KEMPELE, FINLAND, 9 NOVEMBER 2022 – Polar Electro, the world leader in personal guidance for fitness, sport, and health, unveils Polar Ignite 3, a new fitness and wellness watch, which brings powerful training tools, best-in-class sleep tracking, customizable quick-access widgets, and a beautiful stylish design with a vivid high-resolution AMOLED touchscreen and a strong durable curved lens. Polar Ignite 3 takes Polar’s advanced sleep tracking features even further with the introduction of SleepWise™, an innovative new tool that visualizes the impact of sleep on the day ahead and every morning presents a forecast of daytime alertness levels with a detailed outlook of the optimal time for focused activities.
Made for active lifestyles, Polar Ignite 3 is packed with beloved fitness features, including the new in-training Voice Guidance and daily on-demand workout suggestions. Plus, Polar Ignite 3 is so versatile that users will want to wear it all day long to track their activity, heart rate, and calorie. At night, automatic sleep tools track the amount, quality, and the different sleep stages to build a full analysis of how the body recovered overnight from exercise, stress, and other life demands.
“Everyone’s circadian rhythm – our internal body clock – is different. Only when our lifestyle, including activity, fitness, and sleep-wake routines, is in harmony with our circadian rhythm can we then perform better,” says Sander Werring, CEO of Polar Electro. “Polar Ignite 3 is the result of our passion to providing unique guidance that helps people all over the world live a more well-rounded life,” he adds.
All-new design

Smart and beautiful, Polar Ignite 3 is designed for active lifestyles. The sleek aesthetics and soft edges create a seamless screen experience. A stainless-steel bezel surrounds the curved, durable Gorilla Glass lens that protects a bright, vivid AMOLED touchscreen display that is easy to read in all conditions, both indoors and outdoors.
Polar Ignite 3 introduces customizable quick-access widgets that give instant access to the information that matters the most, including weather, heart rate data, activity summary, and more. With these widgets, users can personalize the watch face to suit a range of different colors, styles, and even matching wristband.
At a weight of just 35 grams with a wristband, Polar Ignite 3 is extraordinarily light, making it comfortable to wear all day – and all night – long, while tracking heart rate, sleep, and activity for days. Unlike with many other devices on the market, users don’t have to worry about charging their watch every night. Even with the new bright display and the increasing list of capabilities, Polar Ignite 3 offers incredible battery life that lasts up to five days on a single charge, allowing users to track their activity and heart rate 24/7 and get more insights on their body’s performance.
The stunning design is matched by powerful technology inside. With up to a 2x faster CPU processor compared to the previous generation, Polar Ignite 3 brings a massive leap in performance that delivers a smoother, faster UI experience. The flat-back design of Polar Ignite 3 allows closer contact to the skin to Polar Precision Prime™ sensor fusion technology continues to provide best-in-class wrist-based heart rate measurement.
Despite its compact case size, Polar Ignite 3 comes equipped with powerful dual-frequency GPS, using the L1 and L5 bands for precise positioning. It measures distances and route data with maximum precision and less interference from tall buildings and bad weather.
Polar Ignite 3 also brings a colorful and fashionable new collection of 20mm wristbands, including the elegant Obsidian Crystal and Alcantara Stone variants, which put the finishing touch to any style and provide a snug, ultra-comfortable fit.
Find your own rhythm

The circadian rhythm is the internal clock that governs all systems in our body. From exercise to sleep, Polar Ignite 3 is equipped with a suite of features designed to help people balance their lifestyles with this rhythm.
Living in sync with our individual circadian rhythm starts with sleep. Polar Ignite 3 takes Polar’s advanced sleep tracking features even further with the introduction of SleepWise™. By combining sleep amount, quality and timing with the internal rhythm and individual sleep needs, the all-new SleepWise™ analyzes the user’s sleep-wake cycle and determines their cognitive alertness for the day ahead. Every morning, users will see a detailed outlook of their alertness levels and understand better when the optimal time is for focused activities, or just winding down. SleepWise™ will be available to all Polar Flow users with watches that support Sleep Plus Stages™ later this year.
The other key component to finding optimal rhythm is exercise. When it’s time to work out, Polar Ignite 3 has a robust suite of training and coaching tools Polar users have come to love. No matter where they are in their fitness journey, users can easily check their condition and level with simple – yet scientifically sophisticated – tools like Fitness, Walking, and Running Performance test. With over 150 pre-defined sports profiles,everybody can choose their favorite activity, and get the tools to track it. For those looking for movement coaching or guidance in an instant, Polar Ignite 3 comes equipped with FitSpark®️, an on-demand guide for daily workouts chosen to suit the body’s current condition and level of readiness.
Now, users can stay focused and limit distractions during their workouts with the new Voice Guidance feature. During workouts, Polar Ignite 3 offers real-time feedback and essential workout metrics through headphones or connected speakers, so users know exactly how they are performing at all times. Voice Guidance is available any time Polar Ignite 3 is connected to the Polar Flow mobile app.
After the day’s exercise, work and the demands of life, users can wind down with Serene and its guided breathing exercises to manage stress and calm the body and mind.
