What is going on with Suunto?
-
@freeheeler thank you so much!
-
update is inbound fyi
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I’m quietly waiting for it
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos is there any changelog to read somewhere? it’s a pity it’s not available anymore.
-
@Soojong-Moon Same here
-
@gi0vanni everything has already been discussed in the forum, but the main update is making the new S+ apps work. A short summary will be published on Suunto’s website when released, as usual.
-
@gi0vanni what do you mean not available anymore ?
-
@isazi I try to read almost everything but I miss things here and there. A recap would be welcome when released (both app and fw).

What’s the meaning of “inbound” in this context? Which month?
-
@Mitch9 should be November.

Which year?
Uff that is 2-3 days… Getting excited.
-
@Ketoohs In the past it seemed that Suunto likes Tuesdays and Thursdays… Which doesn’t leave us with many options… Only one in fact
-
@isazi I’ve never seen such a specific release date before!
-
@suzzlo we should know on Wednesday if this time the release date is correct. I see that at Suunto all devs and others are working on the watches and the app to make everything ready for this and future releases.

Suunto maintains recent watches as good as possible and if hardware allows
@freeheeler As much I love Suunto, this statement about maintaining watches as good as possible if hardware allows is rather sad to hear for a watch released a little over a year ago. Would be fair if it concerned the Spartan series but for 9 Peak, rather disappointing.

To me, this is summed up by the idea that S9PP is what S9P was supposed to be. S9P has enabled Suunto to bridge the gap waiting for S9PP to be out and in an ideal world, S9P when it has been released should have been what S9PP has inside today.
-
@altcmd What’s so wrong about this statement? You should wait for the update before you complain. Just my two cents.
-
@altcmd first of all, what @freeheeler says is not an official Suunto statement, so you are just commenting on some other user’s opinion.
Second, @freeheeler didn’t say anything earth shattering: you can update software as long as the hardware allows for it. S9P will get updates, but will never get all of the S9PP functionalities, because it does lack in hardware for some of them. -
@altcmd did anyone say that S9P won’t get any updates or new features?

@Łukasz-Szmigiel
no, the op just feared at first as I understood.
we have another thread with similar fears and I personally find them unfounded.
my watch model is almost 4 years old and (again, personally) I don’t worry yet
