@wmichi said in Well, I tried the Race.. and I think I’m selling the Vertical:
@Sezer-Yiğit It’s the same for daily use and sport activities: If you don’t raise your wrist, the screen is in a dimmed state (always on mode enabled) or completely off when always on mode is off. In the dimmed state it’s difficult to read. But for sports like running this is not a problem, because you raise your wrist anyway when you look at the watch.
I was going to buy the Race after seeing the Amoled screen but re-reading your posts, I think your experience is the best advice about why to stick with Vertical. I think the SV it’s the best watch of the market at this moment.
In my case I bike and swim, but mostly run long distances. The SR is fine for even a 100 miler race but I think that the Race is specially good when you are only running.
Many people say that Amoled technology is here to let die MIP but I’m not that sure. That wrist gesture is not only to save battery but to prevent Amoled panels from burning in a short time. And there’s the thing that MIP is better in many situations when multisport or direct sunlight or even when Amoled can be dangeours because of the wrist gesture.
In the other hand the software of the SV still needs some fixes that the SR seems to have (sleep, naps, step counter). And both need at least the fixes about the multiple sensors of the same type, the wake up alarms for weekdays or improve the TBT notifications.
