speculations and rumours about upcoming Suunto watches

isazi

@Hristijan-Petreski let’s see, I’ll watch this announcement, check the forum, and if it is a new watch and it fits my requirements, I’ll also hit the preorder button on day 1.

Suunto IG reposted stories of testers I guess, hinting new watch is just before the release. Does a cool looking bottle come with a new watch?

isazi

@dulko79 oh Suunto is teasing us now

dulko79

@isazi it seems so , those boxes look really tempting.

isazi

@dulko79 I believe that the boxes with a bottle are for the ambassadors, not us

Tieutieu

@dulko79 it killes me…I see a looonnnggg week of suffering waiting for final specs !! and very likely ordering/pre-ordering !!

dulko79

@isazi haha I know. But some small accessories could be added to watch. After all, this forum users are also mini ambassadors.

dulko79

@Tieutieu it will be quick and based on the leaks it seems the stock will be available at the lauch.

Guys I am super excited
Btw the mid button of my s9b is not working properly (after a press the button doesn’t get back). I want to send it to Suunto support to fix it but I don’t want to have a free wrist. How long does it take from pre-order to ordering/shipping for new watch?
Thx

@dulko79 and on at least one of the (previous) IG posts from the various ambassadors the new Vertical can be seen worn.

Some time ago I sent my A3P for the same reason and iirc it took less than a week from .it

@Freezer so you mean someone who’s name starts with a p ?

Freezer

@Andi-Buzer, actually no, one with a g. But the one with a p is also flashing it. Soon it will be the whole alphabet.

Maybe the bottle is some kind of external barometer that is required by the watch.

Got my finger on the trigger.

Hope it’s a worthy upgrade over 9p.

isazi

@Ketoohs I hope it is. What I would miss is just the size, I really like the size of the 9P (and 9PP), it is so light, barely noticeable, and all rumors point at a larger watch.

Ketoohs

@isazi well I really hope the size iz 49mm and the screen is bigger. It is one of my biggest drawbacks with the 9p. Especially when I run a structured run I can sometimes barely see what it says.

The other thing is lack of power.

On the wish side there is treadmill accuracy, and hrv,sleep, life analytics.

@isazi I agree. I have always had larger watches - from Suunto to Garmin to Coros - but I currently have the 9PP on a grey Suunto microfiber strap and it’s only 46 grams. It is easily the most comfortable ‘wrist device’ I have ever had, and the best looking. Hoping the upcoming announcement has a few upgrades and bug fixes for the 9PP too, since I bought it for its improved internals and ability to update to more advanced features!

isazi

@mikekoski490 the 9PP is not forgotten, it has a substantial update coming (May? June?) to the firmware for what I know, and if there is a new watch coming I would bet that all features that are not hardware dependent will also come to the 9PP.
