We know that sometimes it is really difficult to find an electronic device capable of keeping up with the hectic pace of everyday life and, at the same time, offer an accurate and effective monitoring of our physical exercise. The Suunto 7 Titanium successfully combines performance, functionality and design to accompany you in each and every one of your daily routines. A smartwatch that includes the most advanced sports functionalities of heart rate monitors without sacrificing the maximum connectivity of Smartwatches; in short, a device halfway between the two worlds that includes the best of each.
At RUNNEA we took a closer look at the Titanium version of the Suunto 7, a smartwatch optimized for a sporting life without limits. The main difference between one model or another lies in the design, the Titanium version includes a solid titanium bezel and an ultra-soft microfiber textile strap that fits perfectly to your wrist raising the degree of comfort. Functionally, both devices offer impeccable monitoring of physical activity and extensive connectivity, making them the ideal choice for your day-to-day life.
What type of users is the Suunto 7 Titanium intended for?
This is the first smartwatch on the market specifically for outdoor activities, a pioneering device incorporating the Google Wear OS system that combines Suunto 's extensive sports experience for effective monitoring of your daily routine. A device aimed at a broad spectrum of users, from those athletes looking to get started in the sport to those who already have a long history.
Specially optimized for users who prioritize unlimited connectivity on a daily basis, this Suunto 7 Titanium version offers a very intuitive, comfortable and versatile sports experience .
What did we like most about the Suunto 7 Titanium?
Undoubtedly, the most relevant aspect of this new device is that it combines with great success the best of two worlds: daily life and sports life. Two facets that coexist in harmony with the aim of offering a precise and effective response to the user.
A very versatile option that brings with it such outstanding features as the heart rate sensor on the wrist, 70 sport modes, altimeter, GPS or outdoor maps that will push you to squeeze the most out of your daily workouts.
- Connectivity is another of the great strengths of this Suunto 7 Titanium version. The fact of incorporating the Google Wear OS system makes things much easier, since you can transfer all the information you choose directly from your smartphone; contacts, agenda, through a very agile and intuitive process. In addition, it also includes some of the most outstanding tracking features typical of Smartwatches such as sleep tracking, activity tracking or stress tracking, among others.
- The design continues to be one of the safe values of the firm Suunto and in this Titanium version plays an even more prominent role. This device incorporates a solid titanium bezel (grade 5 titanium) and an ultra-soft microfiber textile strap that adapts perfectly to your wrist and provides a comfortable, breathable and secure fit.
In addition, its high-resolution touchscreen is protected with durable Gorilla® Glass and the watch case has been reinforced through fiberglass, the result? A functional, attractive, resistant and very very versatile design.

Opportunities for improvement
Battery life is one of the main handicaps we observed in the new Suunto 7 Titanium. As recommended by the manufacturer itself, "if you use your watch actively, we recommend that you charge the Suunto 7 daily", something that may be counterproductive for some of our runners.
Battery life can vary considerably depending on sporting activity as well as the applications and usage of the device. It is important to note that the use of the battery-saving GPS mode makes the battery last longer during libre workouts although as we have mentioned, battery life is its main weakness.
Final conclusions
If you are looking for a device capable of keeping up with your daily pace and also offering you accurate monitoring of your sporting activity, this Suunto 7 Titanium is one of the best options on the market. A device that combines the most outstanding sports features of the most advanced heart rate monitors on the market with the maximum versatility and connectivity that characterize Smartwatches.
In short, your tireless companion of adventures that will allow you to be aware of all notifications, tasks and metrics that make up your day to day with an impeccable, elegant and resistant design.
