Polar Loop is a fitness tracker without a screen or subscription

Polar began to tease his portable polar loop Back in June. Like the Fitness Woop Tracker similar, the idea was simple: a fitness tracker that you can wear 24/7 but without the constant distractions of various buzz, beeps and notifications. After all, who needs another screen?

Now, the brand has officially announced the polar loop, which differs from Whoop in a critical way – it does not require a monthly subscription.

Unlike the Oura ring, whoop and other fitness trackers, the polar loop promises to provide monitoring of health, physical form and sleep without boring monthly costs.

Polar says that his new tracker can keep an eye on your heart rate, your sleep and your daily activity while remaining incognito on your wrist. You can rather check your statistics from the smartphone application. Of course, the list of available features is lower than you find in a fitness monitoring system based on a subscription, but some people like it.

This is a relatively new product category with a few competitors, but not much. Amazefit came out with His Helio strapAnd of course, there is the Whoop groups which quickly popularized the trend of fitness trackers without screen. Smart rings also worked In this space to follow your statistics in the background while you focus on other things. Garmin also plunged his toes into the mixture with the Garmin index Sleep MonitorWhich is part of sleep but not fitness stuff.

The loop is available in three colors, including night black, Greige sand (beige) and the brown cooper. It is available in pre -order on Polar website For $ 199.99. The company also offers replaceable bracelets for $ 29.99 that come in the aforementioned colors, as well as ocean blue as a fourth color option.
