    bothered me I both couldnt delete something like golf

    now that you mention it… that was so annoying and I really hope that things like that are never going to happen with Suunto ✊

      @freeheeler Ya. I always wished I could pair everything down on my Garmin that was unnecessary to just the basic functions that I personally wanted, and many of the updated features weren’t for me. Then I thought ‘Hey, just buy a Suunto.’ I also was interested again in a Polar Grit X Pro but for some reason they dont do barometer functionality.

        By the way, probably the next Suunto watch which is currently being tested by François d’Haene will be much more comparable to the Fenix line: it’s supposed to have a bigger screen, maps, live tracking,…

            I heard some rumors as well, the reorganization will not be happened before end of this year. So Suunto potentially releases lots watches before that date

              @dmn23 that would be really tempting, given it is priced similarly to s9pp

                    I have used a Grit X Pro for some weeks.
                    the UI in the watch and app was not my taste, but more important: I really missed the vertical speed value

                        @Mff73 Any idea when that new watch would be launched? Within a few months or end of 2023?

                            makes me laugh - there is no need to delete anything. You just go in an remove the activity from your activity list. Golf maps you just ignore, unless you are absolutely desperate to save the 2 largest map regions on your watch and only have a 16GB model.
                            usually find a golf map update occurs as frequently as a map update - i.e. they tend to update at the same time.

                                  @dmn23 That’s one of the problems of Suunto. For years the watches weren’t very good at all. The Suunto9 Peak Pro was some better with the upgraded hardware.
                                  But the software isn’t updated very often and bugs appears longer than needed.
                                  It seems that Suunto is reinventing itself, but until that happens, we are left with watches that are average.

                                    Well…I vote for more updates but
                                    I’m not sure often update will fix more bugs or bring more bugs

                                        @Jamie-BG I did try to ignore the many updates to tons of things I didn’t use, and golf course map updates did kind of bug me that I couldn’t just say no thanks. After awhile seeing in the list of updates something like ‘Added profile and additional fix for jogging with baby stroller with twins while sipping coffee to account for extra wrist motion’ was just too dizzying to keep up to! 😜
