It's available for preorder today. Gadgets help me stay on track
I need to mainly watch my heart rate n have several health issues. Spend time in the pool. The polar a360 is waterproof so I'll be able to use it in the pool.

    I really want to try this, but I think I'll wait to see how the reviews are once people have a chance to use them in action. If it's all good though, I'll be getting one. I love my older Polar HRM. Would be nice to get rid of that chest strap though :smiley: And being able to wear in water, rain, and track everything. I think it would be worth it.

    It's very tempting...but no GPS....Very stylish, If I ordered, I'd definitely also order one of the Tory Burch accessories for it too...lol!

    No GPS, but I think Polar is much more geared to heart rate monitoring than something like a FitBit. I'm just waiting to make sure the accuracy is there. I think it's such a huge part of the Polar brand that they'd be silly to let it slip, but with the wrist monitor... well, for me the jury is still out. I definitely want to hear some expert reviews once people can actually try one out and not just base a review off the specs.

    I agree...my wallet won't be opening until I hear enough "great testimonials" to make it worth it....
