Suunto Race S ... Real feedback from long-term users? 👋
I had the Suunto race s last year when it came out. I chose it over the larger race because it had a supposedly updated HR sensor and zone training was important to me. The software on the watch is great because it’s simple - but on your point about it being a fitness watch, I felt the HR sensor was

Is the Suunto Race S worth it?
The Suunto watches are far superior in terms of hardware. They really do look and feel better in every way to gain and coros. However there are certain things that they don’t do (see my recent post about not being able to get my Run to announce mile splits no matter what I try - when I’m told it IS

Suunto Race S vs Coros Pace Pro
Influencers are terrible at showing the ecosystem, so it's a great question. I typed this up to someone's similar question in r/Coros, so I'll re-post here. Suunto pros: Suunto industrial design, UI design, screen quality, and build quality is ridiculously good. Native support for pace, power, and H

Coros v suunto
Suunto pros: - Suunto industrial design, UI design, screen quality, and build quality is ridiculously good.- Native support for pace, power, and HR zones. (Coros is cagey about power.) But I'd hedge this by saying Coros HR/Pace zones and fitness estimates are better. Suunto is a bit of a chore to ma

Should I sell my 9 peak pro?
MIP technology is far superior to the "shiny new amoled" in many ways (very high luminosity scenarios like glacier climbing, and gigantic battery life always on) but i understand the dull colors are not for everyone and the images on their website are a bit misleading, but its NOT a problem of being

Best watch for Ironman training?
I currently own a Garmin 255 and a Suunto Race S. Before that, I had a Garmin 735, which I used for my two Ironman triathlons. This might be an unpopular opinion, but I don't think a high-end watch is necessary to prepare for and compete in an Ironman. First of all, many people want to record the en

Leaving Garmin after 10 years (FR955 firmware fail). Suunto Race S or Coros Pace Pro?
As much as I love my Race S, Suunto has some weird bugs. They happen once in a while, so you never can be too sure about the reliability of the Watch. My Race S rebooted while recording a run twice over the course of a year. One of the reboots has been during a race...

Suunto repair service experience
I'm curious to know if anyone has had a completed experience. I'm about to ship out my 5 month old Suunto Race S to Finland. It's unfortunate they would not repair it under warranty, my friend has a Garmin that she cracked the screen on while working, they replaced it, twice. I'm concerned about how

So all of these are great, but which one to choose?(Suunto Race S, Polar avant m3or coros Pace pro)
I had the Race S but returned it after a few days. I suffered many issues in this short time: heart rate stopping during activities, map screen freezing in place, lag on the pool. I purchased an Apex 2 which proved to be super reliable, with this watch I have done several triathlon short and middle

Race S vs Apple Watch/Ultra
I went down this journey and got the Suunto Race S. I still think it’s the most beautiful watch on the market but I found it awful. There were practical issues like it often crashed synching to WiFI and repeatedly didn’t sync with my iPhone. There were usability issues like whilst it’s synching you
