@isazi said in Suunto Race S general discussion:
The complication design is constrained by the watch face (some are round, some are rectangles, and so on), but it works very well.
Once confirmed the complications if you tap on any they do not change, right?
correct. the circular changing by tapping is gone with the full customisation.
-
Any ideas anybody when the Race S can be ordered in Germany?
-
@Patrick-Löffler-0 in the US you can already order it. No idea when it will be on stock for Germany…
-
@Egika that implies a lot of refresh of the page for me damn
They could have put a date on the page of the product
Ocean was open for orders 2 days after announcement if I remember well I was expecting the same for the SRS -
What is the purpose of this hole next to the baro sensor? -
@Hari-Seldon Wind blowing less affecting the sensor? Getting water out?

Got it! I hope it is effective or at least mitigates the issue

@EzioAuditore
Found in a spanish forum
-
@raceaddict Yes I assumed so. It’s a design other brands share as well.
-
@raceaddict Knowing that on the Race the design is already different from the two options in your photo.
The holes are located just below the logo at the bottom of the ring.
-
@Hari-Seldon it is part of the baro design, allows for water to get out easily and not get trapped inside.
-
@isazi To your knowledge, have any tests been conducted even in high wind conditions as well? This is probably the issue I am most interested in… my 9PP used to go crazy in those situations
-
Cool to see that Suunto brings some small upgrades about wind or mater effect on elevation mesurement…
But I still don’t get if it is a very frequent problem with current models. I have been using my SV in very wet and windy conditions many times, and it has always been perfectly accurate. That was absolutely not the case with my A3P and my S9b that were awefull on that. -
@Hari-Seldon I would say, results are kind inconclusive, because it all depends on how you wear your watch. The new position is better in some cases, and worse in others. There is no one placement that solves all cases.

i made an account just to say,
32GB of storage without music feature is a bit confusing right?I get that not all 32 will be made available the user and I completely understand that it is a small team working passionately on this.
I’ll even readily acknowledge the target audience of this device don’t particularly care for music storageBUT, tossing in a rudimentary music player would be nice. I don’t care about spotify, youtube music, deezer, pandora, tidal or whatever is new. I’ll do the legwork of compiling the music files myself; just let me dump them on the watch and connect my headphones to listen to them.
the lack of this feature is single-handedly stopping me from rocking a suunto. I like the design language, I like materials, I need music storage, I can’t go back to holding something, I won’t do it.I’m in no rush and I’ll happily wait for this feature. I want a Suunto and I want a music player on a Suunto. I missed the boat with wearos + suunto 7 hopefully it comes back.
thanks for coming to my TED talk

@zebulon I think you will be waiting a while for mp3 on a suunto watch. Maybe a separate, dedicated bluetooth mp3 player might be a better option? There are loads of tiny players around and, for those who do care about Spotify and Amazon Music playing there’s options like the Mighty 3 player. Or you could always opt for headphones with music storage
-
Is there any update on a release date?
I’m toying with this or the normal race in amethyst but I’m worried the normal race may be too big!
As it’s on the website with price and colour options I was hoping it wouldn’t be too far away!
-
@Bexs2247 depends on availability, it is already shipping in the US, some retailers may already have them also in Europe, the Suunto store should have them available soon.
-
@isazi seems 9 July is the date in Europe
-
@taziden is it foreseen ?
