Suunto Ambit 3 Peak is not a subtle watch
wrist-mounted accelerometer will catch small errors in your running or walking rhythm
the Global Goals band has slipped through the cracks
Ring is not meant to replace apps like Tinder
does not track the actual steps
Peak is only available in black and sapphire
doesn t mean it s not a valuable resource
innovation doesn t seem to be slowing
Highline Running
Highline Running Adentures To ensure altimeter accuracy
the pressure change to gain/loss in elevation
No cherry-picked units sent by manufacturers
unable to scroll to see longer messages)
missing must-have features or functionality
The accuracy is not commercial-grade
The receiver is smaller and not easily removed from the belt
The technology is not there yet
watches without altimeters can miss out on vertical movement
Too many are simply trying to capitalize on affiliate revenue
It will not work with other 3rd party straps that have memory
the step counter was largely useless
GPS reception is lost every stroke and has to be regained every stroke
lack the full Brady Bunch of colors at my disposal
POD calibration data is lost
the sky has started to release some rain
malfunctioning after it gets wet
the temperature and heart rate readings were somewhat inaccurate
doesn t appear hefty and massive on the wrist
Ambit3 Peak watch had a limited battery life
This site uses Akismet to reduce spam
it still lacks many features available on the website
Viewing all of your details on the watch is a pain
had hopeless maze of menus and a balky touch-sensitive bezel
clunky user-interface and slow and spotty Bluetooth syncing
Outdoor Gear Reviews
the sensor was at fault and a new one would be sent
the Ambit 3 Peak is not Ant+ enabled
You are using an outdated browser
redundant set of screens showing realtime data
the watch will only display so many characters on the Navigation route selection screen
the watch was a little ungainly
substantially slower than if you were on a mountain bike
customise some simple features
Navigation is a little weird at first
it tends to favour chunky 'outdoor' watches
Ambit3 does not have a vibration alert
does a poor job of estimating pace from its internal accelerometer
calibration is a little tedious
Errors in GPS tend to cause the display of current pace to swing wildly
has no alerts for when your Cadence is too low
