I got the RS300X four weeks ago and it’s really awesome. I can now monitor my heart rate, calories burned, distance and speed. It gives me motivation to keep going. I highly recommend.

Nobody loves the Polar Brand more than I do. Actually since 1995 I haven’t used any other brand. I have always used the basic model to get the largest screen and font. At the White Rock Expo 12/09 in Dallas I purchased the RS300x w/ the foot pod.
Pros: + the foot pod is incredibly accurate, much better than any GPS technology that you can afford
+ nice looking watch / monitor (although I don’t use mine as a watch)
+ chest strap will fit smaller chests ( my children can use the new chest strap)
+ heart rate registers without recording so you can read your heart rate prior to or after your run but it doesn’t skew your run data.
Cons: -With 3 lines of text on each screen, You cant read the screen during a run. Particularly the tenths of miles. (This blows the whole deal, what’s the point of info you can’t read)
-too many screens to go through, just overly complicated a good thing.
What is the value of all that information that you can’t read during a run. I get home from a run and realize the thing wasn’t on.
There should be a way to opt out of some of the bologna. 99% of athletes don’t need that info and don’t want it.
I still love Polar and I’m still trying to love the RS300 but its not easy. I guess it like buying a book and when you get home you realize the font is too small to read.

I have had this for about one month and it is great. It is the first time I have owned a watch like this and it is excellent.
Pros – I would suspect it provides as detailed info as possible as it asked for age, height, weight, and sex. Watch is not ugly so I can wear it at work. It is pretty easy to use. While you have to/should take it to a Polar Dealer or mail it to Polar to change the battery in the watch (not uncommon for these things), I love the fact that you can put the watch in sleep mode to conserve battery power.
Cons – easy to use but not so easy you could pop it out of the box and strap it on. But one read of the manual should be enough. The funtion keys and menu are okay but could be easier.
The one thig I with it could be is give me a read-out of calories burned while I am actually working out. For example, if I want to burn 400 calories in a workout I can’t check while I am working out. I would need to stop my session and then read it. Minor issues though, I would buy this again in a second.

This is a great watch for exercise, now I know my heart rate when I go jogging or during spinning bike sessions. I’ve been using it for some time and it’s pretty good. It’s also compatible with Footpot and GPS, just in case I want to use those features in the future. At the moment, everything works as expected.

A good watch, almost identical to the 200 series. If you don’t need the latest in download capabilities, and you are not an Ironman, this is probably all you will ever need.
