Suunto is refreshing its Ambit GPS sport watch with not one but two new models. The Ambit2 S and the Ambit2 share most of their older sister’s features but will each focus on specific activities.
To meet the needs of performance sports-oriented users even better, we felt that a lighter, slimmer GPS with more sports-specific features was needed to complement the Ambit family.
says Suunto president, Mikko Moilanen.
The Ambit2 S is the multisport one with options for running, cycling and swimming. Aside from the GPS information like speed, navigation and tracking, the Ambit2 S supports ANT+ for linking with other measurement tools like power meters and heart rate monitors. It can detect your stroke rate while swimming and give you accurate pace and distance metrics.
