New Balance are, of course, a sport and lifestyle brand perhaps best known for their footwear but they are also equally as accomplished in the sporting apparel arena so it stands to reason that they would enter the fitness smartwatch market at some point and the RunIQ Smartwatch looks to be a most impressive entry indeed.

Strava connected for excellent tracking capabilities, the New Balance RunIQ Smartwatch really does boast a multitude of impressive and eye-catching features that are sure to make it an essential purchase for the fitness inclined over the next 12 months.

Just a few of the stand out capabilities of this cracking device include the ability to track your course, pace and distance with the built-in GPS, it lets you sync, store and listen to Google Play playlists via Bluetooth™ headphones, the ability to monitor your heart rate in real time and tracking your times with one-click functionality.

Intuitive Design

There are plenty of first rate design features with the New Balance RunIQ Smartwatch that mean it is tailor made for an active lifestyle including a 5ATM water resistance which means, come rain or shine, it will stand up to whatever the elements can throw at it. Another important element of a fitness based smartwatch is the battery life and this is another area in which the RunIQ excels with up to 24hrs of regular use and 5hrs with continuous use with GPS tracking and heart rate monitoring.
