To recap
The Plus version of the Venu 2 takes the foundation of the original and expands it with voice assistance (via a connected phone). That increases the number of smartwatch functions available, but there are some downsides to using voice. That said, support for sports - which is Garmin’s foundation - remains exemplary here.
