    @TrailEyes There’s a video out from DaveDoesFitness that also may be a bit confused on the 4GB / 64GB differences. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zjgS1ZaShC4&pp=ugUHEgVlbi1VUw%3D%3D From about 2:50 into the video, I’ll attempt a transcription: “Suunto Run 2 now comes with maps on the higher storage option. So, that’s right, we’re getting two versions here. The Suunto Run 2 retails at $349 and that gets you the 4 gig version. Or $399 gets you the 64 gig version, which is where all your offline maps and music will be living.” Does not quite say “no maps on 4GB” directly, and didn’t see a “Suunto told me” comment (no one’s really commented yet), but this makes the third reviewer who either jumped to conclusions or filmed working with wrong or outdated info. On the other hand, a video by Quantified Scientist gets things right, noting the two storage options and correctly states both can receive offline maps. So either several people made the same assumption/mistake, or was given poor info from their Suunto rep (who easily could also have been mistaken, rather than a last minute spec change). I’d say in either way, that’s a bit on Suunto for not ensuring the proper info was out there for everyone.

    @elbee I don’t fully agree that it’s only person related. I’ve used several watches with optical heart rate sensors, including the Pixel Watch 3 and 4, the Galaxy Watch Ultra, and the Garmin Fenix 7X Pro. All of them provide reliable heart rate readings on my wrist without any noticeable issues. With the Suunto Race S, and now with the Race, I still experience occasional cadence lock and workouts where heart rate is clearly underreported or not captured correctly. What’s confusing is that some activities are recorded perfectly, while others are not. Since other brands work well for me under the same conditions, I don’t think the issue can be explained purely by individual physiology. There seems to be something specific about Suunto’s optical HR implementation or algorithms that makes it more sensitive in certain situations. That’s what I struggle to understand. If optical heart rate measurement generally didn’t work for me, I would simply accept it and use an external sensor. But based on my experience with several other watches, optical HR clearly does work for me. That’s why I find these inconsistent results on the Race and Race S difficult to explain.

    I bring back this thread to life There is not much feedback with varia app. I’m considering buying a varia 820. On bike I use my Vertical has bike computer. My questions : has someone tested it with the app (which is supposed to work with varia 515 but no informations with 820) does you need to be on app screen to have the warnings or you can stay on a data screen or guidance screen and the warnings are displayed above ? Thanks if someone has been using the app and have feedback !

    Hello, I’m following the drain battery since many days and that are the data that I collected : [image: 1789045877906-2026-09-10-15_10_56-s-amp-op-mdd-2026-09.pptx-powerpoint.png] I’m a little bit short in data for GPS Perfoamance + HR because I’m injured so I don’t do activities of more than 50 minutes I don’t know if somebody has also data collection like that. (for information I have a Race Titanium)

    @laurent.claustre well yes, updated the app yesterday and immediately synced a route i had in library - which i know was not working previously. Now, i didn’t hike it to confirm, but preview (from navigation) shows it is fine now, as opposed to how it was before. I encourage you to update the app and try.

    Bonjour, Comment se fait-il que chez Suunto,il n’y ai pas la possibilité de voir les parcours avec différentes couleur suivant les difficultés ? À moins que je ne l’ai pas trouvé. Voir modèle de “Oruxmaps” [image: 1780729547970-7ea60608-3e85-4e93-9a70-ae5776765c0b-oruxmaps.jpg]

    I know that HR measurement at the wrist can be difficult and it is better to use a chest strap. However, even for normal walking (not even Nordic walking) I get horribly wrong measurements, e.g. yesterday the watch showed a maximum of 139 bpm in the afternoon, but an 24h-ECG (which should be 100% accurate) shows a maximum of 106 bpm in the morning (it is hard to search for the same time span). Anyhow, the difference is not acceptable! Yes the watch has correct settings (left arm) and is correctly attached to the wrist. What can I do? I need to track my pulse.

    Good day, I have a Suunto Spartan Ultra and have had it for 8 years. From my last Samsung UI update my watch has not synced my daily steps with the Suunto app. I have tried the following but not success: Restart phone and watch. Reinstall Suunto App Force stop Suunto App Unpair watch from phones Bluetooth and reconnect. Gave all items on Suunto App permission. Made sure Suunto APP and phone is not on energy saving mode. If anyone has a solution please assist. Kind regards

    I haven’t used my D5 since January; I got it out of the cupboard today to charge it as it’s dead, but I can’t remember how to attach the charger. I’ve searched the manual but it just says ‘attach’, it doesn’t explain how. There’s a red thing on the end of the cable which I seem to recall ‘snaps’ onto the watch, but right now it’s not snapping onto anything - it doesn’t stick to the back of the watch like I seem to remember. Have I got this totally wrong? Please can someone explain in simple terms how to attach the charger?! Thanks

    Interesting take! A lightweight Suunto with Stryd support would be a game-changer for runners. I doubt they’ll add it, but if they did, I’d consider it too. The T6c was legendary—2000 miles is impressive!

    @Tomas5 That’s what Strava Live segments are for - you can see how many seconds you are ahead or behind your best attempt in real time. Suunto watches do support Strava Live segments but you have to have paid Strava account to enable that on the Strava side. Then you can create a private segment on a route of your choice and keep repeating it over time using Strava Live segments S+ guide on your Suunto watch. You can also use one of existing public segments and see where you stand compared to others.

    @sky-runner Thank you for your response. I couldn’t react since I can’t log in on my phone. I was away a few days. I didn’t use snap to route. I was just following my route and decided to go different. I just ignored my watch and didn’t change a thing. Battery mode was performance mode. Hopefully I’ll do another run the next days. But these are busy days

    Ok, thank you for the feedback! Then I reduce my question to Bike Pod (no readings) and Power drops ( dropping to zero during the run). I don’t get values from a bike pod with Vertical and RaceS with current firmware. Did a restore of 2.44 on the RaceS - also didn’t help. So three samples in total and I am not the only one. Pod works with Garmin 910xt, Garmin 235, Laptop (ANT+ stick) and Suunto Ambit3 Vertical. And the Power Drops to Zero - I had them on every Run until it was resolved with 2.44. Also this was a common problem in 2.43 I think. Maybe a 2.39 could solve both issues? Its Hometrainer weather in Austria and I want to use the Pod…

    I buyed it to try and unfortunatly I can answer the question. It doesn’t work with Suunto - but with Garmin 🤮 The Sensor connects via Bluetooth, but delivers no readings. On Garmin with ANT everything works out of the box

    @docsport77 Power doesn’t work if you choose the treadmill activity, but you can use a Running activity and deactivate GPS. Not very accurate I think, but it works

    @aiv4r I’m talking about configuring it directly from the watch. But setting a very long rest time is so simple that I didn’t even think of this workaround ^^ Thank you

    My initial need is not really relevant anymore. @Egika said in Disable autolap notification during intervals: activating and de-activating autolaps will be possible with Suunto S9PP, Race, Vertical soon. But I still can’t find it anywhere. And it would be really useful to enable it manually during a session. A typical example : I start a run with the wrong sport mode, the one without autolap. After a few kilometers, I realised it and want to turn autolap on… but I couldn’t, unless I switched to another sport mode - which would split my workout into two separate activities.

    @omurray I agree. Feeling is so subjective that is skews the Recovery Metric. If my sleep and HRV are poor but my feeling after activity thew day before was very good then it reports I am ready to train. However, that morning I feel exhausted! I will skip Feeling in future to try to force the algorithm to just use HRV, Sleep and Training Load and Fatigue

    @enriqueescoms I do not know, but I guess that yes. All I’m writing here is what I can understand reading the Spanish forum. There, it has been said that a hotfix is coming with some new features and that is not Q4 update.

    Well thought out and reasonable suggestions for improvement, as usual. I would also suggest an option to display intensity zones ring/gauge on the map screen, just as it is displayed on other data pages. It would be very helpful to have it even without the corresponding numerical data field. This way, users could stay on the map page all the time without switching back and fort to check the intensity. 🥵

    @Tomas5 A little late, but yes - at least my Race S has automatic brightness. It works sometimes good, sometimes really bad. Must of the summer with the bright sun coming from one side you either have a really bright and readable display (sun side) or its unreadable (shadow side). Yesterday on a sunny autumn trailrun in the woods it worked really great. I think the more dizzy light helps. My conclusion is: AMOLED can work great - when the software helps to optimize the light settings. There is room for improvement and so is hope…

    @Alpha-156.42 said in OHR: Why do people believe that optical heart rate sensors, no matter if they’re from Garmin, Apple, or other brands, can measure heart rate accurately in every situation? This is why, text directly from suunto race 2 product page: The redesigned back panel enables better heart rate measurement from the wrist. The result? A seamless, powerful training experience. But text that it doesn’t work for everyone or every skin tone is buried somewhere in usermanual only. It is same with sleeptracking or any other metric. If you sell device for 500€ and advertise that it does something, then you must expect that people will require that advertised features just works. This is overal problem of marketing, not just Suunto.
