    @becco981 no for sure the watch is closer to the wrist and will be less exposed to scratches than the bulkier S9BTi, and the screen is sapphire cristal

      Moved to 9P from 9B some days ago.
      First impression is that is realy smaller. To my little wirst it size better.
      It feel a premium watch when you wear it and you look less an explorer 🤣 you realy can wear it every day. I did it with my 9B but sometimes it wasn’t confortable under sweats or shirts.

      As it look very small in comparaison with the 9B i was a little bit affraid with the readablity of the screen during my trail. What a surprise, smallest screen but better definition to me so it is realy easy to read your screen during an activity. I use the 5 field display as with my 9B and it’s fine.

      The only default i can find for this first half week is the colors of the watchfaces. I’d like it to be more Ā« powerfull Ā». They look too pastel

        Hi @chrisc92,

        your OHR measurements seem to good to be true. In this video the OHR sensor doesn’t perform that well

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0xYbvZztIA

        Do you have any thoughts why the OHR sensor might be off for the tests done in the video? It would be really great if we could get rid of the chest belts.

        Thank you very much!

        Matthias

          @matthias220841 I can confirm the testresult from @chrisc92.
          I used to run with a belt all the time. I tried OHR a couple of times with the S9B but the results weren’t OK for me.

          With the S9P the sensor was almost spot-on so I ditched the belt. The first run I did, the results were bad at first, but when I tightened the strap one hole, the readings were incredible stable and accurate.

            @matthias220841 nothing too good to be true, the OHR of the peak is the best I’ve used so far. It was actually better than the Polar OH1 in few occasions in my tests.

              @surfboomerang thank you for your reply!

              I also have the S9B, and the OHR is for the garbage bin. If the good OHR sensor results on the S9P are firm, it would be a reason for me to upgrade…

                @matthias220841 Keep in mind that OHR accuracy can vary for people. Place on the wrist, skin type, tattoos etc can influence the result.

                Your mileage may vary šŸ˜‰

                    @surfboomerang oh true yes, I just sold my S9B I had minor paint scratches on the bezel but the scratches stopped at the sapphire glass šŸ™‚

                      @matthias220841 i looked at the video carefully which confirms good results in run activity but Not in bike (indoor and outdoor)

                      for my bike rides I have no such good results I think there is some tuning and filters to apply into the firmware but the lifeQ sensor has proven his ability to report accurate HR measures.

                        @chrisc92 for bike I have better results not wearing it like for running, i.e. lower on the wrist and not as tight.

                            @chrisc92 I got 9 Peak Ti last Friday.
                            Today I accidentally scrubbed the nightstand (made of plastic) and the titanium ring got scratched a lot (see photo). I’m very disappointed šŸ˜ž

                            I can’t imagine what will happen when I’ll bring it with me doing climbing 🐶

                              @becco981 don’t do that!! It’s a lesson every tech inclined climber learns the quickest - watch and climbing don’t do well together. Just attach it to your harness, ideally in some cloth pouch to protect from dust and chalk, and use an HR belt.

                                @Гима-Š¼ŠµŠ»ŃŒŠ½ŠøŃ‡ŠµŠ½ŠŗŠ¾ yes, of course I avoid climbing wearing the watch but it happened with the S9 Baro Ti that it crashed on the rocks without any damage, both on the titanium ring and on the sapphire glass.
                                The 9 Peak has been scratched by a light scrub on a plastic surface!

                                  @becco981 I looked up hardness of Titanium and it’s supposed to be a relatively soft metall. But it’s often improved by applying a coating. Was your previous watch a coated version or not?
                                  Btw steel is more scratch resistant that titanium, but you’ll have to pay with extra weight for that.

                                    @Гима-Š¼ŠµŠ»ŃŒŠ½ŠøŃ‡ŠµŠ½ŠŗŠ¾ the old 9 Baro Ti was black, I don’t know if it was a covering. Thanks for information about titanium, it makes sense. I’m just negatively surprised that at the first ā€œincidentā€ a 700€ watch got damaged.

                                        @becco981 black is not ā€œnaturalā€ color of titanium, so our investigation has reached its end.
                                        Now ā€œbuilt as tough as youā€ moto for the s9 series sounds funny XD
