Review on Polar Vantage M Smart Watch, Black by Firash Hakimi

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

for my money (I took it for 18k) - a watch that has no competitors on the market from the word at all. Harmins do not measure the pulse in the water, and most of the basic sports profiles are opened only when buying watches from 40k. suunto? How many reviews I haven’t watched - I don’t understand how this brand still exists. Apple Watch - 2 times more expensive, they hold a charge for 1 day, infographics in them tend to zero. Amazfit? XDDD If you are engaged in light fitness, and the top statistics you need are steps and kilocalories - you don’t need this watch, buy xiaomi mi band 4-5 and be happy. If you are an amateur athlete - vantage M is your choice.

Pros
  • 1. Design: I have a white version, it looks awesome, which cannot be said about the black version (when I first saw them, even before I got acquainted with multisport watches, I thought that these were Chinese amazfits with alik). 2. Ease of use: in my opinion, multisport watches should not have a touch screen, or if there is, like in vantage V, then there should still be buttons with which you can perform all the necessary manipulations. 3. Accuracy of heart rate measurement - a small inertia, of course, is present, as with any optical sensors, but in general, the indicators are accurate. (athletes know that it is not worth focusing on the indicators of the optical sensor at a high heart rate). 4. Sleep monitoring - interesting, fairly accurate statistics. 5. Training load pro, a great tool that will help not to be lazy for jumping people and not to get injured and overtrained by excessive enthusiasts) 6. Sync with Strava and Nike+. 7. Detailed and voluminous statistics on the polar flow website. 8. GPS on a four, but overall good. 9. 200 sports modes. 10. Good autonomy, with daily hourly workouts and constant heart rate measurement - the charge is enough for 5 days. 11. Gun display.
Cons
  • 1. A terrible pedometer, on the Polar website it is written that they say that the watch converts any of your activity into steps, which of course is ridiculous, and looks like a way to pass off a bug as a feature. A banal example: I’m lying on the couch watching a movie for 2 hours, periodically reaching for a cup of tea - at the end of the movie, the clock shows that I found 400-600 steps 2. following the pedometer - counting daily calorie consumption: this is also some kind of comedy, I won’t say that I lead an active lifestyle, mostly sedentary with an admixture of activity, in the form of a norm of 10k steps a day and 1 hour of running / cycling, and so the clock says at the end of the day that I spent 4-5k calories per day ! it's something. 3. There are only 2 dials and one of them is absolutely uninformative, so consider that 1. 4. I personally do not need notifications on the watch, but you need to understand that this is not an Applewatch and other masters of distractions in the workplace. The watch is synchronized with the phone periodically, and only at the time of synchronization informs you about notifications. 5. Someone may be critical of the lack of NFC or music control on the clock. 6. Synchronization with Strava and Nike only through the site, but link your account once and then all workouts will be synchronized automatically. 7. They connect with an iPhone with a bang, there are failures with an android.
