 Horrible PC software - A disgrace for Suunto May 12, 2010
Bass Hound
I own this watch and I cannot get the software to load on my PC without it crashing. It worked once while I was on XP but since upgrading to Vista it is a complete disaster.
When it worked the software was hardly usable.
While the T6 may be a good watch - the idea is to be able to use the downloaded data for your training program. The way the software works this is simply not practical.
I cannot in good conscience recommend this watch (due to the software) for anyone who want to manage their training data.
There are better solutions out there one of which is cycleops for cyclists. I have no idea what to use for a runner may be one of the polar products.
Suunto should be ashamed of the lousy software. I know a few people from Finland and they are a proud people but you would not know it from this piece of software. I hope Suunto reads this and will do something about it. Pity for such a nice watch to be hamstrung by junky software.
BTW I downloaded the latest software v2.20

I got my Suunto X6HR while at an adventure race in Borneo in 2002 and have used it extensively since. I have found the watch to be an overall great training and racing tool over the years. I would agree that battery life is not the strongest feature (my experience has been two per year for the watch and one a year for the chest strap - the battery life is significantly reduced if connected to the computer often). I have raced with this watch, trained with it and just worn it around town and have found it to be one my favorites (I have about eight watches in all!) One issue that does iritate me about it is the altitude setting goes back to zero each time the battery is changed and the process to bring it back up to 6660 (my home altitude) requires several minutes of button pushing/holding. Overall, this has been a great watch for me and I would recommend it to a friend.
 If you think it's a tough watch, think again January 20, 2008

I wear my X6HR in a regular environment (office, home), nothing near extreme condition. However, in less than a year, I foung the rubber band of the heart monitor is broken in many placed and the rubber became brittle with many hairline cracks. This is clearly a quality issue with the material used for the watch. In a trip to the Keys, FL, I found that the little rubber ring that holds the band of the watch in place broke in two piece much like what happed to the heart rate monitor band. The band itself also has many small cracks. I am sure the band will break in half sooner or later. The LCD on the watch also became fuzzy when I wear it around beaches. This is supposed to be a watch that you can bring to an expedition, yet it failed miserably in a everyday environment. If you are looking for a tough watch, look elsewhere. My Casio G-shock never gives me any headache that this watch gives.
 Excellent Watch, EASY INTERFACE. AWESOME... November 10, 2007

I love this thing. It would be hard to live without. All the features work exactly as described. Instructions are simple and clear. Great product.
Everything I wanted and a lot more September 13, 2007

The watch delivers everything you want from a HR monitor + outdoor adventures and is very simple to operate.
