Suunto Core 2

@Ze-Stuart it connects to the Suunto app via Bluetooth to sync the time, sunrise and sunset times, and step count

Just the BT connection is not on all the time (otherwise the battery won’t last). You have to initiate the sync specifically on the watch, if needed (usually not needed :))

Kudos to suunto team four launching this device! From features to pricing I think it is kinda correct.

Just a note, on the bottom of the page with the comparison it says core 2 on both columns.

Rather an evolution than a revolution I think. But for the price its very attractive. What I think is strange is that the water resistance increased from 50m to 100m, but depth sensor for snorkeling decread from 10m to 2m. I am not a good snorkeler, but even I manage to dive more then 2 Meters…

@André-Faria which one? This is as it should be:

[VoiGAS]

@Egika it was both “2” just 5 minutes ago. So already fixed

Back to the roots ️

@pilleus Wow, its pretty! Whats behind the “Dive” section?

If I hadn’t bought the Vertical 2, this would definitely be the watch I would have bought.

[VoiGAS]

Unfortunately the Vertical 1 Titanium is smaller, same weight (with same strap), same depth rating, same features plus Solar. So I cannot justify the buy .
But I want that Watchface (MIP optimized, not like the Vector thing)

it has a lot more features. not just the solar

it has gps, accelerometer, HR, SpOx (ok neither works great) , applications, color display etc… I have no idea what the core 2 audience is but I would assume is a G-Shock type of

It’s basically a depth meter.
Which makes this ABC watch an ABCD watch

[pilleus]

Steps (synced to Suunto app and shown on the watch and in the app) are accurate, compared to a pedometer in the pocket.

Any chance of pictures with the red back light? I see it stated as feature but not pictures about it
