Suunto Vertical is here

Looks very interesting. And very tempting.

Does the Vertical keep the POI Bearing Navigation function from the 9s?

And/or …

Can the onboard & offline map be used for this (rather than the App)?

Thinking if this could replace a cycling computer for bikepacking: can you plan & load a new route in the middle of a workout?

Yes, you can sync and activate new routes from the app any time. Also in the middle of a workout.

@Egika Was this already the case before ?

@Egika Can you sync new POIs to the watch from the phone during a workout? Previously this was not possible, if I recall. Only routes.

yes

Egika

@LitchiMonster yes, you can do this with Suunto Vertical.

@wmichi yeah, that’s what shoud solve it. AFAIK the S7 had this too and I had a much better Resources feedback with it

Mitch9

Running power measurements are like S9PP?

Likarnik

Did any of the testers tried it with dual sided powermeter (cycling)?

v.sacre

@Mitch9 Yes same wrist power than S9PP according to DC Rainmaker

@NickK indeed! Also, the more I use activelook the more I also want all workout related notifications to pop up in the HUD, like navigation does. Activelook would be the perfect companion for structured workouts.

Though I would also like a little bit of customization of data fields because right now indoor cycling mode is forced to show distance and speed as null because my stationary bike only has a cadence sensor. I would love to be able to replace a null field with sensor data.

Great, already an advantage compared to garmin (I know there are others!but this one is awesome!)

Can the app create circular routes on a radius, by X kms?

No, I have been requesting this in all surveys

Guess it could be a good “add on”/alternative for non routeable maps .

@André-Faria I wonder if Suunto can make the maps routeable with a software update?

Dušan Ković

The only reason I’m not getting vertical iz size… I have thin wrists and S9PP is better choice. I had S9B and it was just too big. Good job to Suunto on Vertical, looks like great watch!

Richard Thygesen

@Dušan-Ković same for me but in addition I have what I need in my S9P. Maps and stuff is not for me.

isazi

@Highlands I suppose they COULD, I don’t know if they WILL.

Routable maps need more space for storing, and routing itself (as in route generation and/or rerouting) needs computing power, so while technically possible I have no idea if this is even being considered or not.

I think it is possible but it should not be easy. I think it would add up a multitude of complications/possible errors and need of computing power. If they add some functions on the app regarding that it is somehow “solved”.
