Need help for my first watch
Polar Ignite is still perfectly fine as a software machine, but there are 2 buts... 1) Buying such an old used device you risk battery life to be 1-2 days pretty soon and it's not replaceable; 2) If you're serious about tracking your fitness, some external device like a Verity Sense or H9, H10 chest

Kas kannad igapäevaselt käekella? Tavalist või nuti/spordikella? Pange nt kommentaariumisse, et mis kella või miks vms (sest no tavalise kella puhul nt see, et telo ju kogu aeg olemas).
Garmin Forerunner 970 kannan 24/7 enda aktiivsuse ja sporditegevuste mõõtmiseks. Alustasin kunagi Polar Ignite seeria spordikellaga, siis tekkis rumal tahtmine moodsa nutikella peale üle minna ja otsin Samsung Galaxy Watchi. Üsna kiiresti sain aru, et mul ei ole 90% sellest "nutikusest" vaja ning ig

Polar Ignite 3 battery drain + false % after latest update — anyone else?
My Ignite 3 had the same problem. I tried everything: restarted it, factory reset, recalibrated the battery, and nothing, it seems to have only gotten worse. Finally, I contacted Polar and sent it to technical support. I just received a quote of R$ 1,620 (US$ 300) for the repair: "MODULE PRESENTS LO

Polar Ignite 3 battery drain + false % after latest update — anyone else?
Die Ignite 3 meiner Frau hat das gleiche Problem, alles direkt nach dem Update, nach Kontakt mit Polar heißt es nur, Uhr einsenden, die machen einen Kostenvorschlag, ca 270€ für Reparatur, von einem Softwarefehler wollen die nichts wissen. Wäre nicht das erste Mal, dass bei einem Update ein Bug eing

What advantages does Polar have over Amazfit?
I feel Polar has the better algorithms and since I've been using Polar watches and chest straps for many years, I'm kinda ingrained in Polar's ecosystem. However, each of these Polar products started having issues within 2-3 years, charging and connection problems mostly. I even had to replace eithe

Help me choose -- Polar Vantage M3 vs Coros Pace Pro
New battery for the m430 (can be found on Amazon or AliExpress) and a friend or shop capable of handling small electronics to change it for you (it's not hard for someone with those skills, literally unscrew, open, remove (pop loose) 2 metal plates from a plastic holder, take off and resolder new ba

Polar Pacer pulse sensor failed after 3 3/4 years
Had something like 2-3 years with Polar Ignite earlier, battery went too bad. Would like to see much more years but in this consumerism it is what it is. Probably won't buy anymore these watches (other brands included) unless training goal-oriented in the future
