Race S2 -> release?

Run 2
Successor to Race S - closer to the Race 3 than the Race 2.
Race 3 (later)

But who knows…

@aiv4r as said in other forums and before the end of the year. Very likely (NOT official confirmation), the pending watches are:

Run 2

Race 2 S (name to be confirmed). Mix between V2 and R2 in small form factor?

Ocean 2

Everything is speculation for now.

I do not think this makes sense. Why would you release Run 2 and Race 2S. I would definately go for Run 2.
I am not sure id Ocean needs upgrades for now. So my vote would be for 1 out of 3 is possible.

Just my opinion.

Race 2 S - for me is probably next possible watch. From what I’ve seen in real life, on forums, reddit etc. its most entry-level recommended watch. Its my bet it will be next, probably after summer ???

Run 2 - I have no idea why they would do that. With maps it will become Race S. Better OHR sensor? Better hardware only? No idea.

Ocean 2 - Iam not sure (iam not into diving) how popular are hybrids of sport-dive watches. I think its niche (of course I mean not as popular as regular sport watches/smartwatches) and Iam not sure how often Suunto would release these type of watches. I think as company they gonna aim for more popular audience instead of releasing new Ocean every 2 years.
I may be wrong, dont want to be ignorant or insult anyone. Also I would just aim for Ocean 2 in 2 years or something. Plus remember we have just nautic computers.

Probably Race 2 ,S" will be soon (high demand), and Race 3 / Vertical 3 next year. Maybe something new between that… like new Chest Strap?

@dreamer_ If I had to speculate, I’d bet on a new watch in a completely new series. It would be similar to the Run, but with many more smartwatch features—like NFC payments and so on—to target a different type of user who only occasionally does sports and prefers a smartwatch feel.
It would be somewhat similar to the Suunto 7

@Tami999 everything is just speculation of anonymous users at forums. People is really expecting the “Race 2 S”

About the Run 2 I disagree. There’s room for an improved version with more S+ support, better charger, better screen, new HR sensor, better battery life and breadcrumb navigation. With only those things you have a very interesting evolution.
Or perhaps the “Race 2 S” has a physical flashlight or a bigger/better screen (1.4 inches fits), charger, HR sensor…+ everything the Race S has and the Run not, …who knows. I also heard what @2b2bff said in his last post (everything is speculation)

If we look at other brands (I.E Coros) they also have things like the Pace 4 and Pace Pro (there is also an speculation about the Pace Pro 2 very soon and the Pace 4 is very new yet)

Iam interested. Current one is already long on market if I am not wrong. Wonder what new would eventually bring.

@Tami999 if there is a new hr belt, could it have some improvements for zonesense? Maybe more accurate R-R data or something?
I hope they could make the strap a bit more durable.

@Tami999 Running dynamics would also be great, a LED indicator and maybe a diving related feature for Ocean/Nautic. Improved Dive track with the additional sensors from Running dynamics maybe? Plus the better quality for Zonesense and ECG

A lot of things are possible
