    Polar V800: Smart, Do-it-all GPS Training Watch

    Jason MitchellBy Jason MitchellJanuary 6, 2014No Comments2 Mins Read

    At CES today, Polar officially launched their all-new V800 training watch. This new watch aims to solve some of the problems that plague other training watches by packing everything an athlete could want into a wearable and technology-packed package. The watch offers sleek, sexy styling and uses Bluetooth Smart for wireless syncing to mobile devices or laptops and accessories.

    Targeted at the swim/bike/run crowd, the new V800 looks to be a fantastic option for cycling or running purists as well. Initial wearability and function look good. And, while the Suunto Ambit 2S is quite the watch, but the V800 looks to one-up the Ambit on several levels. All the new technology could prove to be initially buggy, but nothing that early-adopters aren’t used to. It’s definitely a cool new watch and I’m anxious to see one in person at Outdoor Retailer later this month.

    A native of the Pacific Northwest, Jason quickly developed a love for the outdoors and a thing for mountains. That infatuation continues as he founded this site in 1999 -- sharing his love of road biking, mountain biking, trail running and skiing. That passion is channeled into every article or gear review he writes. Utah's Wasatch Mountains are his playground.
