Suunto Race S general discussion

@suuntastic More picture comparisons please!

@FrkBZH35 If you want Garmin features you should purchase a Garmin. Suunto≠Garmin and Suunto does not want to equal Garmin. For exercise on multi-band GPS Garmin battery life is much, much worse as RaceS is 30h on mulitband with maps and routes! OHR is not an accurate method for measuring HR on any device either Apple, Garmin, Coros or Suunto. A belt provides much more accurate data as is seen from the new ZoneSense release from Suunto.
The functions that Garmin has and Suunto does not are not wanted by many of us. Suunto’s approach to training is far, far better than Garmin IMHO as CTL, TSB and ATL are used by the vast majority of athletes in Endurance sports. Suunto allows the user to interpret data for training rather than saying your body battery is low. I know when I don’t sleep well.
Not to be antagonistic but providing a different point of view. There are features I want to have on Suunto watches that are missing but those features are not necessarily on Garmin, Apple or Coros. -
@Brad_Olwin
Just to clarify, 13% less battery on my 01:37 bike ride…we are far from 30 hours announced. -
@FrkBZH35 if you’re worried about battery
, you’re on the wrong Suunto watch 
, but I get your point. -
@FrkBZH35 My battery consumption today with HR chest strap for a 2 hour MTB ride was 12% with always on display. In my experience, with the display set to ‘Raise to wake’, the consumption would have been roughly half of it, which more or less matches Suunto’s promise.

@obhikkhu I wasn’t complaining but merely replying to a previous post of someone stating their findings of the battery life during a bike ride. My battery consumption during exercise is roughly what I stated whether I perform a soft reset or not (been there, done that…).
-
@obhikkhu That is to say?
The watch that bugs and does it by itself?
Or is it up to us to do it after each use? (If that’s it, sorry but a joke

Hi! I have realized lately that the watch registers my naps (on the picture those little orange dots on monday, thursday, friday). But they won’t sync to the app anymore (sometimes like last sundays long nap it also synced to app). I’ve read from reddit that somebody else also having this problem about for one month now. Tried to sync many times, tried to power off and on the watch. Anybody else having the same, any suggestions how it could be fixed or is it a software problem?

In my case tje watch register all nights the sleeping as a nap, always are nap. So every morning it says 0:00h of sleeping. And it says 7:00h of NAP
In consequence my HRV is not working simce day one cos al my sleeping watch is registering as map
Lot of work to do in this watch/software man
-
@dmcdmc Have you setup an auto-dnd time period for the times you are usually likely to be asleep?
-
Yes, i have tried everything read in every post of the forum, also speaked with asistance and done a soft reset, nothing changed ) the only thing that I have not done is a hard reset.
Nothing of all tried changed ,my sleep is always registered as nap, so hrv is not working for this consequence
Thanks gor the input far-blue

Hi everyone, how do you create a training plan in the suunto race S in order to prepare for a specific race ? (E.g: 21km on the 8th of december). I heard it s common on Garmin and that s the only thing I really miss on this watch. Thank you !

@wakarimasen do not have more. S9P already sold…
-
Could anyone recommend a good glass protection for this watch? I would be grateful for help.
-
@Ars-Vitae I’m using a glass protector for Fenix 7, it fits well.
-
I’m using this one. Fits perfekt, invisible:

@Reiner No problem with touch response?

No, response is normal.
