🏃 Polar Vantage M - Enhanced Running & Performance Monitoring Review

I may have a defective device, but the display was very dark. There is no option to change this in the settings either. I suspect this is the main reason for the better battery life, but after using various Polar and Fitbit products I found this unacceptable. Very disappointed as I've been waiting for the Vantage for a while. I love polar food but I'll stick with this one until it gets better. Worn one day and returned.

I'm not a fan of touchscreen watches. I train to practice, not to play with dials. I understand fitness enthusiasts who want a…

First off, let me say that I've used Fitbit, Garmin, and Apple devices in the past. Most recently, I switched from the Apple Watch Series 5 to the Polar Vantage M. Overall I think this is a great sports watch. Apple is taking over smartwatches. But I needed a watch with a multi-day battery that would hold up better outdoors, especially when hiking, skiing, and hiking. Polar did a great job. A single charge lasts for 5-6 days of use, including sleep tracking, continuous heart rate monitoring and
