And all of New York is a gig.
And it takes a while to send it.
It takes like an hour to send it over to the watch.
So it's a slow process, but it does actually work.
Once the map is on there, map navigation works great.
You can zoom in and out.
All that stuff is great.
And I needed offline maps for this because this was upstate where there's not very good coverage of any sort.
And also, by the way, these watches do not have a cellular option.
Garmin does on some of their larger models.
As far as I could tell, none of the Suunto's do, I don't think.
Certainly this one doesn't.
If you want this watch to have cellular for things like if you wanted to maybe take a run without bringing your phone with you, this isn't going to help you.
Similarly, most of these watches don't support local music playback to Bluetooth headphones.
Some of the newest ones do.
Again, I think the Apple Watch has spoiled us for how good of a computing platform, how good of a smartwatch it is.
But again, this is half the price and way lighter and with very good battery life.
