Polar Vantage M3: The Concept
Sport looks good on you. This was our sentiment when we set out to reimagine our Vantage M series. Our goal was to create a beautiful, stylish watch that would pack the latest Polar technology. We think we have succeeded—just take a look at it 👇
Sport isn’t just about your workouts—it’s a lifestyle. That’s why we’ve crafted Polar Vantage M3 to be your constant companion, seamlessly blending performance with style. Our design team has created a versatile timepiece that complements your active life and suits any occasion, from the gym to a night out. It’s the perfect watch for 24/7 wear.
Sport, like many aspects of lifestyle, is indeed a deeply personal choice—activities you’re into can say a lot about who you are. It’s like picking your favorite music or clothes – it’s all you, and it tells a story about what makes you tick. That was we made Polar Vantage M3 for (almost) any sport. Running? Hiking? Cycling? Pumping iron? Or maybe something a bit more adventurous, like skateboarding? Polar Vantage M3 has the tools to track over 150 different activities.
Technologies that will help you reach new heights
But it wasn’t just about creating a beautiful watch. We also wanted to create the best sports watch in its category. The new Polar Vantage M3 offers all the essential training, recovery, and sleep tracking features that our users love—just like the previous generations of the Vantage M series—while introducing remarkable upgrades that stand out at first glance. It all starts with the incredibly vivid display.
1.28-inch AMOLED display
The most obvious upgrade is the stunning AMOLED touchscreen display. We replaced the previous MIP display with a vibrant, modern screen that’s easily visible in any condition, even under bright sunlight—just like your smartphone.
The display immediately pops with vivid colors and sharp clarity, grabbing your attention the moment you look at it. Plus, with the always-on mode, you can easily keep track of your stats mid-workout at a glance. No distractions while you’re on the zone.
Despite the power-hungry the display, the new Polar Vantage M3 retains long battery life, with up to 7 days of battery on a single charge.
New Generation Biosensing Technologies
Last year, we launched our next-generation sensor fusion platform, Polar Elixir™, which unlocks powerful new capabilities for measuring key body signals and delivers deeper insights into your sports performance, recovery, and overall wellbeing. The platform comprises four main capabilities:
- Fourth generation OHR: One of the most precise optical heart rate sensor configurations in the world.
- Blood oxygen levels (SpO2). Built-in pulse oximetry technology to measure the amount of oxygen circulating in your blood—a key indicator of overall health.
- Skin temperature. Measures your skin temperature at night, offering valuable insights into your overall wellbeing.
- Wrist-ECG. By just placing a finger on a button, you can take an electrocardiogram in 30 seconds and get readings of your heart’s electrical signals.
When you wear Polar Vantage M3 all day and all night, Polar Elixir™ can capture enough data to deliver accurate insights into your daily recovery and overall body condition. For instance, in the morning, you can see fluctuations in your skin temperature overnight—a higher-than-usual temperature could signal the onset of an illness, such as the flu. With Wrist-ECG, you can take an Orthostatic Test—a highly useful tool for balancing training and recovery. It helps you understand whether your body is ready for intense training or if you need to take it easy.
Combined with incredibly accurate sleep tracking capabilities, including SleepWise™, Sleep Plus Stages™ , and Nightly Recharge™, Polar Vantage M3 excels at tracking recovery from exercise and other stress factors, providing precise insights to help optimize rest and performance.
Maps and navigation
The brilliant AMOLED display of Polar Vantage M3 is just perfect for maps and navigation features. Whether you’re going around the city or exploring a new hiking route, simply glance at your watch to instantly see where you are and where you are going, without the need to stop and reach for your smartphone.
With highly accurate dual-frequency GPS, Maps on the Polar Vantage M3 makes navigation effortless, displaying your exact location on full-color topographic maps that feature buildings, streets, waterways, paths, and more. Moreover, Strava Premium users can seamlessly connect their Strava and Flow accounts for automatic route syncing. And, of course with komoot and Polar Vantage M3, you can enjoy turn-by-turn guidance.
