      @surfboomerang I know 😄 just thinking…as that would be a huge disappointment for me. The size for me was and is just perfect. I cannot imagine they will make a smaller watch. Or well, if they do, they better keep also this “big” version

          @saketo-nemo I see your point, it is just that new S9Bs (2021) got me confused. Release same watch with different design really close before new watch (S9P) release. Also, all the info we got is from Chinese page, although it looks legit, could be faked. But also, if that info is correct, we have watch that has all hardware components updated and modernized. On paper it is better than S9B but we will see when it gets released. It is just weird to release new S9B and than release new better watch. Maybe to empty S9B parts stockpile with just new case design. Who knows… Just analyzing.

            If it’s another generation but still in the same “S” line and the “old” devices are not marked as EOL - this is great news for everybody. One ecosystem (SA + “S” devices), more sizes and materials to choose from and the latest inclusion of S7 to the party. That is, if after S9P release “old” devices suddenly won’t go EOL (but that would be rather weird move). If the firmware is unified and there aren’t any super-dramatic changes to the platform that make old hardware obsolete, there’s nothing bad in going for S9B rather than S9P if one’s into larger watch overall.

                        @dimitrios-kanellopoulos that’s actually great! There are not a lot of devices on the market that isn’t eol 3 years after release.

                          @łukasz-szmigiel just one possible catch, at some point older hardware will have difficulties catching up with new features, e.g. the S9B does not have SPO2 hardware.

                          It does not mean the baro is eol though.

                            @isazi I thought so too btw. Probably most of updates will be bug fixes and s+ stuff, which is shared by s9p

                              I don’t think that was meant. The point is that the lack of specific hardware (spo2) cannot be circumvented with software development.

                                @saketo-nemo yes and because for regular s9 a lot of stuff was done already, it might boil down to the things I mentioned.
                                But we’ll have to see 🙂

                                  Until that sad moment, let’s call it “The Spartan Event Horizon”*, where the FW just has to move on to cater to the new kid’s HW differences. (As @Saketo-Nemo just wrote.)

                                        I agree with these points especially with @isazi and @Saketo-Nemo, given the release of brand new S9 baro designs and lighter titanium, one would expect development to continue. In fact, given the “new watch” that is coming has S9 for a name, one would expect the watch to be similar to the S9baro. Hopefully the firmware for both watches would be developed together and continue until an S9 upgrade is developed. Don’t forget that Suunto has reliably been the first to integrate new technology, first with wrist GPS I believe in a watch-sized device (X9), first with FirstBeat (T6), first with long battery life and FusedAlti (Ambit), first with intelligent battery management and first with Sony chip (S9b), first with WearOS co-processor use for sports (S7). We had 3 iterations of Ambits that evolved but were not the radical switch from T6 to Ambit or from Ambit to Spartan.
                                        I would not expect a radical change with a watch having the S9 for a name. That would be reserved for the S10, 11 or 12 (or whatever the name becomes).

                                          @brad_olwin I believe Suunto was also the first with support for apps on the original Ambit and the first with a high-res screen on the Spartan series capable of 7 data fields and a lap table during activities.

                                            suunto was also the only watch maker and analysis platform supporter out of one hand (that I found…) to read ascent rate in meters per hour for specific selected sections of an activity…

                                            I hope this is coming back one nice sunny and cloudless day in the future ✊
