Polar remains financially stable, but its equity ratio has fallen from 75% to 45% in three years.

All that reflects is people seem willing to pay those prices. As we all know, Garmin is really on a roll. Polar is anemic to the extent it doesn’t seem to get out regular software updates, new products. The Loop is a rehash of an earlier business offering with key software issues. So sorry but Polar

Polar ignite 2

Hello, My wife uses Ignite 2, and the 2nd device goes wrong nowadays. After about 2 years, the first one faced the known swipe problem, where swiping sideway wasn't registered. The button worked, but couldn't change datascreen. Polar changed it in warranty. Now, after about 2 years usage, the 2nd de

When are we gonna see phase 2 of the android app?

Ignite 3 countdown timer not functional any more either after its firmware update in spring. Polar aren't going to fix these imo, and if they do their indifference to customers who supported them is already obvious. It's starting to feel like they are in a death spiral... Or should I say a death Loo

Is Ignite 3 enough or should I go with Vantage M3/V3?

about the life time of the battery...

Same for me. The battery of my Ignite 3 Titanium basically died after 3 years and it can't be replaced. I have to charge the watch every day now and it drops from 100% to 56% within minutes. I have used Polar products for over 10 years but this watch is my last Polar product. A watch in this price r

Polar Ignite 3 battery drain + false % after latest update — anyone else?

Mine works fine after the update. But I have had a sudden drop in the battery life on my previous Ignite 3, sent it to polar to get diagnosed/fixed but ended up getting a new unit in its place. It drained 80+ percent of the battery in just one night. Guess the battery failed without any warning sign
