    @surfboomerang said in speculations and rumours about upcoming Suunto watches:

    @Freezer according to the leaks it does make a huge difference in watch mode: 60days vs 1 year.
    In GPS performance mode much less difference: 60hrs vs 85hrs

    Just by how things were written I interpreted this difference to be down to whether you are using single or dual band GPS?..

    • Up to 60 hours in the most accurate dual-band GNSS tracking mode
    • 85 hours of workout tracking with accurate GPS setting

    I can’t see how solar would be able to provide an additional 15 hours, I think that’s way too optimistic

      @SuperFlo75 IMHO solar works for your Citizen watch, because of its minimal energy consumption. The latest solar watches from Casio are advertised to work for many months (at least 8, but maybe an year) without solar charging. At the same time, their battery is much smaller, compared to Suunto. I admit I don’t have exact figures, but I’m convinced that Suunto with bluetooth and especially GPS is incomparable to regular chronograph watch in terms of energy consumption. Also, keep in mind that the regular chronograph watch face provides you with much more space for solar cells. With Suunto you’re limited by the display - that is, you can only use the bezel for that purpose.

        From what I could see, on the Titanium solar, the circular band around the screen (not the bezel) is a bit grey whereas it is black on the Black. It looks strange and seems to penalize the aesthetics of the watch. Let’s see what it looks like in reality. An intermediate titanium version without the solar would be interesting.
        Let’s wait to see the quality of this screen, especially in terms of readability.

          We will all know in 24 hours. I understand the many reasons to being skeptic of solar, I was also very skeptic until not too long ago.

              @Hristijan-Petreski I do not know of any presentation, at 10:00 the product page on Suunto’s website will go live, and reviewers will publish their reviews.

                      @Frederick-Rochette if you look on the solar versions of the Garmin instict you can see the same. They have a very vissible “redish” tint, while the non solar are quite black/dark. I guess that’s the same with all solar watches…?

                          Since we are interested in new things in this topic, will Suunto be coming up with new version of the HR strap? One that can connect to 2 or more devices? Maybe include some running metrics like the Garmin’s HRM?

                              @MiniForklift As you are aware Suunto has a group of field testers and does extensive internal testing. Once you see the official release information don’t forget what I wrote in the first sentence.

                                  what I’m most curious about is whether communication with bike trainers will be improved, and whether it will eventually be possible to pair more than one hr device
