Polar A370 Review
The Polar A370 isn't particularly flashy, but it's good at what it does. It excels as a sports watch for training and tracking workouts, thanks in part to an accurate optical heart rate monitor. It tells you how different activities affect your body, whether you complete an easy recovery run or a cardio-intense fitness class. And sure, it offers all-day activity tracking and notifications from your phone for good measure. Yes, there are better and sleeker all-day fitness trackers out there, but not at the A370's price point ($149.95). If you're primarily looking for a sports watch to be your companion while training, it'll make you very happy.
Design, Comfort, and Battery Life
The Polar A370 is nearly identical in style to the device it replaces, the A360. Both are waterproof and have a rectangular face with a micro USB slot on the back for charging (hooray for non-proprietary chargers!). The A370 weighs the same, too, at 1.1 ounces for size S and 1.3 ounces for M/L. You can swap...
The fairly priced Polar A370 isn't the most attractive fitness tracker, but it records training sessions and daily activities with aplomb.
