Are there any good EU based smart wrist bands?

So Polar Loop is a smart wrist band but without a screen. If you want a sport watch then Polar Pacer Pro. I don't really get what you mean a smart wrist with a screen

I am new to Polar, very disappointed. What am I missing?

Pacer Pro about 4 years old, what did you expect? Everyone complains about PolarFlow. The watch won't make you a better runner( if thats what you do)

Polar Smart Gadgets | Finland Company

I'm a marathon runner so Polar Pacer Pro was not enough for me, but Polar Vantage V3 is more than I could've expected. The best thing is that I run with my 2 other friends. One have Garmin, next one Corros and they were complaining about the ugliness of sport watches. They've looked at mine (blue Va

My takes on the swap. I’m happy overall but it’s not d

3 Years of Faithful Service, I think my Pacer has reached EOL

Mine Pacer PRO is 3y6m old and except for unreliable/slow charging (for half of its life) is still doing fine. I chose to go with Polar around 5-6 years ago not because it was the best for my needs, but because others were worse. Still feel the same today. If it goes kaput, I will still choose Polar

Polar Street X or Vantage M3

I got Vantage V3 (not M3) and im in love. Every struggle I've had with my Polar Pacer Pro (which seems that Street X is kinda Polar Pacer Pro 2.0) has been solved. Dual GPS, better kcal assumptions (finally I believe them), actual weather and touchscreen. So I don't know if you can affor V3 (and if

Street X megathread

Nice improvment compared to pacer pro. There is temperature measurement, orthostatic test, recovery pro and leg recovery test which are the features that ppp has not. Also Street X supports cycling sensors which is nice for those who needs it. The manual Street X | Polar Global

I counted the wearables devices on my Strava feed this morning

Surprised by Polar not even making the list as a (I guess alone) Polar Pacer Pro user
