    @Stefan-Kersting I made the same remark on the forum a few month ago, I can’t agree more with you, the Vo2max calculation during a hike is so dumb…

      I have also raised this in the past if I remember well.
      Really a pitty that we can’t toggle on/off the vo2max.

      I also experience this lowering of vo2max when hiking, when running pushing a croozer chariot or when doing some very gentle trail running

        @v-sacre Since I only do trail running, my VO2 max is completely screwed up. Let’s hope for a special calculation like Garmin’s in a future firmware.

          It’s been talked over and over again on this forum for last, I don’t know, three years? Apparently it’s impossible for Suunto to either get it right algorithmically or, as was suggested quite a few times before - let users decide for which activities VO2 will be estimated by giving the user a simple switch in the workout options screen (similarly to how feeling is implemented).

            @Łukasz-Szmigiel The algorithms will change in the next firmware. Let’s hope it happens in the future. Cross finger

                @Stefan-Kersting Probably with the next watch. Coming soon. The firmware will be shared for both models.

                            @dulko79 I don’t know. I’m just guessing with things I found on the internet 🙂

                              @Lechamoix yes, I know. I just find it absurd that a simple fix of being able to turn it off for particular workouts didn’t come for years. And besides - we don’t know how the new algorithm will handle slow and long hikes.

                                @Łukasz-Szmigiel this might be beyond the logic of how Suunto likes to keep things simple and stupid 😉

                                  @altcmd to me, the only real issue that I have with Suunto is the stubbornness in not willing to give users the ability to tweak their experience to their liking. I’m thinking about all those QOL improvements that appear once in a while in the forum. Each one of them is too small to be a real issue, but altogether are really annoying.

                                  I.e.:

                                  • Ability to disable VO2 max estimation
                                  • Ability to dismiss the “keep moving” or “calibrate the compass” nag once per workout
                                  • Ability to customize the data fields in watch faces
                                  • Ability to set more than one alarm
                                  • Ability to lock the buttons outside the workout
                                  • Ability to cycle screens backwards without the touch screen
                                  • Ability to adjust brightness and vibration strength in more levels and without the UI changing between versions
                                  • Ability to prioritize battery settings over the navigation screen (navigation screen forcing the best battery mode)
                                  • Ability to turn off vertical navigation screen

                                  And the list goes on.

                                    @Łukasz-Szmigiel agreed - each too small but together too big.

                                      @altcmd and none of this requires super duper new hardware or innovative approach…
