Ambit 3 Peak: purchase suggestion
-
Hello,
I’m after for a replacement of my almost dead Ambit 1.
I’ve found an Ambit 3 Peak at a sporting goods store for a really good price. I’ve read that digital transistion for old models is almost finished so soon I will be able to manage the watch without much troubles via Suunto App/Suunto Link.
Thoughts? Thank you! -
@g-q , I’d wait for few more days until next SuuntoLink update to test how this actually plays out, planned release is November 30th.
-
@margusl ok, thanks!
-
@margusl I couldn’t miss that deal so a few days later I’ve bought it. Right now I’ve tried to change everything I could via SL and… well amazing! Even more surprising is that the planned routes are synced via bt. Thanks Suunto!
-
Glad you like it

Though you might want to check that bit again… this time keep the watch away from the cable

eh eh too much meat on the BBQ :)… great anyway though!
BTW welcome back the altitude profile in the planned routes! -
@g-q Hmm if I’m not wrong there’s a problem with synced routes.
I’ve planned a route with SA and synced it with the watch. So far so good.
Then if I disable the route in the SA and I sync the watch again the route is not removed from it.Has anybody tried this?
-
@g-q reported the same behaviour here not long ago.

I would say no, the watch is good, application is really bad
-
I would say yes, if you have a basic use of the watch (no Suunto apps) and if you always have access to a laptop to sync routes, settings, … since we still cannot do that through SA.
Otherwise I would say no.

for basic use I would spend 15-50$ and would get better watch (like casio etc) …this watch was >350eur and I expect that I get what I pay…SA is bullsh… and it was from beginning

According to you
-
Yes and I repeat that again, (or you can prof it worked without any bug for any watch beside of ambit 3)… and according to all ppl which have opened any post here having problems, so please do not ignore this.
Sad that you having time to work on “commercial issues and comments” but not on SA issues…I have opened two other posts maybe you and devs are also so fast and taking care about bugs and get the sh… fixed
-
@jasmin-klipic I’ve owned a A1 and it’s been a great watch. I considered the A3P a valid choice for my needs… and now I’ve tried SL4… well, I’m really satified because I can do everything I did with the A1. Ok some hiccups but they will be fixed soon I guess. Using both SA and SL4 is not a problem at all.
As said the purchase has been a big deal! -

I do not have an Ambit, SA works very well for the S series.

“Ok some hiccups but they will be fixed soon I guess”
no they will not…some of issues are not new, and looking to the past of dev history, devs either do not care of A3P or they do not have enough man power. I have 3 of A3P and despite of that that I love this watch, you can trust me…applications was never OK…my current issue is that after some time not using watch (wearing) day or two…SA is not able to connect any more to the watch…just reinstall helps…how cool is that

well not sure what gives you a right to comment…based on WHAT, I have 3 of them…and as IT guy I have not just opinion as user but also as professional, and experience since > 5 Y

What?
I see you are moderator…I have opened 3 posts about issues with SA SL4 …so far no reaction/replay on them…but when I say… SA is garbage then I got within a minute some response .WHAT? -

I have the right to do whatever I want, mr IT guy. Or do you want me to ask you permission mr IT guy?
Or do you want to see my CV? It’s online
You said “SA is bullsh… and it was from beginning”, it is a general statement, unless you meant that in your opinion “SA is bullsh… and it was from beginning” and other people can enjoy it, and use it, and maybe even like it.I see you are moderator…I have opened 3 posts about issues with SA SL4 …so far no reaction/replay on them…but when I say… SA is garbage then I got within a minute some response
.WHAT?As a moderator I keep track of spamming, that’s it. For the rest, I can comment on what I want as everyone else. I do not comment on your other posts because I do not have an Ambit so cannot help you.
Moderators are just users voted as moderators by other users in this same forum. We are not Suunto. -

the only problem with SL4 I’ve had so far is an issue when synchronizing planned routes that are not removed from the watch if they’re disabled from SA. With the A1 I have never had a problem in all these years using MC
