            I own the Vertical maybe for three months and except the two times I had sync issues (which for some reason isn’t there anymore) I am totally happy with the watch. I bought it like an adventure / trail running watch mainly and that’s the area where the watch excels for me. I know there are a few bugs and another areas where it could improve but none of it is critical for my day to day experience and the way I am using the watch. I can say that I am really happy I gave the Vertical a chance. I am looking forward for bugs to be fixed and new features which will come for sure. But at the same time I found out that there isn’t anything critical missing (the breadcrumb trail issue should be fixed of course and the sync issue needs to be sorted out).

                Even if 1st birthday is tomorrow, end of the first whole year of activities fully recorded SV is today.

                I wear it H24 since it was released. It’s a real pleasure, very reliable, nice to wear daily, efficient. The best Suunto’s I’ve ever had, of course !

                Here is what my SV has succefully helped to do last 366 days :

                  Love my SV Ti. Has been nearly flawless and overall my favorite Suunto watch so far! Haven’t checked actual stats but I know in the neighborhood of @1700 miles running/trail running for the past year any where from a mile to 50k. 365 days straight of use with only one issue that was fixed with the first software patch.

                    For the Suunto birthday; celebration with a guest.

                    Got to say I love the “resume” feature after the pause to take in some scenery. Started riding and felt my wrist buzz. “Oh yeah, I should start this activity again.”

                      I hope we will see many improvement updates for this watch. I had Suunto 9 Peak Pro, and after month got nice deal for refurb Vertical Solar. Changed, it looked like totaly brand new, except box and was so happy! I give my PP9 to my Mom since she used some smart-band before and she wanted change for something else me she enjoy her new Suunto! Love SV for incredible battery, I only hope Suunto will continue of software performance (much better after last update) and new things!

                            After six years with a Spartan Ultra, I finally decided to switch. I bought the SSU after its initial hiccups. It had originally been launched prematurely, but received many updates afterwards and became a very reliable watch. So much that I didn’t see any reason to update to any newer model. In fact, I think that for amateur running there isn’t so much more that a sportswatch must do. I ended up using manual laps for my workouts. Breadcrumb navigation also seemed enough. And battery life after all these years was still great.

                            Still, I thought I wouldn’t buy Suunto again: I remember endless discussions/requests to introduce e.g. structured workouts which had been present on the previous Ambit3 series or a sudden stop of updates to the Spartan series without any comments. I also didn’t see any convicing feature upgrades in the numbered models (e.g. Suunto 9 Baro/Peak/Pro). I thought I’d just use the watch as long as I could.

                            And then the new era began - much better batteries and offline maps. I started looking at what was available and thought about Garmin. Their maps are very good and you can also upload your custom maps. However, enthusiastic reviews upon the relase of the Vertical and Race made me think twice. In addition, I really liked SuuntoApp and didn’t feel like changing the environment.

                            Finally, I found a great deal for a new Suunto Vertical (Solar/Titanium), so I didn’t think too much and quickly ordered one. It’s been a month now and I’m very happy overall: maps are great, battery is fantastic. Even the oHR seems to be enough for my needs - I use a Polar H10 belt for all sport activities anyway. Just one negative point from my side: the bottom of the watch is too sharp for me: the lugs cause pain and I have visible marks on my skin. I have even seen is some reviewes a bleeding wrist of some cyclists. I ordered a Chinese strap for a couple of $$$ which has the standard 22mm mount, but is overall wider and covers the lugs and this seems to help. However, I miss the SSU in this regard. No discomfort whatsoever, even if it was slightly bigger/heavier.

                            strap.jpg

                            I also don’t get why some long-awaited and requested features that were once part of Suunto watches can’t be brought back - e.g. swim drills. There’s a fancy swim clock, but no way to record leg-only activities. Or the 15-routes limitation. Plus, some of the watch faces look like they were sketched by a 10-year-old child. And of course the missing ClimbPro-equivalent. However, my overall feeling in this regard didn’t change: I have zero expectations and just accept the watch as-is. Whatever positive future brings - will only make me happier. I would highly recommend the Vertical (or Race, depending on which screen type one wants) to those with older units thinking about an upgrade.

                                  Quite a long distance. Not bad. 👍

                                  But the Vertical seems to have real problems navigating from the start to the finish, as it navigates in all directions and takes far too many detours … 😂

                                      Happy birthday Vertical! Ordered the titanium model on launch day, got it a week after, used it a lot and still my favorite watch!

                                        I got Vertical Titanum since November 2023. You know when You get new gadget, tool or something You enjoy and look at it, but after some time it become normal thing. I still enjoy when I use SV when I look at it just like I would get it yesterday :D. You can count it as recommendation!:)

                                          I have the Vertical Titanium since launch. It’s still the most accurate sports watch I have ever owned with a battery that lasts forever*.

                                          *…Possibly exaggerated, but not by much.

                                            My Vertical’s battery lasts about 12 days with 24/7 HRM, sleep and SpO2 tracking. Is this normal battery life?
