After 90 days, I’ve realized my Whoop HR data is completely useless.
I did something similar: H10, Whoop 5.0 MG and Coros Pacer Pro - Whoop was around 10-15% under the values of Polar and Coros. It was OK up to 150!HF - issues started there. Polar/Coros showing 182 and Whoop 165-174...

Undocumented reset procedure - anyone used it?
The reset procedure works, but it is super finicky. Timing matters, too. I once had to use it because I experienced a boot loop. But it won't help with the continuous HR tracking dropouts. That seems to be a general synchronization issue with Pacer (Pro) unfortunately. I've had it happen a couple of

Polar Pacer as Heart Rate Sensor?
Just tried on my phone (I have a Pacer Pro but don't really use Beat) and .. no... HRM doesn;t show and the screen says I should "Use a Polar heart rate sensor for a better experience" so maybe it doesn't show live HR off the watch but only off a strap.... which does seem a little strange if perhaps

Suunto Race for Mtb
Not really - I have used an Instinct and a Polar Pacer Pro and am looking for a more durable build. I know the Suunto would give me that. I've also read a bunch about the hit-and-miss HR tracking but I didn't need to ask about it since there is a plethora of posts and reviews out there already. Has

Polar flow stopped displaying heart rate graph
Donno if its hardware flaw or what, I've seen soooo many Pacers and Pacer Pros have this issue.. Just check it around in reddit. Mine Pacer Pro, first encountered this just after it went out of warrenty, and the ONLY WAY to mitigate it is do a factory reset of the watch (no matter from where: the wa

Goodbye Polar – My farewell review of the Polar Pacer Pro
As I've mentioned, a comparison between runs on the same route would be nice to help me understand my running performance. I can see how my criticism was not very accurate – apologies. I am being honest in saying that I found the Pacer Pro to have shortcomings that I found annoying – and the H10 wor

Good omen?
Hhmmm bit disappointed. My 2 big issues: Not using Elixer sensor. Old Precision Prime from devices like Pacer Pro From the looks, can't use Polar H10 for more accurate height rate. Its basically the Polar 360 B2B device with a slightly larger battery & less plastic. That feels a bit conservative to

Polar Verity Sense questions
You are not alone, very annoying. Mine is from early 2023 and has the same problem. You have to always keep an eye on battery level or you might find that it won't turn on.I must say I am a bit dissapointed at Polar for this kind of things, you pay premium for a well know brand and get average resul

Polar Pacer to Polar Vantage M3
Yeah, I'd get an h10. Polar Pacer Pro heart rate is well off compared to the H10 when I'm working out.

Plar Vantage V3 the worst yet
Polar V800 was very much ok. Problem is the software architecture. I lost seceral runs longer then 20km’s because of crashes. On different models (Pacer pro, V3). Happens when you have Maps, nutrition and other alerts and try too much interactions Second problem is integration with training platform
