Vertical

Are you sure about Garmin discontinuing the support for Epix 2? In my understanding they do not offer the new features for ”F7 line-up” buy do bring any essential security updates and bug fixes. Anyhow, I do understand your frustration towards Garmin as I’ve spied the conversations and updates about

I used Garmin for 8 yrs, most of them re Instinct. My last device was Crossover Amoled. The physical hand broke so I sold it. I just bought Suunto Vertical 2 and here are my thougts. Vertical 2 screen is big and easy to read. The buid quality is superb. There are much less watch faces on Suunto and

I think Suunto made a real misstep with the Vertical 2 in giving it the same screen as the Race 2. The original Race and Vertical had distinct and separate identities and niches. But the Vertical 2 and Race 2 lack that clear separation in my opinion. Turning the Vertical 2 into a large Race S with w

The depth in Suunto Vertical is measured by the baro sensor, which in Vertical is not calibrated enough for underwater measurement below 10 meters. Real scuba watches have better sensors.

In my experience, Garmin has become increasingly overpriced. Their lineup is cluttered with lifestyle features I rarely touch, and even the OS on the

I tried out a fenix 8 earlier this year. Had it for about a week and used in parallel with my Apex 2. It was my dream upgrade at the time. This is my personal takeaway: I didn’t like the feedback on the Fenix buttons. The clickiness of the coros watch was sooo much more satisfying. As well as using

I’m using a race 2 (very similar to the vertical 2) side by side atm. The grit x2 pro is built MILES better than the suunto. I bought the suunto titanium and it’s literally just a little titanium ring on top of a plastic watch. The upgrade felt like a waste. The polar has a great finish that takes b

If you want a smart watch buy a garmin, if you want a sport watch consider suunto ;) Garmin watches are more customizable, provide more data, but I don’t think they are better. I would say that for someone interested in sport, how the body works, how training must be done suunto is really good. Tsb

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
