I just purchased a Garmin 2 today. Brought it home and charged it 100%. All seemed sort of ok. I did notice, regardless of wrist movement, you can only see the time if you double tap the screen, or push the bottom button. Anyway, before I went for a walk, I set the walk up on the Venu 2 and set off. 30 minutes into the walk, I noticed when looking at the watch, there was no display. Pushing the buttons...nothing. When I got home 30 minutes later, I noticed that using any button, did nothing. Dead screen. Even plugging the charger in provided no display.
My wife has had the Venu. for 12 months. It has never missed a beat. Great watch she says, you should buy one, better still, get the newer model Venu 2.....
Spoke to the selling dealer and said bring it back and we will replace it.
Not sure if I want another. My first venture into smart watches.
