Suunto 9 Peak
-
it is through these exchanges that we see that not everyone has the same expectations …
-
@dulko79 we will probably have cyborg eyes, before the lock button is implemented.
-
@rob33 Wry joke from experience, not mockery. Fifty indeed in rearview, and not as close as it sometimes seems.

And in 2031 “waiting for blink lock” became a Forum signature … In the interim.
-
And what about a Suunt’Optic online shop? We have beta testers (50’s bad eyed sportsmen), we have designers (too much lock button focused but…) we surely have some marketing guys
What do we miss? -
@mff73
that’s why I start to free myself from certain ideas -
@stefan-kersting said in Suunto 9 Peak:
in a couple of years there will be a voice feature that tells you your pace because we can not see it on the watch
It’s already here. Named Garmin. Already tells you your pace and heart rate. Long-press a light button and you can even call for help. “I fell and I cannot get up!”
-
@nickk Strava and RK had that. AVG pace per KM. Then its usefull

Endomondo had that too. When running with a mobile phone and headphones it would announce speed, distance etc at every autolap.
-
@egika right.
For starters this is something nice I think

@fenr1r Laugh, laugh, you’ll see when you’re over fifty …
If you continue to play sports …Wait until you are over 60……as I said the screen on the Peak is brighter than the baro, much easier for me to see when out in the snow on a SkiMo day. It appears sharper to me as well but the ambient backlight helps a great deal when the sun is not shining. I was surprised and was skiing with the baro and Peak most of the time. I love the S7 screen but in bright sunlight and with sunglasses it is impossible to see, the transreflective screens are much better for outdoor use.
-
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos so, as some people use the S7 with BT earphones for music, also the S7 wear app could do this

@egika
with a smooth and nice ladies voice…
reminds me of countdowns to notify Mr. Bond in the 70’s how many seconds are left for him to save the world -

indeed the brightness counts enough, but my problem is that I can not see much near without glasses (for example very complicated on a phone).
I admit it’s quite specific to my case… and it’s boring.It will be necessary to test!

@egika Sports Tracker was doing that since it started out as a Symbian OS based app, called Nokia Sports Tracker beta long long time ago you could customize what to hear, I always had it on so I could just hear it and keep running
-
@chrisa +1 on the ‘50+ ageing eyes.’ I have a similar pair!
-
@dulko79 …and with no need of an alarm in the night to get up to pee!
-
Pardon me for asking… I’m just wondering, with all the battery power during GPS tracking, why suunto 9 series cannot last more than a week in watch mode? we have 25 hour with best gps tracking, but 7-day mode only in smartwatch? (most often would be less in mixed usage).
-
@kk1n76
most likely because of the valencell sensor for 24/7 HR etc. I have switched it off and get 5-7 days with frequent activity (best GPS and HR chest strap). Without any activity it’s around 14 days
