In general, the watch is not bad. The sports functions are well implemented. Convenient, customizable, informative display, displays a bunch of parameters, high-quality assembly. I've been using the watch for 2 weeks, it has already collected all the data about me, training, sleep, etc. They began to correctly display my condition, the effectiveness of training and other parameters, the next time I connected to the computer, the watch synchronized and offered an update, after installing the update the watch died. On the Polar website, I called and wrote to the technical support contacts provided, but there was no meaningful help, except perhaps an offer to bring or send a watch at my own expense. That is, the company spends money on free distribution of watches to Russian athletes, in particular skiers, but cannot provide the after-sales service enshrined in the law, that is, take all the costs on itself and create services in at least several cities, and not just in St. Petersburg and Moscow . Nowadays, we are overgrown with gadgets, and such a jamb of some kind of technology causes a lot of negativity, and service is no less important. But Polar doesn't care about him The watch is beautiful, comfortable, functional, accurate GPS, long operating time, with daily hour-long training and notifications from the phone turned on, it works strictly for 5 days. Convenient ecosystem. Broke down!!! Two weeks after purchase. Disgusting service. Just a single service center for the whole of Russia, located in Moscow. When you call there, a guy picks up the phone and just says "Hello" without even introducing himself. That's the level we're dealing with. In training mode, you cannot manually start any timer or stopwatch, although it would be convenient to measure rest between sets during strength and other workouts. Low power GPS sensors lose satellites under a bus stop shelter. The phone notification function works poorly, everything that appears in the phone's notification window shows up on the watch, even the remaining seconds when updating apps on the phone.

Winning the IF Design award 2019, the Finnish watch brand Polar is made of reinforced matte plastic with a metal band around the round dial. The battery capacity of 230 mAh is enough for 30 hours in training mode (with active GPS and heart rate monitor) or up to 5 days of using basic functions: collecting notifications, counting steps taken, etc. Charging is done via microUSB.
New heart rate sensor
The list of Polar Vantage M sensors is quite traditional: compass, altimeter, GPS + GLONASS, accelerometer and heart rate monitor. Here are just the last one — Precision Prime — this is a new proprietary development. It provides more contact sensors (4 instead of the traditional 2), which reduces the errors in heart rate measurements and brings them closer to the accuracy of chest straps.
For various sports
With the help of the watch, it is easy to control the pulse, physical activity, analyze sleep, create training programs for 130 sports, not limited to running, walking or cycling. The Polar Vantage M is water resistant to WR30, and the manufacturer claims they can be used by swimmers. In the appropriate mode, the watch determines the style of swimming, the number and frequency of strokes, the pace of the swim, etc.
A useful additional feature is Training Load Pro. It allows you to analyze the level of physical activity. The score is formed on the basis of the data obtained during training and information from the user himself. As a result, the watch determines the overall status in the range from under-exertion to overtraining.
You can track all your results on your watch, branded and third-party mobile apps, including Strava, Nike+, TrainingPeaks, Polar Flow web app on PC.
Informative display
Polar Vantage M is equipped with a 1.2-inch colour display with a solid margin of brightness and protective glass Gorilla Glass 3. The screen resolution is moderate 240x240 pixels, which provides a good balance between readability and the amount of information displayed on the dial. 5 physical buttons are offered for control, since the display is not touch-sensitive. If such a shortcoming is critical, then take a closer look at the more expensive flagship model Polar Vantage V.
A new patented heart rate monitor and a wealth of fitness features make the Vantage M the perfect choice for dedicated sports enthusiasts.
