speculations and rumours about upcoming Suunto watches

[Highlands]

@DMytro Isn’t it too early now for a SP5Peak successor?

[DMytro]

@Highlands now it surely is too early, but maybe in a year? I’m mostly curious if it will inherit the new processor and UI or will it be like the legacy watches.

Should be used for sleep quality and for resources… but it’s a rather bad thing (data-quality-wise) to do during an activity, last I know.
Just think of the trouble oHR has simply getting HR right, then imagine having to get even fainter signals.

[Highlands]

@DMytro Maybe a S5P successor will target the successor of Coros Pace 2? So, it shouldn’t be like the legacy watches.

[suzzlo]

@Highlands if they create a new line… Perhaps they can bring all different market segments at the same time…

[Highlands]

@suzzlo How many models in a supposedly new line?

French reseller listed with solar

@Highlands Agree. I think the current 5 Peak, with the MSRP recently dropped to match the Pace 2, is definitely being positioned as a competitor, so it makes sense that future iterations will vie to continue to stay competitive.

I can envision that budget level of wearables getting more and more cool features sooner rather than later across all brands.

Based on a cache I have seen, MRP 599 euros in Germany and will have maps. Not sure if this is titanium or not.

[Highlands]

@altcmd What do we know so far:

• maps
• multiband
• solar
  Looks like I’ll buy it.
  What else do we know about the watch?

[altcmd]

@Highlands and price

[altcmd]

I have at least seen 1 website where I can already buy it.

[altcmd]

The bezel is still a bit too prominent, IMO.

[Highlands]

@altcmd Could you share a link of the website? The bezel doesn’t bother me. The watch looks very good imo.

[Ultrawalker]

@Highlands 48,8 mm case?
So i think 1,3 inch screen?

[el2thek]

@altcmd I did see one cache with titanium that had a higher price. So assume the one you saw will be steel.

[Highlands]

@Ultrawalker I’m ok with the size. I like it.

@Highlands if we really get a solar variant, maybe the “black bezel” is for solar charging --> bigger than the Garmin one --> more solar energy
