Garmin Epix 2 vs Suunto Race 2

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

Open to being converted…

I adore my Suunto's, they are the only smartwatches that I genuinely like, all the others I've tried have led to me going back to analog. And they can take pretty good beating, I'm not nor have I ever been active duty military or sworn law enforcement, but I'm an outdoor pro, a working dog handler,

My path to Suunto - my way to perfect sport watch

My sportwatch evolution has been quite a ride: Apple Watch > Fenix 7 > Tactix 7 > Vertix 2 > Fenix 7X Pro > Fenix 8 > Vertix 2S > Race 2 > Vertical 2. In my experience, Garmin has become increasingly overpriced. Their lineup is cluttered with lifestyle features I rarely touch, and even the OS on the

Like the look of the Vertical 2 but is the software really that bad ?

I came from Apple Watch, briefly to Garmin, then got a Vertical (1 - steel solar) a year ago. I too thought it was a great looking watch which is why I bought it. I cant speak for everyone here bc the Suunto reddit group seems to be a place where people bitch about Suunto, so ALL YOUARE READING HERE

What feature/gadget to expect in 2026

What I'd like to happen - A new marketing department that understands how to sell based on the products strengths, and realises that they also have a line of other products that they need to get out to reviewers such as headphones and hrm bands. A new support system that isn't confusing and let's yo

Garmin Fenix 8 vs Suunto Vertical 2

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

Deciding to bite the bullet on vertical 2

Keep in mind that REI 20% discount doesn't typically work on GPS watches and other electronics. That aside, Vertical 2 is a great watch if you want to run UTMB, but by the time you are ready to run it and have accumulated 20+ stones to have a good chance in the lottery there will likely be newer and

Vertical 2 for 400 euros or Venu 4 for 500 euros ?

I went from Epix 2 Pro to Vertical 2. So far not regretting it. I sometimes miss the body battery, Suunto resources is pure garbage. Also things are more automated in Garmin land. Heart rate zone detection, analysis of your health stats, etc. If always look at the resting heart rate and HRV, so I ca

Was with Garmin for a decade. Made the switch and got a killer deal and watch! (Hopefully)

That discount is due to the fact that there is a newer version of the Vertical with an amoled display. Your original Vertical has mips, but don't hold it against the watch. Mips makes the battery life absolutely amazing. I've got this same watch, had it since the launch and I love it. The good thing
