So silence of mind is a way of selling a watch with no features

Or: it is something like SAAB’s night panel, which switched off almost all displays in a cars instrument and only lit up what is necessary in a certain situation

@egika
then it would be the focus feature

@egika or a watch that bothers you less

Maybe a slap band?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@egika or a watch with no screen or any output to the user. Not even the time

[wakarimasen]

@egika Still miss this feature. I loved my Saab

[surfboomerang]

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Just selling an empty box? No worries about battery lifetime

[DMytro]

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos oh, thats like nophone! They were selling a phone shaped slab of plastic to help people with phone addiction. You feel the weight of a phone in your pocket, but can use no feature.

@olymay
Suunto Latvia might have the 25th already?
…it would be really interesting to test and feel how these buttons work with gloves!

Good morning ️

Thank you very much @sky-runner and @olymay

[wakarimasen]

Crap! I keep missing the revealing posts.

@freeheeler well, I’m sure you can think of a person that uses gloves for skiing and is very active here, and that may be comment on that in the future

@wakarimasen there was a youtube video this morning, you could clearly see the watch, I will only say that i really like the quality of screen

[wakarimasen]

I’m just curious about whether or not the existing 9 Baro will become a legacy model. Thinner and smaller doesn’t do much for me, and I’m happy enough with the screen on my Spartan. A longer battery life would be welcome (which the 9 brings) and from what I’ve read, the existing Valencell sensor has enough tricks up its sleeve to be unlocked via firmware. Tempted to just buy the S9 Baro anyway…

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@wakarimasen what tricks does the Vallencel have?

[wakarimasen]

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Only what I read on the DC Rainmaker review:
‘This unit contains Valencell’s latest sensor, version 1.2 That means that Suunto actually has a bunch more that they can do in terms of biometrics down the road if they wanted to via firmware updates. Again, it’s in there – but that does require software be written around it and then software on apps and websites to support it as well.’

Valencell 1.2

@wakarimasen but what more todo?
