If there’s a patent, this is more than a rumour.

@dreamer_ FCC filing is saying something about AI Coach?
-
@Gunnar why would it? FCC is about tests needed if a device emits EMR. This is entirely about WiFi, BT and other radio signals and has nothing to do with features or functions.

No. That information was cached by Google from Suunto’s official site.

Patents are only hardware related, not software things.

@Egika perhaps my post was misunderstood. The discussion was about AI Coach. You said that @dreamer_ should not take rumours for granted and @dreamer_ posted a link to the FCC filing and wrote that it is more than rumours. Might be misunderstandings.
I am not sure if one can trust the “cached Google sites”, can be faked or whatever. So everything about AI Coach is for me just rumour. Can be true or not. Time will tell. -
@Gunnar AI coach is a rumor based on smth that was temporary on Suunto website, FCC filling is a different thing and it is for hardware, based on that we know Run 2, Race 3 and Race 3S is most likely coming.

@matram agree.
Personally, I don’t see anything wrong with Suunto deciding to release watches every year if it helps the company improve its financial numbers. After all, Garmin has been doing this for a long time, and now Amazfit is doing it too. Perhaps the 2 year wait does not have any sense if you maintain the older devices. This is also common in other devices like smartphones.
The key should also be to maintain support for older devices for a period of time.
For example, Polar provides 5 years of support:

And Coros is atill updating the Apex 2 Pro with everything, even their new Climb screens (watch released in 2022):

The faster pace you release new devices, the more devices you have to support… That is the problem about releasing devices in shorter intervals.

Or perhaps the revenue is a lot more than the cost of maintaining an additional device. That is something that only Suunto will know…
