Pretty impressed after first month.

@hatori_hanzo totally agree. I’ve just been getting into using zonesense and am really impressed with how well this works. Its really improved how I train. An extremely useful but relatively easy tool to use and backs up your point about presentation and simplification of relevant information. No digging around, its just there and works. Love this feature of suunto.

How is the size of the Race 2 compared to the Fenix 7?
-
@2b2bff I can only say for Race 1, but I think Race 2 is the same in size.
Compared to fenix, they’re about the same even though fenix is 47 mm and race is 49 mm in width. They feel kind of the same. I think it’s the bezel size and pins that hold the wrist belt. On Race they are a bit steeper, so the whole size looks a bit more compact, and on the other hand Fenix is more spread out, so it feels a bit larger. -
@2b2bff I have both and the Race 2 is a monster screen compared to the Fenix 7 Pro. 1.5 seems to dwarf the 1.3. Fenix’s seem to have a lot of metal and fluff outside the display where the Suunto is more of a display first display on the wrist. When I have the Suunto on my wrist it feels like an instrument vs the Garmin feels like a fashiony display. Just my opinion.

@Stavrogin I have a Race S and an Epix Pro 47mm here. I think the Epix is a tad too large for me, but bearable. I wonder how the Race 2 would feel…
-
@2b2bff I think it would be too large in that case. The Fenix 7 pro (47mm) and the Race S feel similar even though there are all those metal bits around the Fenix screen. The Race 2 will seem really really big because it is all display.
When I first put on the Race 2 and the Vertical 2 they seemed comically big due to the 1.5 screen. It felt bigger than a 51mm Fenix/Epix because of the still larger screen.
The Race S is a great compact running watch that does great on the trails and on the street for me running.
-
@Stavrogin I don’t know whether I would call the Race S and Epix Pro 47mm similar. The Race S is physically smaller and slimmer. But I guess you are correct that the Race 2 would be too large for me…
-
@2b2bff From the pictures above there is a good chance that the Race 2 will hang off the sides of your wrist. It looks like the Epix is hanging off a bit.

Race S lug to lug distance is 48mm. Can someone measure the lug to lug on Race 2 and Fenix/Epix Pro 47mm?

Epix Pro 47mm is 55mm…

Maybe a tad, but I think that is more the perspective of the wide angle of phone cameras nowadays. The Race S sits better, though…

@2b2bff Thank you
