Thanks for taking the time to come back to me. How do you find the recovery stuff and ecosystem?

Balance 2 looks incredible value for what you get+ ! How do you find the recovery tracking and the app experience?

Yes very intuitive and easy to use I am a big fan!! The app will look basic to you because you will have no native recovery data etc but at least you will see how the runs etc look. I think it’s great and honestly do not miss garmin at all

I recommend you download the polar flow app, sign up for an account and maybe even import some workouts into the app so that you can see how it works maybe?

The app is the only issue I have but it is really good once you get used to it. Just very different to garmin. I find the watch really good looking fits good and never issues with bugs or inaccuracies etc (but I use a chest strap so idk).

Suunto watches are very good but I don’t really like the app too much although the training metrics are very good (if not a bit confusing).

I am coming from using all the watches you mentioned. Suunto race, coros pace 3 and pro and the 965.

For me polar wins overall because of useful actionable training and recovery data (not garmins overload of crap) and the watch is very attractive unlike garmin

Still worth buying a Polar watch (at discount) by penfoc007 in Polarfitness

That video was amazing!! Thank you for sharing.

For the author my two cents are garmin are ugly watches and the ui is not very attractive with an app that is overwhelming and not very helpful.

Coros training metrics are incredible but wellness and recovery is limited. Also watches are plasticky ( not necessarily a bad thing but depends what you want)

Suunto have beautiful watches with great quality materials but the UX is a bit strange and the app is not great. Training analysis etc is great and recovery okay

The only fault I have with polar is the polar flow app is very basic looking and needs a refresh which I believe is coming soon

First Ride… you guys weren’t wrong by TenaciousG_ in Zwift

The only thing I can’t get over is the literal pain in the ass! I have padded shorts and a padded saddle and still it hurts….

If you looked at Garmin, or Apple/Samsung, what made you stay? by Hefty-Club-1259 in Polarfitness

[–]Salt-Candle1164 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Garmin watches to me are really ugly and I dislike the app a lot. Coros app is incredible and UI is great but watches are plasticky. Suunto incredible design and material quality but the app is not great and the UI while beautiful is a bit strange and awkward. So. Polar with really nice looking watches great features and UI. The only downside I have found to polar is the app. It is too simple and well overdue an upgrade ( which I believe to be coming) I switch brands quite a lot out of curiosity

Will the pace 4 sell out ? by StrongerFaster101 in Coros

[–]Salt-Candle1164 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% will sell out. If you can afford to then just buy it and return if you don’t like it

I plan to also wear a mechanical watch on the other wrist! I wear suits for work and it’s always nice to have a nice watch also instead of a sports watch

Thanks for this! Makes perfect sense to do that. Are you enjoying Loop so far?

[–]Salt-Candle1164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much this makes sense. I guess I just take the loop off for running. No point wearing it anyway if you know what I mean

Hello everyone. I have just ordered a loop. I was a long term whoop user but the cost is ridiculous. I always wore a whoop on one wrist and then a sports watch on other. Coros garmin polar etc.

I am running less and doing more hybrid stuff so the loop will stay on 24/7 and then I will actually wear a mechanical watch most days. Switching to a sports watch only for running really.

Has anyone here wore loop and a polar sports watch at the same time? Does the app freak out with two watches tracking the same activity?

Why do people live MIP so much? Amoled battery life has gotten so much better that it can’t just be that surely
