Suunto Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro Amber Features

1. Great Design and Sunlight Visible Display

The Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro comes in a very stylish design that’s both elegant and classy. It has the appearance of a real watch while spotting a sporty strap which you can always change with any other 24mm of your choice. This gives you a watch you can wear to the gym or to the office and it looks awesome on all occasions. A great bargain, I must say.

Of course, it’s built to last with the most durable materials; a glass fiber reinforced polyamide case and a stainless bezel with mineral glass crystal covering that’s also hard and durable.

The display looks great, it’s powered by matrix LCD, although not as lively and interactive as AMOLED, it’s easily visible outdoors. You shouldn’t have any problem reading complications on the screen under direct sunlight.

2. Waterproof Rating

The Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro is rated 10ATM which makes it water-resistant up to 100 meters. It’s safe when it comes in contact with water. You can wear it to the pool while swimming and the good thing is, it has robust swim-tracking features which makes it a great choice for tracking laps count, calories and heart rate while swimming.

3. Impressive Battery Life

The battery life of the Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro is also impressive. You should easily get over a day or two of battery life on regular usage. Training mode with GPS gets you about 10 – 30 hours which is great. It has a longer battery life than many of its close competitors.

4. Activity/Fitness Tracking

The hallmark of the Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro is in its fitness tracking capabilities. This watch can really help you stay fit. It comes packed with a handful of sensors which include all the essentials. This enables it to track quite a lot of activities which include calories, sleep, continuous heart rate monitoring and even more interesting the GPS tracking features.

The Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro with a barometer gives accurate altitude information because it combines GPS data with barometric altitude information (FusedAlti™). Based on data from the barometer, it also provides outdoor information like sea level air pressure and has a storm alarm.
80 sport modes are preinstalled which includes;

• Running
• Hiking
• Trail running
• Swimming
• Cycling
• Snowboarding.

Recorded stats are stored in the Suunto App where you can view all tracked data at a glance in the most fashionable way. The Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro is also compatible with online sport communities such as Strava, MapMyFitness and more.

Although the Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro is somewhat different from your regular smartwatch being that it lacks some essentials like no NFC, no onboard storage for music, nor WiFi. However, it does a good job of keeping you connected to what matters to you.

When connected to a compatible device, the Spartan Sport Wrist HR Baro keeps you in the know by alerting you when there’s new notification on your phone.
