      @Brad_Olwin You are, of course, right about the compasses (I have a couple), dive computers and earlier luxury watches. As I mentioned in a reply to @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos, you’ll be fine so long as Suunto’s definition of “adventure” contains yours. But they have withdrawn features supporting other “adventures” than ultras. No reason to think it would happen tomorrow but you do good work keeping your profile high. If the S7 represents a success beyond the level of prior luxury niche sales and Suunto finds itself busier on the line, who knows?

        @Brad_Olwin or @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos : does S7 have intervals similar to Spartan and S series? What about workout / intensity targets? Much obliged.

          Can the Suunto watch app be used on other WearOS devices?

            @NickK There is a Running Interval Mode but no automatic intervals as yet. Three weeks before release.

              all the time the powesaving on

              do you still have the pretty watch face, access to / update of google fit (step counter & moving time), access to the Suunto WearOS tiles with summary of activities, and can you still play music with powersaving = ON?
              And I assume you need to remove the powersaving when you want to start an activity, download maps or sync with SA.
              If that’s correct, I would definitely use the S7 like that!

                  it would be absurd if that were the case, so I would say no.

                      @jean-william-cousin if I undersatand the question correct:

                      You have access to all system functions when recording, and all the google fit stuff (watchfaces / tiles) etc.

                      When powersaving is on there is only a cool watchface showing this one 5f26deb8-a3a0-484a-8717-1234cb2cd94d-image.png

                        @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos ok, clear. I guess that would be a bit too extreme for me 🙂
                        I thought powersaving mode was only stopping wifi / bluetooth connections but you would still have the possibility to see the heatmap watchface, the google fit tiles etc…
                        –> I mixed up powersaving mode with airplane mode. Have you already tested all long the battery last in airplane mode, assuming a “standard” frequence of waking up of the screen?

                            in theory it could, but most probably wont work due to the firmware versions of the HW drivers that are propertiary (GOOGLE/Qualcomm/Suunto)

                              Hello, Suunto family. Do any of you know if the upcoming 7 will allow .gpx route imports, route planning, etc? Thanks!

                                    will suunto publish a roadmap of future updates as did with spartan family? Sensors connectivity, route guidance and import between other may be basic for a watch like this so I feel like having a deja-vu (yes I paid for the original suunto spartan ultra years ago)

                                        Avec tout l’historique que Gérald a avec la marque Suunto. Et après avoir lu ses critiques sur la Vantage V et la Vertix, je trouve qu’il reste objectif. Ce qui n’est pas toujours le cas du plus médiatique Ray. Même si GarminRay avait été très critique sur l´écosystème de Garmin.

                                          @DmitryKo @Luís-Pinto @NickK For me, I would (and am) use this as a daily watch, then use the S9 for SkiMo and long exercises. I think 8-10h GPS from the S7 is possible. Although 12 is the specification we’re not quite there yet. I did a 5.5h run last weekend and was able to use the watch the entire day without charging. Why would
                                          I do this, screen is amazing and maps are great. Now to get SA to have multi watch support.

                                          Cool story bro, nice to hear that you can afford to think about spending over $1k on sport watches. Most people don’t and most people aren’t prepared to pay $500 for a smart/half-sport watch.

                                          All this smells like another repeated Spartan launch … your watch will get better over time, except it actually won’t do it fast enough and you will pay a premium to Suunto to be their test crash dummy.
                                          Honestly, it looks like a good watch, but as many have said before me, not for the athletes - where is the external sensor support (cycling power/cadence meters, HR belts, …) and the same story without sport mode customisation as with the Spartans at the start … no thank you, not falling for that one again.
                                          Besides that, cramming in an outdated power hungry SOC, coupled with a power hungry display and I am sure no software voodoo can save this thing from being battery drained in less than a day with smart features on and training for an hour.
                                          I hope they sell a lot of these to the instagram chicks so they can make something better next year. Oh wait, instagram chicks use iPhones, I totally forgot.

                                          SHUT UP LEGS!

                                            I don’t know if anyone noticed this particular paragraph from Suunto 7 guide which shows just how much power hungry the display and CPU is:

                                            Taking a new route? The Suunto 7 can keep going for up to 7 hours during outdoor training with GPS and maps, assuming the watch map is on for 10 seconds once every 3 minutes.

                                            So think about this. 10 seconds once every 3 minutes is just over 5% of time. So using map on S7 just 5% of the time almost halves the battery life while using GPS. That means - forget about really following a navigation route with this watch. You’d have to constantly go out of navigation screen to save the battery and the watch would still be dead much sooner.
