Race 2 is not ready yet, but way etter than Race
Let me start by saying that Race 2 is probably the best watch Suunto has made so far. Positive: impeccable craftsmanship, excellent design, wrist HR sensor is leagues ahead of Race model. Slimmer, ligter, more elegant. Now to the bad: no matter how good your hardware is, if your firmware and/or software is unable to keep up with it, it makes it useless. As long as you NOT exercising with it, or at least not doing invervals training, it works pretty well. I was comparing Race 2 to my older Race w/ Polar H10 HR belt, and the HR trcaes are off the charts on Race 2, kind of all over the place. Tried a few other times with the stap tighter on my wrist, looser. Makes no difference. If you are doing some steady-state low level training, it should be OK, but I cannot trust it even at that after what I have exepriensed. DC Rainmaker overhyped this watch in my honest opinion. Suunot has realeased this model with minimal FW and SW support and development and is very silent on when the issues will be fixed. I got mine from REI and will be returning it shortly. 3 weeks of usage showed that Suunto still has some work to do on this model, but it looks promising. Time will tell.
Great Watch
Beautiful Finnish design. It simple, accurate and does everything I need it to. The app gives cleanly displayed metrics and is user friendly. Only complaint is when ending an exersize in cold weather the middle knob occasionally does not work properly and I have to go back to the previous screen.
A great watch for my purposes
I have been wearing my Suunto Race 2 for about a month now and really like it. Initial setup and syncing was quite easy, even for an older guy like myself who falls on the lower end of the tech savy scale. The initial setup required a software update but that was flawless. I synced the watch to my iPad just for more screen real estate when using and viewing the associated Suunto app. The Race 2 is extremely well engineered and the user interface and navigation system are so intuitive and user friendly that the initial learning curve is almost nonexistent. The display is quite easy to view, even in direct sunlight. GPS seems quite accurate. I mostly use the fitness-part of the watch for walking and lifting weights. I have found that the heart rate and blood oxygen readings are fairly accurate. I charge it once a week, even though it still reads about 25% battery remaining. I have found the Race 2 to meet and even exceed my needs for a fitness watch. The one thing that really stands out for me is just how well this watch is engineered. It is obvious that a great deal of thought went into the design of the Race 2.
