New one looks “cheap”. Old one more “clear” and less agressive.

This is a massive update. Kudos Suunto!

I don’t disagree, but I think Suunto has chosen to design for clarity in environments outside of urban areas. That is, trails and landscape features should be easily distinguishable in less densely mapped areas. It’s pretty difficult to design a map style that works well in both urban and rural areas. Perhaps they could design a “city” map style in the future that’s more clear in urban environments.

@herlas on Android I don’t have these options. Maybe the App will update!

Scratch that, they have now appeared.

Excellent update

Just for the record (luckily my life does not depend on it):
Sleep tracking failed after I applied the update. Will do a soft reset and see…

When it comes to software, my Race really is an adventure watch. but I like adventure.

It stays in custom battery mode at activity start even if i set same parameters as in performance mode. How can i set it to choose performance mode battery by default ?

Is baro sensitivity also updated? I wend bouldering (gym) yesterday and it counted 48m. I always put my watch in pocket when I climb, so there is more than 1m difference when I reach the top and my feet are rarely more than 3m above ground. It normaly counts 10-12m for the session. Graph looks ok. If this is not a mistake, then great

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Likarnik no it was not changed

[Likarnik]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos weird, I hope my sensor is not faulty

[Pavlas]

@duffman19 I don’t think the maps were any less clear before the update. ’ I personally was very happy with the maps. I don’t understand this change and am thinking about downgrading for the first time. This really irritates me. Sorry.
Of course I commend the other improvements and thank you for them!

@Likarnik I started the new fw review tests yesterday. After the update, my altitude, which was 100 m, became 104 m. My other reviews and tests continue.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@safari the calibration resets afaik after update / reboot

[Cédric]

I suppose there’s still no interval counter, countdown, or the ability to data affich on the map?

[safari]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I tried doing a soft reset and then using the “automatic altitude change” feature. I will check again. I have observed an increase in battery consumption now and I am testing it.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@safari Dont expect the altitude calibration to be precice in <5m . Its around the 10-15m ballpark. 4m is nothing for altitude calibrations

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

Hm still no update for me.

[safari]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Ok

@pavel.samokha What happens if I am not on my regular WIFI…
Will I not receive AGPS updates via BLUETOOTH?

[pavel.samokha]

@Danny-poleg WiFi A-GPS sync is an addition, not a replacement for BLE A-GPS sync
