  • PositiveHohe Genauigkeit
  • PositiveUmfangreiche Pulsauswertung
  • PositiveGute Laufzeiten
  • NegativeNicht wasserdicht
  • NegativeLange GPS-Initiation
  • NegativeSchwache Ausstattung

Im Test sucht die Polar RC3 HRM zwar vergleichsweise lange nach einem GPS-Signal, die Genauigkeit ist dafür kaum zu toppen. Zudem gefallen die langen Akkulaufzeiten von rund 12 Stunden bei aktiviertem GPS. Abgesehen von der Pulsauswertung bietet die GPS-Uhr aber keine nennenswerten Sonder-Funktionen; Multisport-Optionen, Fitness-Tracking oder einen Kompass suchen Sie hier vergebens.

Rank 8 out of 14CHIP OnlineReleaseJanuary 2015

Preislich ist die Polar RC3 GPS HR ab etwa 183 Euro zu bekommen, das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis geht somit in Ordnung. Die Ergonomie ist gut und auch arbeitet die GPS-Uhr recht genau. Bei der Ausstattung kann das Modell jedoch kaum überzeugen, ebenso hätte man sich ein paar mehr Sportfunktionen gewünscht.
