      I would not wait for an announcement during the UTMB.
      I don’t see the point of having a stand with the entire current range exposed to the public and making an announcement the next day.

      For me the Run 2 will be available in September and Race (s) 3 on October.

            @Tami999 No MIPS again… Garmin releases with the new Fenix 9 Pro again 2 models with MIPS. hoped for this step too with the release from the new Suunto models. Why didnt suunto do this step, too!? I think many Outdoor enthusiasts would choose a new MIPS watch from suunto.

            If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you. #lifewithasthma #runwithasthma #nevergiveup #pushinglimits #adventurestartshere Suunto Ambit 3 Peak , D9, Vertical Ti, Race , RaceS Courtney, Race 2, Vertical 2, SA (Beta) Android Insta: @gipfelkind

                Most likely: because many on internet are very few on sales to pay off development, certification, support etc etc etc
                Garmin has other size for sure .

                  Not necessarily. I am a core user for Suunto watches (trail ultramarathon runner), and I specifically looked for a watch with high contrast AMOLED display. It works better for my needs and it has a battery life for most grueling ultramarathons.

                  MIP has some disadvantages compared to AMOLED - lower resolution, lower contrast, more thickness, which results in a bulkier watch. Plus, there are no round MIP displays in existence that are larger than 1.4" as far as I know.

                  Suunto: Ambit, Ambit 3 Peak, 9 Baro, Race S, Race Ti, Vertical 2 Ti
                  Garmin: Forerunner 210, Forerunner 610, Fenix 6X, Fenix 7X Ti

                    @sky-runner the low resolution bothers me too, otherwise I would opt for one too.

                    Coros apex 4 46mm also only delivers 260x260 resolution

                      Personally I like their performance metrics and software and incremental improvements will be welcomed.

                      I think what I’m hoping for is better Race 3/3S design. Other competitors have clean modern designs like the Oppo Watch X3, Amazfit T-Rex range and Huawei GT line. Feeling elegant while performance focussed would be a win-win.

                        About design I actually don’t worry, Suunto got most beautiful sports watch 😁. I only wonder what new will Race 3 have since Race 2 was released year ago. Heard rumors only about AI Coach with subscription which completely don’t interest me, but if there will be more changes, especially big ones I’ll consider change.

                          @Tami999 while I honestly don’t know details about this AI coach thing, I still wonder how such a thing as a paid subscription could be part of a single watch firmware and not just hook onto the platform (aka Suunto App)…
