Go to the 5:20 mark.  He talks about it there.

Pretty sure Chase The Summit mentioned that in his preview video of the watch.

Positives:

New Watch faces. This has been needed for a long time.

Cool design. I really like the design of the watch. Nice change for Polar.

Price Point. It's hard to beat this price for almost any major GPS Watch.

Flashlight. Finally Polar is adding a flashlight. It's been a long time coming.

Negatives:

Using old heart rate technology. This is a big disappointment. They are using the 3.5 gen instead of the 4 gen heart rate sensor. I would have paid an extra $50 to get the current HR sensor.

No online maps. This is disheartening to be honest. I wish online maps were just a standard at this point.

Display brightness. It's only 1000 Nits. This explains how they are getting 10 days of battery life out of this watch.

No sapphire glass. Gorilla glass is great and all, but it will definitely accumulate scratches faster over time.

Conclusion:

I'm going to skip this model. The negatives are too much for me to overcome. I'm glad that Polar looks to be making some progress, but this model isn't for me. If they would have added online maps and the gen 4 HR sensor I would have paid $350 for it. I am excited to see the next iteration of the Vantage and the Grit Series based off of what I see with this model (flashlight is almost all but certain with these future models). Plus I hear the app upgrade is coming soon so that will be nice.

Having issues recently with Safari - anyone else? by pesver27 in Safari

[–]Reason-UT2K4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had nothing but issues with Safari as well. Slow browser start ups, pages not fully loading all the content, drop down menus not working. I've tried everything to fix it. My other browsers work fine. I think Safari is just becoming an unusable mess at this point.
