Vertical 2

I'll just tackle a couple of these. I don't think anyone knows what's in store for new watches or software. I used to have a Vertical 1, and now own a Vertical 2. There is nothing I miss on the V1. I have my watch set to raise to wake, and I do a lot of trail running. I have no issues at all with th

You drop about 5% battery per day on the Vertical 2 and Race 2 when used in typical smartwatch mode. Give or take a few percentage points based on what settings you have, how often you use the watch, and battery differences between the two models. That battery drain works out pretty close to Suunto'

I would beg to differ having used Garmin, Coros and currently using Vertical 2. Suunto is much deeper in analysis than Coros. Coros does nothing for trail or ultrarunning. Not even Climbpro or trail VO2 Max. Coros will only let you make one run and one trail run profile. On Suunto you can make endle

I just replaced my fenix 7x with a vertical 2 and must say so far it's fine. I really miss Garmin Pay but on the other hand I wanted to quit paying with an American payment provider anyway. Sleep tracking is okay for me, somewhat different then Garmin but neither are perfectly accurate anyway. I use

I’ve been a die-hard Garmin user for the last 6–7 years, moving through the Forerunner series and most recently the Enduro 2. Yesterday, I officially made the jump and sold my Enduro 3. I’m still getting used to the Suunto Vertical 2, but I don’t regret the switch for a second. The UI is incredibly

For general use, battery life, even at it's worst, is still measured in weeks on the Race and Vertical series. With the Race S having the worst battery life since it is the smallest model and the Vertical Solar having the best because the verticals have larger batteries in addition to the solar. The

If you want a smart watch buy a garmin, if you want a sport watch consider suunto ;) Garmin watches are more customizable, provide more data, but I don’t think they are better. I would say that for someone interested in sport, how the body works, how training must be done suunto is really good. Tsb

Keep in mind that REI 20% discount doesn't typically work on GPS watches and other electronics. That aside, Vertical 2 is a great watch if you want to run UTMB, but by the time you are ready to run it and have accumulated 20+ stones to have a good chance in the lottery there will likely be newer and

Just moved to the Vertical 2 from the Ultra. Loving it! Never realized just how terrible Apple’s battery life is until I switched. Much easier to control notifications on Suunto as well

I think that the Vertical, especially the solar version is still a compelling option in 2025, even now with the release of the Race 2 and Vertical 2. As both of the second generation watches are very similar to each other (largely boils down to the presence of a rotating crown, the flashlight, and v
