It’s rare that a firmware update is intriguing. Welcome; perhaps. Tardy; perhaps. Feature-full; perhaps. But ‘intriguing’, c’mon!
Polar’s M450 is ‘preparing for upcoming software releases’ (below). I’m not sure why the firmware couldn’t be released at the same time as the ‘upcoming software releases’. Presumably this upcoming stuff will be on Flow? It could be on the Flow Sync – but that was updated recently anyway.
Perhaps it is a portent of things to come? Partly heralding significant new changes in the New Year? New models? New, improved Polar Flow? Or just finally STRAVA-link working!
