Good review, I've also been testing the S9 Peak Pro and would agree with your results about accuracy. I'm satisfied with GPS and OHR, although I'm still a chest strap person, and think the interface is very good. We'll probably see more in the future about how this platform evolves.

I went to a Garmin Fenix 6 Pro from a Suunto Baro 9 and I frankly miss the Suunto app on my phone - Garmin Connect is over complicated and not all that intuitive at all. I also miss the route planning options of Suunto (apparently not available where I live according to the Garmin app, despite having a Garmin distributor in country and a very active mountaineering community), as well as the simplicity of the device. I also had an issue solo trekking in Nepal where by one of my GPX routes failed to load on the watch when I needed it as the route apparently has too many data points? Not great when you’re in the middle of nowhere. Finally, the reliance on data reception for weather data on Garmin is just not good enough, whereas Suunto relies on the Barometer and wrist based temperature sensor. Needless to say, I think I’m going back to Suunto for a watch with reliability that works for me.

Great clarification on the Suunto bezel! Actually, I think a good way to hide it would be similar to what's on my old Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR.. there are line markings on that empty space with hour marks and 5-minute interval marks, as if they're indicators for an "analog hand" watch face to work with. Just like that, the empty "bezel" space doesn't look so naked anymore and is hardly visible..

Hi And thank you for this detailed review. I have a question: do you think that after one year from the release this Peak 9 Pro is still a valuable mid-range choice for a runner/trail runner? In particular, in consideration of the last update Suunto released for its sportwatches? Do you think this watch has a real competitor out there, now that the price is lower? Thanks for your kind answer.

Suunto puts a lot of the feature set in the app, at least on Android even with a 5 Peak. And the high cost is also explained by production in Finland with simply high labor costs. And the small carboon footprint has partially been achieved by offsetting to my understanding, which also carries a cost of its own. Agree on your comments about the price point being tough, albeit it comes with quite an easy explanation.

I kind of feel cheated a bit, I have always wanted a Suunto watch and finally got my hands on a 9 Baro. I am kind of kicking myself for not getting a Garmin but I just couldn't justify the price. I feel like I should have gone with a Pro or a Peak instead. I like that the Baro screen is larger but lacks in features.

Hey, another 9 baro user here (4 years) with Garmin (features) envy. However, I think with the similar price of 9 peak pro, Garmin is skimping on hardware material, especially screen. No matter how beautiful amoled screen is on 965, Garmin decided not to use sapphire glass and made the screen protrude against the bezel, what the heck. Good software features compared to Suunto, though.

It didn't touch ANY **usability** issues, only "chip performance" ! For a 1st time user migrating from the competitor (Polar) ... I am VERY DISSAPOINTED. "Map" functionality aside, the watch not only feels heavier and chunkier but also comes NEITHER with as many exercise/sleep functions as Polar NOR it is user friendly as, including its HR reading feature is nearly as good as Polar. The inability to display a simple "heart rate" beat from the main clock screen... BAFFLES me ! Can't even customize the list of widgets from the watch itself, contrarily to what the Support/faq-articles webpage says. I AM RETURNING IT !
