Suunto 9 Peak Pro?

dulko79

@DMytro but how oled display and better battery life together?

DMytro

@Richard-Thygesen ye, and the summer update beforehand hopefully too.

DMytro

@dulko79 maybe the ‘best’ mode would incorporate a display time out. Which you could disable in the custom mode.

@inkognito ask myself really?.. No update big Suunto, but update of small S9P after a year… hmmm

As in the past, discussing “leaks” is fine, but let’s avoid publishing embargoed material here.

I have removed images that AFAIK belong to Suunto, I have left the link so whomever wants to can see images elsewhere.

So, what if the Pro version has an AMOLED screen?

If it’s the same of S7, better than no…

gerasimos

@thanasis because without Lock button in main screen it’s not pro…

seanvk

Comparing to the S9 Peak, all the dimensions mostly match. The only difference is about 2g of weight. Aside from software changes, looks like the battery size increase is the only change really.

thanasis

@gerasimos i m not sure why you mentioned me on that . What do you mean ?

DMytro

@seanvk I think it’s more than 2g, since this is a titanium model - comparing s9p titanium, we get an 8g difference. Also I assume the feature list is incomplete, since you can notice one additional sensor and 2 metal dots on the back. We’ll have to wait and see.

ChrisA

@DMytro Yes it’s awful I wished for a “cleaner” easy to read watchface, or even better for a userdefineable - but it really looks like the S7’s menues and sportsmode screens. So perhaps here comes a complete interface overhaul and therefore- who knows - Maps like on the S7 now on this S9 Peak Pro? The two aditional sensors are placed away from the main sensor, so they maybe not coniderd to have skin contact -> maybe for betteroutdoor/water temperature?

DMytro

@ChrisA doubt the watch has maps, otherwise they’d show them of on the leaked images. Maybe as an update though?

But to me new animation suggests more powerful processor. Or maybe some optimization at least. Wouldn’t mind getting new interface on the S9, however I doubt this will be happening.

ChrisA

@DMytro Yes, maybe but then - with “just” a different interface and a stronger battery it would be “just” an upgraded S9 Peak and surely a nice watch, but I doubt that anybody would upgrade from a S9 Peak then (assuming it’s in the 500+ Euro price area). On the other hand, it’s not called S10 or S11, so you might be right Perhaps it’s just a predecessor of a whole new range of watches with a new chipset/interface and the S10/11 is then coming as a christmas present

DMytro

@ChrisA bigger screen will attract s9B users and maybe even a couple s9p users.

Maps is needed on a Suunto watch. I just sold mine to have this feature. On Gramin or Coros, i don’t know yet

@ChrisA Suunto did this before. It re-released the Suunto 9 Baro 1 or 2 years after the initial release.

Different bezel but still the same watch to my knowledge.

@surfboomerang
but without adding pro to the name…
S9BP would be nice

ChrisA

@surfboomerang yes thats true - but if it would be just another iteration of the s9 plattform, the pictures would have the same user interface. I wonder why that has changed…🧐… well we‘ll see, but its fun to make guesses, what the watch might be like - and if it has a lock button

and if it has a lock button

…my wild guess: no lock button… why? …why should it have a lock button if it was not necessary in the past 4 years
and let’s be honest, smaller watches with smaller buttons reduce the risk of unwanted button press
(I am still convinced that a lock button wouldn’t hurt anyone )
