Suunto Vertical is here

wmichi

For me OHR is unusable on the SV. It‘s ok for 24/7 HR, but for everything else I need a H10 or Verity Sense. It doesn‘t matter what sport I do, where I place the watch or how tight I wear the watch. Most of the time it displays HR around my resting HR. I had the best results with the S9P. S9PP was worse and SV is like S9B (unusable). As others have mentioned, OHR is highly personal, and for me no watch OHR works. There is only one exception: Apple Watch. I am ok with that, I wasn‘t expecting that the SV works for me in this regard. Whoever has the same problem as me: use a Verity Sense or OH1. It‘s comfortable and very close to a chest strap, sometimes even better. I would buy it over and over again.

I was wondering why Suunto allows sport modes settings, and why we still can’t do anything about watchfaces.
Does anybody has any informations about Suunto roadmap and the ability in the next months to customize watchfaces on the Vertical model, or to install new one like widgets ?

no one knows, and who knows can’t tell, due to NDA

@sartoric Im getting the impression the June update now is bug/hot fixes only, and no new features added yet.(?)

sartoric

@mikekoski490
Yep, as it is an hotfix

@Ketoohs it feels like you need to replace the belt.

Suunto 7 was a smartwatch with all bells and whistles. Today Suunto designs and manufactures sports watches. That’s why the emphasis is in sports features.

@rooldaa maybe I’ll change the battery and see if it helps. Today OHR was consistent with two wrong readings, which is good enough for me.

@sartoric Ok thanks, I understand, but I hope Suunto will provide an option for this soon…

@BrunoH Yes I agree it’s a sport watch, but I’m still wondering why you can confgure everything in sport modes and nothing in watchfaces. I have only one watch on my wrist every days, at work, at home, for sport practise and this is Suunto Vertical. And all my sport colleagues have an unique watch too. It should not be so difficult to allow displaying particular datas on the screen…Garmin does that with Fenix models… Wait and see !

@Enrique-0 configuring complications is in very alpha test, but it has been tested, and it may come later this year.

@isazi Thanks a lot for this information ! Good new

isazi

@Enrique-0 of course, like other things that have been tested in the past, it could also never come to production because of many reasons.

@MiniForklift my S9B also has crazy high HR readings. I always have to use a strap except if I’m just walking/hiking when it’s OK. My Suunto 7 is actually not too bad OHR. Not great, but reasonable.

Best OHR I have is my Forerunner 245. It’s brilliant. HR readings are always within a beat or so of my H10 strap. Maybe it’s the small size? Sits better on the wrist? Either way I love the look and size of the Suunto’s so I don’t mind needing to wear a strap 90% of the time.

@MiniForklift Same for me. OHR was unusuble on S5,S9B,S9PP and now SV. Whatever I do goes zone 5 all the time.
I have been always wearing my chest strap since before OHR was invented so not a big deal form but definitively is a shame.

Another thing I noticed:

The 24/7 heart measurement doesn’t show all upswings in the graph on the watch, nor in the app…

I have a short climb on my way to work where the watch shows a pulse of 140 - 145, but just for a short period.
However, as mentioned above, this is not shown on the graph on the watch, nor in the app?

Will this be fixed with the coming hotfix?

isazi

@Stoke80 as far as I know the graph is still the simplified one for when measurements were every 10 minutes, a new graph has been mentioned somewhere here, not sure if it needs watch update or just app update.
The hotfix coming out this month is just to fix the crash that some users are experiencing.

Stoke80

@isazi Thank you for the answer. I also have the Impression, that for the daily calories calculation (beside trainings), the steps are still more important than the 24/7 HR measurement.

Is that possible? And will it maybe been changed (or fixed) somewhen?

Luís Pinto

What would change in the firmware at future? In the routes on a map, a field to see how many kms are left to the destination, and in the settings, something where you could choose the active GNSS systems, as is possible in the Peak, even in double frequency in the specific case of the Vertical.

hi friends i have hidden wifi networks everywhere. Unfortunately, the Suunto app does not have the functionality to add a hidden SSID.
