Suunto Vertical is here

vlado

off topic a bit: i forgot what is that general rule with a new watch which usually comes at 70% battery…charge it full out of the box or wait until it’s empty for it’s first charge?
Oh and…Orange Titanium ordered

@vlado With lithium batteries I guess there are no more rules like leave it whole night to fully charge, etc. What I do is I plug it till it reaches 100 then use it. After a couple of cycles it should enter normal battery use and wear. Lately I’ve been reading not to overcharge lithiums so I tend to go to 80-85 and use it to 20-30 and charge again. Once in a month I go to 0 and 100 again.

No, we are in 2023, no rules with battery.

@André-Faria I would guess so, since DC Rainmaker mentioned that daily HR tracking is now every second (as opposed to every 10 Minutes) as it is on the S7. I never had any resources drop with the S7 and therefore I would expect it should be the same her (or at least muchmuch better)

@isazi any hints on what will cascade to 9 models? I’ve a Peak, and am broadly happy with it; I only upgraded 4 months ago, otherwise I’d be considering the Vertical. HRV would be really cool, but equally, some UI updates would be nice

isazi

@Steven-Limmer I think 9B and 9P should get some functionalities, but nothing that requires the new UI.

Go enjoy

The best GNSS device accuracy out there can only be found on this watch. Let the others brag (COROS), you go get this one ~Dimi

I hope other testers here can update you on all the features etc

Nice…!

@Frederick-Rochette the lag is when switching the dynamic widgets only. Yes it is already under work.

@Frederick-Rochette no plans for music at all.

Steven Limmer

@isazi So not the UI changes that are on the Peak Pro?

DMytro

@isazi in other words, no weather nor suunto coach?
But will preconfigured s+ per sportmode work?

Spree

@DMytro Suunto coach comes with Suunto app, not the watch firmware.

dombo

titanium - is it only difference in bezel, or also other parts of the body are titanium instead of plastic (bottom part)? it is not clear to me from the images. thank you

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I can’t login to my Suunto account in Suunto web shop page, i also tried to change country but it’s the same. I would like to place preorder with my account.

DMytro

@Spree there’s also coach on the watch, no? With suggested workouts, etc

isazi

@DMytro no configurable widgets indeed, but some S+ features should land there. I do not have the S9B here with me so cannot check what new features are there.

@DMytro where did you see suunto coach with suggested workouts on the watch?

mikekoski490

@dulko79 I read one post or review that said something about voice coaching while working out? Something connected while wearing Bluetooth headphones or something?

I’ve pre-ordered the Vertical Ti and am looking forward to the updated features, battery life, and bigger screen. I hope newer features allow more customization of the text messaging fonts. On 9PP they are black font on white background, and hard to read.

Also looking forward to this list from a post on the 9PP forum:

A lot of the internals are new with Vertical:

New Display
New Battery
New Bluetooth chip
Dual band GPS (L1+L5)
New processor
New accelerometer + gyroscope sensor
New magnetometer sensor
Improved OHR sensor

dulko79

@mikekoski490 OK, I missed coaching in any kind of form on the watch. Maybe something on the way in software.

And yes the GNSS is this good!
