Polar have confirmed to me that the M430 running watch has indeed got new innards. Obviously the optical HR gave away the fact that something had changed internally 😉 Well, the GPS chip has also been updated to the same one as used by the V800 (SiRFstar IV) – generally renowned for good GPS accuracy.…
Today’s announcement of the A370 sports & fitness band does not come as a surprise. Indeed two events mark a coincidence but 3 mark a trend. The A370 is the 3rd such event, being preceded by the M430 running watch and the M460 cycling watch/head unit (review here). You could even add the Polar H10…

Taking out the navigational side of things all the units have quite similar functionality. Polar are sticking with the BLE only world of communication with sensors. This restricts the ability…
Polar have just teased the M460 cycling computer (here). It has already been listed and removed from some online shops, albeit with no details that I saw.
