Rated 5 out of 5

Great GPS performance and five buttons

The GPS performance is exceptional especially for the size of the watch. I also appreciate that there are five buttons as that makes it easier to use the watch with gloves on.

Cool sport watch

It seems that Suunto is getting better and better. It took me a while to get used to smaller display size (I had Spartan before), however it didn't take too much time to get use to buttons instead of touch screen. I'm only using it for few weeks, but I've already noticed improved HR measurements and step counter, even in vibrations you can feel a difference. I like new training programs and love the watch telling me to "Slow down" when I'm over-motivated at the beginning of running. I can fully recommend this watch for those who are not comfortable with bigger screen (otherwise S9 might be a good option).

Nice watch packed with sports features

It is a nice affordable watch packed with features. GPS works really well and batter life is amazing. It is also good to have VO2max trend to see progress. Only downside is that display is not that great and it is a bit dark sometimes.

Everything you need.

I purchased the Suunto5 after running with a friend of mines Ambit3. This watch performs exactly how I had hoped. Its sleek in design while remaining tough and durable. Extra long battery life at up to 40Hrs. The sleep tracking has been an eye opening experience and has definitely helped in my future recovery plans. I would recommend this watch to anyone looking for everything they need, without wanting the extra price tag for features they wont utilize. The Suunto5 is a solid 5 out of 5.

Super životnost baterie

Nejv?tší devizou - krom? skv?lého vzhledu - je životnost baterie. I p?i nejvyšší p?esnosti GPS se v podstat? za týden nemusejí nabíjet. A pokud dojde ke snížení kapacity, hodinky se sami p?ipomenou se žádostí o nabití. P?esnost GPS je výborná, hodinky se skv?le ovládají p?i i mimo sportovní aktivitu. Navíc je jejich provedení velmi odolné proti poškození. Skv?lý p?ístroj za rozumnou cenu.

Sports, 24/7 activity and battery in a small package

I use my Suunto 5 to track sports, daily activity and sleep. I love it since the battery lasts very long and it also has battery modes that I use to optimize the power consumption. The watch helps me to improve my performance and follow my progress in different sports. I use the adaptive training guidance and fitness level tracking which means that when I for example go running, it tells me to speed up or slow down, so that the pace is optimal for me to improve my fitness level. The watch fits my small wrist well and it doesn't move around during exercise. I follow the stress and resource data on my watch. It's good to keep an eye on your resources, since sometimes you might understand that maybe it's not the best time to go exercising (and overtrain) if you want to achieve the best results. I also track my sleep and I analyze the graphs and summaries in Suunto app. It's great to have an overview on how well and how much I sleep, so that I can try to improve and this way support my training.
