        @mountainchris Suunto should have left it up to choose how to turn on the screen light. “Touching with two fingers” was not very comfortable, but acceptable.

        i don’t have S9, but my Spartan work like this :
        1- Backlight = automode
        2- No standy backlight

        With this : the watch screen goes locked and dimmed in one minute or so. It stay like this all time i don’t interact with it.
        When external light is OK, i can read watch clearly, if not enough light or at night, i just have to press middle button once, and watch light up with my %light preset.
        That is it = it is almost a light button.

          @dimitrios-kanellopoulos Good morning! I apologize for my English, it is not my first language.
          There is no problem. I was talking about complicating the screen backlighting function. Why not just give the ability to turn on the screen by pressing one button?
          Backlighting is not always needed in the daytime. Turning on the screen backlight every time you press any button will drain the battery quickly.

            Guys, why make changes to the lighting function that worked fine as it is? I broke my brain.Why not just make the lighting with the push of a one button?
            As I understand it, Suunto will not make changes to the sport modes, but only add smart functions. This is very disappointing.

            Having the light come on with the push of a button is already working and maybe even the default setting on my S9B.
            Change is always a thing some people can easier get along with than others.
            The answer to the question why, probably is to have the software easier to maintain since the S9P added more features in regards of backlight.

            And your statement that there are no changes in sports is simply wrong. A new sport has been added (although I have no idea what it is 😉 ) and the new S+ feature is there as well, just to name 2 examples.

              These are not the sports modes that swimmers and triathletes expect. 😀

                maybe - I can only read and reply to what you write.
                Me as a triathlete as well would love to see triathlon mode in S7 😳

                  @stas-varazhbit hmmm. I am confused.

                  You don’t need to enable raise to wake. So pressing a button can light the screen. What’s the issue you are experiencing / thing chnaged ?

                    Мне как триатлонисту тоже хотелось бы увидеть в S7 режим триатлона.

                    But S7 won’t hold up even 1/2 IM.

                    I’ll get used to using the new firmware.Sad that Suunto went adventurous by cutting back on the multisport features. Good thing I didn’t sell the A3S.

                            Yes, it would. 5h battery is no issue at all. During bike the consumption is smaller anyway.
                            I usually do 1/2 IM or olympic distance. These are the only reasons now for me to keep my S9B…

                              I’d need closer to 20 hours battery on a 1/2 IM knowing my fitness 😂. I’d probably get picked up by medics before then mind.

                                  @stefan-kersting remember Windows 7 is not supported anymore by Suuntolink. You can still use it by forcing the update (download the zip and start the update manually), but it is a workaround.

                                          Yes i got it, but I don’t think the french sentence ‘’ Montres en version chinois traditionnel en Chine’’ means the same

                                            @zhang965 It is badly traslated, yes. Wondering how I would render it, maybe “Chinois avec aaractères traditionnels disponible pour les montres en version Chinoise”? Not entirely sure.
