me ? I never leave home without my lubricant. You never know what happens.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos HR below 50 while sitting is nothing impossible, I think
-
@andrƩ-faria 'dat cardboard laptop stand is money.
-
@aroo7 certainly not impossible, 43 for me while sitting/resting

@chrisa Is is possible to take out the spring bars from the supplied strap? Iām thinking of using a different strap when my watch arrives but canāt work out from the videos Iāve watched if itās possible to take out the spring bars from the supplied strap. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

@iowboy
straps that fit usually come with the quick release bars -
@freeheeler Hi. The hook straps I use donāt. Iāve always had to use the spring bars that came with my watch.
-
@iowboy I am not sureā¦ have never done it. There is a quite big metal part on it of which I am not sure if it will be difficult to pull it through the āhollow partā (donāt know if this makes sense in English ) here are some pics:

@chrisa Thanks. Your pics were brilliant and really helped.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos no 40 is common among trained people
-
@chrisc92 isnāt that 45 ? I get 48-40 but not 40 at the middle of the day
33 beats per minute
Sleeping only seven hours a night, Kilian Jornet seems almost superhuman. His resting heartbeat is extremely low at 33 beats per minute, compared with the average manās 60 per minute or an athleteās 40 per minute.I wanted to say that 40 while itās an athletes resting hr itās not all times from at least what I have seen in my close circles. I might be wrong.

Iām bradicardic and I donāt even have an S9 so I wonāt reply

@andrƩ-faria it is slower and the screen not quite as vivid I am afraid .
Compared to a 645 I feel there is little to be justifying the price . I donāt really get it but it is indeed nice looking
-
I get a very high resting rate after mowing a lawn.

@thanasis Re you sure the screen is not so vivid ? Afaik compared to most FR (and the lastest) according to users itās more vivid.
Regarding snappiness of the ui all suuntos have the same. Itās the dma engine that is set for stability not performance.

@chrisa
I agree: the quick release bars belong to the strap. it sounds silly but IMHO they are a simple āsystemā. -

Thanks for the answer regarding snappiness.
Regarding the vividness compared to FR245 I think the fr245 is more vivid. But when compared to f6s sapphire the s9p is more vivid and we can see much better.@thanasis said in Suunto 9 Peak:

Regarding this comment, from one side I understand it well.
There are some handy options/customizations missing from Suunto s9p to most FR series.
I think the price of S9P is justified by its weight/quality/design and stability. We canāt forget that the s9p has metal casing and sapphire glass also.
Unfortunately, regarding product point of view not everytime these things can be transmitted āin the paperā.
Also regarding the snappiness, although I understand the decision, sometimes it gives the impression of āold hardwareā/ābadly optimizedā. I think it is a thing to take care because in the end it is a 700eur watch, not a 150eur one.
But yeah maybe it was not reported by testers as an āissueā.
Fortunately with recent actions from suunto we can expect continuous improvement on the watch regarding functions and Hope performance. -
Regarding the vividness compared to FR245 I think the fr245 is more vivid. But when compared to f6s sapphire the s9p is more vivid and we can see much better.
You canāt really compare sapphire glass on Peak or Fenix thatās quite reflective and thus somewhat darker to optically bonded Gorilla glass on FR. Of course, the latter will appear to be more readable and possibly vivid, in some conditions. However, apart from being nowhere as scratch resistant as sapphire, it will also have slight tint (compare F6 with sapphire screen to FR when displaying something with multiple colors), and when looking at the watch directly, in good lightingā¦ I donāt know, but me thinks sapphire does deliver livelier, truer, and more popping colors and renders blacks as true blacks and not those blueish-grayish tones.

@andrƩ-faria go to settings and try to touch and scroll. The performance should be quite ok.
When the rest of menus are loaded for example when in the watchface and going up it should also be ok.
However when going down to see ie the live hr view it takes some time feels choppy and the same applies as going more down. Suunto is aware of this. Actually if the live hr view was lower it would have been better.
The activity start screen is slow. It might show data after 7s max even if recording before.
That is merely due to the way the streaming of sensors is initialized and aggregated. Itās a heavy job and to be able to initialize all components calibrate altitude yadi ya at one has this effect , trying to keep the gun time right. You might find some watches showing the data asap , while the gun time being wrong. Actually it was like so at some fws and it was changed to be able to keep gun time ok. I donāt think that toggling then among the data screens is so bad.
That said that is the HW that Suunto has. Remember. The hw is in-house almost. At least in terms of coding / FW. Yes we write fw for most of the components. Could it be better ? Sure.
Suunto is focused on a sportwatch experience not a snappiness experience so this is not top priority although known and desired. What do I mean with that ? I bet Suunto can spend an iteration making things snappier but then they would delay features that are down the pipeline.
That said we also have the s7 which is very snappy much better than any competitor out there (kinda) , but still , itās not a performance sport watch.
Enjoy your watch and itās quality of materials design and software and let those minor annoyances behind. Remember your ambit that was slow to even show pixels. Still then was many moto360 much snappier cheaper and would die at day one when visiting the 40c Greece for vacation.
Ps a ccuracy of sensors is also consider a price thing or for example the tuning and software of those including antenna design testing , hw iterations strap materials and so on.
Ps2 we are not Garmin , we are way smaller company. We all put our effort to bring what you get and the materials we choose for hw have to be able to be assembled by hand as your watch is basically made / assembled by hand by a guy that gets well paid and works under eu conditions. You can drink a beer with the factory workers. Oh and they also donāt waste any material. Your coros (ask me for proof) or Garmin goes to garbage when itās out. We have a whole sustainability squad and we work towards a better ecological impact each day. If you know me personally from my channels you might understand I am a sucker for eco.
If all the above donāt make your watch premium I donāt know what to sayā¦ Try a simple china based watch with snappy menus such as Amazfit.

.I donāt quite understand this partā¦
So we can send back our old suunto watch to get a discount to buy a new one ?
