Clear touchscreen with useful features

The 1.28-inch (3.25 cm) AMOLED touchscreen of the Polar Grit X2 delivers sharp images with a resolution of 416 x 416 pixels. This allows you to read everything easily, even in full sunlight. The always-on display continuously shows your most important data without you having to move your wrist, while the ambient light sensor automatically adjusts the brightness. This ensures you always have good visibility, in all conditions. Furthermore, you can navigate intuitively via the touchscreen and the physical buttons, even when wearing gloves. Extra handy: the screen also functions as a flashlight with white and red LEDs, increasing your visibility and safety during early or late workouts.

Accurate GPS and smart training

This GPS watch from Polar is equipped with advanced training and recovery tools that optimize your performance. Dual-frequency GPS combines signals from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS for accurate positioning in wooded or steep terrain. Additionally, full-color offline maps and turn-by-turn navigation keep you on course without relying on your smartphone. During sports, features like Hill Splitter, Training Load Pro, and FuelWise help you to specifically manage performance and energy consumption. A barometer, compass, gyroscope, and accelerometer complete the sensor package. Via Bluetooth, you can quickly pair the watch with your smartphone and manage everything clearly in the Polar Flow app.

Advanced health tracking and battery

You continuously measure heart rate (Gen 4 OHR), ECG, SpO2, and skin temperature, accurately tracking your recovery and condition. This data helps you to better tailor workouts and avoid overtraining. The battery lasts up to 7 days in smartwatch mode, 30 hours in performance training, and up to 90 hours in eco mode. Charging is easy via the included Polar Charge 2.0 USB-C cable. Finally, you can use the Polar Grit X2, thanks to its WR50 water resistance, without worry during a rain shower or swim session.
