      The real issue will be to find the time to get our S7 recharged, with all these new day&night tracking functionalities! 😃

        @massimiliano-mirannalti 😆 I don’t think it’ll be an issue. The watch charges very fast so it can be done either right before bedtime in the evening or just after waking up in the morning. It’s only about an hour in charge.

          @jantikainen I usually just charge mine after a workout. By the time I’ve finished my shower and got fully dressed I’ve usually recovered enough battery.

            @jantikainen Having owned quite a lot of smartwatches I’m quite impressed how fast it charges. Plesent supprice.

              I’m very disappointed about the suunto 7 battery.

              Dissapointed? It has the best battery of any WearOS device (the TicWatch Pro 3 is a close second in my opinion).

              I can get easy over 70 hours of life if not tracking GPS activities. Considering the functionality of the watch, that is absolutely mega!

              With 24hr continuous HR that will obviously drop, but it still eclipse any other WearOS device.

              Sleep as Android is a notorious battery hog, so I would also expect the Suunto sleep tracking to be less of a drain than this.

              And for those worried about when and how to charge it, my solution is top charge when I shower, shave, and brush my teeth in the morning.
              With my current levels of activity and with how fast the S7 charges (which is mega fast!) I only need to do this every two days!

              The S7 is a battery beast!

                    @olymay I totally agree, except the Sleep as Android part. I use it and the battery consumption is around 2%/ hour

                      @jantikainen I haven’t used SaA for a while, as it used to eat roughly 50% battery in a 7 hour sleep. So either the app has been updated, or it simoply works better on the S7.

                      Either way, the lack of proper automatic sleep detection and what I think is a horrible UI are still enough for me to steer clear.

                      I am really looking forward to comparing the S7 sleep tracking with the Withings Sleep Analyser which is what I currently use.

                        Been looking at that device. It’s a shame that we are still in a situation where different health device makers don’t really work all that well together. I remember thinking Google Fit was going to be the solution to that problem 😆 .

                          @aleksander-h It’s frighteningly clever in how it works! I have a Simba mattress which has memory foam in it, and the analyser sits underneath this and can detect my heart rate THROUGH the mattress!!! I’ve no idea how it works but it does!!! It is also medically approved to detect sleep apnea (I was worried I had this but this device says otherwise 🙂 ) as well as detecting snoring patterns.

                          It’s also nice not to have to wear something on my wrist.

                          The only downside to it, is that you can’t take it with you. As I am starting to once again plan some trips away later in the year, it will be nice to have a sleep tracker that goes with me 🙂

                            That is the big one for me. Still not sure if I’m going to use the S7 for sleep tracking. When I sleep, I sleep COMPLETELY naked, wrist included 😆 .

                              I did a hike today until the battery completely died and the watch powered off automatically.

                              After I charged the watch, I check and the activity was saved but some data is missing.

                              The distance, time, HR and GPS course were saved correctly but details like ascent, descent, steps, calories, TSS, PTE, EPOC are missing.

                              Also, in the diary of the Suunto app on the watch there is only the total duration and the auto laps.
                              It tries to load the graphs with the HR and pace but imediatly disappear.

                              Is this a normal behavior for when the watch shutdown during an activity or it was a bug ?
                              Just to know for the future to manually save the activity before runs out of battery completely.

                                @steff I had the same happen earlier this week and can confirm that steps, ascent, etc is not showing in the app.

                                  First few days with Suunto 7. Noticed I left the daily HR monitor running and it’s reading a HR when I’m not wearing it. The Daily Activity window will show the HR fluctuating as it lays on the bed next to me. Anyone else with this issue? Defective?

                                    @808hiker did it have sensor face down? If I leave with the glass towards the table, the sensor turns off right away.

                                      @aeroild that’s a bummer.
                                      Maybe some metrics are calculated and stored only after the activity is manually saved.

                                      From all of those the most important are ascent and descent, especially for hiking.

                                      On all other sports watches I had if the watch powered off during an activity it saved all the metrics until that point…

                                        @steff Yeah, it’s a bummer that metrics like ascent and descent aren’t saved or calculated by the app. If you log into http://quantified-self.io or connect a service like www.runalyze.com you will get the ascent and descent also on the auto saved activities.

                                          @steff I don’t know exactly about the S7, but for other Suunto watches some computed metrics are only saved at the end. So if your watch crashes or turns off, they are not added to the header file of your activity.

                                            @808hiker The watch has a sensor to detect when it is on the wrist or not, the HR should shut off quickly after you take the watch off. Try a soft reset/reboot.
