Meanwhile, the original Polar Grit X will get most of these features at the end of the year (see the end of this section for the full list). Virtually all of these new ones get added to the Vantage V2 on October 20th in a firmware update. Still, there are some brand-new features not yet seen on other Polar devices. However, others were introduced this past spring on the Polar Ignite 2 (such as Heart Rate broadcasting). Most of these features are ones that Polar has introduced on other watches over the past year, primarily from the Vantage V2 last fall. The Polar Grit X Pro & Grit X Pro Titan add a number of new features compared to the original Grit X.

Within the new software features, Polar has added new dashboards that appeal to the outdoors realm, including a daylight dashboard, as well as an altimeter & compass dashboard. And then the Grit X Pro Titan, which includes all those same new features and new look – but also a lower weight and leather strap. It technically comes in two flavors – the base Grit X Pro which includes not only a new look, but a pile of new software features. Polar has announced a handful of new watches today, but the main headliner is the new Polar Grit X Pro.
