Suunto 9 baro - GPS track not accurate

[johann.fuehrer]

Galileo GPS Service is down since 12.7. On ALL satellites, maybe this is the reason…

yeah the timing was not ok

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos

To be honest i made a mistake by keeping this watch.
a run on a sunny day:

If you don’t fix your issues people will move to garmin.

The heart rate avg is shown 116 on image but on the running details is shown 161.

this is not professional, looks like a startup app.

very disappointed…

@florin2528 Hi florin I am sad for this and I am not sure what to say, as that is not my experience. I can help with a refund perhaps so in this case PM me.

The HR btw its not the AVG its the one at the start you can move the finger on the chart and its changes to the one on the map etc.

@florin2528 Also Galileo Satellites are down at. Just saying

I would prefer that Suunto to solve this issues and i see here a product management issue.

• Suunto implemented performance mode, but all corners are cut. what is the customer winning?
  this? I was doing a nice turning with a round at the end.
  

I had in 2004(and still working) a Forerunner 101, and I used for paragliding, and doing thermals i was doing circles with a diameter of 20-30 m and was visible on the track afterwards, Landing and take off was very accurate. It was seeing maximum 12 satellites and showing the level of signal for each of it. GPS accuracy <15 meters.

Now if i’m doing a round with S9 it’s not visible at all with 1s performance.
And yes, i was expecting a better performance than 15 years ago.

you have to rethink the product.

Kind Regards,
Florin

P.S.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
I was using the watch in all my runs or rides and I didn’t found any other deviation, the GPS was accurate.
It seems that in conditions with low signal or in the city S9 ‘might’ get more interferences than other watches.

this topic can be closed.
Thanks for all support,

@silentvoyager
the distance was always higher than what I got from phone with runtastic.
but when running with friends having ambit2 or garmin fenix5 I noticed that on distances there were not high differences, but on altitude yes.
I was setting S9 to get altitude from barometer and they were taking the altitude from GPS.
I had 50-60m differences on 800m total altitude gain.

I don’t know which one is more accurate or if it’s good or bad.

cheers,
Florin
