@J-Crosby I have completely different feelings. To record recreational activities, yes. Unfortunately, with dynamic exercises, MTB riding, intervals, the bar is the only solution.

Agreed and I think Suunto is aware of this issue. Hopefully we can get a solution of some sort.

@Brad_Olwin What is “bar” as in “bar is the only solution”
It’s strange how experience with OHR varies so my per person and per activity. Must be all the variables of strap positioning, tightness, skin color, hair, blood circulation in arms etc.
Of all the OHR I’ve tried incl AW S5, Garmin Fenix 6X, Polar, the Suunto 7 is by far the best implementation, on a par with Polars arm band OHR. Has worked fine with dynamic exercise including HIIT, free weights and tabata hill running intervals.

@J-Crosby "bar” - heart rate belts

S7 and S9 Yesterday trip on the road. Speed, heart rate, GPS track can be written that almost the same, altitude is not good. Battery consumption around 8-10% per hour.
It starts looking pretty good. I must point out that the hand on the road makes almost no moves. The watch is quite tightly clamped on the wrist which gives slight discomfort.

I have good results too for road cycling and mountain biking with the S7.
But for walking and kayaking I have very bad experiences. If the arm is moving up and down and to both sides the S7 has a problem with the GPS track and while kayaking with the heart rate too.
This should be fixed. With my Stratos 3 there are no problems at all and the data are awesome.

@pilleus My experience with kayaking is that the GPS is excellent. My wrist HR is plausible, but I admit that I tested against the Polar H10 ECG chest strap only when cycling. The problem with kayaking: I have to put my Suunto 7 under my drysuit and start exercise tracking before closing my drysuit. This gives some weird GPS signal while I am in my club’s boat house.

Today a test with the S7 and Ghostracer during a walk. It seems that the GPS track is smoother compared to the recording with the Suunto S7 app. No wobbling on the track and the ascent is precise too.
-
@pilleus
What was battery consumption using gostracer per hour? -
@DavorP I forgot to check the state of the battery before the activity, mea culpa. I will do it the next time.
-
Does anyone know how to force S7 updates. The watch has not been updated so far.
-
@Michał-Muszyński
For mine i musted do a factory reset…
Then updates…
Other get normally -
@giulio I did it yesterday and nothing
-
I was not getting the update either. I fully charged the watch and tried again.
It worked at the first attempt.
Not sure it really made a difference but it is worth a try
-
Hi guys,
If you have not gotten the update could you check the back of your device and tell me the build it’s written there?
One person had a distributor model , bought second hand, so I hope this is not the case with you as well.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Hi,mine does get update only with a factory reset?
I have try many Times always on charger and wi fi (that i have now and working)
What do you mean?
That us we have a second hand watch?
I tell you serial number o build number? -
The build it s written there…
What?
The number? -
after the SN on the back…
For example mine (that is a fieldtest device) is DVT3
