If you are a lover of outdoor sports, surely you know or already have the latest and most innovative watch from the Finnish company. The Polar V800. A watch designed for multisport with integrated GPS. If you also have a iPhone, you are in luck.
You know who's calling by looking at the clock
El Polar V800 It is designed for both indoor and outdoor sports activities, configurable by the user. It also stands out for being the first to incorporate an activity monitor in the watch itself. Does it sound familiar?
If you have the PolarV800, you have Polar Flow, the app necessary to synchronize your sports activities saved on your watch. Now and thanks to the new Firmware of the watch, it has incorporated the smart notifications. You will get the same notifications on your watch as those shown on the screen of your iPhone, deciding if the call or message is important enough to stop the training.
So do I buy the Apple Watch?
Well, like everything in life, it depends. If what you are looking for is an exhaustive control of your sports and daily activity and notifications are a secondary aspect, the answer is No.
If you are one of those iPhone It fumes and also you do not mind that I monitor your daily activity and from time to time the sports you do, the answer is a resounding yes.
Notifications in the Polar V800 They are very limited and not in terms of apps, because I have verified that they are received from all of them, as long as you have activated the function on the watch and enabled the preview on the iPhone. However, if the message you receive is an emoticon or contains more than two lines of text, you will have to reach for the phone because you will not be able to view it completely. If you receive calls you can accept or reject but not speak. If you want to initiate a call or message from the watch, I'm afraid you won't be able to either.
It is logical, the Polar V800 It is designed for very demanding athletes, who need to monitor their training as much as possible, but there is no doubt that having these notifications is an extra help.
On the other hand the Apple Watch is designed for those users who do not want to be looking at the screen of the iPhone every 10 seconds and be able to answer messages from the w de Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),. It is also much more beautiful than the Polar, which is not bad either.
Will I buy the Apple Watch?
The answer is yes. Me Polar to run and my Apple Watch for everything else.
PS Do not think that I am an elite athlete, it is that SSMMRR Magicians were very good to me 😉
