@burrowsnp I agree about the brightness. Sleep mode needs to be scaled down a bit. When it’s not in sleep mode and it’s dark in the room or outside, it scales up rather than down (maybe an issue with the ambient light sensor in that environment). I didn’t see the same issues with the HRM though. Could be related to the ZoneSense issue - I haven’t used ZoneSense yet myself, so I hope it gets fixed as it seems quite useful! I disable wrist HR for runs when I use an external HRM (using the Garmin HRM Pro and sometimes the COROS HRM). The problem I’m having is we’re all waiting on an update from our friends at Suunto as to whether these are known issues that will be addressed in a software update, or will some of these be blown past and have us wait for two or three more release cycles. Garmin watches have similar issues and it’s sometimes upwards of a year before they get all the bugs out. I’m testing the new Coros watch as well and it’s basically bug free right out of the gate. Not to mention when you engage in their forum, the team actually responds (and often times it’s the CEO himself). The watch has a ton of potential - just a few hot fixes needed soon. Would be a good idea for Suunto to reach out to some of us passionate users to beta test devices before public release so these can ironed out.

@GiPFELKiND well, yesterday it worked but today it failed again…

@Egika Yes, the OHR LED is still flashing, I can even see the HR on the graph in the Suunto App during the night [image: 1757491107519-screenshot_20250910-095321.png]

@Tami999 this is working as designed

@Artus-Diver not only acceptable but this is absolute PERFECT!! check this the older drifts of gps https://forum.suunto.com/topic/13279/open-water-gps-drifting/57?_=1757339542401

More a judge by the eye. During the day, I could actually notice differences. Especially on the lighter maps. These are really only subtle differences, but at least there’s a difference. It would still be better if there were more than three levels of brightness.

Hello. I probably miss something but I set “Buttons off” under General / Tones But still when launching an activity (if GPS is not yet ready or when starting / pausing / stoping) it beeps and vibrate Is this the right way to disable any button beep (if not could you pelase tell me how to do that) ? And if so do other Race 2 users have the same issue ? Race 2 / Firmware 2.46.4 Thanks

@helgonet12 Indoor, watch mode, just raising my wrist I and pressing button for full activation of the watch, I was surprise one more time by the brightness. That was not ‘low’ at all, more high than low or even medium. So I went in the general setting, set display to medium and screen came back to an effective ‘medium’ brightness. Then I set it on Low, and then brightness was lower than medium. So I guess there is a bug about that display setting

I would return it, it looks like a manufacturing problem.

@Stoke80 Ok, then I see the reason behind this setup. Thank you

@krzyśMac Hey, at the moment Resources do not match the phone app, it’s apparently a bug. In my experience sleep tracking was a bit better with Race 1, in my case Race 2 doesn’t recognise waking times (when I go to the toiled during night i.e.), it doesn’t show. The graph you are asking about is fixed, you cannot change it at the moment. Other than that it’s a pretty good watch, just not that advanced compared to Race S/Race 1 at this time. Of course, compared to Race S the display is huge. And I think more features come in the future, but right now I wouldn’t see a reason to upgrade, other than the display.

@surfboomerang Thanks for the reply. 1: is fixed with custom sports mode, perfect! 2: a little annoying that i have to turn dnd on/ off manually, but mybe it will be an option to turn notifications off during workout, in future fw. 3: not good- button lock on, sports data pages still changing with a short press of middle button. A custom sportmode, can help, just having one page, or only usefull pages, that will do fine. Even worse, a force reset was made twice during my latest workout, im not even sure which button needs to be activated to perform that hard reset, but it did, twice, during handstand and handstand walk

@szleslie it is totally fine to report any finding here. It is not necessarily a bug and often other users know how to solve a certain situation. Of course it always makes sense to first search the forum before posting something, as it might have been discussed before. But noone will be punished if there are duplicates. I only know some bugs (mostly the ones I reported personally), so I don’t have the full picture. There is no public list of know bugs.

I read it as you can change them on the watch and synchronize with the app, or?
