Suunto Vertical is here
-
@NickK I am actually still very impressed, that you got (at least here in Europe) the Vertical delivered on release day, when it was preordered. Great service!
-
@ChrisA
well, it looks like that eventually, Suunto cares

Got my Suunto Vertical Titanium Solar (sands) just in time for our trip to Reno-Taho area. Finished the watch update just before we headed to the airport. My wife was starting to lose her patience with me

@NickK Hmmm…Im doubtful. Hasnt shipped yet and its a 3 day weekend coming up here.

What can I say? Amazon did us dirty! I hope Bezos uses <insert competitor watch> and gets lost walking his estate
It’s 9:37pm and Amazon web site amazingly still says the order delivers today by 10:00pm, even though the details page has a status of “ordered” and tracking shows “shipping now” for the second day running (they can’t even agree what to lie
). The best part is this abomination of pre-order can’t be cancelled.I’m seriously considering ordering tomorrow from Suunto directly and refusing delivery from Amazon if one comes in the next few days. Yes, it would be irrational cutting one’s nose to spite a face, but you got to do something man! This aggression won’t stand!

@NickK Obviously you’re not a golfer.

Despite I am very happy with my S9PP, I could not resist and just ordered a Vertical Black non Solar on Amazon ITA. Expected May 24.
I Will have at least one month to try it and decide if I want to come back to big watches or I will stick to the smaller one.
In the first case my S9PP will go on sales somewhere and I was thinking : ‘how about a small permanent market place in this forum?’ It could be a good eco-friendly alternative to the suunto buy-back program that lot of us has suggested for cases like mine. -
@trailcafe la stessa cosa per me

So waking up this morning by the strong sun penetrating my curtains and staying 5 mins staring in the horizon I said lets check the bat on this thing after 2 days cause after the night training it was something like 96% It now sits at 100% just after 5mins in the sun. The solar charges, not only helps draining of bat. Suunto what have you done…

Seriously, have you contacted suunto support?

Sometime ago it was decided that the forum does not serve its intended purposes as a marketplace, so it won’t happen
there are already a lot of places to buy and sell watches.

Has anyone yet tried the real time guidance feature yet?
if so:
Do you get lap based commentary through the headphones (when listening to music via iphone)?
What information is presented?
Is the feature seamless; in that does it silence the music temporally when giving guidance then bring music back?
many thanks -
@TonyG yes

Yeah, I’ve seen some quirky battery things in the morning if in the 95-99% range where it’ll literally gain battery in front of me like a progress bar counter in a matter of seconds.
Obviously, you’re not charging the watch upwards that much in just 5 minutes. Been on my to-do list to send along. Only seems to happen first thing in morning, and only seems to happen - or me notice it - at very high battery percentages.

For batteries a 100% charge is relative. At 15C or 25C the 100% has an different absolute value. Over time 100% will be less in absolute mAh too.
My guess is that a battery re-calibrating algorithm kicks in at nearly 100%. Nothing special to Suunto, most rechargeable devices do that.

Ours, loups… Quand la nature de Finlande s’éveille -
Do Vertical and S9PP have the same OHR sensor? From the outside it looks identical, but… ?
-
@fluca we decided a long time ago to not allow selling here, to avoid people thinking that this is backed by Suunto itself (as the domain of this forum is suunto.com)
-
@aroo7 either the same or a very small update, but basically the same.
