Suunto's newest watch is the 5 Peak

Another review, in french: https://www.montre-cardio-gps.fr/test-suunto-5-peak-renouveau-sur-le-design/
-
I didnt mean the compass was expensive, I meant it also does not have compass and materials are different
-
I really like it! I donβt do mountain sports l and really like a lightweight Suunto for training and all day use. The old S5 is my all day companion but is a bit βheavyβ and the new S5 really looks better in the office!

Congratulations to suunto team, another piece of art, just like the 9 peak was/is!

@ierisch A lot to like about the monochrome screen

For those of you discussing the lack of the barometer, the 5Peak does a much better job than the 5 for ascent/descent. On larger hills I found it works fairly well, on small hills it is not as good. This is the first watch without a barometer that I would be ok with in the mountains. I think Suunto did a great job working on extracting the vertical data from GPS positioning.

@brad_olwin is this algorithm coming to S9 via firmware update?

@isazi alright, time will tell
-
And a review in Italian, from our own @Saketo-Nemo!
-
@isazi he has the best pictures in reviews compared to other reviewers.

I was excited when i found out about S5Peak. But now when i read specification, i am disapointed. With name peak i expected S5 hardware + at least barometer. But it looks like only benefit compared to S5 is OTA updates and lower weight. But battery in in-time mode is 2 days less. Glass material is plastic. And price is higher than S5. Water resistance dropped from 50 to 30m rating. So in the end it is just worst watch for higher price. Really good work Suunto!

@tomas5
I agree, I am a Suunto fan, but I think βpeakβ is raising expectations.
For me it is somehow like a branding, like cars have with AMG, M-Tech or Cupra. -
@dulko79 To be fair, most (or maybe all) of the photos in his review are the lifestyle images supplied by Suunto, so they probably look more professional than a typical reviewer taking shots with his camera phone.
-
@traileyes Sorry, not right, @Saketo-Nemo took his photos and used some of Suuntoβs. To be fair. And he has the best photos.
-
@bulkan Apologies for my mistake. I hadnβt sorted through them well enough to realize he had so many of his own shots. Sorry.
-
@traileyes I remember he had beautiful photos also in S9P review. It did not come on my mind he could have taken them from Suunto, but also I donβt remember seeing the photos elsewhere.
