Vertical

Suunto watches never were a lost cause in my opinion. Well, they had a known problem with one of their gps modules, but my Suunto Vertical Solar is running and running and running like a charm.

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

You drop about 5% battery per day on the Vertical 2 and Race 2 when used in typical smartwatch mode. Give or take a few percentage points based on what settings you have, how often you use the watch, and battery differences between the two models. That battery drain works out pretty close to Suunto'

I switched from the Apple Watch Ultra to a proper sports watch as well, so maybe my experience helps. I had the Apple Watch Ultra a few times and kept selling it again. For me, it was just too much “smartwatch” and not enough sport. Too many notifications, too many menus, too much stuff I simply don

Suunto Vertical Solar. Best looking gps watch imo

I have the Vertical 2 and the Coros Nomad. Both of them are great watches for sports tracking. If you are not going to wear it everyday, just for sports activities I would go for the Coros because it's cheaper and offers the same or maybe slightly more metrics and customisation. Suunto build quality

I owned the Fenix 8, and I just switched to the Vertical 2. Here’s my thoughts. Getting the watch you want depended on what my primary use case was. The Fenix 8 is more powerful, more feature rich, and provides more data, but I found a lot of drawbacks for me personally. I primarily use the watches

I love it and think it's a steal at the current prices, but also realize I might be in the minority. I wore a Vertical 1 for a long time, but picked up a titanium 9PP last year when they went on sale and it's now my preferred everyday watch. It does everything the SV1 does minus maps and is so much

Dont even try with "smartwatches" for sport activties, they are very bad at it, not to mention the battery. Had samsung watch 7, pure garbage GPS acuracy, HR sometimes good sometimes bad. But the battery , damn was that awfull, 2 days maximum. If you want an accurate HR you need to use a belt anyway

For general use, battery life, even at it's worst, is still measured in weeks on the Race and Vertical series. With the Race S having the worst battery life since it is the smallest model and the Vertical Solar having the best because the verticals have larger batteries in addition to the solar. The
