Thanks dev team for the update!
After the update, the sync with SA is coming back to normal (not stuck during “preparing sync”). We have to wait few days to confirm because an update it is almost like a reset, no?
I have already done a walk activity to test the FW.
I haven’t noticed high heart rate at the begining of the activity.A small remark, i’m not a big fan of the new position of GPS settings (under “power saving”) just because it’s one click more to access it. But the remark is not there, if GPS settings have been moved under “power saving” why the Glonass still remain at the first level? it should be under the same menu as it uses much more power.

@Tim4c GLonass is a system-wide setting that affects all sports modes. Over there it just shortcuts to it. However I hope it goes away and settles to navigation options like on the S9.
Regarding the GPS under powersaving its a alignment with the S9 were also has it there. Its to help non advanced users not to put the GPS to GOOD thinking its GOOD but its more about powersaving.
In short this comes from stats and surveys.

@Tim4c But there is always room for improvements so all feedback is welcome
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Ok, Thanks and understood
-
@Tim4c The s9 has glonass on the navigation settings and users coming from the SSU are searching for it.
If I can also add some techie reasons that is because on SSU/Spartans GLonass can be changed on the runtime while on the S9 (currently ) only when the chip is fired up (initialized)
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Does GLONASS affect battery time on the S9 much?
-
@paradize not much at all. I think on a 100% it should be 2-3h damage if glonass is on.
Sometimes it could even improve (in cases when the watch strugles) but we took the safe side on the estimates -
By waiting this update, i was waiting the S9 watchface. I find it’s a really nice one.
But i was expected something a bit different. I give you a picture below with the comparison of what are currently displayed and what i would like…

@Tim4c good points let me tranfer those

@Tim4c
Well done Tim, I agree with you -
I would like also that clock hands are behind values to be more readable!

@suzzlo Why not

Good job!
What is “Sleep data insights”?
-
@dimangi you can see the details of the prev days of sleep (before you could only see the current)
-
I’ve just seen that instant HR monitor is locking on HR faster, around 10 sec.

@Tim4c I totally agree with you to see more/different data on the watch screen like and also no duplicate information like twice battery level or sunset information. I think the default watch face you pictured looks nice, but I noticed another flaw: the hour hand is pretty thick. Not a really big problem at some hours of the day, but between 11:00 and 13:00 it can become really tough to read the data field as the color of the text is the same as the hour hand and the text becomes invisible.
