Loop

Polar's problems are bigger than the US, and their decline significantly predates the current US administration. Long story short: they stopped innovating. Flow hasn't seen any real updates in a decade; entire product lines (e.g. cycling computers) have been canceled, the software in their devices i

To me, the Polar brand was the gold standard of accuracy, but I have felt that the Loop (when worn on the wrist) lacked accuracy compared to my Apple Watch. Plus, I got used to haptic alarms, which the Loop is lacking. I went back to the watch. I then started experimenting with biceps bands and conf

I rarely write posts like this, but this one deserves it. This is my honest review 6 months after buying it (yes, i was one of the guys trusting Polar with this new product straightaway). I bought the Polar Loop thinking I’d get a simple, minimal, screen-free tracker. What I got instead is a frustra

The actual calories should be somewhere in between the two values. Generally speaking, Garmin tends to understimate while Polar trends to overestimate but I would say it is likely closer to Garmin than Polar considering that calorie counting also depends on heart rate accuracy and the heart rate mon

But that is not really a current heart rate feature but a workaround of Polar Loop lacking such a feature. The start tab is meant to be used to track exercise. But then it is also silly to get a screenless device when you are interested in continious heart rate tracking. Which is probably why Polar

A funny way... LOL So, you are basically saying that Polar Loop is meant as a joke? I mean, you are even aware of what are you saying? You are basically saying that it makes sense to turn a very useful feature such as estimating the intensity and duration of exercise needed to reach what you set as

Thank you very much for your feedback. I was really close to reactivate my whoop with the black friday deal but no I think I will try the helio. At least I still have my whoop wrist and bicep straps. You are definitely right, 200 per year just for design aspects is crazy. I had really high hopes for
