New TomTom Sports Watch Models Come With Built-in HRM
TomTom has recently announced the launch of the Runner Cardio and Multi-Sport Cardio GPS sport watches in Singapore.
Eliminating the need for a separate chest strap, both watches accurately measure heart rate with a Mio optical sensor via a built-in Heart Rate Monitor (HRM) which monitors changes in blood flow by shining light through the skin.
The Runner Cardio allows one to train in the optimal heart rate zone as they can select one of five intensity zones to match their training goals and will receive alerts to know whether they need to speed up or slow down. Runners can see real-time heart rate, distance, pace and other essential running information at a glance, while running. The Multi-Sport Cardio offers additional capabilities for cycling and swimming activities.
The TomTom Runner Cardio and Multi-Sport Cardio GPS sport watches are priced at S$449 and S$499 respectively.
