Suunto Vertical 2 General Discussion

[Martin Vrska]

@pavel.samokha After waking up the watch with a hand movement, the set widget does not launch. I have to press one of the outer buttons and only then can it launch. Does anyone else have this? Performed a soft reset, version 2.46.12. Someone solved a similar problem on Race S. I apologize for any duplication. Thanks.

[Audaxjoe]

@Martin-Vrska daft question maybe but have you got the raise to wake setting on display only? Off memory there are two settings. One wakes up the screen fully.

I have it setup so I need to press a button to make the screen active.

[Brad_Olwin]

@Martin-Vrska Which widget? To launch a saved widget a button press is required.

[Martin Vrska]

@Audaxjoe Yes, I have it set to: full wake mode - medium brightness - always on display: off.

[Martin Vrska]

@Brad_Olwin Yes: I raise my hand, the display lights up. I press the middle button (in my case, the widget with HRV), but the watch doesn’t respond. Only when I press the bottom or top button and the watch wakes up does the middle button respond as it should. (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1quab4uFF63MXh8eJekxQ495aGKxaxHcC/view?usp=drive_link)

I have the same problem. Plus a lot more (battery drain and bugs). I am returning my v2 and keep the v1 instead

[BastMaSVSRS9PP]

How is the built quality of the watch? I saw people commenting on tilted screens and loose buttons.

[Christos Chryssochoidis]

@BastMaSVSRS9PP, I really wanted to like this watch, but those quality issues with the screen are a turn off for me. I’d better look at something more mature.

[Audaxjoe]

@BastMaSVSRS9PP No issues with my V2. Buttons feel solid, same as V1 and screen is fine.

Can an update fix this error?

EDIT: I went back to FW 2.42.42 and so far the problem seems to be gone.

I have same issue, Suunto know about this problem or not.

you are talking about the Race 1 battery here?

I´m talking about battery life compare V2 vs. R1.

I gave my son a V2 as a gift, but unfortunately it was defective because the screen was tilted. I requested a RMA and the new one just arrived. Problem solved.

That’s decent of Suunto.
Thanks a lot for letting us know.

@Christos-Chryssochoidis
The watch hasn’t been released for sale in Türkiye yet.
I’ll check it out when it arrives.
I hope we don’t experience these problems here either.

[Highlands]

Asking again: can’t we have only “Baro” on top of the graph instead of trying to fit the whole word “Barometer”?

[Antoine Lancrenon]

I just realized something V1 is the mip version of the V2.
V2 is not a replacement, just an improvement. this is how it is marketized as a matter of fact.

suunto is keeping the v1 and v2 in parallel. I understand now why there is no MiP V2. it is to soon. both wiil get similar updates (until when?? this is the question) it is confirming that Ill wait for the v3. I am only attracted by the led torch, I still love my V1 and his solar/mip capacities. and is more than enough in terms of performance, even if I am a tech geek, I’ll wait

[Doodoo Runner]

@Antoine-Lancrenon I believe once the V1 is sold out then that is it for production.

[Antoine Lancrenon]

@Doodoo-Runner a yes? there are terminating the producion of v1!? may be there are lots of stock. it is weird giving the marketing:

Suunto Vertical 2
Ultimate adventure watch for outdoor expeditions and training — improved

where as v1:

Suunto Vertical
Adventure watch for outdoor expeditions and training.

I can’t take it anymore with the HR sensor bug that randomly shuts off. It messes up all my sleep stats, which are crucial for me!!! I have sleep disorders and with Suunto I can’t monitor properly. I have to sleep with 2 watches…​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
