There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Now let me list what is lacking in Ignite.
1. Watch display brightness is fixed and cannot be increased for bright sunny days. It is impossible to read the display even in early morning in sunny California.
2. There is no way to program the watch to show the only sports and icons that you use. In my case, it is only running outside and rarely treadmill. I don't need other icons showing up on my watch. This is simple software issue. Polar is way behind Fitbit in this regard.
3. When I am wearing H10 chest strap, there is no indication that shows it is reading H10 and not the optical sensors. This is very frustrating since I don't know if electrical contacts of the straps have made contact with my body. (Is there enough wetness or do need to use a conducting gel?) If the watch has made a connection to H10 why can't it show it prominently?
4. Even though Ignite has Blue Tooth, it cannot synch with my desktop computer wirelessly. It always needs a wired USB connection. Even on a smart phone the synch is not automatic. I must press the button on the watch to synch. This shows lack of modern wireless technology! Polar is far behind other smart watches.
5. Watch face cannot be customized. It doesn't have a third party apps that can give you interesting watch faces. My Fitbit Ionic gives me 1000's of watch faces to choose from.
6. GPS mapping a comparable to all GPS devices nothing special.
Overall, Ignite has poor wireless technology, poor display, poor programmability.

Der Touchscreen ist manchmal etwas schwerfällig und ich musste auch erst rausfinden, wie genau ich die Uhr tragen muss, damit die Pulsmessung beim Joggen auch funktioniert. Alles aber eine Frage der Übung.
Und wie gesagt: Die Uhr hat so viele Funktionen für so einen geringen Preis, dass diese kleinen "Mäkel" gar nicht ins Gewicht fallen. Wer da etwas mehr Qualität haben möchte muss dann auch bereit sein in die nächste Preisklasse zu gehen.

Leí algunas reseñas quejándose de falta de algunas funciones, la realidad es que si las tiene, si es necesario leer y revisar el manual.
わりと直感的に使いやすいですが、スマホとの同期が上手くいかないことが多いかも。
No inicio foi dificil entender o mecanismo do relogio, ficava ruim p dormir pq eu tinha q apertar muito a pulseira p ele conseguir medir meus pulsos, o msm acontece durante o exercicio ( eh so colocar do jeito e no lugar certo que tudo fica bem). Gostei mto, nao eh tao especifico p corrida e esse era meu obejtivo com o relogio
Ho acquistato il Polar Ignite e posso dire che è un orologio entry-level per gli appassionati di sport in generale che desiderano monitorare le proprie attività quotidiane, il consumo calorico e tutto il resto, essendo uno degli più economici orologi Polar con GPS.
L'apparecchio registra le variazioni della frequenza cardiaca in modo molto accurato, in qual è il suo punto di forza, presentando sul display valori crescenti di frequenza cardiaca nei colori grigio, blu, verde, arancione e rosso mentre si avvicina alla frequenza cardiaca massima dell'utente, una rappresentazione grafica interattiva e di facile comprensione.
I dati visualizzati sul display durante l'allenamento non sono configurabili. Per l'opzione di corsa su strada i valori di frequenza cardiaca, andatura, distanza e durata dall'inizio della sessione, sono i dati presentati, ma sono sufficienti per monitorare correttamente il tuo allenamento.
Tuttavia, l'orologio non determina la posizione con la precisione riportata, ciò può essere confermato visualizzando le differenze tra il percorso preso e il percorso disegnato sulla mappa utilizzando l'app Polar Flow, sebbene rileva i cambiamenti di direzione durante la corsa. Non ho osservato alcun cambiamento significativo tra giorni nuvolosi e giorni limpidi o tra le combinazioni GPS + Glonass e GPS + Galileo, le differenze rimangono.
Come già riportato qui, sotto gli alberi in alcune situazioni il segnale si indebolisce, registrando ampie variazioni senza che il ritmo medio della corsa sia cambiato.
Non ho avuto problemi ad accendere l'orologio girando il polso e anche se il quadrante a volte può essere difficile da leggere a causa della luce del sole, era solo questione di aspettare una zona più ombreggiata vicina per venisse letto correttamente.
Toccare il quadrante touch screen per eseguire qualsiasi operazione, a volte diventa un compito arduo e ingrato, ma alla fine, vengono effettuate.
Nel mio caso (4 corse da 1,5 ore a settimana) la batteria ha una durata adeguata e non ha perso efficacia in questo anno e mezzo di utilizzo.
Il cinturino è in gomma morbida, di ottima qualità ed è in ottime condizioni dopo tutto questo tempo di utilizzo.
Per quanto riguarda la mia esperienza, capisco che le mie esigenze sono state soddisfatte solo in parte e spero che Polar abbia corretto le debolezze evidenziate in questa recensione nei nuovi modelli.
