Leaks: New Suunto Race 3 and Race 3S Confirmed in Government Filings https://www.chinesesmartwatches.com/leaks-new-suunto-race-3-and-race-3s-confirmed-in-government-filings/

@Brad_Olwin I always run 2-3 days after races. Only for all-out Marathons, I take two weeks off. My HR is not really influenced by these races. It is not more than the usual ±4 bpms during easy runs at aerobic LT. Of course my legs are tired and the muscular effort feels way higher for the pace but HR is the same for the speed that I run. I would be then not able to run for long time at my LT but due to fatigue. HR is then still in the expected corridor for that pace. Only experienced strong deviations of LT HR at return to sport after stronger infections like COVID and always the first 3 days of winter training camp on the canarien islands. There my body is always completely overwhelmed by the sudden 25°C temperature difference. SZ though told me so many times, I would be way above or below my threshold even though RPE, HR, and pace was exactly as expected. During the training camp SZ always told me that my Real-Time effort should be way higher. No way that I could ever run under that sudden higher temps at that HR which was close to my 1k all-out HR. Real-Time effort does not work at all for me, while average reported thresholds over more than hundred activities come close.

@André-Faria meeehhh, Suunto have been plagued with battery drain issues for years, and their fix are not always fixing anything. my 9 peak pro can’t reach half of the (still promised on their website) 21 days battery life since at least 18 months, so without a real fix, the praise is yet to be made

@Sascha-Domres makes sense, I get your point but it is more like I would buy Coros Apex 4 or similar and go to their community and start complaining that they do not support “tags” on activities and I am so dissapointed in all they do

I’d love a red light option for the flashlight (Race S screen flashlight) and automatic update of my min and max HR based on resting or sleeping heart rate.

Had a reply from divevolk : Thank you for your inquiry about the Divevolk SL50 underwater video light. Yes, our SL50 is equipped with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) shielding. The housing is made from aviation-grade aluminum alloy with military-grade oxidation (Class III) treatment, which provides effective electromagnetic shielding. The product is CE certified for electromagnetic compatibility, ensuring compliance with international EMC standards. On the next dive i need to take my old dive lights to rule them out of interference.

@André-Faria It is hard to claim warranty for this. The watch restarts randomly. My seller says: the fault did not appear.

@Łukasz-Szmigiel Of course - no rush, and appreciate you are doing this voluntarily. I can always roughly convert speeds in my head - mph is roughly double m/s. By the way, it’s a Vertical 2 watch. And thanks again for the app!

Reported bug looks like it needs a watch reboot. After 24days of no reboot it appears. Known and under fix. For now reboot the watch via 12s upper button.

@isazi said: with a new route, or the same as last week? Both, newly created and re-enabled old ones.

@Goatee Suunto reached out to me via email asking for more information (watch serial number, app version, etc.). I sent them the deets, so I’ll see where things go from there. Hopefully we can isolate the bug and get it fixed.

@Thorlap71 said: @Danny-poleg Before trying to get my watch replaced because of reboots, do you think I should try to revert my watch back to 2.48.16 firmware which is the only previous version available in my “Select OTA pkg”. Is this a reasonable thing to do? Hello. I downgraded and no more reboot. It usually rebooted3-4 times a days, at rest as well as during activity. Regard

@Tieutieu Battery drain: Same here

Super Suunto, I have to congratulate you! Now you are completely on par with Garmin, which is why I switched to Suunto. Another restart today, riding my bike home from work. I stopped and pressed stop while the watch was in autopause mode. A restart followed. That wouldn’t be such a horror, but all the sport mode settings were lost and now are in factory defaults! Completely same behaving like Garmin, but with Garmin I had the option to restore the settings… Just sent logs. @isazi @dimitrios-kanellopoulos I use only Zone sense from Suunto+

@isazi Yeah, let’s hope they implement it as soon as possible.

They keep adding trail features to a watch called Run, yet there’s still no way to customize interval fields. ‍️

@duffman19 So I tried first with a short stretching activity. Delete from SA, log out of SA, login again, resync and it showed the activity again. However. doing so with my long run, seems to not resync although it’s still on the watch (at least showing on the watch. I noticed. Daily HR, steps, resources are all in SA including the activity time. But GPS and activity stats are not. Would be great to ad Fit/json manualy Back into SA. That’s possible? Is it possible json and fit files are deleted if you uninstal SA?? Would be an explanation I can’t find them on my phone anymore.

@maszop can you give me some details about your disconnects with Vertical 2 and the new firmware? I will forward them to Suunto.

@johann.fuehrer Sorry to hear that. It’s really annoying when the record of an activity is not complete. I really hope as well, that Suunto will find a solution to this (soon).
