FIRST LOOK! Testing The BRAND NEW Polar Grit X | New Outdoor GPS Smartwatch To Rival Garmin?

6th May 2020

There are so many GPS running watches on the market it’s hard to know what is the best for runners! At The Running Channel we were given the chance to test the BRAND NEW Polar Grit X Outdoor GPS Smartwatch to put it through its paces and report back. This is an independent review, and we have not been paid by Polar to make this video.

Anna has been out for a first look test with the Polar Grit X, taking a look at all of the latest features like Hill Splitter, Fuel Wise, route planning with Komoot, route guidance, and FitSpark training guides to name a few!

In this video, Anna compares the product with her tried-and-tested Garmin Fenix 6s Sapphire, noting the pros and cons! Investing in the right sports watch can really elevate your running performance, so it’s important to research and make sure you get what you’re paying for!

All products are loaned to The Running Channel, not individual presenters. They are on long term loan and not gifted.
