Race S

Mapping and navigation is most important and the Race 2 does a reasonable job of that. It actually doesn't do a reasonable job beyond the simplest use cases. As a trail runner I am a power user in terms of using maps and navigation, and I could probably write a whole page of text of what's wrong wit

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

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

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.

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

Love my Race S, however I've found their reliability to be poor. My original one lasted 10 months before it stopped acquiring GPS signal entirely. Suunto replaced the watch with a new one, and three months later it's failed with the same problem again. And as for the customer service from Suunto whe

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I like Race S tbh, what I like most about Suunto is the lag free GPS/navigation (the only reason for holding onto Suunto) which is really useful while hiking and to get real time pace while running. Also, I love their calendar. But from software side Suunto is so mu

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 user here . Really disappointed with the watch. The inconsistency’s with hr and elevation gain just really poor . Suunto don’t seem to care
