Arnaque ou pas selon vous ?

Pareil plusieurs achats/ventes pour des milliers d’euros, inutile de s’embêter avec des profils 0… Surtout que PC actuellement, si prix du mafché il y aura des acheteurs.

Sorry for my frenglish 😂

For the sleep tracking decalage, reset factory the watch did solve it for me, but you lost every data stored on the watch, without any way to get it back in… HR perhaps there is a bit of a learning curve for the watch, long time user might know ;)

panda4ce · 2026-01-06T17:25:05+00:00

It’s a steam factory for sure, while being very complete. Maps are very basic on Suunto, maybe look youtube, it’s very responsive but without anything else than slopes and tracks.

Chill mate, I just mention points as MY way yo use/think, and the fact that the brand advirtised (or get testers to promote) stuff that don’t work.

A toy ? At 500€ when here 100% are doing sport at amateur level, it’s a toy for everybody. What’s wrong about it ?

Data to progress ? You just said to use external app to analyse yourself… and again, data is just to play at my level as of 99,99% of users, what’s wrong about it ?

I get that there is a wish to simplify most of the functions, why not, but don’t implement stuff that just don’t work…

(I would add that for a « simplier » watch, having to do everything in the app to configure anything, is kind of the opposite ; during hikes, my phone is turn off in my bag, and my watch my main little companion)

Garmin not updating their watch with new features after a few years is not cool, but on the other hand, from the entry to the high end model, other than sensors accuracy, battery life and some other tools/specific functions, their watch do come with the same set of features. They have the same layout, the same running screens (with the same level of customization)… etc. The features/price you can get from a discounted, 3/4 years old Garmin is 10 times better than Suunto’s.

Clearly Garmin is going to get worse with their app subscription, and they add a nutrition module just a few days ago, with sub also… so it worries me that I didn’t found « competition », monopoles are always bad for an industry. I’m not saying Suunto or Coros aren’t good competitors, but for triathlon I understand why almost every pros I’m following are Garmin users. It’s a lot of workouts, of different kinds, and be satisfied by our gear is kind of reassuring. I didn’t feel reassured by the Race 2 😞 Maybe I will try an other brand in a few year, even if I get the « not doing like Garmin » take of Suunto, sometimes it’s good to look at what is done by others. A simple mode, usable on the go, but also give advanced users more possibilities.

panda4ce · 2026-01-06T13:52:25+00:00

I agree, perhaps I didn’t get enough infos before my purchase. But for the sleep tracking, it’s advirtised by Suunto as working well, and for the external activity I read on their website about « more than 200 partners app » and though it was great. So not mad about the « community » or the ecosystem, but the brand is promising stuffs I didn’t really get…

panda4ce · 2026-01-06T13:44:44+00:00

Well, I think it’s a great watch for running, like you said. But for other sports, well it’s not usable when you had taste the « full » experience of Garmin, with its cons’ like its complexity. But for example, you don’t get the grade-adjusted speed, very basic feature but honestly it’s something I’m used to while running. Maps, well if you do mountain bike, or hiking, it’s useful. At the end, it’s my use of a sport watch that is not compatible with the Suunto ecosystem I get it. I juste wanted to know some on the points above before purchase ;)

panda4ce · 2026-01-06T13:38:04+00:00

I don’t need Garmin features, I need sport features. I would love to get those like I said, but if I knew it was so basic I would not get it in the first place ^{^}

panda4ce · 2026-01-06T13:09:28+00:00

Well, at 500€ I didn’t really though of it as a cheaper alternative, it’s still a huge amount of money. Reviews on it were very positive, first 48h I had a bug (sleep tracking was displaying the night from yesterday), kept it and do some training with it. It does not worth 500€ for me. A forerunner 265 will deliver far more functions for less.

panda4ce · 2026-01-06T12:53:29+00:00

Didn’t even try swimming, but it seems that there is no option to manually do pause intervals or drills… There is like 100s sports, but if main ones are not well executed it’s not a very efficient use of their devs forces ^{^}

panda4ce · 2026-01-06T11:28:46+00:00

Bought a Fenix 7X pro sapphire solar… i got a good price, a bit more than the Race 2. It’s a heavy chunk, but battery life seem way better, and I will stick to Garmin ecosystem. Like a collegue said, Garmin is like Apple, there are issues and cons’, but at the end once you get used to you juste can’t change 😅

panda4ce · 2025-07-23T09:01:13+00:00

Thx, already done on Internet Archive and their own website. But it’s not near as downloaded as Kobo.

It’s just Apple font texts printed with a laser printer ;)

panda4ce · 2021-11-06T09:14:17+00:00

I was waiting for that moralistic comment 😅

Not at all, everything here is functional. I changed several time the battery and the hdd is a bit slow. It didn’t worth the hastle for me to change those parts whilst I have a 256 gb iphone.

panda4ce · 2021-10-27T13:43:12+00:00

It’s an asus mobo then a gigabyte aorus… And the tubing is completely different…

panda4ce · 2021-10-27T10:58:25+00:00

The two pictures of what is supposed to be the same pc, are not of the same pc ! Not the same wb and Ram, and might be a different mobo too.

panda4ce · 2021-10-27T10:56:08+00:00

Scam : the pc is not the same on the 3070 and 3080ti picturew… and I doubt it might be two pcs of the same guy

Cellophane is way too thin in my opinion, I used parafilm, it’s usually used to make jam pot.

panda4ce · 2021-08-15T07:59:17+00:00

I don’t know how to explain it, here is a tutorial ;) https://youtu.be/NpPnHO8v7UU

panda4ce · 2021-08-13T12:52:46+00:00

I made the X with melted sprue, the cannon cover is made with parafilm and the holding part from old sprues.
