Software Update 2.48.16 (2025 November Rain release)

[GiPFELKiND]

@segi_pn same bug here with Race 2 and Vertikal 2

[VoiGAS]

@segi_pn Didn’t notice before you mentioned it - but yes, also exists on Race S

[SuperFlo75]

@segi_pn I do not notice this behavior… but I notice the problem with HR belt connection and after one day of usage I think battery drain is still too much

[ChrisA]

@peegee no, the weather in the morning report was just there today

[OutdoorMan]

@segi_pn yes can confirm for Race 2 as well.

[ChrisA]

@Miguel-Angel-Moreno with the Race I? I have no battery problems with the Race I - charged 6 days ago and am at 35% with AOD, yet only 1-2h of GPS workout due to recovery from recent surgery

Update: just checked lost 2% during normal night (8 hours) with DND on, HR, HRV and sleep tracking on

[gone troppo]

Battery drain still occurring after update. What did they actually do with this update other than say battery drain is fixed??? Fail

[Tomas5]

@Stefan-Kersting so i can confirm for my Race 2:

Night Blood oxygen works
Manual measurement of Blood oxygen works
Morning report showed on second night (i missed first night), looks good.
Battery consumption in last 24h was 6% (comparable to firmware i got with watch). But i had DND for around 8h yesterday. Not sure how that impact battery comsuption.

So battery consumption was higher only in first few hours after update. But i will take notes for few more days just to be sure. But for my Race 2 it looks fixed.

[Josaiplu]

@Tomas5 yes my battery consumption is also in line with firmware that have no battery drain, only issue I got so far was a quick hr belt disconnect during a run, we’ll see today if unpair repair have solved the issue

[surfboomerang]

@segi_pn Tried to reproduce, but I don’t see the full black screen.
I have the outdoor watchface wait until the watch is idle for a minute. After that I press a button, but all that happens is that the backlight comes on and I see the next screen.

[inkognito]

@surfboomerang It doesn’t happen with all watchfaces. Try the K14 marine compass, Summit Seeker or Concentric analog…

[dani_degi]

@ChrisA

got the same. looking good on my race 2

[thailon]

New improved morning report is missing Fell asleep and Wake up time? Why?

[Durri]

After the update, when I set the watch to do not disturb and lock the buttons, the display lights up every time I move my hand🫣 The previous firmware worked correctly. It put the watch to sleep and the display only lit up when I pressed the button on the watch. Now I didn’t even sleep properly, the watch lit up like a Christmas tree🤨

[dani_degi]

@Josaiplu
my race 2 works good. battery 10% lost in 1 Day incl 1h run gps… and sleep tracking. ist ok ?

Suunto’s changelog N years later:
“Battery drain problem fixed”

Still draining, though

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@false users posts after any FW update:

• Battery drain

[norby]

The new sleep report is nice, but when I rewatch it from the menu it’s still the old style (sleep phases )

Suunto S

[Francesco Pagano]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I don’t want to start a new debate, but there have been several updates promising to fix this issue, and it seems that for most users on this forum nothing changed. If Suunto keeps releasing updates that seem to address mostly this major problem, and nothing changes, it’s a very big problem in terms of credibility.
I know it’s too early to judge; I’m waiting for my watch to discharge. So far the battery consumption has been…confusing.

[cheetah694]

@thailon My morning report had that information this morning.
