Suunto Run + New Strap
-
Does anybody have any information regarding battery life with music playing?
I guess battery life in technical specifications is without music playing.
Training: All-Systems GNSS mode + Multi-Band:
- without music playing: up to 20h
- with music playing: up to xx h
Training: All-Systems GNSS mode + Single-Band:
- without music playing: up to 30h
- with music playing: up to xx h
Thanks a lot

No access to SuuntoPlus, so it’s impossible to transfer workouts from a training platform like TrainingPeaks — is that correct?
-
@Cédric correct. You would have to rebuild them in the Suunto App
-
@Egika Unbelievable — how is that even possible in 2025

@cosme.costa my guess is that, one day, if everything works out, new watches will be based on the new platform (having one platform is more cost effective), but I do not think that time is now, or even 2025.
The “new platform” here seems like a “branch” of the OS on Race / Race S / Vertical, yes? Widgets like weather, heart rate, sunrise/sunset, etc. look identical and I can’t imagine these were coded “from scratch” without any institutional knowledge of the previous OS?
I assume there’s a version number for the Run’s OS — do we know what that is? I’d be surprised if it was something like Suunto Rebirth 1.0 but maybe that’s what they did.
-
I understand that Suunto Climb Guidance is NOT available (at least initially) in this new Run, right?
Suunto 9 Peak Pro (all black version)
-
@Cédric. Absolutely. And even more so for a device that is supposed to be specifically for running.
-
@Cédric but that may be coming (I have guides on the FT firmware and app)
-
@isazi Let’s hope so, otherwise future buyers might end up very disappointed.

@Sascha-Domres I don’t believe that the Ocean is Suunto’s flagship watch.
It used to be the Ambit Peak, the Suunto 9 Baro, etc., but since the 2023 production line, each model (Ocean , Vertical, Race , Run ) serves a different purpose.
I think there isn’t one that is better than all the others. They are all excellent at exactly what they are designed to do and fitted in every demand/budget of users.
(Just my perspective)Ocean - hybrid use Dive and multi sport
Vertical - rugged for extended outdoor endurance sports
Race - faster menu browsing when racing and “better” compact fit
Run - running simplest easier useI like a lot this strategy and categories of Suunto!

I think we can look at this by how Suunto organizes their lineup. On Suunto’s USA site (if different elsewhere, I’m curious to know!), the models are organized like this:
Sports & Training
- Suunto Run ($249, last week, this first position was Suunto 9 Peak Pro)
- Suunto Race S (starting at $349)
- Suunto Race (starting at $399)
Adventure
- Suunto Vertical (starting at $499)
Outdoor Essentials
- Suunto Core ($219)
Dive
- Suunto Ocean ($899)
I can see the argument that Ocean may be considered the flagship based on price; however, that may just be a consequence of its specific functionality and possibly less overall popularity. One might consider the Vertical the flagship again, if it meets a combination of “highest price and quality” along with having a wider audience than the Ocean; I have no idea how much either sells.
On the other hand, perhaps the “flagship” here is the Race, as the most expensive watch in the category with the most models? I’m not sure how much the word flagship really means or what it should represent.
I do see Run, Race S, Race as ideally being almost a “good, better, best” lineup, although really Race and Race S are the same tier as it’s mostly just a size difference (and yes, the optical sensor, but in an ideal world these would have been the same, I’d expect a future “Race 2” series to be the same if two models were released concurrently). This is coloring some of my expectations; for example, in the Garmin world, if one compares the Forerunner 165 with the 265, are there features on the 165 not on the 265? I may be wrong but I don’t recall that. So with the Run / Race situation, viewed as a Venn diagram of features, you don’t have a clear “subset / superset” situation but instead a common middle area with both products having features the other one does not.

Run is ok, but for me the most important question. What color “Run” strap to the Vertical Ti?
Vertical Titanium Solar

I’m still trying to figure out if “Coral Orange” is actually red? And “Lime” is yellow, not green, right?
-
@raven lime is yellow, I’ve got that one

Wouldn’t lemon be a better name then?
Thanks for clarification!

Im aiming for Coral Orange since my Vertical x Mammut is a bit used. Was thinking about black one too. Lime not bad, Frost Gray is meh…

Okay, I answer myself.
Confirmed: Suunto Climb Guidance is NOT available (at least initially) in this new Run.

Didn’t found it anywhere but, if this watch with the new OS does not support SUUNTO+ apps, how will be ZoneSense implemented? Or this will be discontinued in the future because minority of users are able to use it with some constancy? For me it works better than in the past but I still have a lot of doubts. What you think?
-
@AntoniusGaius ZoneSense is computed in the app after the workout, so it still works, for real-time it’ll probably come to Run at some point, and I think also for older watches it’ll be possible to have it natively without the S+ app
Watch: Suunto Vertical Ti

@Tami999 I will go for the coral and the black one. I have read in one review that the straps will cost 29€ each.
