Suunto Novo Honest Review – Dive Tested by a Novice

By Rouge Diver On Mar 12, 2019

Thought I would give you my rookie impressions of my new Suunto Novo. I am a novice diver (2 years) and what I thought of the dive computer on my first dive trip using it.

Having learned to dive late in life I made up for it in my first year by clocking up 120+ open water dives in places from the UK to Australia. I went from a non diver to a technical deco diver in 9 months and loved every second of it. Since having kids not been able to travel as much so spend my time watching videos and reminiscing, hope you enjoy my site as much as I have making it.

Nice review!
I got my OWD this week and I am thinking about buying a dive computer.
This review helped a lot and gave me a very good idea about all functions and it’s quality.

Thank you 🙂

Good job doing the review. None of the other review of this computer I've seen shows the nice logging feature

Nice review. I have this computer as well and you pointed out a feature I didn't know with the up button and seeing all of the assent. Pretty cool. Going to be diving in the next day or two will test that out.

Thanks for this. That’s quite cool that it shows the depth graph. Definitely considering getting one as my first dive computer. Cheers

Thanks for the video. I am considering the Novo to replace my old dive computer. I have a question for you. Can you change the units to show the depth in ft while still showing the temperature in Celsius?

30 degrees? woah you're lucky, I'd love to dive in such warm water, I'm currently thinking of getting an upgraded computer, I'm using the mares puck pro, and I'm considering either mares smart, suunto zoop novo, or aqualung i200. All of them cost around 200 euros where I live, but I haven't made my mind yet. One big thing I like this models is they show you the daytime underwater, and as an Instructor I need this to be on time with my customers and students. My dream watch was cressi newton, but it won't tell you the time underwater
