Suunto 9 Peak Pro?
-
I put the S9PP and the Fenix 7x into operation on Saturday at 6 p.m. with 100% battery. As of today Fenix 78% Suumto 87%. Unbelievable what Suunto gets out of such a small and light watch.
-
@Kurt68 Thanks, as I posted also my experience. With poles or without poles the same. Also on warmer days. There are watches out there that are capable of that. Think from HW standpoint S9PP could do this, but I more and more think it is not really applied in SW in a way that works for many users, unfortunately. Could have something to do with more various unsteady movement than running. Just a guess. Hope S9PP gets more love to this. Hiking, speed hiking, mountaineering is a big group of activity of users… And for me also Suuntos home town (for example Suunto’s bench fused alti)
-
@mountainChris I made a new topic about HR comparison. I never wear a chest strap hiking/mountaineering, but the S9PP works better than the S9P for me in those cases.
-
@isazi Thanks. My intention is not to talk hiking HR or watch bad, but to maybe have someday an improvement here.
If hiking OHR for me would be as good as fused alti, I am in heaven.
-
@mountainChris I know.

Does anyone know how I can get hold of one? Have spent some time tonight trying to purchase online - with Conrad Sports I got through to the checkout and then found out there’s no option to ship to New Zealand. Then I tried BikeInn and again, unable to ship to NZ
-
@MiniForklift
just saw that Suunto only starts shipping to NZ end of January?!
I’m crossing fingers that you find one before end of November

Are the Sand and Slate editions of the Titanium S9PP the same watch just with different bands? I mean since they are both Titanium, the frame looks the same in the photos.
-
@seanvk
the body color is like the band color, they are different -
@freeheeler The material sandwiched in-between the titanium top and base, and where the buttons protrude, match the stock band color.
-
@mikekoski490
yes, thanks, I think I was a bit unclear with my answer, sorry for that
-
@freeheeler No worries! Was looking for opportunities to try my new Microsoft Pen anyhow lol.
-
@Łukasz-Szmigiel Confirmed that polarized lenses do not alter the watch display. Its sunny here and just checked with Oakley polarized lenses.

Again the usual picture in the Alps. The Fenix 7x with 3.3% more distance. All other values are very similar. The battery of the S9PP has to be positively emphasized. It was charged on Saturday and still 49% today after almost 8 hours of GPS training. The Fenix with 21% does even worse. With the same GPS settings, the S9PP had 14% more battery in the morning today. The 4:25 hour hike today was the Fenix in multi GPS mode and now they are 28% apart.

@Kurt68 yes the S9PP is very light on battery, achieving a battery life that similar sized watches do not. What will happen if Suunto increases the watch/battery size?
-
@isazi
I will pre-order immediately, that will happen
-
@isazi But what I find questionable is that Gohst notification still exists. The sleep tracking does not even recognize wake times. All problems that have existed since the first S9 and have still not been solved.
-
@Kurt68 there are no ghost notifications anymore. Everything old and left over from a watch connection interruption is deleted 48h or so.
There is no way for a wrist based device to detect if your eyes are open or closed while lying in bed.
If you start walking around at night, the watch will detect it. -
@Egika Algorithmically there is a way - how do you think Garmin and Polar are able to detect the sleep hours (forget about the stages). The sleep data I get from the S9B are near useless. If I enter by bed time at 10pm, the watch assumes I am asleep at sharp 10, whether the watch is on me or not. If I go to bed at 11, it assumes I go to bed at 10. S9B’s detection is an outlier here, atleast for me.
-
@altcmd
S9B is, for me, a bit inaccurate, that’s true. but it is not as bad as you describe. I wear my watch relatively loose, that doesn’t help, I know. But it detects when I go to sleep early or late and when I get up
