@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos said in S9 v. 2.4.14 GPS performance and practical questions it raises:
…and even Vantage cannot get the OHR.
seriously, U got one?
-
@paradize No I do not own one but I have putted on my wrist. OHR looked accurate and fast (some watches change slow) but still it did not work over tattoo. I did not test it.
-
The GPS accuracy seems to be hit or miss. I had a run done yesterday under dense tree cover and it seemed to work great yesterday, but other times, it usually misses the turns. May have to bring out the ol-Ambit3 Peak for a comparison.

@NickK with his swimming style none of device is going to show good data

@SlaSh Apple Watch did. Wait! You don’t consider it a sports device
Riiiiiiiight!

Riiiiiiiight! Hm. Apple pays more than Garmin now.

I am quite sure, if Sony fixes the thing with the GPS turning off, Suunto will perform very good in water! At least as good as the Apple Watch or the 935 (which was in the buoy!).
I did not watch every second of the clip, but does he say at which firmware which watch is running?

But strangely, only for open water
I don’t know how, but it has to do something with reptiloid conspiracy! -

Nope. No firmware/software versions, though he’s fairly careful to use latest official ones or whatever firmware he’s given by manufacturers to use in his tests. Give a man credit where a credit is due!

@paradize He promised an in-depth review of the Apple Watch 4.
He did all of the previous versions without much fanfare because to this date, Apple Watch remains kind of a marginal player as far as athletic endeavors are concerned. It’s the big boys like Garmin, Suunto, and Polar who get special attention. First look, unboxing, hand on, in-depth…
Also, I suppose the fact that Apple doesn’t send him a device a month or two before the release has something to do with the lack of early articles too

I am not sure if he can provide this ‘always at the latest firmware’ for all of his things in his many reviews.

Let’s wait and see what happens…
