I still think it would be much easier – and therefore faster – to implement this in the SuuntoApp rather than in the watch software. You could achieve not only the same results but even more. Plus, you wouldn’t have all the limitations – sleep analysis, recovery, TSS, CTL, ATL, HRV, etc. You could also, for example, use different activities during a multi‑day trek – like swimming, climbing, or via ferrata – without having to deal with complicated activity session management or multisport mode. Additionally, full freedom of sensor management between different parts of a multi‑day activity. Reboot, update etc. between days etc. On top of that, it would be available to every user (like ZoneSense), not just those with the latest watches. And you wouldn’t have to pray that a crash doesn’t happen during such long and complex recorded activities. You could also relatively easily group and combine selected activities into one final one, and then – like with any regular activity – export it automatically to other services, just as it currently happens at the end of every activity. Especially since, in such a case, it’s really only about the total distance, elevation gain, duration, and a few less important stats like steps or calories. All the other statistics are far more useful on a daily (per session) basis for ongoing analysis.

@babychai No no, never used screen protector. Suunto saphire glass is very good, no need to protect it with a weaker layer IMO. But I think it’s a hardware issue, watch is not in warranty anymore, but I can live with it, until Suunto Vertical 3 release :). Cheers.

Just checked the “new” features in the video of the Ocean: They were all present in the latest update. So I guess we cannot expect a new firmware

It’s a beautiful watch, that’s for sure. But it seems Suunto didn’t really change much compared to the original core. In some ways it’s even a downgrade. When I’ve seen that there will be bluetooth I was hoping there would be some kind of recording (altitude, time, depth etc.) or even some simple poi/route guidance with location data from mobile phone. I mean it’s still core, it’s beautiful looking watch, but I feel there was much potential and they kind of missed a shot…

Nexus is back! [image: 1784826491557-1000041066.jpg] [image: 1784826491609-1000041065.jpg] Looks great and it has live Heartrate! Unfortunately only available for the Race S, but not the Vertical

@Egika Also yes to all. Still just giving location as ‘Scotland’ I’m actually not that far from Fort William mentioned earlier. I’ve just compared it with local tide tables and it’s about 40 minutes and 0.3m wrong on the low tide forecast for Mallaig which is just up the coast. Not big errors but potentially critical for threading a sea kayak through various local channels. For example - close to me there is an island (Eilean Ighe for those who know the area) separated from the mainland by a narrow channel. I know I can paddle through this when the height of the tide at Mallaig is 3.5m. If I get this wrong then it’s normally straightforward to go round the outside of the island. But if the weather is severe (or unexpectedly deteriorates) timing for the channel to avoid the conditions is important. Now of course I can use other resources to plan this but it’s a shame if the watch can’t give me that information. An example would be a leisurely long day, no weather or tidal stream issues, arriving nearby at an unplanned time and just deciding the best route back by making a quick check to see if the channel is open or not.

@freeheeler I sold my Ambit 3 watch when I bought my Vertical 1. Now I use a Vertical 2, but I haven’t sold my Vertical 1. I wear it occasionally. Legendary watches

Tiny fonts again - poor.

@raven 9 Peak Pro Ultra!

@Inge-Nallsson thank you for the detailed reply. Watch face is the same. No improvement. Will wait for the update. Thank you

@Hugues78fr said: I don’t know how they test How anyone could test dive device? Probably dancing is the best way

@sartoric No, no protector, suunto has the best saphire glass And always clean. Maybe it’s a hardware fault as @tieutieu and @isazi mentioned. Well, glad to know that it still working as before on some watches because the timing it changes on mine, sure looks like it was being deprecated. Thank you all for the clarification.

@VoiGAS I checked it. Just when i got 195 stays there. It does not go crazy. I checked my gas time at the start that one is a bit nuts. 68 min then 4 5 6 7 back to 75. Normally i dive around 70 to 80 min with 200 bars 10 liters. But i hope Suunto comes with a update

@Egika @maszop I can only share my experiences. I sometimes get the notification when my speed is clearly under 5.4km/h and quite often I don’t get a notification when I walk faster than 5.4km/h. I live in the Netherlands, not a really challenging gnss surrounding. Current pase with gps isn’t the most accurate, but I sometimes continue to hike for over 500 meter and then gps should have a fairly accurate pace.

@elbee Thanks for your input but I wasn’t buying it so did some further testing. Fired up my old 9Peak & connected the HR sensor to that, exactly the same outcome with constant connect/disconnect so it’s the sensor that’s faulty rather than my Race. I’ve sent it back to Suunto via online service request & as it’s only 8 months old I’m hoping for a warranty exchange

Test run today with a Garmin. Race2 passed with flying colors. A huge thanks to the developers. Great job, guys. [image: IMG-20260718-123733.jpg]

@2b2bff Yes, but I think 1gram difference is ok… at least my kitchen scale cannot measure after the comma

The replacement charging cable for the Vertical 2 is still not available in Türkiye. They said it will be available soon. We’re waiting.

@Squirrel don’t know. This is iOS beta 3.13
