@cosmecosta in regards to this we are bringing more FW updates and yes there are a lot of issues mentioned here recognized and fixed already.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos said in Suunto 9 with the recent GPS firmware was among least accurate GPS watches in today's 25K trail race:

I’ve never doubted
-
Just for the info, I am running 2 FW’s ahead and expect this week a new one with Beidou as well.
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos happy running
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
great info, I’ll store my cable in the backpack
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos interesting, is Suunto the first vendor to add Beidou compatibility? I’ve always been curious about the system, they have 47 working satellites and seem to always be visible
-
@isazi I think COROS is the first todo so with their latest (Dec) update (or Jan dont remember well)
I think Suunto was the first to power up that chip and add Galileo support.
From my tests with COROS it has improved track quality (using BEIDOU) and from other feedback I have seen.
I would love to provide comparisons once the FW is a bit steady, promised later this week (for testers). (Which could also be delayed due to Sony).

@isazi
…please don’t mind me asking… is it basically possible to use beidou standalone? -
@isazi For the reference , as a Galileo enthousiast, the continuous unreliability of the constellation for me, it has proved worse than Glonass. I still use it, but would really like to
A) EU FIX it , it is still problematic
b) See some real improvement of tracks with BEIDOU -
This post is deleted! -
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos same here, I love Galileo and would love to see it thrive, but man it fails horribly at times
-
@TELE-HO I don’t think any of those can be atm used as standalones. BEIDOU does not have good coverage in my area at least. Yes it has a few sats though.
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos power consumption is similar to gps+glo or gps+gal?
-
@isazi yeah exactly. Some times I am like woooohooo. Look at this smoothness, and some other times -> Offset of 100m like wtf. I run with 3 S9 different constellations 10cm apart from each arm and you can clearly see who fucked up (which system)
-
@Maryn Good question. I dont know. For QZSS for example the battery damage is 0 , for Gali more, and for glonass less than Gali
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos based on your experience which is more reliable? Only GPS?
-
@Maryn atm not sure. I will come back with test results. Dont want to give false hopes.
In theory GPS + GLO = Better and have not seen anything strage tbh
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos ok, understood but better than GPS standalone?
-
ist there a good website that shows satellite coverage with the various systems and for a selectable region?
Thx!
