Race 3S & Race 3 rumours
-
I guess that I can answer some questions this morning as I have some time. I have been testing the Race 3S for a while now, before summer if I am not mistaken.
-
@matram I am sure there will be, if not from Suunto, from third-party reviewers. What is important is that the feedback of Race 3S users will shape this functionality that for now (and for them) it is in beta and free.
-
@isazi Hopefully there is a button to switch this off.

@jthomi I have not found it

@isazi
A few questions from my side if you have time to comment.- I found that the weak “memory” in the AI may cause it to overreact to the “here and now” situation loosing track of a longer term plan
- Poor detection of the onset of overtraining - AI keeps pushing
- AI focuses too much on things like VO2max or LT2 and does not factor in the bigger picture, e.g. poor running economy or heavy loads from other activities like gym training
This is a mixture of my experiences with Claude and with Garmin. I would be interested to hear your impressions.
-
@matram in my interactions with the AI Suunto Coach it was reasonable, but the feature I liked the most is the route creation based on a natural language user request (such as “create me a route of 40k for a bike ride”). I am not an AI enthusiast, just a person that experiments with it a bit.

The Race S was the watch I always recommended to people asking for recommendations, Race 3S has better material, updated hardware, and a crazy good OHR. It costs more than the original 3S, unfortunately, but it is probably what I would recommend right now.

I isazi moved this topic from Lets talk about Watches

500€, inline with the competition and todays “market value”, but ouch !
-
Hopefully the comparison charts are a little off like always…

-
@aiv4r Some questions remain -
Will there be a non-titanium version?
How much will the Race 3 be?
Will the Race 2 and Vertical get the same updates given they run on the same chip (Apollo 510) albeit with less storage
Will they reduce the Race 2 further?Only Sapphire Titanium

Race 2 and Vertical 2 will receive most of the new features as long as hardware supports it.
Plus they will all receive bigger things later

I’m looking at the reviews, and right now my first impression is pretty mixed. I’m not quite sure what to make of it yet. But a lot of that is because I’m not the target customer.
-
@martintrail can you explain what you mean?
