The Polar Street X is designed for city dwellers, but I’m not sure Polar has given them what they want

The Polar Street X is a mid-range smartwatch that is successful in delivering a number of high-end features, but solid implementation is not present across the board. I was disappointed by the user interface, and navigation around menus using the buttons was unintuitive and difficult. More positively, the watch offers an extensive set of metrics across training and health with an accurate GPS that matched our benchmark in testing. I only wish the GPS locked on more quickly.

Reasons to buy

+Accurate GPS
+Good range of activity tracking
+Solid heart rate measurements
+Robust design

-Long button presses are frustrating
-Poorly designed user interface
