Polar - the future or perhaps just the past?

As a casual user, I like polar. Software is simple in my eyes, hardware is good and has no monthly subscriptions, which is a big plus. Polar also replaced my ignite 3 after the battery failed under warranty without a fuss. European brand, Finnish to be exact. All in all I think Polar is doing good b

Polar Vantage V3 - charging time increased significantly.

I complained about this exact same issue to Polar (I was able to pinpoint the problem to cable due to wife having Ignite 3) and they sent me new one for free.

The Heartfelt "End of an Era" and Call to Action

Gosh, I thought I was the only one with a Polar addiction problem 🤭 I also feel loyal to the brand, but hear you. I got an Ignite 3 recently (to help me through a marathon without worrying about battery issues (unlike my Apple Watch), but slightly does not deliver what I thought it would, and feel a

Which Polar Watch to buy in 2025?

i went with the ignite 3. I had a vantage M (1) and didn't use a lot of the "advanced" features (altimeter, advanced tests, extra ram). I do miss the battery life. There are a lot of nice features with the newer polar watches (weather, sunrise/set info), but they sap energy and the bigger batteries

Wie Geld sparen bei Laufuhr?

Ich habe meine Forerunner 265 von Kleinanzeigen für 250€ bekommen, das wäre meine erste Anlaufstelle, falls du weniger Geld ausgegeben möchtest. Zusätzlich habe ich den OH1 Oberarmgurt von Polar. Ob man überhaupt zusätzlich zur Laufuhr noch einen weiteren Sensor braucht, ist Geschmackssache. Da du e

Welche Laufuhr verwendet ihr?

Ich benutze eine Polar ignite 3, davor hatte ich das Vorgängermodell und davor dessen Vorgängermodell. Sie kann keine eigene Musik abspielen, das Handy muss man also dafür mitnehmen. Das wäre mein einziges Manko. Sonst bin ich super zufrieden. Ich trage die Uhren 24/7 und ziehe sie nur zum Aufladen

Polar or garmin for strength training

I have tried both and I like polar more. I have ignite 3 and I love it. Only minus is the battery, I have to charge it every three days (1y 4m old watch, I'm training 4x/week). But I don't know what data I would even want from gym. 🤔 It gives me heart beat and calories, I usually don't even look at

Polar Ignite 3 - good purchase in 2024?

I use the Ignite 3 since 2 years and it is getting better with each firmware upgrade. 24/7HR plus 1 exercise session (without GPS) per day gets me 7-8 days battery life (up from 4-5 at the beginning). I love the detailed sleep report. Have added the Polar verity sense for biking, excellent pair. Hig
