      @Jan-Van-de-Velde maybe this will not help you because my use case is different but…

      • AOD OFF
      • Notifications OFF
      • 24/7 OHR OFF
      • Sleep Track OFF
      • 4h GPS activity per week
      • 1h no-GPS activity per week
        I am getting around 17-18 days of battery.

        For me:
        AOD OFF
        Notifications ON
        24/7 OHR ON
        Sleep Track ON

        I think it was 12-15 days last time (not 100% sure when i charged it). I had like 15% left.

        Weeks before same settings + 3h of GPS excercise (half of excercise with AOD) it lasted 9 days and i had 33% when connecting to charger again.

          @Tomas5 said in Race 2 daily use battery life:

          not 100% sure when i charged it

          This is the best proof to me that battery life is huge !

              @Tomas5 I have also bad memory considering my SV last charge. But I remember well about my SRs. 🤪

                @Tieutieu i wrote down time of last charging. Now it is exactly 7 days and battery is 52%. I had just 1h40m of gps excercise and 1h of non gps excercise. All tracking enabled. AOD off. So it is very good.

                  Hi,
                  My settings:
                  AOD OFF
                  Notifications ON
                  24/7 OHR ON
                  Sleep Track ON
                  Last charge at 100% : Thrusday 16th afternoon.
                  Friday 17th: 10 hours trail running race with navigation on the screen
                  Tuesday 21th: 1 hour running activity (GPS + HR)
                  Thursday 23rd: 1 hour running activity (GPS + HR)
                  Battery is currently 56%.
                  If I compare with my Fenix 8 Amoled, I would say Suunto battery life in better in activity with GPS but less impressive in day to day (smartwatch) usage.

                      @Jan-Van-de-Velde With AOD it’s about 7 days, I guess when you use every day the GPS maybe 6 days.

                        @Tomas5 mine looks very similar. I log on average 30-45min gps a day. AOD off, lowest brightness and raise to wake display only

                          @jannis thanks for the input. I bought a Race 2 about two weeks ago. Battery life with everything on (AOD, 24HR, blood oxygen measurement, sleep tracking, notifications, etc.) and 10hr of GPS exercise per week is about 6 days. I was hoping for a bit more, but I’m generally happy with that.

                            @Jan-Van-de-Velde With all those settings, on thats quite good comparatively speaking with the competition.

                              After the update, however, it has become much better. 🙏
