Android CentralMay 2022
A light, quick running watch full of free training data for runners and triathletes; heart rate and distance matched a Garmin worn alongside.
-
T3May 2022
A dependable multisport watch for Polar fans, though it looks and feels dated next to newer rivals and GPS distance was sometimes well off.
-
AdvntureJun 2022
Familiar for Polar users and strong on training and recovery tools, with very precise GPS, but battery is short for the price.

the5krunnerApr 2022
Ticks the boxes for runners and triathletes at a fair price; GPS above average, but wrist heart rate was patchy off road and on the bike.
