    @2b2bff I wrote about this before, but from my n=1 sample size, the Race 2 measures short, and is further from true distances than other watches from Suunto, COROS, and Garmin. I’ve measured it against a measuring wheel. Also, recent race performances by elites wearing the Race 2 in certified road races also have it measuring a bit shorter than race distances.

    There are several minimalist watchfaces and a few of them you can modify the complications. I like the K-14. [image: 1776647069428-a3708e93-699c-4c78-803a-9622bbf4ce37-image.png]

    My suunto vertical also experiences this extreme drain. You won’t get much out of this forum other than people posting to say how great their watch is. This is a an issue suunto no doubt know about but are in denial about or don’t know how to fix.

    @Audaxjoe Not a user, but in theory, the case could charge the buds 4x. Section 6.2 (page 14) https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0645/6488/7733/files/Suunto_Spark_EN_User_Guide_20260330.pdf?v=1775183859

    @isazi Do you know if there is a way to turn this feature off? (The vibrating if the watch comes in and out of range of the phone) I will try to pay attention to see if this seems to be the cause of the vibration on my watch. It still does it when in the vicinity of my phone.

    Today I did a run with a biceps band and the Vertical 2 titanium. Biceps, accurate readings. Maximum of 145bpm: [image: 1776639697484-biceps.jpg] Wrist sensor (Suunto Vertical 2). Today I used a nylon strap to ensure a better fit: [image: 1776639747016-v2.jpg] As you can see, the readings are completely wrong and stuck. The thing is I had this issue in the past with the Race 1. I’m a person with a trained heart and low bpm while resting. I have been using Garmin watches in many years and I don’t have this issue in Garmin. Coros is also working for me (but Amazfit not). Needless to say I know how to wear the watch. In my opinion, there’s something related to software since it’s very clear the watch is stuck from the very beginning. Considering the new sensor and the same issue I had in the past, I think algorythms are not clever enough when there’s noise because factors like sweat or the arm movement itself. I know the new sensor is working for many but I’m not the only one with exactly this issue, and in others everything just works (and as I posted before).

    @sindavide yes, I also experience it on the Race 1. The last beep, which should be longer, gets interrupted, therefore sometimes shorter or not even audible. By the way, having 11 beeps is weird to me, I’d prefer 9 short and one long.

    @sky-runner For me (Vertical 2 and Android) that is not the case. After the activity it’s available again. It can take like 10 seconds to appear black again, though

    @DrSilverthorn Wait until you try to sync two or more watches with the app. Then as you switch between watches, the one that was inactive keeps bringing the routes back, so it becomes very difficult to get rid of them. You have to remove a route from every watch to truly remove it; otherwise it keeps coming back. There has to be a “master” copy - a source of truth - and I think it has to be in the app or more exactly in the user account on cloud because routes can also be added via the route planner on the web or sync with 3rd party services like Strava or Komoot. Also to make it even more complex there can be multiple Suunto apps on multiple devices. Even if only one device can still, routes can still be changed on every device. Personally I edit routes on 3 devices - a phone, a tablet, and MacBook laptop running iOS Suunto App. But only the phone does sync with the watches. Someone at Suunto needs to sit down and analyze this in details and fix it once and for all. A decade ago I fixed a similar mess of bookmark synchronization in Chrome browser, so I know it can be done.

    Merged topics. If after watch restart the same map loads okay then we now identified one cause and it should be fixed in the next watch firmware update

    @Nikolai-Simonov version 1.0.13-ext (77) And a strange is that I don’t have a save button even if I fill it with a phone number [image: 1776601447433-screenshot_20260419_142243.jpg] [image: 1776601488328-screenshot_20260419_142438.jpg] When I use the return button, sometimes it saves the number filled, and sometimes not. I also tried to select a contact instead of fill it manually.

    @Thibault-B. I didn’t say nothing… I tried again this morning and it works fine. The app update may not have synced to the watch yesterday. Can’t wait to test it during my next training

    What are the main differences between this and the ‘Ghost runner’, are they essentially the same?

    3rd place in a miler is impressive! Hope your wife went well in her race? Great to hear the SV2 performed well

    @nseslija Same for me, by far the best sports/GPS watch I’ve ever owned - and I’ve owned plenty! Sure there’s been a few glitches and bugs but overall it’s one hell of a tool. It’s kept me on pace during my ultra’s and kept me safe and on track during many adventures in unknown territory I’ll have had it for 3 years next month, and the fact that over those 3 years it’s continually being worked on and improved is not lost on me. I’ve been part of this forum for years and this is just another nice extra… good job Suunto

    @2b2bff Interesting, that’s good to know and I might give the Coros HRM a try whenever the Polar decides to pack up. With it on my upper forearm it doesn’t bother me at all, if I’m wearing long sleeves it just sits underneath whatever I’m wearing

    @Olaf-Gottschalk As I wrote in your original post from 4 months ago, there’s a workaround without stopping the activity. After disconnect, switch to Tour battery performance in activity menu (long press bottom button), then switch it back to Performance. This disables and reenables watch’s Bluetooth and power meter reconnects to watch.
