So Difference between Race 2 and Vertical 2 = Flashlight and Digital Crown
-
Is there any other differences or is that it?
-
@Desdinova flashlight, buttons instead of crown, larger battery, design I believe
Watch: Suunto Vertical Ti

@isazi Just seems a small amount of differences to warrant a different name. If MIP is truly dead, then this is really only a Race 2 without a crown and a flashlight really. If larger battery is a thing, it just sits above the Race 2 like the Race S sits below the Race.
Just seems a little odd there’s little product differentiation here.

Because it is cheapest for the manufacturer.

I like Race 2 design more. I was thinking the crown doesn’t make sense, but I like it. I don’t like to use a touch screen on a watch; basically, I prefer not to use it at all, and scrolling with the crown is convenient.

@Desdinova Race Pro

@Badmo than we need Race Pro Max and Race Air too

I am really happy that it is (for me) disappointing and expensive. So I don’t need to buy a new watch.
If the Vertical 2 would have been a Vertical1 + Suunto Run features + better OHR + dive functions (like fenix) I could not resist… -
@VoiGAS haha, I thought the same but have just ordered the V2… I will have a good look at it against the V1. Like you say the difference doesn’t look great!

@Audaxjoe Normally I react the same way - the GAS in my username stands for Gear Aquisition Syndrome
