    @trail-cafe let’s be frank, some people are here to be cheerleaders for Suunto and others are here to be honest about the clear limitations of their products.

    So, you’re in fact saying that people here belongs to these 2 categories :
    1 - Blind fanboy
    2 - Truth-bearer unsatisfied tech-restricted honest guys

    A little bit restrictive, Isn’t it ?

      Perhaps not. You may be over-restrictive in your inference of @zrumlow’s restrictiveness.

      “Some” + “others” =/= “all” (necessarily). Could be “cheerleaders” + “honest [limiters]” + people inquiring about watch strap colors.

          @zrumlow @cosmecosta I am fine with SuuntoPlus for MY interval training. I can remember my workouts as they are not that complicated and, yes I do have to look at the time, I can set a zone by pace, power or HR. I have an A3P and used the interval workout feature but not as much as I thought I would…too much effort.

          What I really miss and wish would not have been lost.

          1. Workout plans in the watch as I used this every day.
          2. Training Plans. I wrote several that were highly utilized in MC
          3. Tags. I had a lot of tags.
            These are features that I am unhappy are gone and I doubt they will reappear. The workarounds are inferior and more or less nonexistent.

          So, as @Fenr1r states I am neither a blind fanboy or rabid complainer. You can look at my post history and clearly see that. So far, the features of other brands, many of whom I have tried do not raise the bar sufficiently for me to move on.

          PS. I was an early beta adopter of MC transitioning from the PC based Training Software and was very active on the first Suunto forum. Many of you may not know that existed. Back in the X9 and then T6 days.

              You think that planned workout won’t happen on SA?
              It’s really nice feature mostly S9 have already this with MC.

                  I’ve been asking for this and as a Field Tester I state this as a major missing feature. So far, I have no idea if this will be implemented, I miss it and if I had an inkling it was planned, I would be quite happy.

                    I fully agree with your list of missing features. Sincerely I was surprised that I cannot add a planned workout (my trainer sends me workout plan every two weeks). I was using this quite often.
                    Tags - totally agree.

                    One thing I would also admire could be the training load graph which on MC was based on Resting Time. I do not know why it was removed also from MC some time ago but something similar could be shown on SA or/and watch.

                      @Brad_Olwin One thing I really miss is the ability to turn on and off the sound alarm for intervals, Suunto plus and navigation before and during activity. (did not want sound on buttons and notification of messages)

                        I’d also like to add “customization of the pause screen”! Or “revert” to what the “old” watches like Ambit did.

                        I find it very disappointing that I can only see some default information (which I am usually not even interested in!). I would rather like to see for example the current altitude or the ascent.

                        After the last update it doesn’t even stay on the screen that I’ve navigated to (the only useful one of the “defaults” for me is “day time”), but always jumps back to the “activity time” (or whatever it is called). This is very annoying 😞

                        I no longer expect to be able to see all information (like it was possible with the Ambit3 for example) - but it would be great if the limited screens would be at least configurable.

                        It is also not very convenient that routing is not available in the “pause” mode…

                          Hello,
                          Do you think it’s possible to implement a function equivalent to fuel wise from Polar on the suunto S9 or suunto plus?

                            @Ad1411 my understanding of fuelwise is it provides a distance or time based reminder to drink or eat right? Back in the olden days I would just set reminders based on intervals/auto-laps on my Garmin FR210 and remember to drink every split and eat every other.

                              @zrumlow fuel wise Consideres your heart rate when you should feed carbohydrates. Is a really good function that Polar has implemented well.

                                Hi!
                                Would it be possible to include weather forecast information in the S9, like the Polar Grit X?

                                  That’s a great feature and a beautiful watch face. 👍

                                          Does the Suunto 9 has a mode of “light always on” like the ambit 2/3?
