    As far as solar goes - I think it might make sense on something like a bike computer, where you have a larger surface for the solar panel, but also constant exposure to sunlight due to its static position.
    With watches you lose both of these advantages - I think any benefit from the solar charging is going to be marginal and it wouldn’t make sense for Suunto to invest resources in something, I would consider mostly gimmick.

      @Ivan-Vasilev DCRainmakers tests of the solar variants of Garmin’s bike computer does not show significant battery loadings from the solar power. The only watch that benefits of it is the Instinct solar as far as I know.

      Anyone can judge if solar is an advantage or not. I think it’s a nice to have, but battery itself is definitely enough for my needs (Enduro 2).

      I use GPS with automatic settings, so it switches between single- and multi-band depending on the signal quality which should end up somewhere between 70-80h of GPS recording…never tested it 😅

        If there will be solar charging, it does not necessarily mean “solar like others do it”…

                Hello all!!

                I only ask for a little respect with the leaks or else I will delete the post… a lot of work and a lot of enthusiasm from a lot of people who are playing behind this… so please wait for official news and respect the work of so many people.

                Have a nice day!!

                        So the rule is: no leaks. No pictures, no names, no links, just discuss what you look for in a new watch, what you don’t want, what you expect.

                            Is this a new rule? With the 9 peak pro there were links etc. well before it was released.

                              @el2thek I think there is no need for further questions and answers on this. We just stick to it. Be happy to be able to catch a glimpse already

                                    Like little kids making trouble and parents keep telling dont do this, dont do that but kids dont listen 😄 But I understand rules, it is bussiness strategy and it involves Suunto staff’s effort and knowledge. I also think most people are happy for Suunto brand for bringing something new to the market and sharing leaks and speculating are part of excitement before the release. No harm is meant on purpose.

                                        Will various models/versions and colors be presented?
                                        For example, one model/version with maps, other model without… 🤔

                                        And, what will be the price range? Assuming current prices of S9PP, S9P ans S9B, new Suunto would be in Fénix 7, discounted Epix and Apex Pro 2 price range so competence will be high.

                                        Suunto T3D, Suunto Spartan Trainer, Suunto Spartan Ultra (retired), Suunto 9 Baro (retired), Suunto 9 Peak (retired), Suunto Vertical Titanium Solar, Suunto Race S.

                                          @el2thek I know, in the past only pictures were deleted, but let’s just be positive. If Suunto is going to release a new watch, you all know users of this forum are going to get first hand reviews on release day.
