For the most part, the Polar Loop is designed well (with one glaring flaw, which we’ll get to). It’s subtle, tough and even waterproof so you can happily go for a swim with it one. It logs steps and estimates calories, and provides a much more detailed breakdown via an iPhone app, showing you have much of your day is spent being active. Perhaps most importantly, it also tells the time on command,
Instead of opting to sell two sizes of wristband as Nike does, Polar’s made an odd decision - provide a large one and let you cut it down to size. This does work but it’s also something you’ve only got one shot at adjusting - once you’ve trimmed it, there’s no way to fix it except get a replacement band, which will take time and add frustration to the experience.Battery life on the Polar Loop is

The Polar Loop is an attractive fitness band with a bright LED display, and at $109, it's less expensive than many competing devices. However, the lack of comprehensive sleep tracking, food logging and calibration make the device less effective than ...
