By Anna Gora Published 7 November 2025 In Reviews Suunto may have been trailing behind Garmin and Coros for years, but this once-forgotten brand is rapidly surging in popularity — and for a very good reason. In the last two years, it has released some of its best sports watches to date, including the Suunto Run , an entry-level pick for casual runners, and the more premium Suunto Race , which is a budget-friendly alternative to the Garmin Forerunner 965 and a personal favorite of one of our experienced reviewers.
