Suunto Vertical is here

[Highlands]

@André-Faria I wonder if Suunto can make the maps routeable with a software update?

[Dušan Ković]

The only reason I’m not getting vertical iz size… I have thin wrists and S9PP is better choice. I had S9B and it was just too big. Good job to Suunto on Vertical, looks like great watch!

[Richard Thygesen]

@Dušan-Ković same for me but in addition I have what I need in my S9P. Maps and stuff is not for me.

@Highlands I suppose they COULD, I don’t know if they WILL.

Routable maps need more space for storing, and routing itself (as in route generation and/or rerouting) needs computing power, so while technically possible I have no idea if this is even being considered or not.

I think it is possible but it should not be easy. I think it would add up a multitude of complications/possible errors and need of computing power. If they add some functions on the app regarding that it is somehow “solved”.

@André-Faria @isazi Guys, thank you very much for the explanation. Much appreciated.

@Dušan-Ković I have also doubts about the size. I had 9 Baro and it was quite thick. Hitting it everywhere. Vertical is more flat though. 13,6mm vs 17mm(Baro) as Peak is 10,8mm.

Hopefully I get my Vertical next week and see how it actually fit.

I preffered the s9p over the baro. I prefer the Vertical over s9p.

So if you have doubts just order wear and send back. Or go to a shop. The watch is not like the humongus s9b

Are there any differences regarding screen quality between solar and non solar models? In this video the display of the non solar models look great, while the solar models look pretty bad. I don’t think the angle of the camera is the reason.

Hi all!
Happy days today. Ordered one and I’m and I have one question. I received email from Suunto welcoming me to the Suunto community. In the newsletter it says that I can create a Suunto account and get to know the features on movescount.com??? (the link goes to suunto.com.

Is moves count coming back or is it just a old text that have been missed?

No. The display screen area is exactly the same.
The solar panel is just hiding under the outer ring where there is no displayed sacreen content.

@wmichi screen is the same, I have both versions. However solar has the solar cell on top, but I used it for months now and readability is great. I have to keep backlight settings to low because it’s too bright otherwise.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@helgonet12 lets fix that thanks

[wmichi]

@isazi Thanks for clarification. I know, there is this solar ring around the display (not on top of the display like on Garmin watches according to dc rainmaker). I was just wondering, why the black on the solar screens looks so grey, while the non solar versions have a deep black and great contrast. But if you say the displays on both versions look the same, I believe you Can’t wait to find out by myself.

Thanks for your input. Regarding costumization of watchfaces and shortcuts we remain the same compared to s9p?

[isazi]

@André-Faria yes… for now

[Pavlas]

@wmichi It looks to me like a sticker on the non-solar version.

[Ivan Vasilev]

For all who are familiar with the watch: are there any other differences (for example, additional functionality) between the solar and non-solar models, besides the obvious ones (the solar itself and the titanium)?
