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

Any converts from Suunto here?
So, the OHR is definitely better across all Polar devices, at least prior to Race 2 and Vertical 2. Did a run with a series of strides yesterday: Race connected to H10 on one hand, V3 on the other using its OHR. V3 matched Race beat-for-beat, and that's pretty much has been my experience over the ye

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

How many Coros or other fitness watches are you guys actually using right now?
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

Suunto Q2 April Update Thoughts
Trails disappear from view very quickly when you start to zoom out. It makes it very difficult to view trail systems and orient yourself, because even slightly zooming out makes all the trails disappear. It's a very narrow field of view. As it currently works it's very difficult to use. Roads and wa

What’s the most accurate watch for pace and distance? I don’t care about heart rate and other health stuff.
I have tried three different watches in the last couple of months. Coros Pace 4 : GPS just didn’t work properly. Coros swapped the watch TWICE but each one had the same problem. GPS dropping out. Pace was overestimated significantly. I returned all the watches, sadly. The watch is great and the soft

[Question] Am I wrong for thinking fitness watches offer way more value for the money than traditional watches?
I have a Suunto Race S (I use Suunto since the beginning of the S9) , I use it maybe 6 or 7 times a week during my various exercices, but it so frustrating sometime compared to an automatic watch. You have to recharge it The 'move to wake up' isn't working 100% off the time. Always on make the batte

The 'move to wake up' isn't working 100% off the time. Always on make the battery life too short. The first one can be fixed with a firmware upgrade or better a accelerometer and gyroscope in a future model. The latter is an Amoled issue, MIP watches don't have that issue. It's too big (even the Rac

HR ist not good but you can wear an HR Strap. I used for a week and sold it again because of the UI and App. They a
