A truly unfortunate purchase
-
People learn how barometric altimeters work and are upset that the measurements change with time and motion. Edition 2137.
-
@Łukasz-Szmigiel Suunto used to have an option: altimeter/barometer mode.
Now there’s some kind of crude automation - living in a relatively flat place, with normal movement, pressure changes are often interpreted as altitude changes.
Why such pseudo-improvements, which instead of helping, causes new problems? -
@BrunoH you typed “awesome battery life”… and up until a year ago it was true… I charged the watch every 10-14 days with all the sensors active. But since October it doesn’t last more than 4-5 days for me (even without recording activity). Haven’t you experienced any problems with battery life after the latest updates?

@t-Dox I was giving a general reason why MIPS displays are still being used, since the original complaint was about bad colors. Bright colored amoled displays are more power hungry.
I don’t have 9PP and my Vertical’s battery usage is almost normal. Sorry, I wasn’t aware how bad it is with 9PP users these days. But that’s a SW issue which might get resolved, but the bland colors still remain.
-
@t-Dox which fw version are you using?
-
@Łukasz-Szmigiel hi, i’m using the 2.39.34
-
@t-Dox you have a battery drain on this version?
-
@Łukasz-Szmigiel yes, exactly!
-
@t-Dox that’s strange. I had it in the previous version - the unfortunate one that was downgraded. But it went all back to normal after downgrade. Try the new, just released beta, let’s hope it’ll fix your battery drain.
S9PP 2.40.44
-
@Łukasz-Szmigiel I’m also having battery drain, but it seems that the new beta doesn’t include any form of fix (at least not mentionned in the changelog), so not really hopeful
-
@Łukasz-Szmigiel Hi, do you mean version 2.40.38? I’ll try to install it right away, thanks for the info. I hadn’t seen it was released yet (today)
