I have put together the most important questions and answers about Suunto and the popular Suunto Smartwatches for you.

Which Suunto watch to buy?

I'd recommend the Suunto 7 as it's the manufacturer's rock-solid middle-of-the-market model and comes with all the latest smartwatch features - the highlights here being the sharp AMOLED display and the modern Wear OS operating system that's consistent is further developed. Those on a smaller budget can fall back on the Suunto 5 Peak, which offers excellent value for money. The Suunto 9 Peak, on the other hand, is the high-end model and is aimed at users who have a higher budget and are looking for additional professional functions. Personally, I would buy the Suunto 9 Peak - for many users, however, the Suunto 7 should be ideal.

Suunto dive computers are one of the most widely used measuring instruments for divers around the world. The manufacturer has a market share of around 40 percent in the world market. In the meantime, the latest dive computers have also reached the format of a smartwatch and can be worn not only for diving, but also for other sports and in everyday life.

The Suunto 7 is the middle-of-the-market model that caters to a wide range of requirements and is technically state-of-the-art.

The smartwatch is versatile, it cuts a fine figure in everyday life, at work and in sports such as jogging, swimming and cycling.

What are the functions of Suunto smartwatches?

Current Suunto smartwatches contain the typical sports watch functions. These include, above all, heart rate measurement on the wrist, the recording and evaluation of workouts, sleep tracking, stress level management and typical smartwatch functions such as notifications.

Does the Suunto 5 have an altimeter?

The Suunto 5 and the successor model Suunto 5 Peak have an altimeter, where the altitude is measured via the GPS module. The display accuracy is up to one meter. Vertical speed and speed of ascent and descent are measured.

Which watch for sports?

The Suunto 7 is the ideal watch for sports. It has the most important current sports watch functions, a sharp AMOLED display, is compact and light and has a very attractive design.

Does the Suunto 3 have GPS?

Suunto 3 does not have built-in GPS. In order to make the watch as small and light as possible, no GPS receiver was installed in the sports watch. The Suunto 3 gets the location information from the smartphone via the mobile connected GPS.

Which is the best fitness watch?

Suunto's best fitness watch is the Suunto 9 Peak. It has the largest range of functions and a particularly elegant and attractive design. It is the Finnish manufacturer's high-end model. If you can spend a little less money and do without some functions, you can also take a look at the smaller models such as the Suunto 7, the Suunto 5 Peak or the Suunto 3.

Which fitness watch is right for me?

The Suunto 7 is the ideal watch for sports and the best choice for most users as it offers the greatest range of functions at a relaxed price.
