speculations and rumours about upcoming Suunto watches

if in the future Suunto watches have a wifi connection - in what situation would it be convenient to use wifi? I have never had a Garmin watch or any other brand with a wifi connection.

Perhaps to download maps.

Download software updates, upload workouts?

@Wilson75
Garmin: You can download FW updates and synchronise your watch with Garmin Connect (upload activities, download tracks etc.)
Coros: Download maps (with the upcoming FW update) and FW updates

@Bulkan Your point is valid given he’s connected SA to Strava. I could not find any swimming lately except one with Forerunner 955 (so maybe to compare the GPS)? There are a lot of biking stuff with some random bike source no device stated and awesome GPS accuracy: I really want to believe they are Suunto’s

[v.sacre]

I would only consider to change for a newer Suunto for the moment if new one has maps.

@Tieutieu From DC Rainmaker review: “note that full roll-out of these new features may take up to a week for all users to start seeing them, via the updated app”

[Tieutieu]

@Efejota I understand that it may depends of the number/volume of activities ? I see all the features they describe since I updated SA yesterday.

@Mitch9 I just had this come up in one of my feeds in Microsoft Edge, but the link is broken currently which is proper. Must be something coming soon though: …mazon.ca/SUUNTO-Vertical-Adventure-Offline-Charging/dp/B0C11B8ZGK

If it is in Suunto’s filing with the FCC, is it a leak?

@mikekoski490 don’t see a google cache yet.

[altcmd]

@Gerald-Zhang-Schmidt this? https://fcc.report/FCC-ID/RYPOW222/

[altcmd]

@altcmd 48.8mm diameter. Bigger than 9PP.

[DMytro]

@altcmd but smaller than s9b

[el2thek]

@DMytro would be good if the display is the same size though.

[DMytro]

@el2thek true! Certainly it must be bigger than s9pp

[Freezer]

The question of maps seems to be answered.

[Ultrawalker]

Do you think the new Suunto Vertical will be a high-end model?
Or should we wait for the Suunto 10?

[DMytro]

@Ultrawalker I’d bet on high end model.

[StefanoMorgan]

@Ultrawalker The Highendmodel will be the Vertical Peak Pro
