It packs in many of the high-end features you usually only find on much more expensive products from other brands such as Garmin. One of the features we really liked is the customisable home-screen. This allows you to select up to 4 of your most-viewed training values and have them shown on one single screen. You could for example show distance, time, heart rate and calories on this screen, saving you from scrolling the menus while training (in our experience, most other training watches do not have this feature, which means you have to scroll the menus to see this information while you train).The heart rate monitor is very sensitive and does not have to be strapped on very tightly in order to provide an accurate reading - something we like, as other HRMs we have used tend to be quit
