Garmin Forerunner 305 Review (part 1) – What’s in the box?
I’ve always been a Polar heart rate monitor user before but having not been best pleased that the strap broke on my RS400sd after less than a year, I decided to buy a Garmin Forerunner 305.
I carried out a lot of research online before buying my Polar RS400sd last year – and on the whole every comparison I saw was Polar vs Garmin. And it boiled down to one thing – footpod technology vs GPS technology.
