Cons
  • Straps aren’t that great

Performance

The Suunto Core sports watch performs well outdoors thanks to all the built-in sensors. It can tell the true north using the digital barometer compass, and also predicts sunrise and sunset times. The most important feature on the watch is the Storm Alarm, which can warn you of approaching unpleasant weather by monitoring air pressure. The battery life of the watch is good enough and the cell is easy to change. If you’re an indoors person, then try the Amazon Echo Dot (3rd Gen) for all weather updates.
