The new sports watch from Polar is great looking and should be fine for every regular runner. It comes in at a decent price and includes a lot of options. Next to the general functions such as GPS, speed, pace and a wrist heart rate monitor it is an activity tracker, it calculates the VO2max, has a color screen and connected to your watch it shows notifications. Additionally, it is measuring your nightly recharge and recommends how to train based on these recovery results. However, it has a lot of flaws, mostly caused by some radical choices made in the design process both for the hard- and software. Nevertheless, it covers most important options.
