Vertical

I recently got a Solar versio of the vertical 1 and for me the reasons were (in no order). MIP display (yeah... I know the newer Suunto moved to amoled...) Solar charging for insane battery life (only possible with mip displays) Used to the Suunto ecosystem coming from a Suunto 9 baro Suunto is not

I've had Suunto Race 2, Suunto Vertical 2, and Coros Apex 4 - unfortunately have not tried Coros' Amoled screens yet. Pace 4 will be MUCH lighter. The Coros app is the most polished of any I've tried (Garmin, Amazfit, Suunto, Coros). You will get better health metrics (more reliable sleep tracking,

Suunto watches never were a lost cause in my opinion. Well, they had a known problem with one of their gps modules, but my Suunto Vertical Solar is running and running and running like a charm.

I'll just tackle a couple of these. I don't think anyone knows what's in store for new watches or software. I used to have a Vertical 1, and now own a Vertical 2. There is nothing I miss on the V1. I have my watch set to raise to wake, and I do a lot of trail running. I have no issues at all with th

You drop about 5% battery per day on the Vertical 2 and Race 2 when used in typical smartwatch mode. Give or take a few percentage points based on what settings you have, how often you use the watch, and battery differences between the two models.

Vertical 2 screen is big and easy to read. The buid quality is superb. There are much less watch faces on Suunto and

I’ve owned several Fenix models, from version 3 through 8. Overall, I’ve been satisfied with Garmin, but I’ve also been quite disappointed by the map latency and the lack of responsiveness when updating map orientation. Navigation is important to me, which is why I switched to the Vertical 2 about a

Lifelong runner and Garmin user since the original Forerunner 201, with numerous devices from a few brands along the way and now with a Balance 2. I have little reason to consider another brand at this point. Amazfit has fixed or added most of the important things for me as a runner. Sure Garmin has

Race 2 and Vertical 2 are basically the same watch. Your choice should depend on whether you want the watch to have a bit more battery life (Vertical 2) or be more thin and lightweight (Race 2). Also, whether you want a scrolling crown (Race 2) or flashlight (Vertical 2). First gen Vertical 1 is the

I think Suunto made a real misstep with the Vertical 2 in giving it the same screen as the Race 2. The original Race and Vertical had distinct and separate identities and niches. But the Vertical 2 and Race 2 lack that clear separation in my opinion. Turning the Vertical 2 into a large Race S with w
