Why did you choose Polar? Looking for arguments to stay in the ecosystem before upgrading

I have just H10 from Polar that I use with a cheap Garmin watch that I got on a whim without doing much research. I'm not going to replace it just yet while it still works, but my next watch is probably going to be a Polar, for both accuracy and science and sport focus (whereas Garmin seems to care

Still worth buying a Polar watch (at discount)

Sleep tracking is very good and reliable, I almost never loose a night's sleep data and the associated ANS data. What's cool with Polar is the sensor is basically the same from the Vantage range and up. So you can get a Vantage M3 and you get the same performance as a Grit X2 Pro... what changes is

Hardloophorloge

Ja zelf al een tijd heel erg tevreden met een polar m430 en nu een polar pacer pro, partner is met de vantage M3 ook heel blij. Vind het wel een fijn idee dat het een Europees bedrijf is en je data ook binnen Europa blijft.

Polar fitness watch recommendations for women

At the moment, Polar Vantage M3 is the best offer from Polar. I would recommend doing a research about it and deciding if you want Polar at all. Research well brand specifics, tracking capabilities, and so on. Polar is nice but has its downsides, like weak update policies and some people may find th

Thema Uhr

Ich habe aktuell eine Forerunner 265 und überlege zurück zu Polar (Vantage M3 oder Grit X2) zu wechseln. Meine Vorgängeruhr war die Vantage M die mir 5 Jahre lang gute Dienste geleistet hat bis der Akku aufgegeben hat. Bei den aktuellen Polar Modellen kann der Aklu getauscht werden, außerdem hat die

Suunto Run - Worth It?

It's a great watch for your needs. Ridiculous value! A lot of people on Reddit are crying over this or that with Suunto right now. But don't let a very vocal minority steer you away from a very good option. Depending on where you are and deals, you might be able to find either the Race/Race S or eve

Loop megathread

Software: Seems like Polar has noted the feedback and are rolling out a major upgrade on the Flow app. Is there a date range or timeline provided? Hardware: General consensus is the loop looks better than the Amazfit. Are people happy with their Loop after all the firmwares rolled out? Is it perform

Watch for someone who has an apple watch but hated Garmin

I actually switched from AW to 265s and loved it especially because of the buttons. It’s less of a modern smartphone like gadget experience and more of a classic digital watch thing with a nicer screen. I recently tried a Polar Vantage M3 at Amsterdam marathon expo. It seemed like a better offer on

Polar Vantage M3 vs Garmin 265

The Vantage M3 is absolutely marvelous. Fantastic GPS, screen, battery life, and heart rate accuracy. I also trust Polar more because they publish studies on their algorithms.
