By Anna Gora Published 20 January 2026 In Reviews Suunto is slowly carving a formidable niche in the world of outdoor and multisport smartwatches. We can attest to that — last year, we tested the running-focused Suunto Race 2 and Suunto Run . While we had some minor quibbles with them, we were generally impressed by their stylish design, advanced workout-tracking features and long battery life. This year, we got our hands on something even better — the Suunto Vertical 2.
