Suunto Race 3S General Discussion
-
@fritzbt2013 same here, vibration is quite good and strong but the beeps is lower vs race S as you said. Well share if Support provides feedback.
SR3S
SRun (primarily road runner so testing SRun is a must ;)) -
« Off” setting of media player is not remembered…it has to be disabled every new activity…pretty annoying unless I missed something ?

@fritzbt2013 The Vertical 1 had the last really loud beep and vibration—it was just like the Nokia 3310 and it could wake the dead.
Then, when I had the Race and the Vertical 2, they were already much quieter and more subtle. So I think it’s more of a design decision. -

Yes, it is less loud.
Seems to be by design and not faulty units, as this is the same with all Race 3s. -

Correct. You are not missing anything. This is not nice.
One thing you can do at the moment:
Disable the media player in Settings -> Training.It will then stay off.
(Until you enable it in one sports mode. From there it will stay on again, until you disable it globally again…)t6, S6, Elementum Terra, Ambit 3 Sapphire, Spartan Ultra, Traverse Alpha, S7 Graphite LE, S9B Ambassador, S9P Titanium, S9PP Titanium, Vertical All Black, Race Titanium, Race S Titanium Courtney, Run Lime, Race 2, Vertical 2 Titanium, Race 3s

@Tieutieu yes this is quite annoying and not like the race 2

@Egika

edit : nope false joyce it doesn’t work, “default player” is selected and comes back even in parameters/playerok, then this has already changed with my test firmware.
I remember it always reset to on after opening any sport mode some weeks ago. This has already been extensively discussed with and acknowledged by Suunto. So up to then your only chance is to wait for a FW update… -
@Egika It seems to be a bug to me. Setting it off in general setting => when coming back it’s ON again
-
@Tieutieu I also think that it makes no sense to have it implemeneted like this.
I was trying to say, that this is known to Suunto engineers since mid October. -
Hello community, what am I doing wrong? I have the Race 3s and all notifications turned off! Yet, all notifications and calls still come through to the watch!!! What is the problem?
-
@GiPFELKiND the only thing you’re doing wrong is posting twice in different threads
-
Testing continues.
3 hours trail running this morning. 10% battery used, with those settings :- backlight to low (screen is really great, no visibility issue at all)
- turn to raise ON, display only
- touchscreen ON, map only
- following a route
- climb app ON
- gps on performance mode.
About gps accuracy, in comparison with my vertical I had used last year on the same race), it’s spot on almost all the way. When there are differences (in demanding sections under food and in steep terrain all around), I really can’t tell wich watch was more “right” than the other)
Using the crown : my first impressions are 100% confirmed => it’s way more usable than it was on the SRs. Good point
I have not done that much activities since I received my watch last Monday : 5h47 of activities.
To be notice : I have charged it Monday to load the maps, but half of France was loaded with the watch unplugged.
I have not charged it since then, I still have 17% battery remainingSo far with my settings, battery life is really above SRs and that’s great !

Sleep tracking keeps going the same way since I sleep with the SRs3 :
Almost 0 deep sleep now (7h average total sleep). I use to have a range of 1h to 2h30 deep sleep mesures the SRs. Nevertheless, sleep quality stays around 85% average like before. Strange I thought amount of deep sleep would affect more sleep quality score.
I have read that it as a new sleep algorithm tracking
Do you guys have the same behaviour ?Suunto’s devices at home :

@Tieutieu Good morning. My Race 3S tracks deep sleep well—that’s not an issue. However, what really stands out to me on the Race 3S is the “Resources” metric. It never shows any stress; regardless of what I do—cycling, exercising, etc.—it just drops in a perfectly linear fashion. Is it the same for you? By the afternoon, it’s always down to 10%. That wasn’t—and isn’t—the case with the Vertical 2 or my other watches.
-
@Tieutieu My sleep tracking is about the same as it was on the Race 2.
-
8 days later, time to recharge my SRs3 for the first time.
4% when I woke up but it suddenly dropped to 1%
On charge 50% back after 22min.
Less than an hour to reach 100% -
@Tieutieu That’s a lot faster charging time (compared to 9PP)
! good to hear ! -
@Elipsus But I would say same speed than my SRs
