"Join the movement"
From the tag line, I'd guess it's more of an activity tracker than a sport watch.

Never been a fanboy in my entire life, but just realized I am kind of a Garmin fanboy. Activity trackers are 'meh' for me, more of a gimmick.

I'm hoping for a swimming hr belt, just like the one Garmin has.

sooooo......what's the over/under on how long it will take for them to actually implement the features they'll advertise it has having?
maybe 18 months like the v800?

Polar's HRM technology (GymLink) has always worked under water, so the standard H7 heart rate strap works fine for swimming.
See, e.g., https://flow.polar.com/...g/analysis/718054419
(somewhat tongue in cheek, given the results.)

Oh I know. But the heart rate strap doesn't stay on my body when I'm doing flip turns and fast sprints in masters sets.

No shit on the gimmick thing.
Every friend I know who has an activity tracking device has figured out how to make it record more than what they're doing.........and they make it do that.
SMH.............
