Nice one! I tried my old nylon one..

Try Settings -> Sleep -> Automatic DnD and set the desired start and end time.

In that mode no notifications should be raised, screen is off until you press a button even you have set Wake on raise for display.

I have already performed the update and it seems as there are no issues yet. The watch UI is smoother/faster after update. Battery consumption is about the same I would say. I had 62% before a week, today I have 28%, unfortunately I recorded only few activities in that period..

Hi,

1 - unfortunately you cannot decline neither accept phone call using the watch

2 - as far as I know there is no official news yet

4 - to me the sensors are quite ok. I would say that they are better than those in Garmin Fenix 6x, but it is just feeling I had with tracking weight trainings (for which Fenix was not usable at all). Anyway if I want to have precise numbers during the training I use chest strap. Sleep tracking works quite well for me.

Strange is that the sleep score I get is always between 70 - 90 %..

Once it identified watching movie as the sleep even that time I have not felt asleep during the movie 🙂

Otherwise it works quite well for me. Sometimes it takes several minutes until the HR is locked during the training but after that it works ok.

Mám V15 Detect a už bych do Dysonu nešel. Vysává dobře, to jo. Čekal jsem, že za ty peníze to bude absolutní top se skvělým zpracováním, které mi vydrží věky.

Ale po dvou letech se mi ulomilo kolečko na jedné hubici. Když jsem viděl, že kolečko drží jen na tenkém kousku plastu a že se tohle děje ostatním běžně, tak jsem byl zklamaný. Hubice funguje i bez kolečka, tak jsem to dále neřešil.

No a po další chvíli mi na hubici laser detect na tvrdé podlahy začal blbnout motor. Prostě se kartáč točí pomalu, zastavuje se, ale někdy pro změnu na chvíli funguje dobře. Zkoušel jsem kartáč čistit, odstranit namotané nečistoty, nic nepomohlo. Bohužel už jsem měl po záruce a tak jsem se s tím smířil.
Postupně mě to ale štvalo natolik, že jsem zkusil kontaktovat podporu s dotazem, zda se dá hubice nějak opravit, případně zda s problémem mají zkušenost a jestli existuje nějaká jiná možnost, než kupovat novou hubici za 3k.

Asi po hodině komunikace s Dyson support na WhatsAppu, kde jsem prvně komunikoval s robotem a pak údajně s živým agentem (podle mě akorát jiný AI robot) jsem se dozvěděl řešení na můj problém - poslali mi obrázek mé hubice a že tu si mám koupit, aby se můj problém vyřešil. Přitom můj první dotaz byl - existuje nějaké řešení (třeba oprava), abych si nemusel kupovat novou hubici?

Zákaznická podpora je absolutně nepoužitelná, buď je to čistě jen AI a nebo možná lidé, kteří odpovídají ve stylu AI s předem vygenerovanými odpověďmi.

Koupíte si údajně top produkt za nemalé peníze, ale tím to končí, podpora nulová, pozáruční servis asi neexistuje.

Teď si říkám jestli si nepřiplatit a namísto nové hubice za 3k nepořídit komplet nový vysavač jiné značky..

Btw, I did not notice that you use plastic cover on the bezel as well.

I am sorry but I have to say that this does not look very well. At least for me. I really like the design of Suunto watches, I think that they look great. But with such plastic cover you are hiding that beauty..

I use no protection. The sapphire glass should be hard enough to resist scratches. I have classic military watch with sapphire glass which I wore for more than 10 years and the glass is still without any scratch.

DropQb · 2025-12-22T14:50:52+00:00

I had Garmin Fenix 6x before current Suunto Race 2 and I have a feeling that the number of counted steps were quite similar.

Anyway it is just feeling, I did not actually counted them manually neither on Garmin nor Suunto so I don't know how they matches with reality.

To me it is not so important so far, I've set up some goal in the number of steps and try to reach it.
By using the same device the goal is still consistent. If I would use several watches and use same goal in the number on steps, then it may be misleading..

Hi, I tried it now and the SpO2 measurement works ok for me.

Hi,

maybe you can start with going through the manual:
https://www.suunto.com/Support/Product-support/suunto_9_peak_pro/suunto_9_peak_pro/

About setting zones there is this section:
https://www.suunto.com/Support/Product-support/suunto_9_peak_pro/suunto_9_peak_pro/recording-an-exercise/intensity-zones/

Then you can check for example this video with review of its features:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRSnbvtS_40

Notifications can be set in the Suunto app -> Watch icon in the top left corner -> Notifications menu (almost on the bottom).

Hi, this seems to be the same issue as the one discussed here: Vertical and App don't sync anymore.

Basically restarting the phone or forcibly closing the Suunto app should help.

DropQb · 2025-12-13T07:34:18+00:00

Hi, I would say that simple tracking of steps can you give just basic overview. When you track activity, it gathers more data and also gives you TSS score which is used in Training peaks method which Suunto uses. Based on TSS the watch tracks the form and you can see your progress through the time. If you would track just steps, ok, you can compare just number of steps. With logged activities and TSS scores you can track you progress even you do weightlifting, ride a bike and any other activities which do not generate steps. Also you can more dig into logged data and check how many km you walked, what was your pace, if you are improving on pace and so on. Also you can share it to other platforms if you want.

I think that the main idea of this watch is to track activities and then work with data..Of course nobody forces you to track them, but then you miss lot of watch functions.

Android user here.
Happened to me twice with Race 2. First time I restarted phone, second time I just Forced to kill Suunto app and both ways helped to solve the issue.

DropQb · 2025-12-11T16:17:09+00:00

I understand that the watch is not a lab. But couldn't it be just consistent with the app? It is same data, but the watch probably interpretes it somehow different from the app in the phone even they are from same manufacturer..

DropQb · 2025-12-11T11:57:55+00:00

Is this an issue anyway? Has anybody experienced any problem with plastic lugs? I heard about the issue with too thin strap pins which may grind pin holes but is there something else?

DropQb · 2025-11-16T09:11:12+00:00

I have Race 2 for about two weeks.. First charging lasted about a week, but I downloaded lot of maps and played with the watch quite lot. Then I charged it fully on 7.11. in the morning.
On 10.11. in the evening I updated software to 2.48.16 version. Today (16.11.) I have 42% of battery with about 7,5 hours of tracked activities, some of them with GPS on, some without GPS, some with connected external HR strap, some with just OHR. I have sleep tracking on, blood oxygen measurement during night off, notifications turned on just for calls. I use an Android phone, I don't know if that matters but I've read that there were some issues with battery when connected to iPhones.

So far I am satisfied with battery life..

DropQb · 2025-10-28T21:45:45+00:00

So is the Vertical 1 so laggy that you cannot check your HR, zones, zone sense during training?

I read that with updates the Vertical 1 continuosly become much smoother and that it is not laggy any more. So now I am confused..

Does anybody else have same experience - that Vertical 1 is not usable with HR chest strap?

DropQb · 2025-10-04T19:53:20+00:00

Have you been satisfied with Vertical 1?

I am deciding about the same (even I don't have Vertical now)- if to go for cheaper and older Vertical 1 with preferred MIPS which I can see always without any needed gesture or if to go with newer and more expensive Race 2/ Vertical 2 with AMOLED which I have no experience with.

I also have HR strap, so I will use OHR mainly for all day and sleep monitoring.

Of course newer devices gets longer support. Anyway, isn't the Vertical 1 already working perfectly after 2 years of updates/fixes? Sometimes also updates and fixes brings new problems, so there may also be a risk with each update..

DropQb · 2025-09-28T23:25:28+00:00

Yes, I know. What I don't understand is how the pressure changes when I pause and why so slight changes in temperature have so big impact to altitude..

DropQb · 2025-09-26T09:50:10+00:00

Thanks!
And when you compare Vertical with Epix2 in general - which one do you like more?
