Suunto Race 2 vs (Race 1, Race S, Garmin FR 970) in heart rate accuracy tests. 😈🔥 Preliminary findings.
Hope this helps anyone curious about the Race 2 and how it stacks up against other Suunto devices as well as Garmin’s Flagship Forerunner 970.
Seems to be a clear improvement in HR accuracy. It even managed to fight off Garmin’s Forerunner 970 in today’s Hill Rep session (600m of elevation). Seems

Sobre a Garmin
Putz, pessoal....eu estou começando a praticar corridas e fiz uma breve análise nos relógios da Garmin. Fiquei perplexo! O topo da linha Forerunner (970, certo?) está custando a partir de R$ 6000 em lojas mais confiáveis (centauro, garmin store, etc). Eu sou engenheiro eletrônico, tendo atuado com p

Coros Pace Pro Long Term Review.
Hello Everyone,
After a week of overthinking on a thought of becoming a reddit reviewer I finally decided to pull the plug and will be posting many reviews of different tech products and shoes i use for my running starting with the one closest to me- COROS PACE PRO or in general, Coros brand.

Forerunner 970: Impressions after a week of use.
A week ago I've finally upgraded from my trusty old launch day Forerunner 955 Solar to a brand-new 970 (mostly for the triathlon training plans and AMOLED screen).
The impressions so far:
- the screen is awesome. I went for Solar edition of 955 hoping that the PowerGlass was upgraded compared to my

Track running with Apple Watch and Garmin - surprisingly even calorie estimations almost align
Very good alignment from both Series 10 (running WatchOS 11.5) and brand-new Forerunner 970. Granted, the HR is captured by a chest strap connected to both of them at the same time, but the rest is spot-on.

Like the look of the Vertical 2 but is the software really that bad ?
Currently have a forerunner 970 and really tempted by the vertical 2 just love the look of this watch, but reading data not correlating and other software issues is this really that bad ?

New to Coros Pace Pro Family
Hello all,
I had the Garmin Forerunner 265, but then I upgraded to the Forerunner 970. I had the Forerunner 970 for about 3 weeks, and I realized it wasn’t really for me. I didn’t need all the fancy features. I just run, and I need a watch that’s simple and easy to use. So, I switched to the Pac

Leaving Garmin after 10 years (FR955 firmware fail). Suunto Race S or Coros Pace Pro?
I'm a long time Garmin user on holiday in Italy at the moment and my Forerunner 945 just died so I looked around for a replacement. The Suunto Race 2 titanium is less than half the price of a FR 970. I have a number of complaints about Garmin and how they treat customers so I thought it would be a g

I bought a T-Rex 3
I was torn between the Garmin Forerunner 970 and the T-Rex 3, but I ended up buying the T-Rex 3. However, it only supports VO2 max for running, and the Zepp training plans are too difficult, with intensities that don’t match my level, which is a bit overwhelming. Since I enjoy cycling a lot, it’s di
