Race S

VO2 max is an aerobic fitness metric. the watch gets datapoints any time you do some sustained hard efforts. if you're not a "big runner" then it probably doesn't mean anything to you. i don't agree it's a "scam" like the other commenter. it might not necessarily correlate with a lab-tested result,

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

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

When a watch ONLY uses HR Sensor for all calculations (activity, tss, rest, calories) and the sensor literally is shit. How is this acceptable for you? I needed to buy a polar h10 because suunto race s sucks in hr sensor. With Race 2 they should at least reach garmin levels, if not apple. But they d

I have Suunto Race S and other watches. Sometimes I turn it on to sync with the phone, for any updates for example. After sync the watch goes congratulating me with steps goal, like 17k steps, although I barely did 3k during a day. I hope they fixed this issue.

See my post here:https://www.reddit.com/r/Suunto/comments/1s6le3x/small_annoyances_are_so_bad/They seem to have prettier design and app overall is more consistent. But training plans are really just a joke, importing from other systems - works, but you don't get any feedback from watch, other then step

Thanks for this tip! I have a brand new Race 2 Titanium (less than a week old) and the exact same thing happened to me. It crashed during only my second run with the watch, right during the initial warm-up phase. ​I had a competitive half-marathon yesterday and was stressing out about the reliabilit

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

i don't necessarily agree with all your issues, but i left for similar reasons. it's not that suunto isn't garmin, it's that it's not a good fitness watch. i don't necessarily need garmin's metrics and detail (infact i agree with those who say that it's too bloated and a lot of that stuff is noise),

I’ve used and returned 2 Race 2’s and a Vertical 2. Suunto Watches look better but that’s where the good of Suunto ends. Everything else Garmin does is far superior to Suunto . This means training load, body battery (Garmin) is far superior to what Suunto does with their “Recovery and Resources” fie
