Review on Suunto 9 Baro Smartwatch (Black) by Goro Akechi ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are deviations, generally tolerable.

For that kind of money, it's better to take a Garmin, and two times cheaper - some kind of Samsung, Huawei or Xiaomi. With a lower price tag, Suunto's seven is at least a smart (rather than sports) watch. It makes sense to buy only as a training watch. Getting out into the forest with them as a means of navigation is scary, and the accuracy of measurements is in question.

Pros
  • Indeed, as it was written above, a very presentable appearance. Good autonomy. Lots of sport modes.
Cons
  • The search for satellites sometimes stretches just indecently for a long time (I have a head unit in a car under glass and iron finds it many times faster). The barometric altimeter is just a song: without departing from the ticket office, it can change the height by a hundred meters (after only the auto-tuning has been done): either it will raise it by 100 meters, or in general, it will lower it below sea level . If there are ates and a rather annoying series of reminders, when connected to a computer via Suunto Link, no ate attempts occur (not the first time, anyway).
