What happened to Polar?
Polar's problems are bigger than the US, and their decline significantly predates the current US administration. Long story short: they stopped innovating. Flow hasn't seen any real updates in a decade; entire product lines (e.g. cycling computers) have been canceled, the software in their devices i

Polar - the future or perhaps just the past?
I’d like to point out that Polar has been struggling for several years now and has actually had to lay off a significant portion of its staff and make various financial cuts (which is why there’s a common system across different watch models). I’m convinced that if Polar continues down this path wit

From pre-order to massive disappointment: firmware updates ruined connectivity
Well, the main matter is that even when it works the way it should it does not offer anything more or better than the competition but usually less and worse. When it comes to Amazfit Helio strap, Google Fitbit Air, Garmin Cirqua or Whoop, you can think of something that would give any of these devic

Help finding new watch
Since you're talking about dollars, I assume you're in the US. Polar's US pricing model is insane (unless you are buying a Loop, which is prices "normal" relative to Canadian pricing). So basically buying direct from Polar (or Amazon who will sell at MSRP) is off the table. Because you'll get way mo

Loop megathread
Since the new update my polar loop gen 2 is missing heart rate for periods of time of different lengths. Have some of you noticed something similar? I have kept it constantly on my wrist.

Apple Watch to Polar Loop, day 1 – Surprisingly good
Workout auto detection on the Apple Watch operates on movement patterns, not heart rate spikes. The watch looks for a specific, consistent motion sustained for a certain period of time, on the Apple Watch 11 it’s roughly ten minutes, before it triggers an automatic workout notification but it also t

Polar - the future or perhaps just the past?
I used to think Polar was a premium brand on the same level as Garmin. That changed after I tried the Polar Loop. At this point, the only things really keeping Polar relevant are the huge amount of historical data they’ve collected and the H10 chest strap, which is still seen as the gold standard. T

Not a Polar boy anymore :(
The Loop is also a mess, what a headache of a device, Polar really stinks with some devices, my H10 is perfectly fine
