Suunto unveils adventure watch Vertical

Can charge from the sun

Suunto is back with yet another Finnish-made adventure watch – this time it's the Vertical model, which promises "unbeatable battery life" and solar charging.

The battery life in the watch, made of titanium, is up to 85 hours, and in the watch made of stainless steel, up to 60 hours. Depending on which adventure watches it's compared to, these are either pretty good numbers or just mediocre. For example, Garmin's Fenix 7S lasts up to 14 days, while the Apple Watch Ultra is closer to the Vertical in terms of battery life. With the titanium model's solar charging, you should be able to get up to 30% more charge on sunny days.

Both watches can connect to GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BEIDOU, and QZSS, and up to 32 individual satellites simultaneously. Both also have a screen covered in sapphire glass and are waterproof up to 100 meters. The titanium model weighs 74 g and the steel model weighs 86 g. The watches do not run on Google's Wear OS, but can measure things like steps, heart rate, sleep, calories, and stress. There are also 97 different sport modes and the ability to create custom modes.

The Suunto Vertical will be released on May 16th and costs 6590 SEK with a stainless steel case and 8790 SEK if you prefer titanium.
