speculations and rumours about upcoming Suunto watches
-
@mikekoski490 the 9PP is not forgotten, it has a substantial update coming (May? June?) to the firmware for what I know, and if there is a new watch coming I would bet that all features that are not hardware dependent will also come to the 9PP.

@isazi what about us poor Peak neighbours? Any hardware updates in the pipeline? It’s been 6 months since anything? The app improvements have been brilliant, especially the Suunto Coach feature, but would love to know if you can get more out of the older watches.
Equipment: Suunto Race Titanium

@Steven-Limmer I think at some point it was romoured that older watches should get at least one more update. But it’s been a while, and maybe plans got changed. Usually FW updates go live slightly after new watch gets announced. So we’ll find out soon enough.
-
@Steven-Limmer older watches should also get updates, for sure. As far as I know all watches we have have updates in the pipeline. Of course, newer watches are more capable and get more features.

Spartan and Ambit series also?

@isazi I absolutely LOVE my Peak - it’s the perfect size, and as a long term Suunto user, I’m happy with it. But it would be nice to have improved brightness / menu / power.
I could be very tempted with this new watch, depending on the feature-set, or wait out for the inevitable Suunto 7 upgrade (hopefully with external sensor compatibility; my actual Suunto watch…)

@André-Faria I’m a massive fan of the 9P, I moved from the 9 for it. So comfortable on the wrist, amazing for 24/7 wear. Plus its aesthetically pleasing
-
@Steven-Limmer I also have a peak but doesn’t really need more functions. I don’t use all that is in the watch now but we all have different needs.
-
@Richard-Thygesen if I had a magic wand, I’d ask for better screen brightness, and running power.
The ultimate watch for me would be the body and features of Peak Pro, with an AMOLED screen…
-
Really enjoyed reading all the excitement and thoughts here… I can’t wait until the 9th of May also
-
@MarcW 9 or 10?
-
Get the feeling Marc is toying with us.
-
@altcmd May 9th @10:00
-
@Ketoohs right! For some reason I thought it was 10 May at 10 CET.
-
@altcmd Got my business calendar set to do-not-disturb, so no one dares to call a meeting then…
-
@Ketoohs lol. Same here. Super busy at 11am in Helsinki

It seems that after some questioning, we have all adopted the size of the S9P. I think the size of the SUUNTO Vertical will be 50mm but I could be wrong… so it will be much bigger than the S9P but that seems necessary to have a good navigation. I hope it will be very light though with a bigger (internal) screen size and with better definition, maybe AMOLED. Apart from what is already present in the S9PP and navigation, I would like the following features: full sleep and recovery tracking / HRV test, fitness test / multiple S+ at the same time / NGP as data field / internal music / NFC
And above all a nice titanium watch that doesn’t scratch…
Will see! -
@Frederick-Rochette not everybody adopted the S9p size.I did not, even if I do like its small weight and confort ; and totally understand those who like it ! My wife has it, she loves it ! Regarding what we will probably get next week, hard to imagine maps on a small screen ! Size should also enable much better battery capacity.
Suunto’s devices at home :
Vertical titanium solar
Suunto Race S
S9pp titanium sand
Suunto Wing
S9B titanium Ambassador edition, A3P, X6 -
@MarcW looking forward your video review

The smaller size is one of the reasons why I never bought the S9P or S9PP, probably why I’m so eager for this new model to drop
