Suunto’s summer updates to firmware are now installed on many of our devices and the recent FIRMWARE for the AMBIT3 range is no exception.
Recovery Status, Recovery Time, Quick Recovery Test, Sleep Recovery Test and Running Performance Level now put the AMBIT3 on a par in that particular area with Polar and both slightly edging ahead of Garmin in this specific respect.
We wait expectantly for possible further updates at the end of July as well as waiting to see if Garmin announce yet another new product at the start of August, following their recent trend of monthly new-product announcements.
