Froze mid run
I use race 2 since 4 months. I had 3 restarts during 2 long runs in training and worse, one during my race. During the training it's unfortunate but I can live with it. During my race, I'm only missing 500 meters of 23km because I had the chance to check my watch relatively soon after the bug. I was

Finally trying out Coros Nomad!
I'm looking to upgrade from my Garmin Fenix 6S so I'm trying out all the major watches that I could get for under $500. From left to right: Epix Pro 51mm, Suunto Race 2, Coros Nomad. I've used the Epix Pro for around 3 weeks and have to return it soon if I don't decide to keep it. It's an excellent

Suunto Race 2 issues
Yep. I’ve written quite a few posts about my own experience with all of the data discrepancies. It’s very disappointing for this launch. I returned mine as have many other people. I wanted to love the Race 2 but it was a let down so I returned it. Terrific build quality but the software and data int

Glitch or what? 😂
I sent my Race 2 back because stuff like this. Suunto need to start a beta program to help with fixing this stuff before they release it to the general public.

Vertical 2 techs specs
It's simply what the market wants. People are accustomed to AMOLED displays - they're coming from Apple/Google watches and they appreciate the visual quality, even if it means sacrificing battery life during sports activities. Most users aren't familiar with MIP technology, and when they encounter s

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

Runners should already check Coros instead of Amazfit
I have tested all brands extensively, and during many years. In my modest opinion for that price a Suunto Race 2 is more reliable and with a much better build construction. Amazfit has lost the point. Too many devices, lots of features but infinite bugs and a very poor software base yet.

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

🔺New Update Notes🔺
Habe die Race 2 getestet und sie leider für die 970 zurückgegeben. War ein Fehler. Habe mir jetzt doch die Vertical 2 geholt und werde die 970 verkaufen. Ja, bei Suunto sind es 70% weniger Daten und Funktionen. Doch irgendwie hat man von den Daten auch nichts. Die 970 ist gefühlt die von der Optik u

Race 2 keeps rebooting mid-run
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
