speculations and rumours about upcoming Suunto watches

@jasoncuddy
To me it looks more like “Battery mode”
-
@sartoric You know what, that makes a lot more sense.
-
So since we are speculating
what do you think the internal memory will be? Will it fit more regions if maps are supported? -
@Hristijan-Petreski good question…probably large enough for further evolutions !
I was wondering : and if map were also added to S9pp afterall ??
The range would be awesome :- big screen with maps => new watch to come
- big screen without maps => S9b
- small screen with maps => S9pp
- small screen without maps => S9p
That would explain why « new » S9b was recently added (black titanium version) ?
This is pure speculation indeed !
-
@Tieutieu unfortunately S9PP does not have enough memory to store maps
Watch: Suunto Vertical Ti

@isazi if maps are the only difference and other functions are the same, that would be great.
-
@dulko79 I think some more added features would be more than welcome. 5krunner is hinting a superb GPS accuracy…

I wasn’t able to find the information of memory avalaible on S9pp, but I tought it was unfortunatly so !
Suunto’s devices at home :
Vertical titanium solar
Suunto Race S
S9pp titanium sand
Suunto Wing
S9B titanium Ambassador edition, A3P, X6 -
@isazi Any hint or speculation if the rest of the internals are upgraded (enough for maps, etc.) or same as s9pp?
-
@vlado nice…
-
@Tieutieu maps would need memory in GB size (like 16/32/64GB or so) to store some regions.
I am very sure, that S9PP does not have this capacity…t6, S6, Elementum Terra, Ambit 3 Sapphire, Spartan Ultra Copper, Traverse Alpha, S7 Graphite LE, S9B Ambassador, S9P Granite Blue Titanium, S9PP Titanium Sand, Vertical All Black, Race Titanium Charcoal,
Race S All Black - TI Canary - Titanium Courtney -

Based on what I could see we are gonna get weather forecast into watches. Hope this will be back rolled to S9PP and fromer models.
-
@fluca likely just new UI watches in my opinion.

I am very sure, that S9PP does not have this capacity…Fenix 1 already had “hacks” that enabled maps. If suunto could come up with a “newer” version of that hack, maybe it would help: like just download a small zone from the app, and then delete it.
For sure it seems easier that it is to implement, but… -
@André-Faria ‘hacks’ are not reliable are presume?
-
came across this one
-
@André-Faria its 2023 and if we learned something from hacks is that they don’t work eventually. (development wise)

Guess I didn’t express myself well. What I meant to say is that at that time that hack made possible a watch with low resources to have a function. Today with all the evolution, maybe we can use the same principle to have a function on a watch with less resources.
For sure the best is to have a full experience… -
@Egika I think it depends in how much details you need. The Coros maps are quite small, but not very detailed (no street names, place names etc) on the picture you can see that the chosen area (blueish rectangle with blue dot) only would have 38 MB ). The S7 also had map tiles you could download, so let’s see
