Twelve years after introducing the original Loop, the Finnish fitness wearables manufacturer Polar is re-launching its activity-tracking wristband in a reimagined form.
When the first Loop debuted in 2013, it was well before the smartwatch boom and at the height of the step-counting craze. The Loop featured a slim band with a small LED display that showed steps, calories, time and daily progress. It also tracked daily activity and sleep, delivered inactivity alerts, and could be paired with a Polar heart rate strap for more accurate workout data.
