New Suunto watch coming

[suzzlo]

@Mff73 The only thing i can think, is that Suunto wants to have headphones with onboarded music, to cover the impossibility of implementing it in the watches…

Connection to Suunto App… only for FW updates?

@suzzlo
this would require storing MP3.
I’m using Spotify for some years now and would find it cumbersome to take a step back

[DMytro]

@Jonathan-C I also wonder why does it specifically mention bone conduction, regular headphones won’t do?

[stromdiddily]

Perhaps alternative HRM capabilities?? Would love to use these w/o a chest strap for strength work…one can dream

[isazi]

Few more hours of waiting

[Jonathan C]

@DMytro I don’t know if you’re familiar, but if you look the headphones don’t go into the ears like normal ones do, these use bone conduction technology.

It’s going to flash

@Egika said in New Suunto watch coming:

10:00 CET

thank you!

[DMytro]

@Jonathan-C yeah, in familiar. What I’m trying t say is the following: if SA is adding new functionality for headphones, why single out bone conducting ones?
Probably the functionality is something like alerts or TbT or smth else, but this can be transmitted to any headp.

@Egika where? On suunto Homepage? Or in YouTube?! Or where!?

[Egika]

@GiPFELKiND EVERYWHERE
Suunto Homepage, Insta, Youtube, and of course: HERE

[suzzlo]

@freeheeler I agree… I will never go back to use mp3… but I’m struggling to find a connection between SA and headphones

I’m hoping all the new health metrics, UI etc. come to our Verticals and existing products.

[keke-hrv]

@Jonathan-C i’m excited from that promo video. Hope reviews will go live today. However, I don’t understand how it gets positioned to the Vertical, even price wise. If the leaked price will be confirmed I expect a price drop for the SV.

[leafs93]

@Jonathan-C wow…. Impressive !! But just surprised that they launch an amoled watch so soon after vertical … wouldn’t this affect the Vertical sales ?

[EzioAuditore]

@leafs93 well it depends I guess. I much prefer MIP screen in full sun and outdoor. Than the OLED is great in those dusk / dawn parts of the day. And at night I dont like a watch lightning on my wirst. But that’s just me.
