Suunto Race S general discussion
-
@taziden Suunto is not commenting on this at the moment, as far as I know.
-
Designed and made in Finland! Nice.
-
When will it be available to order?
-
Ray is a fan: https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2024/06/suunto-race-s-in-depth-review-smaller-cheaper.html (although maybe review thread worthy)
-
Now THAT is a fantastic watch face!
Fingers crossed we can get it in SR/SV/9PP too
-
So in fact, from the comparison on the Suunto Hompage, it is “just” a small Race. Of course with lower Battery capacity and smaller screen.
But all the other functions are the same as on the Race?
Which hardware is different from Vertical / Race? HR, GPS, Bluetooth?
-
I think Suunto is going to sell A LOT of these. Well done! I know I will be buying one for my wife. Hopefully the supply can keep up with demand!
-
@Stoke80 HR sensor is different (1 light, 4 detectors).
-
Any comments on whether or not Structured workout functionality has been updated for out of zone alerts?
Oh and judging by YT comments, a lock button in normal time?
-
Suunto Climb Guidance

@The_77 yes, there is a lock button (if you want, can be customized) in time mode. Will be there also for Vertical and Race soon.
Edit: also S9PP.
-
@EzioAuditore Are we 100 % sure ?! If so, great news ! But strange that the SR would be produced in China and the SRs in Finland !
-
@Tieutieu the watch I have is made in Finland.
-
@isazi that’s a very good news to me. At this range price, the RACE S is a very very serious competitor on the market !
Also I like the design much more than the SR. If I had no watch at this time or had to change, I would certainly consider it ! and if a TI version comes out someday…that would be the perfect watch in this size range !
To be noticed : “gorilla glass”, instead of saphire on the SR. What differences between both ?
Now, waiting for FW update !!
-
@Tieutieu Ray says EU and Americas will be made in Finland, Asian in China.
-
@EzioAuditore makes sense also for distribution.
-
How cool is the pause screen. Yey I am now patiently waiting for the FW on both my SV and Race. Oh and when the multi BT sensors are added with some AI coach guidances that generates trainings for you… it will be top notch.
Very nice and good job Suunto devs/testers/designers and all. -
Hello & thanks for your revelations.
Per DCR: “Increased map zoom level up to 20km (from 2KM)”
Do we get contour lines above 200m zoom?
-
@EzioAuditore pause screen is very nice, there is quite some work going on the interface to make it snappier and more user friendly.
-
@Fenr1r unfortunately, at this point what I see is that there is 20km zoom but contour lines are still limited. I hope this will also improve.
