The comfort level is especially handy if you’re planning on using the Ignite 2 as a sleep tracker, as it will sit unobtrusively on your wrist as you nod off. Put it on in the morning and you can pretty much forget it’s there for the whole day (until it vibrates to tell you you’ve been sat at your desk for too long). Happily I found the Ignite a very comfortable wear that isn't as chunky or cumbersome as plenty of other smart watches I’ve tried. One of the first hurdles fitness trackers can fall down on is comfort, as the placement of heart-rate trackers can dig into your wrist (especially if you have bony arms like some reviewers…). It also allows you to control some of the settings on your watch, including what types of workout and sport you'd like to track, and gives you feedback on everything from your activity to your sleep time.

I tested the Ignite 2 over a couple of weeks, using it for HIIT workouts, sports such as climbing and, most importantly, running.įirst impressions of the smartwatch were good: download the Polar Flow app on your phone, sync it with your new device and you’ll be away pretty quickly. Speaking as someone who’s already integrated into the Polar ecosystem (the proud owner of a Polar H10 heart-rate monitor and a Polar Vantage M smart watch) I was excited to see how a slightly cheaper device would hold up as a workout accessory. Our gripes are limited to what feels like a short battery life (under five days if you’re using it for heart-rate monitoring and workouts frequently) and the lack of an always-on display, which is annoying for reasons we’ll discuss later.īuy this if you want a do-it-all GPS fitness watch to track your activity across multiple sports and workouts.

It’s customisable enough that you should be able to find a watch, face and strap to suit your style, and its fitness features are a quick and easy way to knock out a home workout.Īs a running accessory it’s a useful piece of kit, with built-in GPS that means you can leave your phone at home, if you'd prefer.
