      @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos

      Logical explanation of button issues. (Although I’m sure @TELE-HO will happily do all the sleeve/glove obstruction/functionality testing you could possibly want. As rigorously and tirelessly as a machine. While TRX-ing. Time on hands, so to speak.)

      And I’m willing to believe in money-making as an occasional corporate priority, no matter how outlandish that might seem.

      What I was really asking, and heading way OT, was whether you could answer:

      In normal (pre-/post-viral) conditions, how does any new-to-Suunto feature like the cited “climb pro” get on that list? (E.g.: that feature from interpolating Garmin sales & climb pro introduction? Requests on another channel?)

        @Michał-Muszyński that exists. It’s called fieldtesting and many people are contributing all over the world.

        Its not open and I am not managing this area.

        Its not open because it’s almost a “real” job todo so. Meaning that it’s not like install SW -> Enjoy.

        There are surveys that take 1h to be filled , tests and procedures to follow etc.

          @mountainChris I still have to try Beidou, and haven’t been in the Alps for over a month, although I had great results skiing with GPS+Galileo in February. You can play with this tool if you want to check which satellites are up in your area.

            There is RELEASE NOTE on suunto 3 support webpage , and don’t receive any update from suuntolink.
            My watch is suunto 3 fitness, so the update is only for S9/S5/S3 ,no S3 fitness?

                @isazi thanks for this website. In Poland BeiDou definitely win, no less than 10-11 satellites

                  @mountainChris @tomahawk5000 you may also want to look at this one too. And remember, the number of satellites, although very important, is not everything.

                    I understand, he writes to you, knowing that you are closer to Suunto than we all are. My goal is not to criticize or attack you. I know you can do as much as your position in the company allows.
                    They are thinking about something that allows you to implement functions that do not require great commitment. And they cause users to see continuous development. Suunto currently has very slow updates. I think people are impatient now and would like to see quick results. You know very well that many people left the competition because of slow development.

                            @Michał-Rudzki completely wrong. Take a look to the youber who works in Suunto, he runs with 3 watches everyday.

                              @mountainChris hmmm, not for me…the green line is “gps only” the other one is “gps+beidou”, but i think it really depends on the location…

                                @clemens-renzl so should I understand that additional satellites interfere instead of help?

                                  This release was for example targeted to be bigger, but things went out due to no space for testing

                                  does that mean that there should soon be other new features when we do “normal” activities again (quickly I hope)?

                                    @Rob33 If you are asking if there will be an extra release in the short term I think. no.

                                    Now all is moved to next Q

                                      @mountainChris I’d say:

                                      If you’re going for a workout in difficult terrain, ie. urban canyon or dense forest / mountains - go with GNSS with most satellites available (atm. Beidou).

                                      If you’re going for a workout in mostly open terrain and want best precision possible - go with Galileo.

                                      If you’re going for a workout that requires best efficiency in regards to battery life - go with GPS only.

                                      S9PP 2.40.38

                                        @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I completely agree. 🙂 But… I know it has been a topic many times, but if a feature is tested well on the S9 for instance, and it doesn’t rely on any hardware feature that’s specific to the S9, it could be released for the Spartan line as well and all the ‘whining’ about forgotten Spartan lineup would stop 🙂

All tests are made by developers on desk nothing more. Why do I think that? it’s pretty simple when software getting so simple bugs it obvious that no one test that.

                                            I am one of those field testers…I wear two watches every day and often 3. Sometimes we have specific areas to test. We do this because we want to help Suunto be the best and the testing requires a substantial amount of our “free” time. We do not get paid. I have used Suunto since 1998 and owned many watches. For me Suunto has been the most reliable and works. The hardware and software are carefully tested and iMHO a lot of thought goes into design of both. I have been through other software transitions with Suunto and was a beta user of MC. I owned and used an SSU, purchasing the watch when it was introduced.
                                            I have 6600h and 43000 km mostly on Suunto watches. I have lost only two or three exercises in that time so Suunto watches rarely fail me.

                                            Not trying to attack you but your statements are factually incorrect and perhaps you might think of how they make others feel before writing them.
