. I don’t want to think that it was on purpose to promote the newer generation of the watches as I have read on some other posts in social media

If you don’t want to think, why would not not want to write it?
No specific to you only, but could one really think that (thus write it) “bugs” are introduced on purpose. Come on…

(Btw I edited my post prior to your reply , but yet I think I need to clarify )
Since the new watches are currently based on the same platform you could argue that one (the people developing it ) ) does not care on the impact the implementation has on previous models because they want to promote the new ones . Not that you create bugs so that you ruin the experience on purpose . It’s an argument that you can purposely take : we need to have consistent experience hence the old ones need to take a hit on something … aka the battery life .

Full cycle battery, 20 days with OHR24 and three activities each week (same time as usual since 2 years).
It used to be 30 days before the last update since the precedent fix drain battery issue about one year ago.

@thanasis The battery issue has already happened a few updates ago, Suunto doesn’t want the battery to last less, they will try to fix it as soon as possible as battery life is one of the strong points of our watches.

@MeazzaS9 I hope so, i’m still stuck in 10% day with my vertical solar

@fedequei I honestly waited to update (set it to non-automatic) as soon as I read about the problem. They’re definitely already working on it.

@MeazzaS9 and where is this information coming from?

Kramble

@MeazzaS9 What is your sources about this please ?

MeazzaS9

@OutdoorMan @Kramble These are just my considerations, but I repeat, since battery life is a must for Suunto, they cannot ignore this issue.

OutdoorMan

@MeazzaS9 ok, you stated it as fact so I was curious. I am not sure if I share your optimism though, but let’s see…
