Full Analysis

The Suunto 9 is a Fitness Watches product from Suunto. Suunto Oy is a Finnish company that manufactures and markets sports watches, dive computers, compasses and precision instruments. Headquartered in Vantaa, Finland, Suunto employs more than 300 people worldwide, and its products are sold in over 100 countries. Although globally active, the headquarters is placed next to the factory in which most of the work stages are still handcrafted. Suunto was a subsidiary of Amer Sports, owned since 2019 by the Chinese group Anta Sports, with sister brands Wilson, Atomic, Sports Tracker, Salomon, Precor, and Arc'teryx. In May 2022, Chinese technology company Liesheng acquired Suunto from Amer Sports. Heart rate readings during interval training track closely against a chest strap in casual comparisons. The always-on display is genuinely readable in direct sunlight, not just indoors. Our editorial team scores it 3.6/5 based on typical specs, feature set, and price-to-value for this category, alongside 1079 community ratings, making it a solid, dependable pick with a few tradeoffs within smartwatches.

Our Verdict

At approximately $253.99, the Suunto 9 lands as a solid, dependable pick with a few tradeoffs. If solid build quality for the price matters most to you, it is worth shortlisting alongside other fitness watches.
