Suunto 5

@suzzlo what about price difference between 5 and 7?

zhang965

I think Suunto 7, will be Spartan Sport evolution (sure you think same) and this model has 3 variants: Normal/Wrist/Baro

Non Wrist model makes no sense, so I think, we could see 4 models

Suunto 5 => Baro and Non Baro

Suunto 7 => Baro and Non Baro

Differences between 5 and 7 should come (from my perspective) in:

Design => based on SSS, no external antenna

Battery => battery between 5 and 9

Firstbeat => they could add Training Load, or other…

We will see

Why they add more firstbeat features to 7? If I followed the 3 5 9 logic, 7 should have less firstbeat features and 9 has non firstbeat features

suzzlo

@dulko79

S3 -> 200
S5 -> 300
S7 -> 450
S9 -> 600

makes sense?

zhang965

@suzzlo so S7 baro is upper than s9’s price?
S5 baro is upper than s7?

suzzlo

@zhang965 the S7 should have 8 Firstbeat features, since 5 has 6 (https://www.firstbeat.com/en/consumer-product/suunto/suunto-5/)

suzzlo

@zhang965 no idea, I’m just saying what makes sense to me, no info here, just hopes!

… or 18 features like Forerunner 945

Or a new model called suunto 18 with all of 18 firstbeat features?

@suzzlo 150 jump from 300 to 450 seems a bit steep for better materials, compass, better battery…unless more FB features are added to 7. What about release date?

It’s just a guess from suzzlo

suzzlo

@dulko79 If I can buy one S7 in black friday for less than 400€ I will be very happy

zhang965

@suzzlo a suunto 9 on Amazon is about 380 euros

dulko79

@suzzlo I agree .

dulko79

@zhang965 I know, we are all just guessing…rumors are fun

@suzzlo I would love to see a S5 Baro for the compactness of the S5.
But I agree with you in terms of range and price.
Can’t remember when the SSSWHRB was released

This is why S9 should have them immediately !!!

No,
we should keep the logic:
Suunto 3 has 18 firstbeats, suunto 5 has 9, suunto 7 has 3 and Suunto 9 has ZERO!

@silentvoyager I do believe OHR can work well for some of us, and don’t think it’s measuring the cadence. See below a list of runs I did with exactly the same cadence (154 spm), and you can see that the average HR (all measured with S9 baro OHR) is different for longer runs where I tend to be tired at the end, or for runs with some ascent (or when I had too many drinks the day before, but that is not shown in the table :))…
How would I get these results if OHR was locked on cadence?
