On the SV will the update include :
The new Watch face?Yes as far as I remember
Live heart rate display?
What do you mean? I do not think there is a HR complication available yet for any watch
Alarms during interval training?
No change
Napping detection?
No

in the widget - yes. this has been there already
Alarms during interval training?
don’t think so
Napping detection?
no. this is a tech licensing issue, not a programming one.
-
Does the new OHR sensor has support for temperature sensing? Like newer Apple Watches, Garmin’s, Oura,… to possibly detect illness?
-
@wmichi not that I am aware of, it is just a different sensor

@isazi
Thanks for your response
It’s a real shame not to have live heart rate (as a complication) on a Watch face. Asked for a long time
The same goes for nap detection. Why not put the license on the SV?
For alarms during interval training, it’s really important to have it.
That said, this update seems really interesting and a step in the right direction. Can’t wait to update my watch. -

@Frederick-Rochette Like @isazi has previously said, the update to come brings lots of improvements, but not everything that everyone wishes. Still according to him, there is more to come with next updates.
Like you I’d be very happy to see those 2 simple improvements with native interval training : rep/step counter, and bip (5sec ?) before start of next rep/step. Let’s hope it will come with another update.
But on the other way I’m much more happy with climbing guidance that is arriving.

Excellent watch
Beats the hell out of FR165/255 and many other watches.
It’ll be selling a lot. -

@Egika no, you confused the cause and the consequence!

@isazi GREAT NEWS
-
quick one: did the lugs of the race S have rounded angles (like the Ocean) I found the one of the Race a bit sharp and as Ocean change this a bit I wonder to know if RaceS also benefit of this ?
-
@Josaiplu for me Ocean ans Race are the same
But Race S is smaller and lighter, so it may feel more comfortable.Watch: Suunto Vertical Ti

@isazi thanks
my wife does not feel the s9pp uncomfortable so I guess she will enjoy the race sAs the race s as plastics lugs I was thinking they could be less « sharp »
-
@Josaiplu they are not sharp, but my Race (not S) is not sharp either. S9PP is sharper I would say.

@isazi you re right regarding s9pp
Also did the improvements on the fw responsiveness reduce the raise to wake delay a little bit ? It is currently almost a second between the movement and the display being visible, still the same on the s ?
-
@isazi and other testers, can you comment on the changes to navigation and turn-by-turn? I see the turn notifications have shrunk, but what about the timing? Is it still the same that the next turn is notified while at the current turn?
