    the way I like to wear my watch doesn’t help for good OHR reading. I know that a better watch with better OHR will improve, but still isn’t up to my verity sense 🙈 I simply don’t like sitting a watch too tight.
    I like my watch like I like my ski bindings: relatively loose at some parts 😂 😉

      @freeheeler still, I’d suggest you give it a shot. It is tight but doesn’t feel like it.

          The OHR doesn‘t work on tattoed sleeves since the last update. Really terrible SW-work from suunto. I will give them one last chance with the next update….or i will start a new adventure with polar

              OHR is terrible for me also, in running in particular. It tends to read around 20/30 bpm more. I have tried many times with different positions, configurations… No success. If I wear my wife’s Apple Watch, the readings are almost perfect.

                  @Efejota yes S9B useless most of the time, especially if it gets slightly colder or during running… S9P little better, but still makes me use smart sensor. Tried Garmins new 4th gen. This was for me complete different thing… Very reliable. But don’t want a Garmin watch (altitude accuracy, app, style, love SUUNTO brand…). Let’s see if S9PPro gets updated sensor…

                      This is going a bit off-topic 😄

                      I obviously don’t know if there is a watch coming or not, but if there is one, many people in this forum will be able to answer all questions after release.

                        I thought the same… but since there is no S9PP, we could discuss anything here 😉

                            @freeheeler Exactly, do you know what the market share of Suunto in the wearables industry?

                            I am guessing it’s minuscule and probably crying out for a cash injection for future development. Competition is good but it’s a bit too much for Suunto to handle the Chinese influx of wearable offering shit loads of features for half the cost of any Suunto watch……

                              I don’t expect that Suunto wants to grow into a market where people are chasing low quality for low cost.
                              althletes are willing to pay for a reliable product. There are few competitors that seriously manage to catch up with Suunto. Of course you’ll find tonns of watches that offer various functions. I didn’t try any of them. E.g. my sons new fitbit didn’t last very long while his second hand S3 still works.
                              I expect that I get what I pay for 🙂

                                @freeheeler yeah, but some things are still missing at Suunto if it is targeted to serious athletes. For example multiple sensors, this bothers me a lot. 1 power meter on bike, 1 as smart trainer, bike pod (cadence and speed sensor) on road and MTB, H10 as primary HR belt (because multiple BT connections and ANT+) and Suunto HR belt when swimming. A lot of sensors, but only 1 for each type allowed… Not sure how stryd interferes with bike power meter? I think this is not a rare case. And strava live segments, I like to race myself on some hills, but I never know if I am quicker than last time until I got home… Maybe I could push for those 5s at the end of 20min climb if I knew that I was so close. I’m far from pro, but I like to move every day, sometimes hard, sometimes slow. I care about progress in SA, resting HR, sleep quality and I don’t care about calories burned and steps in a day.

                                  @Likarnik let’s see if the new suunto will support multiple sensors.
                                  As for strava: the new beta just revield suunto store for the various apps (also from 3d parties). Maybe strava segments or its analog will come eventually.

                                    @DMytro hope so, this could be the only reason for me to upgrade from current S9P

                                      @Likarnik why upgrade if your watch still works anyways ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
                                      Older watches as S9/s5 also support suunto store and thus will be future proof to some degree.

                                        @Likarnik I think that everboby has their needs. I can’t care less about sleep quality or rest HR but I care a little bit more about burned calories (not much). I agree with you that regarding connectivity Suunto is way behind.

                                        Regarding Strava Live Segments, do you trust strava segments? On saturday my running partner and I run a downhill (less than 4 minutes segment), he was at least 10 seconds faster than me (we both started at the same time, without pause, we both use a S9B and both tracks are identical) eventually Strava says that I am 1 second faster than him, and as this case I can count more than 10. If you really want to know if you are faster the lap button is your friend not Strava, even more in a 20 minutes uphill.

                                          @DMytro if new watch has some new futures that I don’t need (like depth for snorkeling) I will not upgrade. Also battery life is not a problem (100km ultra trail goes fine, for 100miles I can charge between - fast charging in comparison to S9B), but connectivity (pairing and unpairing) is a hassle for me.

                                          @cosme-costa sure, everybody has their own needs. But we were talking about ‘serious’ athletes who (I assume) care about these things. I’m semi serious 😄 but I find those things useful. Yesterday I had quite long bike ride for me and my resting HR was higher than normal. I’ll take it easy today. But I feel ok. And sometimes I think I had a hard workout, but next day I am feeling good and resting HR is also normal. I take other things in consideration also, how many times daughter woke me up during night, how many beers I had if any and so on… More data more fun 🙂 For strava segments I trust them as long GPS data is ok, but I only race myself so I don’t have any experiences like yours. Before strava I had a chalkboard and I had to manually write down my ‘starred segments’ 😄
