger Venu 2 offers significantly longer battery life when running at up to 8 days compared to the Venu 2S's 6 days in that usage mode. Furthermore, the standard Venu 2 includes NFC for contactless payments, a feature that the Venu 2S lacks. Choosing between them largely depends on whether you prioritize a smaller fit and lighter weight (Venu 2S) or a larger screen and built-in NFC (Venu 2).
