speculations and rumours about upcoming Suunto watches

@altcmd 48.8mm diameter. Bigger than 9PP.
-
@altcmd but smaller than s9b
-
@DMytro would be good if the display is the same size though.
-
@el2thek true! Certainly it must be bigger than s9pp
-
The question of maps seems to be answered.
-
Do you think the new Suunto Vertical will be a high-end model?
Or should we wait for the Suunto 10? -
@Ultrawalker I’d bet on high end model.
-
@Ultrawalker The Highendmodel will be the Vertical Peak Pro
-
@DMytro I think the 48.8 is the bezel size and if I am not mistaken the 50 mm of S9Baro is a bit beyond the bezel so I expect same size as the S9Baro.
-
@StefanoMorgan Once released and naming is confirmed I would love some explanation behind the naming strategy by some Suunto affiliates (if any)
-
@Hristijan-Petreski maybe, I don’t know if e.g. buttons are included in measurement. But in principle I wouldn’t mind retaining the screen size while shirking the overall watch profile.

Wouldn’t bet the same ; high model will have maps for sure, and the packaging leaks don’t show maps…
(One of my other expectation is that the strap will be 24mm)I hope I’m wrong and you’re right…because if I’m right, that means I’ll have to wait more to change my S9B !!
-
@Tieutieu Maybe the new chip will be able to handle the computing power needed so it will come in future upgrade (3.x.x) and the older watches will stay in 2.x.x.
Or maybe the packaging is not final and these are devices sent to test, review, etc…
But based on previous timing we will soon know it all in 10-14 days hopefully. May the 4th is nice date
-
@Tieutieu we’ll see soon enough. I actually hope they’ll retain 22mm, since it’s much more popular strap width.

Garmin and Coros watches with maps also don’t show maps on the box. So lack of that doesn’t indicate anything if you ask me.

Based on the image I’ve seen I suspect it will have a 22mm strap.

Right! The package is “clean” and no other functions are named. So everything is possible…
I expect a high end model.

Fair enough ! But my packaging reference was the suunto’s only watch with maps so far AKA S7, which shows maps

what will I do with my whole collection of 24mm strap I use with my S9B !!

Well, S7 packaging was showing heat maps as the watch face. Not quite the same as showing off in-training map capability.

@DMytro Also very fair enought !! Can’t wait anymore !! Please Suunto release our pain !!
