I’d have to agree in what is written blow, Suunto indeed was very clear that the Ocean would be subject to a slower software release schedule. For me, that actually was one of the reasons I bought the Ocean.
My D6i is on its last legs, and having seen what the Software updates did to my Vertical, I though, the Ocean would be a good bet. I was hoping that they are not fiddling with things so much. But I was wrong.
You need to be careful what you wish for. A Suunto Software update may not necessarily make things better. They can either cause a certain battery drain, or update your watch with features and Software not to your liking.
My Ocean is now at V2.36.18 and my Vertical is at V2.33.16.Any versions after that, doe not suit me.
For me, I very much question on where Suunto is going with their Software/Firmware. My first Suunto was the D6i followed by the first Ambit, II, III and so on.
Buying the next or a new Suunto Model was not a question for me. But now I am at a point where I go, hmmm…
