Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers commend the Polar Pacer for its ultra‑light construction, long training battery, and clear MIP display, positioning it as a pure‑running device that delivers accurate GPS and heart‑rate data. However, they also note its stripped‑down smartwatch feature set and missing advanced health sensors, making it less suitable for users who expect a full‑featured multisport watch.
What Users Say
Everyday users love the barely‑noticeable weight and dependable GPS that lasts through marathon‑length events, while appreciating the straightforward app syncing. Recurring frustrations center on the cramped screen, occasional HR glitches, and the absence of music or richer smartwatch capabilities.
Common Complaints
Heart‑rate sensor inaccuracy during intervals, small screen size limiting data visibility, lack of music storage and advanced notifications, and a plastic case that feels less premium.
What People Are Saying
“ultra-light with advanced running tools”
“feels invisible at 40 g”
“35 h training battery”
How It Compares
vs. Garmin Forerunner 255
Advantages
Disadvantages
Choose the Forerunner 255 if you need multisport features and on‑watch music; stick with the Pacer for ultra‑light comfort and longer endurance battery.
vs. Coros Pace 3
Advantages
Disadvantages
Select the Coros Pace 3 for the best price‑to‑battery ratio; opt for the Polar Pacer when display readability and ultra‑light weight are top priorities.
