- the lag in maps! With F7 the lag before the map actually turns is really annoying and sometimes I have to wait or do some steps in one direction and then go back if I am on the wrong path, based on the reviews the Vertical is smooth and fast in this regard!
This aspect has not gotten enough love yet: The Vertical maps turn and scroll super smooth and instantly!!
On this video from nakan at 3’15 there is nice comparison with epix 2 illustrating perfecly the smoothness of suunto’s map integration !

Quite a minor detail, but will the vertical come in that awesome black box we saw on the teasing traillers or not at all?
This one?
Nope this one
-
@André-Faria That is not a box for us mere mortals .

Pity, would be cool for the ones that pre ordered.

Ho appena ordinato il Vertical Black Lime…

@Hristijan-Petreski it is very individual. I also mainly train running and the inability to pair 2 different HR accessories is probably(?) at the top of my list of complaints when it comes to Suunto watches. I hope they will correct this soon.
-
@aroo7 I am sorry for asking and trying to understand. How will you use the data coming from 2 different HRs? So what will be the HR reported by the watch? The 1st or the 2nd HR source? Or are you just referring to have it in the list of HRs and not need to go through the re-paring process?
Suunto watches: Ocean (Sand), Race (Titanium Charcoal), Vertical (Titanium Solar Sand), 9 Baro (Ambassador Edition), Spartan Ultra (Copper Edition), Ambit 2, S6

@Egika Very nice selection of colors.

@Hristijan-Petreski I can tell you for cycling. Power meter from indoor trainer and power meter from pedals/crank/hub. Not simultaneously of course, but one rainy day you cycle indoors and next day you go out. Pairing all the time, unnecessary if you ask me (as DC rainmaker said, we are not in 90’s
) Or maybe you have two HR monitors (Suunto for swimming and H10 for other - because of ANT+, recording zwift + watch). -
@Likarnik Yes sure, I agree it can be improved but I tried to understand if someone really uses (or even supports) 2 same type sensors simultaneously.
-
@isazi Will we get a score or will we get the details of the HRV test or both?
-
@Hristijan-Petreski I think this is not the question, I’m not sure how to use two HR belts simultaneously? Which one has priority and so on. This is a question of having more than one sensor and no need to pair it every time (btw, when you pair speed/cadence sensor you are also asked for wheel circumference, it can be quite annoying).
-
@Likarnik Yup got it. Thnx.
-
@Frederick-Rochette I guess in the next few weeks we’ll find out. According to the mock-ups from past surveys, there was just a number I think. Although who knows what Suunto’s up to these days haha

As someone who has various bikes, you can have different power meters, and as hr strap I have one at work and one at home .
Since it has been so long that Suunto didn’t change this, what I understand is they don’t want to target to this type of public/user. -
@Hristijan-Petreski why would you connect 2 hr straps at the same time? The logic is that if you have more than 1 he strap, you don’t always have to keep unpairing-repairing ones you want to use.

Well, there is a sport called horseback riding.
One HR belt for rider, one HR belt for horse…

@altcmd well I ride a Tandem bicycle with my girlfriend, I’ve thought it would be good to keep an eye on her HR while we’re riding (as well as mine) to make sure she’s also doing her part
so two belts at once would make sense!Suunto 9 Baro black

@jakubdr I have done most of R2R2R in the Grand Canyon with the Vertical and a couple of races as well as long SkiMo days. I live in Colorado where there is a lot of sun. The battery life for me often exceeds the life Suunto claims. With maps on a significant amount of time I get at least the claimed battery life.
As you noted with Garmin, the battery life is severely affected by maps. I did not know this and had an Epix2 for 8 or 9 months before I sold it. To get their claimed battery life you could not use maps. You will be pleased with the battery, I have a hard time believing the battery estimates I am getting.
