Review on 💪 SUUNTO 9 Baro White: The Ultimate Smart Watch for Your Active Lifestyle by Eunu Aroha ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well done, but I won't buy any more.

I bought it when I decided to take on my body, because I had serious obesity (so far, I haven’t completely parted with him, but the process is new .). I decided to approach the process thoroughly - with tracking indicators in training, examination before starting a "new life". In general, suunto 9 baro helps me a lot to maintain the regime and track progress. TSS indicators very reliably characterize the state of the body - when you need to take a break, and when, on the contrary, increase the intensity of training. In general, I am satisfied, although the device is more for advanced athletes than for me, but I will strive to match it.

Pros
  • Excellent autonomy, excellent functionality. For sports, especially in the open air, it is the most. Many write about the dim screen - I do not know. in the bright sun, it is probably dull, but I have never had problems with this. In the training mode, there is a good contrast - in general, the illumination is enough for me to get the necessary information. In fact, the brightness of the screen was sacrificed for the sake of autonomy and durability - after all, sapphire glass . For a year of active wear, it was not possible to scratch. For example, Suunto 7 - with a gorilla is much brighter, but the screen has been slightly rubbed over the year, but not critical. At 9 baro - not a hint of scratches. In general, for a sports device enough. We are pleased with the strength - this is a kind of armored personnel carrier among watches. On trips I don’t take it off my hand - salty, fresh water, diving, swamp, forest - I never got confused so as not to break / drown / scratch. In general, as a sports watch - there are practically no questions for them. This is the second watch from suunto - the first ones were 7. I took these because of the greater functionality and reliability. In general, I use both 7 and 9baro. Everyone has their own niche - 7 is more likely to travel (NFC, Google applications, navigation - consider a minicomputer is always in your pocket) + fitness, 9baro - more for fitness / sports, moreover, for training for results - it tracks more parameters. For athletes, nice buns in the form of strava partners and others. Special thanks for the V0max rating. This is the thing you need
Cons
  • The pedometer is set up so-so - the usual waving of the arms, even driving a car with active taxiing cheerfully winds up the steps. In this regard, a banal fitness bracelet (I had mi band of different generations) is much more accurate. Sometimes weird with a pulse. Someone writes that it lifts up to 220 - it’s the opposite for me - if the hand is very sweaty, they begin to lower the heart rate, after breaking contact / wiping the hand without even removing the watch - everything returns to normal. But I think this is the problem with all wrist-based heart rate monitors. I will take the breastplate. So far, sleep tracking has not been finished - if you took off your watch before going to bed - it can decide that you are already sleeping and if you then put it on, the sleep assessment will be, for example, sleep 22:00-7:00, sleep duration 6 hours, wakefulness - 3 hours Somehow crooked, but I think they will finish it. Sometimes the assessment of sleep and my own feelings do not match: it happens that the assessment of sleep is good, but you feel overwhelmed, and vice versa - you are completely rested, and the assessment of sleep is bad . In general, I have not yet understood whether this function is useful to me or not, just talk about her and everything. When finished, it will definitely be useful .
