Polar has announced a software update for its premium multisport watch Polar Vantage V3, which includes very interesting new functions.
With this new feature, you'll be able to retrace your steps on any map, which will be especially useful if you get lost or want to make sure you don't miss anything on your route.
Vertical speed lets you know your uphill and downhill speed, which can help you improve your performance in trail running or other outdoor training.
VAM is a measure of your average climb speed over a 30-second interval. It is a good indicator of your ability to climb hills and can be useful to compare yourself with other athletes.
3D speed calculates your real speed taking into account the slope of the terrain. This gives you a more accurate picture of your performance than traditional speed, which doesn't take gradient into account.
If you have a Strava subscription, you will be able to create routes and they will automatically sync with your Polar Vantage V3.
With this function, you can easily follow the route on your watch when you go for a walk, run or bike route and you will always know where you are and where you are going.
We already knew that Polar Vantage V3 was an incredibly attractive and powerful watch, but now we have an award to prove it.
Polar Vantage V3 just received an iF DESIGN AWARD in the watch/jewelry category.
An award-winning design with the best features:
With its Nordic-inspired design, Polar Vantage V3 offers the perfect balance of simplicity, functionality and durability for those who feel and behave like an athlete, ideal for both sports performance and everyday use.
