Suunto Vertical is here

[Tieutieu]

Pffff despite I placed my order on Suunto Website a 10:10 last tuesday, I guess I am part of the « simple mortals » who will have to wait for next tuesday’s expeditions….

I have a question for those using vertical already : I have read that music control widget can’t be unselected for now ? It is perhaps the only feature I don’t use at all and find totally not usefull…

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos can you link the watch to BT keyboard?

[isazi]

@Tieutieu music widget, that is media control, can be enabled and disabled like all other widgets.

[isazi]

@Łukasz-Szmigiel with S+ app, I guess so

[isazi]

For the people receiving the watch, remember firmware is probably not final, not sure which version you’ll find installed.

@isazi Non vedo l’ora di poter allacciare il Vertical al mio polso!!!

[Ivan De Rasis]

@isazi Anche se il mio S9 Baro è ancora mostruoso malgrado i suoi 5 anni di incessanti attività!!!

There is no icon for missed notification on any of the watchfaces?

[Freezer]

@Tieutieu widget as well as in-exercise music controls can be switched off.

[Tieutieu]

@Freezer @isazi thank you for this confirmation !

@DF130
Sure, but I don’t expect Garmin to be cheaper, isn’t it?

[DF130]

@sartoric F7SS is 659.99 GBP and 899.99 EUR, so the other way around. Unless you make use of the father‘s day offer in Germany, which is 729.99 EUR - and also gets you F7XSS for 799.99 EUR. Now I know more about Fenix prices than I ever wanted . But as said, I don‘t think the quoted comment makes sense - only point is that one should try to buy the Vertical in EUR and avoid GBP if one can…

@Ketoohs very very similar, but not identical

[vlado]

@vlado also the icon for phone connectivity is missing

[aroo7]

@vlado let’s patiently wait until tuesday

Too bad the new charging cable doesn’t come with a usb-c

[vlado]

@aroo7 agree

[vlado]

But aside the icons, forgot to mention important thing…watch is a beast

I want to congratulate suunto engineers. This watch at least on paper looks like Suunto took “second breath” and is ahead or at least at same level as best competitors.

I just hope that issues like i experience on S5P with battery charging don’t occure on this expensive watch. And realy wish for toggle backlight to get back.

But overal this watch looks great. I am truly happy for suunto. Hope it will sell well.

Btw. What kind of screen it is? Is it some reflective technology like current S5/S9 just with better/more colors or is it some active backlight screen like lcd/oled?

[renton82]

@Tomas5 It’s a MIP Transreflective display

[Tomas5]

@renton82 thats great
