Software Update 2.43.8/.12 (2025 Q2)

@Pavlas Thanks for comparison.
I mostly use 100m zoom (for trail running) and 200m (for cylcing).
at 100m expecially, I find the new layer easier to follow. Small tracks are more visible.

This is the combined chart of power data from Stryd’s (magenta) vs Race-S’s (blue) fit files. About 5 dropouts over 66 minutes. Sometimes none, sometimes more. Other than these and the sight offset due to different start times, the data points matched nicely.

@Tieutieu Yes, the new maps are a bit better in the open. But there are also 2 kinds of paths. Short dashes and long dashes. My comparisons are just the paths that are marked with short commas, and those aren’t very nice. In the city, it makes it look very cluttered. It would be good to find a compromise.

@Pavlas Just to add: after removing the paths from the 500m view, the map in the mountains looks like this:

I wonder who at Suunto came up with such a brilliant idea.

Now, not only are there no contour lines, but there are also no paths or trails.
Thank you Suunto Team.

Pavlas

@maszop Yeah, that’s bad too.

Is there a way to reinstall the software on the Suunto vertical?

@Max-maxilifeguard If you’re talking about installing an FW,

Go to Settings > General > About

Scroll down to the bottom.

Hold down the bottom button on your watch.

Debug mode will appear.

Here, you’ll see the FWs in the “Select OTA Packet” section.

Remember, your watch’s battery should be at least 50%.

@safari thanks, but the problem is the watch is lock, i can’t unlock to used. I wonder is its possible to do it from the app

@Max-maxilifeguard there is no other way to recover a bricked watch than sending it to the Repair center. Mine got flashed and sent back to me within 48 hours. Good luck with your device!

safari

@Max-maxilifeguard In this case, the repair center…

Thank you Suunto Team.

And as I mentioned earlier in this thread it is even worse when using imperial units because everything disappears at 0.2 mile scale, which is just 320 meters.

And at 500 ft (150m) scale trails are so thin on Race and Race S that they are almost invisible to my aging eyes unless I stop and steady the watch. With this change, maps are no longer useful to me.

Can you see the trail going down from the center of the screen on the picture above? I usually can’t. And it is even worse on a smaller Race S screen.

@sky-runner hey @sky-runner you can downgrade
