People who jumped from 9PP to Race S?

@fv4500 Vertical 1 is discounted, so maybe thats also an option. It wasn’t for me, because of the weight. Race S is really lightweight for the size

@enriqueescoms Hi !
I not “directly” use the 9PP, but my wife does. And on my side I use SV1 and SRs.
For me you can consider the SRs as a mini SV1/2. Display is far better than S9pp, bigger, brighter of course with amoled. Maps on SRs are really awesome and are an absolute game changer compare to S9pp (screen resolution is great in comparison with SV)
Construction is lest builky (no sapphyre) but it’s still very good.
S9pp suffer is age and miss some late updates (like bip countdown and rep counter with structured workouts ; not implemented yet…I begin to doubt it will be).The things I “regret” comparing my SRs with SV/S9PP are linked to amoled /HW:
- I don’t like the crown
- no personnal battery modes (touchscreen navigation not possible in sports modes)
- no AOD unless big battery loss
- autonomy of SRs for daily use : HR and sleep tracking, with some exercice, backlight to low, AOD off and raise to wake ON, SPO2 ON, is a little under S9pp (in exercice battery life is excellent, better than S9pp).
For the rest, the SRs is nice, very confortable and I use it a lot as a daily watch
-
@VoiGAS thanks for the heads up. For similar price tags the Vertical 1 seems severly outdated compared with the Apex 4, feature wise. Thinking about it… For me, AMOLED is not an option.

What do you mean with that?
Suunto Race S

@fv4500 You are right, personally I would choose the Nomad if I would have to decide now.
-
@2b2bff so far with amoled watches you can navigate with touchscreen on map, but you can’t switch from a screen to another. You have to press the crown go from a screen to another.
With SV and S9pp you can unable touchscreen to navigate between screens (except to exit from map screen) -
@Tieutieu Really? That’s a shame, I use the touchscreen switch on my 9PP most of the time. (The climate is dry and I hardly sweat.)
-
@enriqueescoms unless I missed something, that’s still impossible yes. That’s one of the rare things I dislike on my SRs.
-
I’m the complete opposite, I would love to navigate the watch exclusively with buttons apart from dragging the map around. I’m used to this from Garmin…
-
Speaking for me - Crowns and AMOLED keep me away from upgrading.
AMOLED would be okay but only with maximum battery life.Most of the time I forget that there is touch too. Maybe because you always have to push a button before starting to use touch.
