Missing sleep phases
-
Recently I’ve started using a Suunto Vertical again, and I’ve noticed that during sleep tracking it seems like the different sleep stages are no longer being measured correctly. I also have a Vertical 2, and on that device this works fine. Is this a known bug with the Vertical?

@Robbin053 This is not a bug, Vertical 1 does not have sleep stage analysis, except deep sleep.

Ah okay, my mistake—I thought the original Vertical had the same sleep tracking as the Vertical 2.

As a matter of fact it means that VS has at least two sleep stage analysis: deep sleep and everything other than deep sleep:)

@Ars-Vitae Ik begrijp niet waarom Suunto het slaapgedeelte zo beperkt op de Vertical. Ik heb het horloge indertijd 550 euro betaald en voor dat geld mogen toch wel alle slaapfases vermeld worden. Tegenwoordig kan een goedkope Chinees horloge dit al perfect voor minder dan 100 euro.
Dus Suunto doe een firmware update en maak dit mogelijk aub.

@Philip I think it was mentioned somewhere that the sleep tracking is part of an ‘external’ agreement with a 3rd party provider of the metrics (this was true for all the watches prior to the Race). Now all the watches have an in house metrics. I might be speculating but if the agreement between parties has some cancellation clause that is not in favor of Suunto it is very difficult to cancel the agreement and just replace it with the in house.
What is now seen as a disadvantage, once we lived in world where you would outsource some functionality so other companies would benefit and share the wins. After recent years that competition is non-healthy and big companies buy out smaller ones and use their portfolio to put pressure on others we live to see the results
(Just my thought - it might be wrong)
