Suunto Vertical 2 adventure watch features new sensor and brighter display
Suunto has launched the Vertical 2, an advanced adventure watch designed for long expeditions and daily journeys. The new model builds on the original Suunto Vertical series.
The Vertical 2 features a redesigned optical heart rate sensor for a new level of wrist-based measurement accuracy, a larger and brighter AMOLED display, and an upgraded processor for faster, smoother operation. It also includes a built-in LED flashlight for safety and convenience.
It retains the advanced navigation tools, rugged design, and battery life the Vertical series is known for.
The watch delivers up to 65 hours of GPS tracking in its most accurate dual-band mode and up to 20 days of smartwatch use.
For navigation, Vertical 2 offers free detailed offline maps, available on the watch and in the Suunto app, including contour lines, paths, and terrain features. Suunto’s Climb Guidance feature also helps users prepare for and navigate hilly terrain by providing real-time elevation profiles.
The new 1.5” AMOLED display has 466 x 466 resolution for clarity in direct sunlight. The rugged design is available in steel or titanium, and three side buttons ensure operation in all weather, even when wearing gloves.
A practical addition for outdoor use is the integrated LED flashlight in the bezel, which offers adjustable brightness, a red-light mode for night vision, and safety functions such as SOS and pulse modes.
With 115 sport modes, advanced training analytics, weather alerts, altitude data, and smart features, Vertical 2 adapts to a wide range of sports and environments. It integrates with the Suunto app and over 300 partner services.
