This is Polar Vantage V3

Impossible goals don’t exist. You have the potential to achieve any goal you set. All you need to do is put it in the work. Set goals, work towards them, surpassing them. Set the next ones. This is what acting as an athlete means.

Athletic progress requires the development of physical and mental strength to become faster, strong, fitter—to achieve your goals. It’s about pushing your limits, but not to an extent that it’s abusive. Athletic progress is about listening to your body: adjusting your training in response to your body’s feedback for sustainable progress and fostering a strong mind-body connection to deepen your understanding of your physical capabilities.

Inspired by everyone who feels and acts as an athlete, Polar Vantage V3 takes sports performance to the next level with the raw power of a new-generation sensor fusion platform, Polar Elixir™, and a stunning design inspired by our Nordic heritage. It’s capable of measuring more biomarkers than ever before it and features a gorgeous AMOLED screen. And of course, it comes with all the training, recovery, and sleep functions Polar users have come to love—more precise and accurate than ever.

This is Polar Vantage V3 – Act as an Athlete.

The Source of Power: Polar Elixir™

Sports scientists, physiologists, and researchers have spent most of the last century on an epic quest to understand the mysteries of human performance. In doing so, they’ve come up with mechanisms to quantify a spectrum of bodily functions, such as cardiovascular activity, autonomic nervous system, and skin temperature. These measurements help us understand what happens in our body when we exercise, rest, sleep, and in everything we do. Today, some of those functions, or biomarkers, can be detected by tiny sensors that we can comfortably wear day and night.

Understanding the human body in sports and in life—this is the idea that drives Polar Vantage V3 and its new core engine: our newest generation of biosensing technologies. We call it Polar Elixir™, an innovative fusion of sensors that detects those imperceptible biological phenomena that continuously happen in our bodies, from heartbeats to small temperature variations and the oxygen traveling through our bloodstream.

Polar Elixir™ measures more information from the human body than ever before and translates it into digital data and insights. The innovative sensor fusion technology enables state-of-the-art, science-backed algorithms that yield the most advanced and precise understanding of the body, providing unique and individual guidance in sports and in life.

The result is a smart sports watch that gives elite and everyday athletes the tools to understand their bodies, how they respond to exercise and how they recover. We believe that once you understand how your body works with precision, you can fine-tune your training, ensuring every session counts and is productive.

Polar Vantage V3, powered by Polar Elixir™ biosensing technologies, measures four crucial indicators:

• Optical heart rate (4th generation). The redesigned sensor provides 25% more accurate optical heart rate readings in many of the most popular sports, like running and cycling.
• Blood oxygen levels (SpO2). Polar Vantage V3 uses pulse oximetry technology to measure the amount of oxygen circulating in your blood—a key indicator of overall health. The results show a level of accuracy similar to commercially available fingertip pulse oximeters and are in line with ISO standards according to a collaborative study with the Sport Product Testing group at the Canadian Sport Institute in Calgary, Canada.
• Skin temperature. At night, Polar Vantage V3 automatically detects your skin temperature, offering valuable insights into your overall wellbeing. Women can also use these skin temperature insights to gain a deeper understanding of the specific stage within their menstrual cycle.
• Wrist-ECG. By just placing a finger on a button, with Polar Vantage V3 you can take an electrocardiogram in 30 seconds and get readings of your heart’s electrical signals to unlock pro-level recovery features and insights into your body’s adaptation to exercise. You can also export the ECG test results to a PDF that you can share with your coach.

Such a level of insight brings the concept of having a laboratory on your wrist closer to reality. Even though, these measurements shouldn’t be used for medical purposes, they provide additional data points for planning your training and recovery, ensuring you always train at the right intensity—neither too intense nor too light.

When it comes to sports performance, measuring blood oxygen levels is particularly crucial if you are training at altitude. Additionally, ECG readings enable Orthostatic Test without the need of a separate heart rate chest strap. This is a phenomenal tool for monitoring the balance between training and recovery by assessing strain and other factors such as mental stress, sleep, environmental changes, and latent illness. 

Brighter, mightier, faster

With Polar Elixir™, what’s inside Polar Vantage V3 has radically changed. That’s not all. Polar Vantage V3 has also remarkable design changes.

Polar Vantage V3 retains our design principles, presenting a beautifully balanced combination of lightness, style, and functionality. But it also receives a major design change that integrates cutting-edge display technology and contemporary aesthetics.

By using a high-resolution AMOLED touchscreen, we brought the display closer to the edges, making more room for content. As it turns out, Polar Vantage V3 has a 35% more viewable area compared to its predecessor.

When you’re in the zone, you want to view your stats quickly, without distractions or the need to squint your eyes. That’s why our users have always demanded brighter and brighter screens. Responding to their request, Polar Vantage V3 is equipped with a new display that is incredibly sharp and bright—just like your smartphone. Whether you’re running in the summer sun or in dark environments, you’ll be able to see all your stats with clarity in an instant.

Strong, durable Gorilla Glass 3 lens protects the display, and a polished aluminum bezel adds an elegant touch that give the watch a premium look and feel. A set of rugged, glove-friendly buttons make it easy and practical to use during high-intensity workouts, swimming, and endurance sports, offering instant access to the most important functions.

Need a different look? For the first time in the Vantage V series, the new Polar Vantage V3 is fully compatible with standard 22mm wristbands, meaning no adapters needed.

Longer battery life

Even with a brighter display and faster processing power, Vantage V3 delivers battery life that lasts for days, eliminating the need to worry about charging each night. A bigger battery paired with more energy-efficient tech allow up to 53 hours of training time on a single charge (or up to 140 hours in power-saving mode), or up to 8 full days of display time.
