Suunto has announced two new products for runners and active users: the Suunto Race 2 trail running watch and the Wing 2 bone conduction headphones. Both are upgrades to their earlier versions, focusing on performance, comfort, and safety while offering better tools for training and daily use.
Suunto Race 2: Trail Running Watch
The Race 2 is Suunto’s most advanced running watch to date. It features a 1.5-inch LTPO display with 466 × 466 resolution, 2,000 nits peak brightness, and Always-On Display support. The LTPO technology allows the refresh rate to drop to 1 Hz to save power, while thinner bezels improve visibility.
The watch is designed for endurance with a battery that offers up to 55 hours of GPS tracking with dual-band GNSS, 16 days with continuous heart rate monitoring, or 22 days with heart rate monitoring off. It weighs 57g without the strap and 75g with it, making it 6 percent thinner and lighter than the earlier model. Built with a wear-resistant bezel, sapphire crystal glass, and stainless steel or titanium options, it is made to handle tough conditions. Color options include All Black, Feather Gray, Coral Orange, and Wave Blue in stainless steel, while titanium models come in Titanium Black and Titanium Trail.
It comes with more than 115 sports modes, including running, cycling, swimming, winter sports, and team sports. Users can also create custom modes with their preferred metrics. Offline maps can be downloaded for full navigation without a phone, along with climb guidance that provides real-time elevation data and pacing support on uphill and downhill runs. Training Zone features include Training Stress Score, Recovery Score, sleep and HRV tracking, and long-term fitness monitoring through Cumulative Training Load, VO₂ Max, and lactate threshold. The updated optical sensor delivers more accurate heart rate data, with continuous tracking and high heart rate alerts. The watch supports more than 300 third-party apps like Strava, Adidas Running, MapMyRun, and Runkeeper.
Suunto Wing 2: Bone Conduction Headphones
The Wing 2 headphones are built for runners and outdoor athletes who want to stay aware of their surroundings while listening to music. They deliver deeper bass and clearer sound with reduced leakage using improved metal components and optimized EQ. They feature dual microphones, AI call noise cancellation, and a wind filter that works at speeds up to 30 km/h.
Battery life is rated at 12 hours per charge and 36 hours with the included power bank. Fast charging provides 1.5 hours of playback in 5 minutes or 3 hours in 10 minutes. Connectivity is handled by Bluetooth 5.3. The headphones have an open-ear design with a slimmer and lighter shell for a better fit and stability. They are available in All Black and Coral Orange.
The Wing 2 also includes LED safety lights with Turn and Brake Mode and Cadence Sync Mode for night visibility. Built-in motion sensors track neck mobility and posture, giving reminders when strain is detected. Motion-based controls allow users to change tracks, adjust volume, or answer calls without touching the headphones. Real-time voice feedback keeps runners updated during training.

The Suunto Race 2 will be available from August 27, 2025, at €499 / $499 for the stainless steel edition and €599 / $599 for the titanium edition. The Wing 2 will be available from September 2025 at €179 / $179.
