CHARGE LESS
With up to 11 days of battery life in smartwatch mode and up to 26 hours in GPS mode, you won’t have to take off your watch every night to charge it — meaning you can keep up with your well-being 24/7.
HEY, NICE WATCH
The Venu Sq 2 smartwatch has a sleek design that’s suited for every outfit and every part of your day . Its bright AMOLED display and optional always-on mode mean you can see everything with a quick glance.
MADE TO MOVE WITH YOU
From a durable Corning Gorilla Glass 3 lens to the lightweight aluminum bezel and comfortable silicone band, this smartwatch was made to keep up with your lifestyle.
WRIST-BASED HEART RATE
The watch samples your heart rate1 multiple times per second and will alert you if it stays too high or too low while you’re at rest. It also helps gauge how hard you work during activities, even while swimming.
BODY BATTERY ENERGY MONITORING
See your body’s energy levels throughout the day so you’ll know when your body is charged up and ready for activity or drained and needing to recharge with restful sleep.
SLEEP MONITORING AND SLEEP SCORE
Understand how your body is recovering with our improved sleep monitoring feature. After waking up, you’ll receive a sleep score as well as breakdown of your sleep stages, Pulse Ox2 and respiration alongside detailed insights for improved sleep quality1.
STRESS TRACKING
Find out if you’re having a calm, balanced or stressful day with continuous tracking. Relax reminders will even prompt you to do a short breathing activity when the watch detects stress.
HEALTH SNAPSHOT FEATURE

PULSE OX SENSOR
The Pulse Ox sensor2 gauges your blood oxygen saturation during the day and as you sleep to show how well your body is absorbing oxygen.
FITNESS AGE
This feature uses chronological age, your weekly vigorous activity, resting heart rate and BMI or body fat percentage3 to estimate if your body is younger or older than you are. And you can get tips to lower your fitness age.
MINDFUL BREATHING
When you want to relax or focus, you can start a breathwork activity, and this watch will track your stress and respiration to help you get a better understanding of how you’re breathing.
HYDRATION TRACKING
Log your daily fluid intake as a reminder to stay hydrated. You can even have an auto goal for hydration that adjusts based on how much sweat you lose during activities.
