Run 2

@jthomi I asked people at Suunto for an answer, I did not test this watch
Watch: Suunto Vertical 2 Titanium Black

Thank you @isazi
Not testing anymore or just not this one? -
@jthomi not this one, I do not particularly like the Run family of watches, and I only have two wrists
-
@Highlands €50 for unused space is a however incredibly unnecessary
-
Not saying that Dave is right here, but…
Either way, Suunto seems to have flubbed the clarification of the difference between the two versions, especially with the early reviews.
Maybe the 4gb model wasn’t originally going to have maps, but Suunto changed their mind after the Coros announcement?
This sounds plausible and would correlate quite well with the naming convention!

@duffman19 To be fair, this isn’t Suunto directly but their U.S.-based PR firm OutsidePR. They’ve given me wrong information before too, so it’s not super surprising.
-
@TrailEyes Yeah, I don’t imagine he has a direct link to the best information. It’s just a bummer that the confusion happened in the first place.
-
The maps on Run 2 are the same, whatever memory you get.
The difference to the more outdoor and adventure focused watches is that there are no extra labels, like street names, POIs etc. You get contour lines and this is pretty much it.
Good enough to follow a route, a little limited to explore the unknown

@GratefulDeadpan Not really cause I can fill more than 10GB with offline music. But each to their own.
-
@Highlands yeah I was obviously talking from my perspective. As in that I wouldn’t have music on the watch at all in the first place—so in other words unused space for me.

@Egika Ty! Wonder if Suunto will budge on this given how Coros present maps on Pace 4 which in a way then presents a better value (to some). For me it won’t matter much as I would just need to see where a trail might take me, and if I should choose different and it seems I will be able to make that call with the Run 2.
