    I see that there were any new threads in Spartan section, it looks like people are tired of this. Two months I wrote a mail to support asking about New Firmware and the possibility of getting new features or at least getting bug fix. What I am getting is as below:

    "We are sorry to get you disappointed. Please know that we are still working for new feature’s to be added to our Spartan watches. The last update for Spartan watches only includes performance enhancements. Our developers are working to add new feature’s for all watches for customers to enjoy.

    We are committed on giving our customer’s the best experience on using the watch and we will continuously improve our product by updating watch software. Stay tune for new update.

    Have a great weekend and enjoy your activities."

    Tha was 2 Nov 2019, now it’s march and nothing happened… so you can connect the dots.

      New features?
      For Spartan?
      It would be great, but I don’t think so anymore.

        I think, the best choice for Suunto is to add SuuntoPlus to the Spartan line.

          Perfect idea, but this is YOUR ideja, not of Suunto. My idea is to put new feature on Ambit 2 line also 😉 I have owned all Suunto watches from 2012. These are the facts: Two years for improvement, another year for bugs fixes… for all watches…Period. Maybe some critical bug after 3 years, like date or something like that…Spartan is from 2016 so calculate

            The grass is not greener with Garmin or Polar.
            I’m owner of 945 and Vantage V. And for me Suunto has better hardware.

              @Mi_chael in terms o hardware Suunto 9 > Vantage.
              GPS accuracy also S9>Vantage.
              When it comes to software, it is difficult for me to compare them because despite the similarity, they are two different products for two different customers.

                Yes, you’re right.
                Polar has more features for training and recovery analysis.

                    @Mi_chael I would agree that Suunto has better hardware (from what I’ve read, never owned the others), but that’s a moot point if the software can’t do what you need it to - makes an expensive paperweight.

                        An update is coming for the S.
                        Increase the distance with the S Series.
                        Any alms for the Spartans?
                        For example: Solve the problem of intervals (when there are several blocks they are not shown in the app)
                        😬

                              SSU only exists to Suunto make money from those for sale.
                              as for updates, it is completely set aside

                              very very badly Suunto

                                      Just moved from Suunto some months ago. I’m here to check if Suunto has a new release. Done.

                                        I sold my Spartan ultra yesterday.

                                        For me, it’s how the story ends

                                          Since I bought the Spartan, I only saw features being taken away from it (calendar, POI, …). I’m outraged and dissapointed in the decission Suunto is taken. I still believe they have great hardware, but the software is cripling it. Even now they’re deciding to go “mainstream” with a crowd having lower demands, they won’t accept unfinished/underdevelopped software on a brand new watch.

                                          In short, I bought a garmin watch for my girlfriends birthday. Chances are I’ll be making the switch in the future. That’s the result of not supporting my older Suunto Ambit 3S, killing movescount (not replacing it) and downgrading my new Suunto spartan sport whr.
