      @dimitrios-kanellopoulos thanks for your very quick answer😀I said the next S9 but I wanted to say the replacement of the S9 with the current features + map. Don’t know the future name but only what is interesting to have soon (max 1year)…it’s only my opinion.

        Honestly, guys, I’m not sure why the obsession with the maps. I had Fenix 6x and never used it properly. I think the basic is to have correctly working route navigation with turns and WP or both, good pop-ups, good alert vibration or tone, etc. Then you don’t need the map, it’s too small anyway to see something.

          I agree that maps are generally unusable in such small screens, but, some basic map features could be included in the display, for example roads, trails, rivers etc. That could be helpful.

            @prenj maps can be usable if they are like the s7 + heatmaps.

            Zoom with pinch etc.

              I’ve used it quite a bit in the forrest near me when trying to explore trails I haven’t tried before. It’s a nice and simple way of figuring out if I’m still on said trail as most of them are on the map.

                    That’s the bunny.

                    (Is it even a thing in Greece? Or Someone Else’s Problem?)

                            For hiking in the mountains I’d still prefer paper map in most cases to get an overview. Of course I wouldn’t object to having them in the watch 😀

                              Map and compass should be considered essential regardless of the watches capabilities (depending on how well you know the area obviously).

                                I think we should avoid 9 in German right?

                                “Would you suggest my a Suunto watch?”
                                “9”
                                “Why don’t you?”

                                            @dimitrios-kanellopoulos I guess it’s hard to have new fresh ideas after some time, and 100 episodes is quite a bit.
