A few months ago, Suunto hinted at updating its Race S smartwatch. Now, they have released this new version globally, but it seems like it's only available through their own retail platform for now. Meanwhile, the older Race Titanium can still be found through other sellers (curr. $439.20 on Amazon).
Key Features of the New Model
The Race S Titanium has the same core hardware as the regular Race S. However, the introduction of a titanium bezel has allowed this new version to be a bit lighter than the stainless steel model. Suunto claims that the Race S Titanium weighs 53 g, while the Race S Stainless Steel weighs 60 g. This means the new model is nearly 12% lighter than its predecessor.
Design and Specifications
To summarize, the Race S Titanium comes with a 1.32-inch AMOLED display protected by Corning Gorilla Glass, all housed within a 45 mm frame. It also offers 32 GB of storage, a multi-band GNSS module, and can last up to nine days on a single charge when used in smartwatch mode. At the moment, the Race S Titanium is offered in Titanium Canary and Titanium Graphite colors for £395 in the UK, $449 in the US, and €449 in the Eurozone. Just a heads up, while Suunto has begun selling the new Race S in the UK and the US, it won’t be fully available in the Eurozone until October 15.
