Complete freeze at exactly 1500m

Backslashhh over 5 years ago

Firmware 4.0 , complete factory reset. No CIQ apps and widgets. Set height display on a standard watch face.

Today I took the cable car to the mountain top.Watch crashed hard at exactly 1500m ... coincidence?

I just love all these new bugs... /s

It's only a "bug" if a problem with the software introduces a fault due to improper programming. I'm on 4.00 and went to Paradise Park (1646m) on Mount Rainier…

Appears so based on my experience.

yees.... it's an old known defect. Have seen this multiple times on 935 and 945 during multiple ultratrail races. Actually, during every race I've done last year, I had some kind of problems with Garmin watch - frozen, restaring... it's so frustrating. Being an old customer of Garmin I'm now almost done on replacing 945 with Suunto. So sad.

Yeah that Suunto 7 looks so inviting.
