@Egika I don’t see it on the website: are these devices made in finland?

[dulko79]

the5runner has a short overview on the accuracy.

@Egika very sexy! Thought I will be the Vertical on Christmas… Now it is the Race

[Stefan Kersting]

Somebody who can explain me the point with the new watch? SV is nearly twice the price and the race has just AMOLED? Tried to find a page where I can compare both watches men could not find it.

@Stefan-Kersting I am sure very soon there will be a dedicated RACE subforum created by the moderators.
In short:
RACE has an AMOLED display and the digital crown as distinctive features.
VERTICAL has the absolutely longest battery life and the solar option - plus it is made in Finland with all renewable energy.

Both will have HRV and recovery features as well as new training data.

I am absolutely in love with the race after wearing it next to Vertical for some weeks now.

@Stefan-Kersting I think no solar, battery life much less, and not Made in Finland?

[Stefan Kersting]

@SuperFlo75 made in China?

I don’t see dual band on the new Race. No solar. Less battery life due to amoled screen (more than 50% less if we compare the best GPS setting of the Vertical with no dual band, to the best mode of the race).
But indeed not that it seems there is not that much differences
I would bet this is the first step to amoled for suunto.

[Stefan Kersting]

@Egika so when getting the update on SV it is just the AMOLED that is the difference?

[Lechamoix]

Source DC Rainmaker.

Difference with SV …

[Stefan Kersting]

@Lechamoix but naps will we get with the FW update?

[Lechamoix]

@Stefan-Kersting Good Question … The same for the race prediction

[vlado]

I don’t see any option for Preorder…

[Ketoohs]

@Lechamoix So the non solar Vertical will have less features than Race, no Amoled screen and better battery life for 150€ more… I do not understand the logic, and as a Vertical owner I am confused and disappointed.

[suuntastic]

@Tieutieu think Race has dual band

@Stefan-Kersting it’s unfortunate. It seems like with the S7 as well, they couldn’t produce AMOLED watches in Finland.
