POLAR Unite Waterproof Fitness Watch (Includes Wrist-Based Heart Rate and Sleep Tracking)

I recently bought the FitBit Charge 4 for my wife and I as soon as it was released a few months ago. It was so sporadic with the GPS and was more of a entertainment device than actually helping me improve my health and wellness. She enjoyed the simplicity of it but even the steps were so off that it wasn't worth keeping.I was researching the Unite and Ignite but ultimately decided on the Unite since it was cheaper and when I do run outside I always have my phone on me for connected GPS.. The fitness metrics and heart rate are extremely accurate and the recommendations on my daily workouts with the FitSpark feature are worth their weight in gold.This is probably the lightest watch I have ever worn and I haven't taken it off since I got it. It is pretty stylish with a full color touch screen which has already been mistaken for an Apple Watch by a few people. The charging port is pretty unique as it clips right back into the watch and then you plug it in via USB. I also purchased a separate wrist band for this (as they are interchangeable) for when I am going out rather than having a sweaty band on me.I am pretty happy with this so far - my treadmill workouts have been pretty accurate and the HR is spot on.

The media could not be loaded. I shopped around quite a bit for a replacement for my Amazon Halo which was my first fitness tracker. A lot of trackers have extra features that have nothing to do with fitness so I don’t need them. I was looking for accurate data and this seems to do really well. The battery only lasts about 3 days but that’s not a big deal for me. It only takes about 30 minutes to charge so I can just do it while I shower. I only wish I had spent more and gotten the Ignite with the built-in GPS. I didn’t think I would want that feature until last night during my team’s dragonboat practice. I needed to have my phone on me to connect to its GPS and I don’t like having my phone on the boat for fear of it getting wet. It tracked every moment, and I could go back and see the time, speed, heart rate and distance of every part of the practice on the map. Way freaking cool!! Oh whatever complaints people had about screen delays, they must have worked that out because I haven’t had that problem.

The only thing about this piece of crap that is marginally decent is the heart rate monitoring and even that has issues.The pairing to a phone, the syncing to the Polar App, the app itself, the way the band connects, the useless extras like Sleep Tracking and the useless but intrusive “blog” are all rubbish.I bought this in March 2022 and have been persevering with it for the past 10 months. I am fed up, sick and tired of dealing with it.The GPS feature is worse than useless. About 60% of the time, it fails to connect at all. The vast majority of the remaining times, it will lose connection during the ride resulting in erroneous distance and route information. I always ride with Strava and it, plus my analog cycle computer, always match. If the feature does not work. Fix it or eliminate it!The pairing the watch to a phone is an exercise in frustration.Syncing the phone to the polar app is usually an ok exercise but not always. Again frustrating.Fitbit has a way better mechanism for attaching the band. This is a poor mechanism.There is too many useless features like the Sleep Tracking stuff. I know if I had a good sleep. Further, it is not accurate. I will wake up rested and feel I had a great sleep and this POC will advise that my sleep was poor.Finally, I wanted a watch that would show my heart rate when I was in the middle of exercising. This POC claims to do so but does not. The screen goes black after a few seconds. When I am in the middle of climbing or sprinting, I can’t be flicking my wrist to see if this POC will bother to show my current heart rate. My old Polar FT7 constantly showed the current heart rate. The reason I bought this POC was I had had such good results with the FT7 and the even older one I had before that. Never again. I will buy an Apple, Fitbit, Garmin or anything else before I will buy another Polar POC.

I finally did figure out how to get "Always On" to work somewhat - It has to be During Training and Recording. Seems a waste. Not obvious. Still unsure it's actually displaying the H10 not built in HRM.So far the Ignite does not function completely as advertised. I'm trying to get it to display my heart rate using a H10 HRM visible all the time which it is supposed to. But the menu item for that doesn't show. I have been trying to contact Support for several days but it's non-existent. Also, menu navigation is difficult on the watch since it doesn't pick up swipes very well. Also, t's not clear if it is actually communicating with the H10 since the displayed rate is off during exercise at times. This may be an on going review if I ever get a response from Polar. It's too bad this is such a poor product since I'm really impressed with the H10 I have.

The best combination of being slim and loaded with features. For the price and advertised features, I could not pick anythin to complain about, only pluses.All features I need from long ago dated Polar model, I found by exploring the controls and menu, which turned out to be very intuitive. At least, when you know what are you looking for.During menu exploration, many new features were discovered, including the day-long HR monitoring. Turning it Off made the watch holding charge longer than 4 days as of specs.Walking distance measured in steps differs by less than 1% comparing to GPS tracking. Jogging speed and distance are over-estimated. Could be that Plolar calibrated for running only or it was me using "Running" mode instead of "Jogging"Do not miss internal GPS sensor at all, and even thank designers for not fitting it, hence making the watch compact. If you don't leave the hous without cell phone or cycling computer, you'll most likely will not miss built-in GPS too.Also, like color coding for HR zones during the activity recording. Black-and-white low battery alarm shows that designing engineers care about battery saving and it runs low.
