S9P review from a non-target audience
-
Bugs, features, and more.
For Watch:
The blood oxygen works weirdly, I tried it several times without results and thought it’s maybe a defaulted watch that I’ve just got, but suddenly, it shows 98%! Then it shows only about 80%…
Can we get the Training effect for Anaerobic as well (firstbeat)?
The Zombie notification is still up… (Suunto Dev works on it)
Why the EST VO2max has a big difference between S9B (68.2) and S9P(59.1)?
I still cannot understand the logic for rise to wake backlight, I see it turns on when I open my door, when I pick up my pen…just not when I want to see my watch.
Why it always ask me how I’m feeling after a move even though I turn off feeling?
For SuuntoApp,
Why we cannot set the user/HR information in the APP? It’s quite dumb to set it in every watch…
Can we get the Stride length in SuuntoApp?
And The synchronization of Suunto APP between two phones are weird… I have a main phone to synchronize the watch, but when I use another phone log in my SuuntoAPP with the same account, the sleep/steps/etc are partially synchronized.
Lift is the phone connected to my watch, right is the following phone, all training data is synchronized, but other information is not.
The Watch cannot connect to SuuntoLink anymore?
(To be continued) -
In memory of Movescount.com
SuuntoApp is pretty good now, I remember 1 year age, it seems SuuntoApp was just a synchronization APP, you only get basic data in this APP, however with later development from Suunto, SuuntoApp is now a completed training APP, we have all daily data in the APP and TrainingPeaks workload system. I don’t need another “fitness social network” anymore.
But I will miss Movescount.com where I got a lot of fun, watching my moves on a big screen is always a joyable moment, although SuuntoApp is quite awesome with my/any phone of nowadays.
Hope SuuntoApp will get a Web Interface after all.
SportTrack.com could be used as a web interface of SuuntoApp, you can log in with your SuuntoApp credential.

@zhang965 Your review is very short, or the links are missing:)
-
Nice. Re zombie notifs we are on it
-
@zhang965 FYI I always get (on S9B) 25h with OHR and 30h with HR Belt
-
@zhang965 re vo2max I think it’s due to the one having history and the other no. Both should align eventually.
-
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos While chasing zombies, could you also allow for acting on notifications? Like dismissing them on iPhone, and dismissing and notification actions on Android like delete for emails or snooze for calendar?

@nickk ai ai let’s not complicate it but let’s see what can be cooked
But don’t expect anything soon
I know that zombies are for sure contained under the umbrella
️ corp -
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos I don’t really expect that soon, but just wanted to leave it out there
It’s really a quality of life (daily wear) kind of situation. -
With S9P:
The GPS trace for my first run with S9P is amazing, I could not beg for more, I still notice some speed drop, but generally it’s perfect.Hi, Interested to know what GPS Combo you used?
I have tried GPS + Glonass: so so results - I get quite bad offset even though I run with watch face mostly facing the sky rather than facing the sideand GPS + Beidou: slightly better results for Northumberland UK - less offset noticed, very similar if not the same as S9B tracks
I know many variables / daily conditions can influence etc but still interested to know your sat combo used.
Many thanks -

Many thanksHave you tried GPS only?
I use GPS + Galileo

No! I haven’t or indeed the galileo combo, both of which I will try
Many thanks

@zhang965
nice summary
-
@nickk for sure.
-
@tonyg I think that the offset may be because of fused speed - as long as it stays constant until you change direction. But that’s just my hypothesis.
-
@łukasz-szmigiel interesting hypothesis; the offset does appear at random times after a 90 deg. turn, then sometimes corrects after another 90deg turn, not consistently; so may be coincident. My next run will be using Galileo combo, I will keep a closer eye on the offsets if any.
apologies @zhang965 for the slight hijack of your review. -
@tonyg I’ve observed this with previous firmware on S5 too (it hardly ever happens on current). I suspect that when running constantly if fusedspeed is at work, such offsets must happen in order to avoid discrepancies between pace and distance.
So when you turn and there’s an offset compared to your real location but you continue running, the offset will remain as correcting it would change pace.
I suspect there’s a certain speed and angle threshold for when it can be corrected.

Update a GPS test
-
Nice review!
Have you tested the OHR during an activity?
In the beginning I used my S9B without a HR belt and the HR always was 46-60bpm, but my HR was 135-140bpm.

Nope, I only use HR belt for sports…
