  • High quality fit and finish, Most advanced sleep metrics available today, Solid battery life, Accurate heart rate sensor, Comfortable strap, Full featured Polar Flow service
  • Frustrating touchscreen and single button navigation
  • I went into this review with no current training plan since I wanted to be able to follow the advice of teh FitSpark training guide in order to experience what Polar Ignite buyers will when they purchase this watch. It's a much smaller watch than I normal...

  • Accurate, insightful sleep-tracking, Accurate GPS-tracking, Customized training advice
  • Unresponsive touch screen, Dated design, Few smartwatch features
  • Polar's $230 Ignite is a powerful GPS watch. You'll become addicted to viewing your sleep stages, Polar's Nightly Recharge analysis and how the two are related to your workouts. I appreciated Polar's exercise recommendations, because they felt personal to...

  • Overall Polar's done some impressive things on the Ignite, mainly from a software functionality standpoint. The Nightly Recharge and FitSpark functionality are truly new within not just Polar's lineup, but across the sports tech and fitness industry. It's...

  • Overall, I'm pretty impressed with the Ignite in most ways. While I've been skeptical of Polar's ability to innovate lately, they seem to nail it in this watch in terms of the new physio-focused features around sleep and training guidance. And perhaps mos...

  • La Polar Ignite nous a séduits par son design impeccable qui lui permet de remplacer une montre horlogère sans rougir et de vous accompagner agréablement au quotidien dans vos efforts physiques. Elle pâtit tout de même d'un gros défaut avec son écran qui...

  • integriertes GPS, an Erholung angepasste Trainingspläne, sehr genaues Schlaftracking, Benachrichtigungsanzeige (mit Emojis)
  • Touch-Display nicht immer zuverlässig, Software fehlerbehaftet
  • Die Polar Ignite soll die Balance zwischen Aktivität und Erholung in eurem Leben wahren und greift dazu auf eine Handvoll Funktionen zurück. Ob die Ignite getreu der deutschen Übersetzung auch bei uns eine Fitness-Leidenschaft "entfachen" kann, verraten w...
