SA 2018 June Status Report
-
@marius-jacobsen-eggerud getting close to getting this to beta š¤©
Both platofrms but you know Android. Always a bit laggy.
-
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos you are talking about suunto? As that China watch is having such fields already two years
-
@slash isnāt the Spartan 2.5 years now ?
Put as well the 1 year beta/alpha that we had ā¦
Btw the China watch remkvinds me of Garmin not suunto. -
@slash if you really think this is a copy from the China version I am really done here. Someone should buy me laser surgery because wtf.
Fyi what that China watch is copy paste is from ghostracer Android. Google it or should I paste here images ?
-
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos amazfit as well over two years. But comparing suunto companion app and amazfit China guys made huge improvements during that two years journey and their app is really good

@slash dude I dont care. I wont go comparing.
This is 4 years old almost, the app is AW and about 6 years old.
Fully customizable like on the Spartan. Actaully more, since you can set font size columns and rows.
-
@slash btw Suunto is not Huwei . I am really getting tired here about this whataboutism debates.
Hey what about the polar app? It had intervals before Huawei
My 2 cents here.
The whole app/system of Amazfit itās nothing spectacular. Itās AW not a custom operating system. Suunto provides all the HW->SW layers from Assembly to UI.
Itās kinda different to build an app on a OS and kinda different to build an OS.
I really think you are mixing concerns here
-
@mi_chael here you go
-
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos it is not AW mate
Proprietary OS as well. -
@slash search again

āRight off the bat, this means no Android Wear or any other popular watch OS. Instead, Amazfit has its own Watch 2.0 platform.ā
-
@slash that is 2017 ! Are we going to go though the whole gamma of watches released? Didnāt you talk about 2016?
-
@slash btw as I see itās based on Adroid and there are roms out there no?
-
@slash it even has support for adb if I am not mistaken.
-
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos my point is here that they did impressive step forward in such short time from the company which has a lot limited know how in sport watches
and I look at this as good thing, if such companies will deliver devices and applications in par with top brands we as customers are going to win as other companies will need to invest more in their development to be on top -
@slash that is a good and valid point.
Just perhaps to add some history here, when the ambit was out, the AW had 2 very good watches that did āmiraclesā alread. You had even strava and the Spectacular Ghostracer app to use. I helped develop this app. We tried to add our own GPS error filters etc.
First GPS AW watch that worked well was Sony, then Moto 360.
I loved that. I did code a watchface for that, opensource https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dimitrioskanellopoulos.athletica.pro&hl=en it still gets downloaded and has a rating of 4.0
My moto 360 sport died from Greeceās heat. (after 3 repairs)
My Sony died in the shower. (after 2 DOA)
My Nixon Mission (the best so far) was too low on battery and had awesome sensors. (After 1-2 hours dead) they never fixed the bugs.All these are first steps from companies to sellā¦
IMHO Suunto is a slow growing/walking Giant that will deliver eventually. IF not it will die. Itās so simple. Its not any other company on AW that just does the best it can from itās latest watch creation.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos great! I donāt care about other manufactures. Whatās important is that Suunto is making progress and create one consistent software platform.
