@isaac.net I get that was just wondering if Suunto added artificial cut of distance for masses, that usually run more than actual race distance. (mostly road, since trail folks usually do not care that much about ±400meters).

@Mister-PYC I agree with you. In this case who really cares about the values after the dot. But saying that 43 and 43.0 means the same is not correct from a metrological point of view when the figures are correctly estimated. Just pointing that (and nitpicking a little bit…).

@aqua86 Thank you for your feedback. Let’s hope this is implemented soon. In my view, this should be done within the app, as it is the app that passes the data on to Ocean.

@SamuelP I once had a problem installing watch faces, so I reset the settings. Now I’ve decided not to wait for the watch update after all, but to reset the settings instead. Of course, it’s a shame that I have to set everything up again, download maps, and wait for the HRV and ZoneSense ranges to be calculated. I’m curious to see how Suunto will resolve this issue—will the new software version help, or is the problem somewhere else entirely, meaning I’ll have to reset the settings anyway?

I wanted to know if it was a normal behavior of the watch because on my side it is a problem because it turns on almost all the time the watch and so the autonomy is not there

@DonTomGot can’t help you but absolutely support your project !

@Роман-Баранцев said in Suunto Spark: @dreamer_ The problem lies in the simultaneous work of the suunto assistant and the Google assistant. Probably available in all languages. The thing is that both audios are happening at the same time. It’s super weird. And if you configure the watch in english, the issue is gone.

@microniko Yes, the S+ app does (or should) detect the transitions and create laps. Just this happens all within the single sport mode (running). So you end up with a running activity that has laps for when you change in and out of swimming. Repeat option: Without repeat, you get just Run -> Swim -> end If your event is more than just one swim and one run, then you would want Run -> Swim -> Run -> Swim -> Run -> Swim and so on, until you end the whole thing. This is repeating.

@TyreseJ4 two comments: battery life is not an online hype, but one of the key specs of a sport watch. my S9B Ambassador is slow and the battery not in anyway living up to the one in Vertical 2 I would sell it, if it was not the Ambassador version and thus some kind of collectable…

Anything that increases font size has my blessing.

@2b2bff I think it was supposed to remember the external HR sensor per activity/sport, but it isn’t how it seems to work.

Comfortable to wear, as well as excellent sound quality and microphone. They are not a runnig sensor (I believed the marketing promises)

@manno02 I’m not using the vertical 2 but this issues seem to happen across several devices. I stopped using the chest strap until this is solved because the OHR works fine on the Suunto Run.

@aiv4r Thank you! I’m now looking for AirBnB accommodation for the UTA 22 next year I love this watch but I’m kicking myself for not trying on the Race 2 and the updated bands at the Suunto stand…

Wish I had read this thread before spending $10 on HRV4Training and $15 on RunGap to get Suunto HRV, resting heart rate and Sleep data over to TrainingPeaks. Why does Suunto have to have a walled garden for athlete’s data even when trying to use 3rd party services? Pretty sure Suunto won’t be my next watch.

Have to say, what you don’t know you cannot miss. But last year, in a very dark hotelroom, the screenflashlight of my race s was sufficient for my wife to find something on the table while I could stay in bed. So, for now, I’m in “what’s all the fuss about” mode. The digital crown of my race s is complex. Just using it to scroll up or down through menus or items is hideous. The 5 button layout of my previous garmin was better, but with touchscreen I don’t use the buttons very often. But to zoom in and out in a map it’s great. Again with a but. I was used to zoom on the garmin and it was horrible. Complex and buggy as hell. So is the crown just better that worst case garmin or would a 5 button Suunto implementation beat the digital crown? Might. perhaps. Not unlikely. Have to say, the race s provides the features I want in the smallest possible case, so the vertical 2 wouldn’t be competition for my race s (for me). So 5 buttons or a digital crown wasn’t a consideration. Have to say, 5 buttons shouts a bit more outdoorsy and a digital crown a bit more watch like.
