Hands-On with Suunto 9 Peak featuring a 'Beautiful - Light - Smooth' design for an incredible experience

Truly, right from the first glance, Suunto 9 Peak has mesmerized me with its sleek beauty, blending modern lines with a touch of classic elegance. Somewhere, the watch still exudes youthful dynamism. Moreover, the watch's frame is crafted from premium stainless steel, making the device robust and durable.

As per the reviewer on The Watch World YouTube channel, wearing the Suunto 9 Peak feels incredibly light on the wrist, weighing only about 62 grams. What's more impressive is that the watch strap is crafted from soft rubber with numerous air vents to prevent sweat buildup during long-term use or intense workouts.

However, I'm not particularly impressed with the thickness of the screen bezel on the Suunto 9 Peak, as it doesn't look very appealing. Additionally, the Suunto 9 Peak features an Active Matrix LCD with LED Backlight measuring 1.69 inches and a resolution of 240 x 240 pixels. I believe this screen size is sufficient for users to view message notifications, calls, etc.

In terms of display capabilities, Suunto 9 Peak falls short because the current fonts on the device do not support Vietnamese language formatting. Therefore, I hope the company will soon integrate this feature in upcoming updates.

On the right side of the Suunto 9 Peak, there are 3 prominently raised buttons that facilitate quick and easy operations. Specifically, the two outer buttons serve as up/down navigation keys. The middle button enables quick access to Shortcuts by holding it for 3 seconds. Pressing the up navigation button allows access to exercise modes, location tracking, workout history, stopwatch, and settings. Pressing the down navigation button provides access to features such as heart rate monitoring, blood oxygen levels, stress levels, step count, and sleep time.

Suunto 9 Peak offers a variety of workout modes and useful health tracking!

To connect Suunto 9 Peak to your phone, you can download the Suunto app from both the Google Play Store (Android) and the App Store (iOS). Then, simply connect and wait a moment for synchronization, and you're good to go!

Watches from the Suunto brand have always been famous for their highly accurate GPS positioning. This is also very useful for sports enthusiasts who require high accuracy during movement.

To verify the 'time-honored reputation' of Suunto 9 Peak's accurate GPS positioning, The Watch World YouTube channel conducted a rigorous test. Specifically, the author on this channel used the Cycling mode with GPS enabled, and the measurement results between the watch on the motorcycle and the Suunto 9 Peak showed minimal difference (5.7 Km versus 5.67 Km). After these exercises, the watch will redraw the route, as well as related health metrics such as heart rate, calorie consumption, etc.

Alongside its many outstanding features, Suunto 9 Peak also integrates over 80 sports modes such as walking, running, cycling, hiking, skiing, etc. During workouts, the device will also track metrics such as step count and map out the route.

In addition to its professional sports features, Suunto 9 Peak also offers various health monitoring functions such as heart rate monitoring, blood oxygen levels, and calorie consumption. Especially noteworthy is the Sleep Tracking feature, which provides users with sleep quality statistics and evaluations to help them adjust their sleep patterns for a deeper rest. Therefore, Suunto 9 Peak promises to bring us a healthier and more peaceful life.

According to the manufacturer's specifications, Suunto 9 Peak can be used for up to 7 days and about 14 days with continuous heart rate monitoring turned off. Additionally, this watch offers various battery modes such as Performance (18 hours), Endurance (41 hours), Ultra (79 hours), Tour (116 hours), and Custom (18 hours).

In reality, when the author on The Watch World YouTube channel used the Suunto 9 Peak in typical modes such as: Medium brightness level, exercising two basic workouts per day, enabling Performance mode, activating GPS in the most accurate mode, and receiving all notifications and calls. After 3 days, the battery dropped from 100% to 33%, averaging about 22% per day. Based on interpolation, Suunto 9 Peak can be used for over 4 and a half days with such complex modes, which is quite impressive, isn't it, folks?

Additionally, Suunto 9 Peak also supports fast charging and can be fully charged from 0 to 100% within 60 minutes. Overall, with its relatively impressive battery life and fast charging capability, Suunto 9 Peak is truly a reliable companion.

How much does Suunto 9 Peak cost? Is Suunto 9 Peak worth buying?

At Mytour, the Suunto 9 Peak is currently priced at 16 million VND (at the time of writing). In my opinion, this price is somewhat high compared to many other smartwatches on the market. Of course, with the slightly higher price, we will own a quality watch with a sleek and fashionable design, a battery life of nearly 5 days, integrated with many health and fitness tracking features, especially the highly accurate GPS positioning capability. Therefore, I think the Suunto 9 Peak is a worthwhile choice for sports enthusiasts who demand precise positioning.
