      Yes, it’s look like the bezel will turn but in fact i can’t understand why. There isn’t segment in the bezel.

          I hope that, if a new watch comes, it will have long battery life and good accuracy for GPS/altimeter. And it needs a screen that I can look at easily. If it has this, I’ll order one on release day. If not, I will keep my S9 Peak for a while longer.

            @isazi My guess is something similar to polar maybe where the central timekeeping info is static and you can ‘rotate’ screens based on what you want to see?!
            Contrary I would love for the bezel to half-rotate as someone said (like zoom on camera). Just imagine scrolling through screens while training with the bezel - cool 😄

              Whatever the shape, weight, or material, I hope Suunto keeps maintaining a simple and effective user interface, which is the main reason I love this brand…

                Did I miss anything or why are we talking about rotating bezels? That’s a feature that didn’t even cross my mind when thinking about new Suunto watches.

                  @Ivan-Vasilev I suspect the bezel is rotating. For me, your arguments against having a rotating bezel are totally valid.

                    @skifun I don’t think it will rotate because I don’t think Suunto will be adding such a complication to a newly designed uX (if think s9pp has this new UX ) plus adding a moving part (rotation) would mean a very difficult hardware implementation to maintain waterresistancy at 100m …
                    but let’s see

                              I think this is the long awaited successor of the Ambit series. IMHO the S9 needed nearly 4 years to come to the same feature level.
                              I hope we will see maps with routing capabilities and dual frequency GNSS. I would like to see at least 3 S+ apps at once and the possibility to upload a gpx track during an activity. Maybe something like ClimbPro and a PacePro feature which works better for trailrunning with a slower pace on steeper climbs would round up my wishlist.
                              A nice to have is autodetect uphills and downhills and set laps based on this natively (not as S+ app) and location based laps (e.g. a set waypoint in a tracks triggers a lap). TBT navigation but ETA/ETE/distance/elevation to the next set waypoint (not TBT direction) would also be very nice.

                              Let‘s see what we will get soon

                                @thanasis I hope it will not rotate.

                                  @trailcafe said in speculations and rumours about upcoming Suunto watches:

                                  the possibility to upload a gpx track during an activity

                                  you can already do that

                                    I hope Suunto don’t make as Garmin with a lot of models like titanium or stainless steel, solar or not…

                                      Don’t you like being able to choose?

                                        I prefer Suunto do what they always done:

                                        Quality
                                        Fiability
                                        Accuracy

                                        what answer to the marketing rules.

                                          We agree. I choose Suunto for the same reason. Having more choice doesn’t always mean sacrificing those values

                                            As far as solar goes - I think it might make sense on something like a bike computer, where you have a larger surface for the solar panel, but also constant exposure to sunlight due to its static position.
                                            With watches you lose both of these advantages - I think any benefit from the solar charging is going to be marginal and it wouldn’t make sense for Suunto to invest resources in something, I would consider mostly gimmick.
