r/Suunto

at a weird time where I can now get all these watches sub-£300 and within £40 of each other.

my request list is quite easy, offline maps, long battery life (I often work away for a week at a time so would prefer to not charge it then. When I’m away I will normally do upwards of 10-15 hours GPS).

I’m a runner, walker and cyclist but wont prioritise cycling as have a dedicated computer. Mainly I will be following GPX routes in new locations so like offline maps for if I’ve overstated my fitness for the day.

It's 3rd of july, any info?

Hey guys,

Is there any information about future product announcements? I'm still waiting for the Race 2S.

Do you know if Suunto has set dates for announcing new products every year, like Apple and Samsung?

Received the titanium vertical 2 a few days ago. Fantastic looking device.

Today was in the garage moving things around and scraped the watch against a metal bracket. Had a look and there was what looked like scrapes on the side of the watch. f*ck sake I thought. I wiped it off and behold it is wiped off the metal residue from the watch with no ill effects whatsoever. Now I need to be a little more careful.

I am deciding between Suunto Run, Coros Pace 3 and Garmin FR165. This is my budget. It will be my first smart watch and need to track running/ jogging, walking, floor activities (pilates, yoga, stretching), occasionally hiking, trekking and if possible water intake tracking.

I am looking for data accuracy, durability and an "addictive" UI that makes me feel motivated to check lists, maintain the streak, visualize my goals daily. (just these features mentioned are fine, I don't need badges or community challenges).

Another feature I am looking for is a smooth synch with strava and full weekly/ monthly plan customization.

Which one would you choose? and why?

I tried making an interval run session based on the Norweigein 4×4. It worked great during the run but I can't figure out how to access the data in the app to see information like what was my pace and heart rate during the 4 intervals and 4 rests.

Would greatly appreciate if someone could help me out with this.

Been running into an issue with my watch. I sleep at least 6 hours a night, weekly average is 7.5. Yesterday I woke up to a 31% body energy after a 8 hours of sleep. Weird, but I had hit the gym on Tuesday. Went on a 5k Run yesterday, went to bed with 31% body energy.

Woke up to the exact same 31% body energy as when I went to bed, no overnight recovery at all, yet Resources showed 81%. Shouldn't body energy have climbed after a night's sleep? Is this a known sync/calculation bug?

Hello,
I am a cyclist and I also run, so I am looking for a good pair of headphones. For now I was using JBL Flow Pro and I am very happy with them, but they broke, because I use them a lot inside on my trainer, so I sweat a lot and most of the headphones don't last because of that.
What would you recommend in terms of sound quality, the general use and buttons usability, and sweat resistance?

Thank you!

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a replacement band for my Suunto Race 2. The stock one is causing some skin redness and irritation.

​Does anyone know of a good elastic/stretch nylon band that is breathable and hypoallergenic? Any specific brand recommendations that fit the Race 2 well would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi. Been using Polar for over 10 years and really like the sleep tracking & recovery insights. Looking to buy the Suunto Race S but I've read that Suunto sleep data isn't great but that the Suunto app has got a lot better recently and may continue to improve.

Has anyone here already made the Polar->Suunto move and if so how good/bad have you found the sleep data and app in comparison?

I finally moved today to a Suunto Race watch from the old Baro 9 which I had used for 7,5 years. What are you duration experience with Suunto watches? I think I might have used the old watch for still some time, but not too long, due to fast battery depletion, HR sensor deterioriation, and lower GPS quality. Not criticising, it's an excellent watch and I will keep it just in case. I wonder for how long other users have been with one Suunto watch. I mean active use, like daily wristwatch plus at least 4-5 sports activities weekly.
