Suunto Ambit3 Run HR - Pros & Cons

app are functional and generally user-friendly
battery life is decent - about a week in normal use
some very nice touches in the recovery meter and the activity tracker
slimmed-down version is much easier to navigate
to immense depths
GPS-enabled and solidly built
The site and app are easy to use and reliable
simple utility of the entire Ambit family is remarkable
the battery life is admirable
some thoughts on the recovery features - sleep and quick
Create workout and transfer to watch fine
the speed (and distance) readings are very accurate
watch should work fine
Top Speed an Sprint readings are accurate
very good quality GPS and a very good training tool during
data itself is good
alert for Cadence is really useful and one of my favorite features
excellent GPS Accuracy
Backcountry & Competitive Cyclist offer free 2-day shipping
great functionality and reasonable GPS accuracy
it performed fairly well
recovery chart functionality and found that well implemented
fit for the bravest journeys

missing must-have features or functionality
it tends to favour chunky 'outdoor' watches
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
watch doesn t actually track anything other than the aforementioned sports and hiking
the watch frequently reverts to factory settings)
not constantly reverting back to the factory setting
it will be posted on the site
Fenix is lying flat on the ground
No cherry-picked units sent by manufacturers
GPS satellite data is inherently flawed
Ambit3 is not a compact watch
POD calibration data is lost
does a poor job of estimating pace from its internal accelerometer
Ambit3 does not have a vibration alert
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
the step counter was largely useless
It will not work with other 3rd party straps that have memory
GPS reception is lost every stroke and has to be regained every stroke
lack the full Brady Bunch of colors at my disposal
Too many are simply trying to capitalize on affiliate revenue

ascent and descent did appear to be inaccurate on the watch
Ultrarunning in particular often translates to long miles over many hours in backcountry areas
