Suunto Vertical is here

@freeheeler Ok, i have set it as you said, but i would have preferred an option to turn off backlight completely…

[surfboomerang]

@freeheeler I agree, it’s way more sensitive then the S9P. Maybe even too sensitive. I even noticed the backlight came on even in full sunlight.
Isn’t the light sensor suppose to prevent that?

@dombo send me a PM if you have not contacted anyone else already.

[Likarnik]

@freeheeler there is no ‘Exercise only’ option anymore or am I missing something? I used this on my S9P as I do not need to light up screen in watch only mode…

[surfboomerang]

@Likarnik I think a lot has changed here. I also missed the “Adaptive” option for standby-light.

[Likarnik]

@Tieutieu do you have iOS? For me on Android (beta) it shows watch name:

@Likarnik Vertical clearly made you faster

[freeheeler]

@renton82
if you toggle off standby and select off in raise to wake, there shouldn’t be any light anymore, no?

[surfboomerang]

@renton82 Also make sure backlight setting is off if you scroll down from the watch face

[Egika]

@freeheeler I think there is no way to switch off the light that comes on when pushing the buttons on the watch…

It’s exactly what i mean.

@renton82
@Egika
ok I didn’t catch that. was this possible with previous models? I can’t remember to be honest

[Tieutieu]

@Likarnik yes I’m on iOS => just ckecked again. Name watch is not displayed. Not a big deal a guess it will be correct in a next update of SA.
But I will try again this afternoon and see if it is linked to the fact that I was on flight mode when I synchronised yesterday.

@Likarnik @surfboomerang the backlight settings have been heavily modified, new UI watches will have a different behavior than old UI watches.

I find that it works very well !!

@Tieutieu my configuration (tested for few months now) is:

• Brightness: low
• Standby: off
• Raise to wake: low

Battery consumption is minimal, and it is bright enough when needed.

@Tieutieu no it’s not there. I have noticed and asked the same yesterday. (I’m on iOS too) I hope it’ll be added in the next update. Not a big deal but nice to have.

Exactly same configuration as you, exactly same conclusions !

Very nice! Still dreaming of “athlete versions” of S9PP and SV: flat bottom, no internal OHR, little lighter, no “wellness tracking”

Great to see the photos of everyone’s new Vertical.
It’s my birthday coming up and my (very lovely) wife knows there’s no present I’d love more.
I’m working at home today and have just accepted delivery of a package from Suunto for her
Only problem is my birthday isn’t for 10 weeks
