The 9 G1 Baro is Titanium is lite weight. I use the watch primarily for cycling and hiking. The battery life has been excellent lasting for over a week depending upon what I am doing. If you decide to buy this watch I would recommend only down loading the Suunto app to your phone and not downloading the Movescount app to your phone. I have issues with syncing the watch to Movescount on my iPhone particularly after i have synced with the Suunto App... If you link your watch via the USB connection to your computer, the Movescount page does come up and does summarize your activities. Suunto has made it known that the Movescount app will be retired by 2020... I have not tried planning a route on the Suunto app yet, but it does look easy to use....

i like the Suunto app on my iPhone and have had no issues with it. You get what you pay for... This is a high quality activity tracker...This is a great activity watch...

Coming from Garmin: this is a very "almost" watch

SDinNC

Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2022

Prior watch: Garmin Vivoactive 3
The vivo active 3 is a more fitness inspired watch but has many of the features contained in higher level Garmin's but is less robust overall.

As my battery life in the Vivoactive dwindled over the last few years and became unable to consistently hold a charge through a weekend, I decided it was time for a new watch. I was able to snag the Suunto 9 Titanium on a good deal and I always wanted to try their product line.

The good:
Battery life is Amazing
Once you get the watch set to your liking it's very functional
Once you set the GPS to use multiple satellites it has good tracking
I like the aesthetic of the Titanium better than the regular 9 Baro and better than Garmin

The fine:
Screen and responsiveness is fine. Some reviews suggest other wise but I have no issues..
The screen kind of locks when the watch has been out of use for a bit, and you need to push a button to wake. This is fine but not great.

The meh:
Sleep tracking is meh compared to Garmin. Does not seem to automatically know when asleep and the graphs and tracking are overly simple
Watch faces are meh. Why is there no watch face that has the day, steps, and battery life on one screen without cycling through? Dumb. I also wish there were more / better faces.
Initial set up was garbage. The default backlight set up, satellite set up, etc, were all set to more of a battery-oriented approach which is not practical for a day to day piece. So, not knowing this, my first run with the watch had awful GPS tracking (this was resolved when I turned on additional satellites).
Heart rate tracking is maybe meh? Every time I run it tells me the heart tracking was not optimal, yet I wear it above my wrist (per instructions) and the readings themselves seem fine... So i dunno.
This this is big... She got a donk.

All in all it does what's needed so perhaps I'll keep it but I'm the whole I just feels very "almost". Like, it's so close to being very good in multiple categories but ultimately just ends up being ok. That said, there's nothing glaringly wrong once set up appropriately.

Where do I even start?

Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2022

Ok, this has been a big disappointment. I loved the look of the watch and the hardware part of it. It looks and feels more solid than even some of the high-end Garmin, and unfortunately, that is where all the good things come to end.

Cons - 1. The Suunto app is very very difficult to use. Compared to Garmin Connect, which takes about 5 mins to master, all the relevant data is laid out perfectly in one or two pages. Here, the data is all over the place and confusing. Also, my Garmin old watch will sync with Garmin Connect every time without fail, here the Suunto app fails to sync and you have to try 2-3 times before it will finally sync.

2. The lack of watch faces, even after upgrading to the latest version 2.20.30 (which requires you to connect your watch via a USB cable to a computer and requires the Suuntolink app installed on the computer..yes even in 2022!). Some watch faces are designed so you never get all the important info in one glance. You have to press multiple buttons, swipe the touch screen and then you will get some. This brings us to point 3.

3. The buttons feel very mushy and do not respond like in Garmin, and sometimes just don't activate the feature. The screen is also hit or miss, but it is much more predictable than the buttons.

4. The battery is meh. Even when I am not using GPS or any other rich features, it will last 2-3 days before it needs a charge. The Baro is also all over the place. I was on a summit of a small hill which was 575 feet and it was showing me 192 feet , even after spending over an hour there and re-acquiring the satellite data, it never corrected and showed 221 feet.

5. With all the flaws, I still decided to keep it but then out of nowhere, it stopped charging. It was at 20% and draining, but will not charge. I tried to do a soft reset and hard reset but it will not talk to the SuuntoLink app which is needed to do it. Also, it stopped communicating with Bluetooth and with my iPhone. After a few hours, the battery was dead and that was it. Amazon was good enough to take it back and refund me the money.

Overall, a big disappointment. If Suunto wants to sell high-end fitness watches, they have a whole lot of challenges ahead. Even the Chinese brand Coros is much better than the buggy UI and confusing layout of Suunto. The hardware feels outstanding quality, but unfortunately, it is not skin deep as it turned out in this case.

I've been a runner off and on, for years. I'm currently training for a marathon and hope to eventually move into ultras. This watch is so much better than my old Garmin. It provides all the data tracking to ensure I'm training properly, and the animated course at the end of the run is great to give you an idea of what you've accomplished (provided on the downloaded app). This watch is definitely worth the money!

Had High Hopes

Reviewed in Canada on December 16, 2022

The watch bezel and clasps are blue but the band is black. Big contrast. It's not what the picture and ad really show. The band feels very cheap and hard. The reverse side of the band has a plastic type coating which leads to the cheap feel of it. The face is quite nice and would've stood out nicely with a better looking and higher quality band. I have the original Suunto Vector (still going strong after 20 years), the Peak 9 Titanium. Classy - just don't bump the silver bezel - it scratches way too easy. Unfortunately, Suunto couldn't, or wouldn't, help even within the warranty period.

But sorry to say, this one's a dud.

Interfaz amigable y confiable,; pero mas grande el reloj de lo que imaginé.

Reviewed in Mexico on March 31, 2022

Al momento tengo 2 semanas de usar el reloj, y todo marcha bien, la batería me esta durando aproximadamente 4-5 días. No lo uso todo el día, solo cuando voy a realizar actividad física. Se ha desenvuelto sin problema en las 3 actividades que lo he usado, caminata (senderismo), correr en campo traviesa y en ciudad, y natación. Mas adelante actualizare sobre su desempeño. El modo de cambiar el rendimiento de batería según su carga antes de cada actividad, me pareció sobresaliente.
En lo personal considero que si eres de esas personas que no usa el reloj deportivo todo el tiempo, esta bien esta opción (por el tema de la batería), si lo usas constantemente y todo el día, recomendaría otra marca que le dure mas la batería.
Actualización Oct 2023:
El reloj ha seguido funcionando correctamente. Lo he utilizado mayormente para natación en piscina y ocasionalmente en aguas abiertas. No he tenido problemas en ninguna de las 2 actividades.
Lo he usado también para senderismo, ciclismo y correr en campo traviesa y el seguimiento del GPS ha sido muy bueno. La batería me dura habitualmente 4 a 5 días. Pero no uso todos los días el reloj.
No trae muchas esferas el reloj, pero considero que eso no es relevante.
Se puede cambiar la música de tu celular desde el reloj y contestar algunos mensajes con respuestas predeterminadas.
Sigo pensando que fue una buena compra y si cambiará de reloj optaría por uno más pequeño por decir el suunto 9 Peak.

De momento lo estoy probando y trasteando, para ver bien todas la opciones que tiene y aprender como funciona, al principio de decepciono un poco, su aspecto en vivo y la correa que trae no me acaba de convencer, me resulta muy rigida para poder ajustarla bien, luego al ir probandolo en salidas para correr me ido gustando, pero hay cosas que todavia debo aprender como ajustarlas, eso si calidad precio bien, ya se ha llevado varios golpes y aguanta.
