      @Tomas5 said: sky-runner for me readibility is good (37yo) but it is really small so it can be hard in few years I am 55 and still have a decent eyesight and not wearing glasses unless I need to read something in tiny print. But it would be unreasonable to expect me to wear reading glasses when using the watch. And without glasses it is extremely hard for me to read these labels. It may be not just the font size but the font type, spacing and outlines. I compared the labels between Suunto and Garmin. With nearly the same font size, Garmin labels are somehow significantly easier to read. Trail and ultra runners are in general older in age. The average age of ultra runners is 42-43 years old, and there are a lot of us in their 50s and 60s. Ultrarunners are one of the target categories of users for Suunto watches - people who are more likely to buy it because of the longer battery life and features. So in my opinion there should be an effort to cater to older users. Also, older users tend to have more disposable income and more likely to buy an expensive watch like Vertical 2.

      @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.

      @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.

      I understand that the distance accuracy used to affect running more than other activities. I don’t run, but I noticed that my R2 was always a bit short on distance when cycling. Not much, but noticable. Around 300 m on a 50 km ride. It was somewhat frustrating when my ride was just 50.2 km and it was reported as 49.9 (as if I did not reach my target ). The latest update improved the accuracy. It is still a wee bit short, but it seems that it might be missing <100 m (70-80) (still on a 50 km loop). In all cases, I compare the Strava distance, a Garmin (Edge Explore 2), and R2. The difference might be also due to different ways each tool treats stops and pauses (I.e., how much distance you have to move or what speed you need to reach before they assume that you are moving again).

      @isazi I only have a recent (as in today) reaction from Suunto stating they haven’t got a clue what causes the problem, let alone how to fix it. But please do report it, with logs, when it happens again. That would be very helpful.

      working well here too. I would have to dig it up, but I think the alert is triggered by a certain speed. If you walk away slower, it will not alert you.

      @elbee I did right now, but as I have seen that this topic is around for some years on different watches and also on the V2 I assumed this was already reported.(never assume someone did it, just do it by yourself - I forgot about this all overall known wisdom). So let’s see…

      @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos thanks for the recommendation. Mine is dropping a few meters but then it is slowly getting back to normal. Is this what you are experiencing?

      @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

      When HR stopped to record because of the dead HR sensor battery, why NGP and a number of other metrics have also stopped?

      @aiv4r Yes, NGP and a few other metrics that should not have anything to do with HR. And because of that r-TSS hasn’t been calculated correctly - I believe it depends on NGP.

      Yes, Resources algorithm is complete nonsense. On my Race S, it is affected by battery charging, as if it measures battery stress. 🧐 After charging the battery in the morning, the resources would decline in red over the whole day! Now I only charge at night before sleep, so this way I only get one or two bars of red, because sleep phase seems to not be affected by this phenomena.

      @brechtvb Thanks a lot for your reply! I really appreciate you sharing your experience and the Bosch eBike project. It looks like a great starting point for understanding how BLE communication works in Open SuuntoPlus. My goal is actually quite simple. I’d like to connect to a GoPro and display information such as: Recording status Battery level Remaining storage or recording time At least for the first version, I don’t even need camera control. I’ll definitely take a look at the project you shared. If I make any progress, I’ll post an update here so others can benefit as well. Thanks again!
