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

Sports watch advice
As a happy owner of the Pacer Pro, I naturally recommend it—I do all the same sports as you, and this watch fully meets my needs. Polar is an extremely high-quality brand—all my watches from the past 25 years are still in like-new condition; they just need charging and are ready to hit the trail aga

Goodbye Polar – My farewell review of the Polar Pacer Pro
No running watch is perfect, and it matters what is most important to you and what conditions you use it in. I used to have the M430 for ages and more recently got the Pacer Pro, which has in the meanwhile aged a bit but I am quite happy with it for what I am doing (running mostly). I cannot comment

Best Polar Watch for my needs?
Based on your usage, the Polar Pacer Pro should be enough, I used it for a few months. However, I switched to the M3, because it has better GPS accuracy and since i occasionally go for a hike, the map feature is great for me. I have been using it for 8 months and love it

What watches are people using with the Polar Verity Sense?
Pacer Pro. One interesting aspect I've found since getting the Polar H10. I care less about the watch. Like I don't feel the need to upgrade the watch as the Pacer Pro is fine. No wrist optical heart rate sensor can match the Polar H10. Lots of 3rd party apps available that make the H10 even more us

Smartwatch suggestions?
Not only 1 right answer. Coros, suunto, polar are all great watches and honestly it comes down to user. I have suunto vertical which have medicore WHR, their 2nd version of vertical 2 and race 2 improved that. But coros vertix, apex 4 or pacer pro are also great options. Consider some models from po

3 Years of Faithful Service, I think my Pacer has reached EOL
My Pacer Pro died in November and I've been using a Forerunner 265 until I'm ready to drop the cash on a new Polar. Garmin has a TON of data and almost none of it is necessary or useful. The Connect interface is just cluttered with data for the sake of data. The thing I love most about Polar is the

Smartwatch reco
I have the Garmin 165 music(previously owned the 245 non music but went to the 100s series since the gps was almost the same by then) and the Amazfit active 2 (round). I also previously had the Polar Pacer Pro which was my favorite for a while till i just didn't see myself using all of the advanced

Running watch for small wrists
If you want to stay in the same ecosystem, Polar has Vantage M3 or the outdoor version Grix X2. They both have maps and both are the size of Pacer Pro.

New watch from Polar?
I always looked at the vantage m3 as the little sister to the grit x and not the vantage v because look at the buttons and band and the general shape, the pacer pro is in my opinion little sister to the vantage v, also if i have to guess, this release will be vantage m3 titanium and sice I am allrea
