Just a wild idea…Suunto should start an exchange program
Return your “old” S9 and receive the new version with a discount.

Yes I thought about it this morning

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos don’t put ideas in my head I would get all the special editions.

@hristijan-petreski there is a Mercedes edition out there, didn’t know a driver needs a sports watch.

@isazi When the S5 came out, I stated if it had a barometer it would be my watch of choice, smaller, lighter and accurate. But I have to have a barometer because vertical matters more than distance to me.

All in all this is very close to release. So if you like guys, try to be a little subtle. We will go over all this in detail officially and from official testers perspective.

The air is heating up…

[isazi]

@brad_olwin I also would not use a watch without a barometer.

I plan to upgrade to S9P, just a question - is the sS9P successor to S9B? Is this watch a new flagship model?

[Richard Thygesen]

It seems to get to many unnecessary functions. Better to have a few stable functions like in the present S9.

you wont need a peak for the peaks? More suited

I need S9 Peak for Training Peaks calendar and intervals workout integration.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos do we need to wait for hours, days or weeks?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@theo-lakerveld I cannot disclose this but I would not say weeks

@dušan-ković
S9B has just been thoroughly revised in design. Not the umpteenth special series based on the same graphics but a watch in effect cleaner in the line, minimal and lighter. After a few days the X-ALPS version came out. This makes me think that the S9B will be alongside the S9P for a long time to come. And if so, it would also make sense. Two diameters are better than one

[surfboomerang]

@saketo-nemo That’s just what I don’t understand yet.
If everything on the S9 Peak is the same or better then the current S9 Baro and they both are still sold, why whould a new buyer go for the S9 Baro instead of the Peak?

[isazi]

@surfboomerang because it’s larger and maybe cheaper?

[EzioAuditore]

@surfboomerang Apparently they will have more options too choose from. Tastes among people are different so some may find the normal 9 more attractive, some will find the peak. Price is there too. E.g.: fenix has so many editions that you need phd to distinguish them

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@surfboomerang larger ? People like designs as well…

[Dušan Ković]

@saketo-nemo hmmm, but S9P has probably all S9B features + different GPS chip, different HR sensor, BT 5.0, fast charge, etc. In my eyes it is next model. Why would new user buy B instead of P if P is better hardware to start with. Im just hoping suunto will not publish some next flagship S11 or whatever after some of us buy S9P

[Saketo Nemo]

@surfboomerang
Exact. Bigger, cheaper, more proven, more … who knows what else. Without knowing S9P it is impossible to understand its differences with S9B. We’ll see
