WiFi heads up…
The watch doesn’t seem to like hidden SSID’s

damn, it sounds lame

[surfboomerang]

Three “weird” things I found:

• New sport modes are always in Custom battery mode for the first time instead of Performance because of the touchscreen “map only” setting. Easy to change, but I would expect Performance to be the default

• The “Display Timeout” enabled actually reduces the battery prediction by 1 hour on a full charge. I would expect the opposite actually.

• I can’t seem to lock the watch when an activity is paused. Keeping the lower button pressed just scrolls to the “Discard” option (Dangerous! )

@ChrisA
did you zoom in and out?

Yes, it’s like there’s just no map. I wonder if the downloaded map really is the right one. It shows the right area, but its very close to the border of the map…

@ChrisA
I was downloading maps while I did a retirement run with my beloved S9B Titanium X-Alps 0210/1138… sooo many nice moments!!! 🥹 …ok, back to topic: I’ll try now with my maps

isazi Are you aware of any incompatibilities with WiFi6 routers? For example whatever I do I cannot add wifi to the watch. The router in question is Fritz 6690 with same name for the 2.4 and 5 wifi.

It shows 2.4 only

I also got mine today. The worst experience is to create all sports modes from the scratch, so I will be happy about new watch tomorrow. I hope Suunto will solve this, because I will have to stay with this watch forever coming from S9B impression about new UI is very good.

Did a TP guide on a treadmill. With the 9p when I pressed the lap button the guide went to the next interval. Today on the Vertical it recorded a manual lap.

I think that’s the exact behavior I’m seeing on S9PP, quite possibly a correct behavior. Pressing “lap” records manual lap unless TP workout is setup to explicitly skip to next interval:

@ChrisA this happened to my Press release watch sometimes too. Switched to another screen and when I came back any timelier, map appeared. I cannot reproduce that behaviour, but sometimes maps are lost.

Yes, it’s a horrible pain to reset anything, now I use only default sport mode.

I downloaded map for Île-de-France, it takes up to 15 minutes! we are back to 2001

@zhang965 it was quite long to download maps

Not sure if it belongs here, but does anyone know how this works in the SA?

A workout recorded with the S9PP looks like this:

A workout recorded with the Vertical looks like this:

The information about he watch is missing. Is this intended?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

the download does not take long it’s the unpacking of really compressed data and creating indexes that does. That’s why the charger requirement.

That said you can downloaded a whole country in a couple of hours and never worry.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

For those having map issues did you download one region or more than one ?

@mikeorbreak Here are some comparison pictures S9B and SV
You asked for it

[ChrisA]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I only downloaded one area, around me. I’m in the process of downloading the other two around me, since I live exactly in an area where three tiles meet

[trailcafe]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos had it with 4-5 regions (Upper Bavaria, Tyrol, South Tyrol, Carinthia, Switzerland) as well as with only one (Upper Bavaria)

@Miš-Kan Great photos. Can you turn the screen on for the Vertical as a comparison? I keep hearing the screen resolution is so much better than 9 Baro or Suunto 9 PP, but I haven’t seen any real world photos yet to compare.
