Polar recently introduced its new Vantage series of fitness smartwatches, with prices ranging from $279 for the Vantage M to $499 for Vantage V.
Borrowing its design from Garmin’s Vivoactive 3, the Vantage series dropped its bulky design for a sleek look with a 1.2-inch round display, circular cases, and three side buttons. The more affordable Vantage M is designed for users who have active social lifestyle. Vantage V, for its part, is for serious fitness buffs, as it carries few extra sensors and features that are absent in the Vantage M.
Polar boasts that its Vantage V and Vantage M can effectively monitor heart rate with the help of its new Polar’s new Precision Prime optical heart rate monitoring, the company’s latest version of its pulse-capturing technology. Polar’s new design is very different from other optical heart rate monitors. The watch has nine LED lights underneath and four bioimpedance sensors that resemble tiny watch batteries that effectively monitor heart rate.
