Suunto Vertical is here

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.

Also can anyone do a series of photos comparing to S9P§ on wrist, height etc please

Screen resolution is better but then the screen is larger. The pixel density is the same between SV and S9PP. SV should have the next generation MIPS panel though, with improved contrast and brightness.
