    @dulko79 To be fair, most (or maybe all) of the photos in his review are the lifestyle images supplied by Suunto, so they probably look more professional than a typical reviewer taking shots with his camera phone.

      @traileyes Sorry, not right, @Saketo-Nemo took his photos and used some of Suunto’s. To be fair. And he has the best photos.

        @bulkan Apologies for my mistake. I hadn’t sorted through them well enough to realize he had so many of his own shots. Sorry.

          @traileyes I remember he had beautiful photos also in S9P review. It did not come on my mind he could have taken them from Suunto, but also I don’t remember seeing the photos elsewhere.

              @tomas5 but wouldn’t that what you asking for actually be the S9 Peak (barometer, Saphire glass, etc.) I find it’s a good decision to offer a S9P like version of the S5, even if there are no real new hardware options. I don’t know if you ever wore such a light sportswatch, but I really like this, since I made the experience that especially wrist based HR readings are usually better with lighter watches (not to speak about wearing them while martial arts training, where heavier watches like the S9B are not suitable). And I really like the “normal” easily swappable band of the new S5 Peak against the bulky band of the old S5

                  @chrisa and BTW the GPS chipset is new, so is the HR sensor (both compared to the original S5). And the original S5 is still being supported.

                    @isazi oh thanks for the information - that sounds promising. Just read DC Raymaker’s review and he finds GPS and especially altitude data pretty accurate (like @Brad_Olwin also stated)

                      I find the OHR on the S5peak as good as the S9Peak or better. Obviously this will vary for individuals but it is far, far better than the old S5.

                        @chrisa S9P has blood oxigen, bigger battery, better water rating, and could be made from titanium, saphire glass etc. I don’t think that barometer is only benefit of S9 line up. But S5P are worst than S5. In S5 there is some kind of crystal glass and some polycarbon plastic. In S5P it is by specification just plastic “glass” and plastic body. Even buttons changed to plastic one. It has worst water proff rating. S9 has 100m, S5 has 50m but new S5P has only 30m. Lightweight is only real benefit here. But don’t understand 50-100€ higher price when specs are worst.
                        Even in times of ambit watch, there was A2R, A2 (with compass added), A2P (with baro added) but S5 and S5P don’t have compass too. So at least something could be better in S5P. Not just new fancy design.

                          @tomas5 but it has the same GPS chip, same straps - that’s cool too, right?

                            @tomas5 50€ to 100€ higher price? Compare to what? I don’t get it.

                              @markytarky compare to current S5 which has official price 249€ and are longterm in discount around 200€. S5P has official price around 300€.

                                  @dmytro strap is great, that is only think i didn’t like on ambit 2 and don’t like it too on S5. Don’t know about GPS performance but if it is better than on S5 than it is great because S5 has some problems with GPS while openwater swimming and in some hard conditions in hills.

                                    @tomas5 but that’s not the start price, is it? s5p will get firmware updates longer.
                                    If we’re comparing s5 to s5p, the latter has more to offer: longer in activity battery, compacter design, more gps options, better hr. Basically, only few things got downgraded: water resistance and buttons - I think it’s a good trade.

                                      @tomas5 not true, the original price was 329€, they adjusted it later on to 249€, so current model starts lower and they will lower it as well as they did with S9P titanium (from 699 to 629€).

                                        @dmytro well i don’t know about HR on S5P for me HR on wrist doesn’t work well on S5 so i use hr belt. As specification says, battery life is same, only added some endurance mode but it will have some 2min gps fix so it will not be much benefit. And in S5 with custom setting with lower GPS it is possible to get to around 70h estimate with disabled WHR so it is not much difference. And water resistance is much more important at least for me.

                                          @markytarky why should i care about price 3 years ago? I care about todays price. Even in spring 2021 i bought S5 from suunto for around 250€. And i never told that S5P initial price is higher than S5 inicial price.I just compare what is on market right now at this point.
