      Well, I’m opening this topic because some of spartan users made complains in S series update topic,

      I’m a spartan user as well,

      Could we make complains about spartan update in this topic to make the main S series update topic less noisy ?

                I assume, that the UI improvements will come to the Spartans as well, since a large part of the software are common among the Spartans and S3/5/9. I hope for VO2max as well to close the gap between the A3 line and the Spartan. I don’t know if the GPS improvements to the S9 are thanks to the Sony GPS firmware update or there are tweaks in the main watch software as well. It may determine whether we can expect something similar for the Spartans.
                It would be nice if Suunto gave some hint. The frustration level is rising…

                  @halajos no reason to expect a serious spartan update that adds exciting new features, or am i missing something? Is there anything in suunto actions up to the present to suggest otherwise?
                  Maybe a few bug fixes. Language support, etc.

                      The GPS will not come to Spartan for sure, because the chip maker has been acquired by another company, this GPS chip has glonass support as well, but Suunto cannot get the newer firmware from the maker.

                            the difficulty is, if the spartan line gets the firstbeats features after users’ complains, maybe the ambit3 users will begin complains as well,

                            hold-on, ambit3 has already got the firstbeats…

                              honestly, all I want is a semi-reliable battery meter. If Suunto can’t pull that off, I will look elsewhere next time around.

                                @zhang965 I think so: the update of the products should be done as long as the hardware allows it … and I believe that from this point of view there is no real limit for the SSU. If Suunto won’t release an update for SSU, I see only one reason for this: a purely commercial policy to get new models to buy

                                  Suunto should open back Movescount website for better data analysis…😂 😂 😂 😇

                                    @Valerio-Portesi I can fiddle a bit here and say that this is not commercial.

                                    Any SW affiliated person should know that supporting any variant with the same SW still needs testing + tweking + building pipelines let aside when the HW is not the same.

                                    Your SSU HW you might think its identical to the S9 but it isn’t.

                                    I dont really know the reason why Spartans did not get an update. If I did I would just boldy state it. I am only speculating here. Dont eat me 😄

                                      BTW I am also surprised about this (no spartan update) and I got the news while on my vacation (last week to today).

                                      (Today I am working again for 1 day and will be off till 5nov that I finish moving to NL) .

                                        @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos don’t worry I don’t hate you 🙂
                                        I agree in part, they are not identical but in my opinion except for the cardio wrist sensor, the GPS chip and the larger battery (with dedicated management software) they look (for me) identical. I do not believe that companies change everything from one model to another, even for reasons of production cost (it is worth starting from the platform you have)
                                        Probably is just a delay to test the software for SUU and we are worrying about without real reason. let’s hope it’s so!

                                          @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Since you are a beta tester (afaik), don’t you know if there has been FWs for Spartans in beta testing?
                                          That could bring back the hope 🙂
