The Polar Ignite 2 is a strikingly attractive watch that's all about staying on top of your health. It offers all-day heart rate tracking, stress monitoring and impressively detailed sleep tracking, but really comes into its own during workouts thanks to its extremely accurate heart rate monitoring and GPS tracking, plus training tools that adapt based on your biometric data and past efforts so you can train smarter and measure the effects. You won't find music storage or contactless payments here, but that's not what this watch is about. The only thing missing is a pulse ox sensor and an always-on display for checking stats more easily mid-run – otherwise it's superb.

For newcomers, this is a comprehensive – if exhausting – introduction into the world of fitness tracking. Dedicated gym rats will either appreciate the granularity the Ignite 2 offers or go for something a bit more ruggedised and specific to their needs.
