Race

Lifelong runner and Garmin user since the original Forerunner 201, with numerous devices from a few brands along the way and now with a Balance 2. I have little reason to consider another brand at this point. Amazfit has fixed or added most of the important things for me as a runner. Sure Garmin has

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

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 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

Hard to say. I think the only ones who know for certain are Suunto's software development team. For what it's worth, as someone who has had a Race since launch, the watch went through a bunch of significant software overhauls. In its current state it's very different than it was when first released.

I don't think they listen to customers any better than any other company to be honest. Longtime users have been asking for basic features for years. And the various 'quirks' of using Suunto like their apps and being previously limited to 2 total for a workout was comedic. You might still be in the h

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

I have Suunto Race S and these apps are mostly just toys really. I've not seen 1 really useful one. I mean there is for example "table tennis score logger" which is good if you play table tennis with a friend and just log each score and it provides you the proper scoring list and whos move is it now

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

Late to the party but … you nailed my main issue with Suunto. Compared to Coros you can’t fully customize your data screen. Let’s say you only want 1 data field (big) you can’t do that with the Suunto, on the Coros you can. I really really want to love Suunto (as it’s an EU-brand) but I always have
