@suzzlo I am using the SSU, that unit does not have OHR. That I think is our problem here. Without the unit being able to also measure HR the 3D movement things are so and so. Tested it in the past with Polar (I was 2+years user) it’s ok. Nothing biggie there.
However, regarding the SF3 I read very interesting stuff.

@fleky Why would they not? It’s new HW as it was the trainer…

@brad_olwin said in Suunto 3 Fitness Thoughts:
Well, the new Fitness 3 was announced. Apparently very light and I assume some features will come to the other Spartans with future updates. Y’all might think I am crazy but I would buy this watch if and only if it would support Stryd. While I like having GPS tracks, a lightweight watch with a long battery life and pace/distance/power/elevation from Stryd would be great. I loved my T6c and had over 2000 miles on it before the Ambit came along. Unfortunately, I do not imagine Suunto will enable Stryd functionality on this watch but if they do I would seriously consider it. What do the rest of you think?
batería de larga duración ?, donde viste eso? yo no lo vi en la web

@suzzlo said in Suunto 3 Fitness Thoughts:
And they say, Suunto App will be starting in spring (out of beta)!
The Minimal viable feature set for Suunto 3 Fitness is ready for the launch of that product. The Suunto app Beta will continue with other devices that may be more demanding with features. The decision when Suunto app beta will end is still on table aka not done yet.
-
@jouko-from-suunto I understand that new product will be launched with a stable version of the Suunto App. So I presume that in spring will be a Stable version of Suunto App. I will love the option of two branches, stable app and beta app for user like us
-
@suzzlo I hope this is going to be the way. I would almost bet on that.
-
@suzzlo To be more speciifc, it makes no sense to have no beta.
We can here be a bit ahead in time and test all the new goodies! -

@therunningdaddy Seems that OS core is the same of Spartan.
-
@luís-pinto yep, looks like it. Starting with Spartan Suunto is developing the new OS. That is why we don’t have functionalities transferred 1:1 from Ambit series.
So all that we miss from Ambit is NOT on Spartan because Suunto decided to not include those functionalities - It’s because those functionalities have to be completely rebuild and adapted to new OS. At least it seems like that is the case. Long way to go but we’re gonna get there. #2018updateiscomming -
@therunningdaddy This has always been my conviction. The Spartan OS was written from scratch when it was released.
-
Yep as @TheRunningDaddy Said.
However, keep in mind that like all os/platforms they have sw and hw limitations.
You cannot fit all the stuff in all the iPhones for example and the same goes for Android etc.Welcome to modern world development.
-
Not interested on the new watch itself. But some of the software features look interesting, looking forward to come to the spartan line.
-
@alberto-yoldi I have the same opinion as you.
-
@alberto-yoldi the same here. In terms of design it’s descent looking, elegant yet to fragile for me (apart from formal meetings/suit & tie clothing occasions). Still pretty excited that it brings new functionalities that I’d love to see on Spartan (mainly wrist based HR series).
-
@alberto-yoldi However, my girlfriend already asks me to preorder
-
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Yes, girls love Suunto’s style!
-
I see this product for people who make indoor activities such as treadmill, spinning fitness, cardio, gym, etc and also want a beautiful daily watch.
-
@brad_olwin I’m convinced that Suunto 3 will have support for footpods like Stryd, Milestone or Runscribe and any that have bluetooth 4.x. And will permit that you can save the route having it paired with the smartphone. It will make sense for occasional activities.
-
@luís-pinto looks like it. From what I read around.
