@Egika https://www.wearablefans.com/2026/07/27/i-have-just-spotted-suunto-race-3-and-race-3s-in-imda-singapore/ It seems there’s something more now…

@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.

ah here https://www.suunto.com/en-gr/sports/News-Articles-container-page/suunto-core-2-vs-core-1-whats-new-and-why-it-matters/

@MartinPadiPro Yes, but let me guarantee you that you will encounter the same issue soon (if Suunto doesn’t fix the issue in an update). Between my first and second time I had 5 months diving without issues, between second and third, 1 month.

@GratefulDeadpan said: @Highlands said: https://the5krunner.com/2026/07/28/suunto-race-3-race-3-s-leak/ Interesting to read there that the Race 3 will have mineral glass and the Race 3S would have sapphire—making it the more premium option. If this is to be true. Sapphire might make a stronger watch but also harder to read. I’m happy with the clear glass on my watch, but I also know someone with a scattered forerunner 965 who wished in had a sapphire lens like the fenix 3 he had before.

Tide widget started working again today. Watch hasn’t left the house in the last 48 hours so I’m not sure what has changed. Perhaps Suunto has been working behind the scenes to fix it? Still not sure where they are getting their tide data from as it differs a bit from the tide tables of both my nearest ports. High and low tide times are out by between 10 and roughly 20 minutes on the widget. Still gives my location as Scotland, UK.

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

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.

Tiny fonts again - poor.

@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

@VoiGAS for the EON, thats correct as they hold both tables. You can switch over or set Buhlmann as default where locks do not occur. But this does not downplay the fact that the ceiling was not followed and decompression was not finalized. This will have impact on further calculations as Buhllman also does not know to further calculate correctly. So better not to have these sitiations and allways follow the indicators on the computer to the letter. Suunto does make the difference between voluntary or mandatory decompression stops. The lock only applies to the latter. The screen showed in the link indicates a mandatory situation which is explained by Suunto… you get a warning to go to the ceiling of 6,5 meter. You need to do that within 3 minutes and sit out the deco as long as indicated by the EON, in this case 75 minutes which is far from beeing recreational… If you fail - after warnings like the red ceiling indication and audible signal - to comply within 3 minutes, the computer locks for 48 hours. So you might say it indeed locks during the end of the dive.

@VoiGAS said: The Run is the weight king (queen?) It should as it is one of its selling points…

@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.

@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]

@bubuche I would use Runalyze or another external platform for that. Now I‘ve been using the latest updates for a bit, I think we‘re there. I thought about using predicted wind from the weather app, but you end up losing accuracy as soon as buildings are involved. I will look at using the accelerometer perhaps, but felt it was overkill when I started with this app. It might solve the grade latency issue though. I‘ll play around with it at some point.

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

@Squirrel I can only tell what I observe. The gnss data is synced right when your watch is connected to the suunto app on the phone. At least, at some point the sync process is saying it is syncing gps data.
