Finally accurate wrist based Heart Rate and GPS for my varying activities throughout the week (mainly run/soccer/cycle). GPS connects very quickly and has measured up to the "actual" distances so far.
The sleep metrics are very easy to understand (although the logic behind it seems very scientific and is beyond me). It is interesting to see these metrics on such a granular level, and perhaps I can actually start tweaking my sleep schedule accordingly.
The new features that recommend the workout of the day are pretty cool too and seem to be a new feature for a Polar watch. I haven't had a chance to follow these yet, but am really interested in seeing some recovery recommendations since that has been a pain point for me as of late.

The strengths of the Ignite include the HR tracking, larger variety of workout types (e.g., indoor cycle), extensive array of sleep tracking data and analyses, and general appearance. The Ignite needs to be charged about every 2nd day depending on usage but it recharges quickly.
It's not perfect - I wish the alarm function was more flexible in allowing different day settings and the syncing does have to be initiated manually which takes a couple of mins. And the sleep tracking can be fooled if one stays awake for more than a few mins overnight. However the wealth of data on the watch, on the app, and online in Polar Flow is astounding. I've added a couple of screenshots of the online app to show a small portion of what's available. Due to Covid-19 we have not traveled so I don't know how the system handles time zone changes. Trips used to absolutely blowup the cheapo tracker and software that I used prior to the Ignite. I'm guessing it would be fine.
I spent many months reading reviews of various devices and I am very pleased about choosing the Ignite.

This watch is loaded with features! I have only had this watch for a couple of months and have only used a fraction of the features. I downloaded the pdf version of the instruction manual. The English version is 91 pages! The instructions are clearly written and nice to have if I’m not sure of something.
The only other feature I wish it had is the ability to read blood oxygen saturation. I would highly recommend this amazing watch.
As for cons, the touch display is a bit laggy but not aggravatingly so. Also, water on the display in the shower will emulate touch events. One change I'd like to see is a night time dimmer mode, or alternatively a small time display on a black background during the "sleep hours" because in the middle of the night it seems very bright.
I really like this watch - as an already active person it tracks my activity, sleep and etc. in surprising and insightful ways. It pairs with the Polar website to allow you to plot all your data and see your trends. If you are already active and are looking for a good fitness tracker, this is a good candidate.
Top reviews from other countries
I've spent this week getting used to the Ignite, it's a touch screen like the Vantage V, but with fewer buttons, one to be precise. The watch was easy to set up and synced with my Flow account seamlessly. There were a few updates to do, but that didn't take very long.
The touch screen performs really well and I love the screen colours and brightness with the watch coming to life when I turn my wrist to look at the screen or touch the watch face or button.
The Ignite Optical heart rate sensors look the same as on my Vantage V and it picks up my heart rate just as quickly. The sleep stages are a lot more detailed on the Ignite compared to what I'm used to on the Vantage V though, but having read some on-line reviews, it looks like these sleep stages will also be added to my Vantage V in a future software update. After a few days I started to get more scores associated with how well I'd been sleeping and how recharged my body was, I love this feedback - well done Polar!! Of course I also know my body well and if I'm feeling refreshed from sleep or not, but it has been really good to see the Ignite offering the details relating to how much time I've spent in each of the sleep stages and how 're-charged' I am the next morning. I'm looking forward to using the Fitspark functions at the weekend with a cardio workout and then seeing my sleep and re-charge scores the following day. Fitspark isn't available on my other Polar devices so I'm intrigued to see how this will work, it definitely looks like some of the available exercises in the planned routines are going to give me a real challenging workout, which I will love.
There's also something called serene breathing, I've followed the onscreen instructions in bed at night before settling down to sleep and I have to say I do feel more relaxed and ready for sleep after doing the breathing exercises.
Lastly I've reviewed some of the regular routes I've ran in my Polar flow account, the GPS on the Ignite so far has been good, with great connectivity even under the dense canopy of trees on one of my favourite routes.
All in all, this is a fabulous device, with many new features that I'm really enjoying using and the price is great too.
