Vertical

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

I’ve had the Grit X2 for two weeks now. Honestly, I’m delighted with it. I’ve tried Garmin (Instinct 2X Solar, 6X), Suunto (Vertical 2), and Coros (Nomad). Polar’s recovery metrics are on another level. It does everything, and it does it well. Having more metrics doesn’t necessarily make you better

Garmin probably has more features and I've used Garmin watches for ages for the fear of missing out but not being a pro athlete suunto covers more then enough of the basics for me. I prefer the look of the race 2 / vertical 2 over the recent Garmin watches and especially dislike what Garmin has done

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,

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

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

Looks like you have to purchase the watch to get the watch face: https://forum.suunto.com/topic/14599/each-suunto-vertical-2-limited-edition Not cool, in my opinion, but maybe they'll make it available to all sometime later.

The Vertical 2 is pretty sturdy. But there's a reason why it's a grand (USD) cheaper than the current iterations of the Tactix series. The Tactix Delta is stainless steel but it was DLC coated which adds a lot to the expense and build time. The current Tactix models are titanium and polymer, which m

Good question, normally i would tell you on Garmin vs Suunto. Take the Suunto Vertical 2 its cheaper and step by step the watch is getting closer to the Garmin features.... But in your case (longterm Garmin user) maybe it is better to stay in the Garmin environment. Because there is datas which are

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
