Garmin has just announced its latest wearable products during the ongoing CES 2022 event. The company has launched new smartwatches, including the Venu 2 Plus and the Vivomove Sport.
Venu 2 Plus
During the event, the American brand unveiled the latest addition to the Venu 2 series, which have finally received two crucial features. This includes the ability to take phone calls and support for voice assistant controls. The Venu 2 Plus sports a 1.3 inch AMOLED display that has a 416 x 416 pixels resolution, Always On mode, and Corning’s Gorilla Glass 3 for protection. It is available in a single 43mm case size and arrives with a 20mm replaceable silicone strap.
The new smartwatch also arrives with the usual fitness related features, allowing it to track indoor and outdoor physical activities. It even arrives with an automatic incident detection feature that alerts emergency contacts with the user’s location. Garmin states that the Venu 2 Plus can last for up to 9 days on a single full charge and up to 8 days with GPS and music mode enabled. The smartwatch supports fast charging, which adds a day worth of use in just 10 minutes of charging.
Vivomove Sport
The Vivomove Sport from the company is a hybrid watch, which joins the existing Vivomove series. It adopts a small analog design with a hidden touchscreen display in the bottom half of the case. When the user interacts with the display, the physical hands move away to offer a clear view. Furthermore, this screen displays crucial information like incoming calls, text messages, along with important health related trackers like heart rate, blood oxygen, sleep tracking, and step mapping.
The new smartwatch also arrives with sports tracking as well and can pair with a smartphone for its GPS to track the distance traveled. This hybrid watch can last for up to 5 days when it is in smartwatch mode and up to 6 days in its Watch mode.
