Polar Vantage V3 In-Depth Review: The Comeback Kid?

The Polar Vantage V3 is arguably the most important product for the company in at least a decade, if not ever. It’s no secret that Polar has had a rough last few years, as it struggles to find its footing in a world of big-tech companies releasing ever more powerful smartwatches, while their endurance sports competitors do the same with a different take. But the Vantage V3 seems positioned to finally turn that tide.

It’s the first time we’ve seen Polar implement on-wrist mapping into a watch, the first time they’ve put a brilliant AMOLED display into an endurance-focused watch, and the first time they’ve put dual-frequency/multiband GPS into watches focused on the hardcore audience.
