Sports Tracker / Polar WearLink with Bluetooth transmitter

Published by at

Steve Litchfield dons his sports gear and trials the new Sports Tracker application with Polar wireless heart rate monitor. Can this new version of an old favourite, in conjunction with some Bluetooth accessory magic, help you improve your workouts, whether walking, cycling or jogging? (Short answer: Yes. With bells on!)

"Just as significantly, the fabled Polar heart rate monitor belt was originally only shipped with the Nokia N79 Active and thus had a very selected audience. Now, under STT, the heart rate accessory is available to all and will connect via Bluetooth to (almost) any Symbian smartphone running the new software, whether touchscreen or non-touch. For the purposes of the review, I've been out jogging, walking and cycling with the kit, wirelessly connected to a Nokia N96."
