Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I came from the Venu 2 so the improvement in features is very evident.
  • Have the older Venu 2 and also love it. Mine doesn’t get calls, but it gets text messages from my phone, if that helps.
  • I love the 255/265/Venu 2 size...
  • Now I have it on my Venu 2.
  • I'm also rocking a venu 2 and considering getting the 570. It's a big jump in price tho. Venu 2 still does everything just fine.

Cons

  • I have a Venu 2 and really miss real buttons...
  • For running and indoor cycling, the Venu 2 now feels bland and basic. Even though the Venu 2, FR 745, and Instinct 2 share the same generation of sensor, the jump in features makes it feel like I’ve skipped 2–3 iterations in one go.
  • The Enduro 3 is so much better than the Venu 2 it isn’t even worth mentioning in the same sentence.
  • I currently have had a venu 2 on my wrist full time since 2020.
  • I currently have a Venu 2.
