@skifun welcome to the club, waiting for updates is my hobby.

I wish Suunto would publish the change log of the upcoming update as Garmin does. I like that you know what to expect:

@skifun Suunto does not provide public beta builds. The change log is published when the update is released.

Only provide Beta of SA

@Brad_Olwin That’s why I wrote wish they did.

There are a large number of reasons why they do not. I can give you more information if you want. PM me.

@Brad_Olwin Thank you but I’m not that interested.

I’m just not interested in the reasons they don’t publish upcoming change logs. It is what it is. But if they publish the change log itself, I’ll gladly read it.

Part of the reason is testing involves features that may or may not make a release depending on the amount of testing that is done. Sometimes a feature breaks the firmware in unexpected ways or simply does not work well enough. Or there are other unforeseen problems. So publishing features being tested will only disappoint as some features may be cut from a firmware release. Suunto does a lot of field testing to ensure new hardware and new firmware is as bug free as possible.

@Brad_Olwin Thanks for the explanation. Makes sense to me.
On a side note: let’s hope the maps won’t break the firmware of Suunto Vertical

Yo dude,

@skifun so sad to see you are gone.

But you were welcome to suunto community.

Hi, I am wondering if s9pp gets the new weather widget presented at Suunto Vertical

[isazi]

@rooldaa it will, it should happen next week.

[Dušan Ković]

@isazi Any more new things coming to S9PP? Tnx

[isazi]

@Dušan-Ković plenty, but I lost track of them, so let’s wait for the official announce on release day. Everything that is on the Vertical and does not require new hardware, will end up in the S9PP. Except the new watch face, that at least for now is Vertical only.

[Dušan Ković]

@isazi Thank you!

[Dušan Ković]

@isazi Aside for obvious, more storage memory, bigger battery, size, solar, dual band, display, etc are there any HW differences from S9PP to Vertical? Cpu, ram, HR sensor, baro sensor, etc?

[isazi]

@Dušan-Ković HR sensor should be the same, or a minor update of the same LifeQ sensor, CPU and RAM may be better (do not remember the exact model, but I think it is better), baro I think it’s the same, but the “baro hole” design is different, more resilient to water.
