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/

@2b2bff said: @pbanon said: I posted about it a few weeks ago and people lost their minds about how idiotic they thought the feature was. I think you misunderstood something there. It is not idiotic, but there are just different use cases. Coming from Garmin and expecting something to be there is one thing. Saying it is the most basic thing is another. Garmin will auto save a paused activity after some time. That is why resume later is essential if you have a longer break. Suunto does not. You can have an activity in pause till the battery dies. So, resume later isn’t that essential anymore. Correct if I am wrong, but if an activity is in pause, it will still use more battery than in regular watch mode no? For me it is a nice feature, but not something I would die for. I also criticize garmin for having that on watches and not on edge computers. But again it is a nice thing but not to die for ,for me.

@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.

@Elipsus there is always a reason behind these things. We don’t know how it was measured for their pub…also everyday software and specs evolves so maybe it has an impact. Battery drain and crashes is something that I believe every brand is plagued nowadays…depending on model, firmware…and sometimes on some of them a reset just magically solves everything (my experience with garmin). I want to believe that suunto, as everybrand do their best to fix this stuff, for sure in a “viable economical way”. Not touching a 9 peak pro kinda doesn’t surprise me (even if I don’t like) but not touching/fixing a Race S would be a bit hard for them… Let’s see what future brings for us… Maybe we should contact support instead of talking here, this way they could “measure” the real number of affected people (Assuming it is not counted here).

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.

@SergioB Yes, can confirm. I created a new route on Sunday and the first climb segment was grey. Also, once I was past that first segment, it disappeared from the overall profile - the route profile showed on the watch as if it started in the middle and I could not zoom out to full profile. The official UTMB route downloaded from the race website has this issue too.

@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).
