Polar Vantage M3: 5 things I like about this sporty adventure GPS watch and 3 things I don’t

The Vantage M3 is the latest smartwatch from everyone’s favorite Finnish smart wearable brand, Polar (not to be confused with the U.S. streetwear brand by the same name). A mid-range GPS sports watch geared toward outdoor adventure enthusiasts, it joins the Polar lineup just below the flagship Vantage V3 and Grit X2 Pro.

I just started testing the Polar Vantage M3 for our official TG review and my initial impressions are largely positive. For the money, $399, the M3 boasts features and specs often reserved for higher-end wearables, like offline maps, dual-band GPS, multiple days of battery life, advanced training tools, and an abundance of holistic/workout tracking sensors.
