The new version is in - 1.42 which should be easier on the UI processing. Happy testing!

@sindavide Yes it sucks. I’ve bought cheap backup and it works better than original one. Stronger magnets.

@dreamer_ said in My Vertical 2 Wishlist for Next Update in 2026: Better integration with Spark: https://forum.suunto.com/topic/15018/suunto-spark/ And Aqua. Basically treat them as the chest strap is treated: sync and merge after, the code already exists afterall. Stops it being a marketing exercise of a feature and into something useful.

@Albert-Willem-Knop EPOC is available as a data field for custom mode.

@Thlcd great comparison. I also have noticed that the last update, although full of bugs and battery eating, greatly improved the wrist HR on the Race S. Previously I only used the HR chest strap, but after reading comments here I gave it a chance for walking and body building – for biking the watch is on the handlebar, so I need the strap. Well, after a few tries, I have to say that finally it seems that it works well!

@elbee tnx for your help. Indeed that was the issue, tested it this morning. In the trainingsoptions menu there is als the option to switch off the wrist measurement.

I received an update on the matter after contacting Suuntos support team. After shipping off all my logs and specifications, I received this: *As per the reply from our technical team, we recommend restarting the watch before exercising and trying to use fewer Suunto Plus apps during activities. Please note that this issue has already been identified and is expected to be addressed in the next software update.*
