Suunto Spark

[Ze Stuart]

@dreamer_ same. Between the lack of data integration with the headphones and the watch, audio problems, and software problems, back they go.

I really don’t understand why companies invest all the time to make a product like this, and then half-arse it. Same with the fancy swimming headphones.

@Ze-Stuart it’s really a pity. I really hope they can push an update soon to improve the user experience.

Is anyone using them for work? I’d be curious to try, how is the mic quality and the connection to a MacBook?

@Francesco-Pagano I finally returned them. The product it is not worth (at all) with the current firmware. Software is very poor in my opinion for a product of this price .
I used the spark at work and the experience is ok but in my opinion I bought the device for sports, not for the office. And that’s the thing.
If Suunto considers to fix the issues in the Q2 update, I’ll buy them again.

@Francesco-Pagano I got mine just two weeks ago.
Have attended some calls already. It was just normal as expected.
Have used them for running and just listening to podcasts. They have a great sound quality and they are light and comfortable.

On a bike ride, it did not work too well, as the head wind ruins the sound quite a lot.

I can’t seem able to find update notes. Could you post a shot?
Thanks!

@dreamer_ succesfully updated to 1.0.4.3 fw, but no release notes. Can’t tell so far what’s been updated.

Thanks for the answer!!

There is nothing about the firmware update notes yet. I’d be interesting if someone could keep us updated with the changes or testings.

I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one that wants to know how this product grows with firmware updates @egika

[Egika]

@dreamer_ i would like to know myself
Sorry, have no notes on this one…

Same here. I updated to firmware 1.0.4.3, but I can’t find any release notes. Looks like it might just be a bug fix and stability update.

I finally received mine and use them on a run yesterday for the first time. I noticed a bug: at first I could adjust the volume with the touch I had set up (triple tap), but after some time this stopped working; I had media controls on my watch, too, and when I chose the volume option nothing happened.
