Question Polar Ignite vs Fitbit Versa 2

Hello, i need to buy an heartrate monitor.
I will use mainly for running and home workouts, i'd like to track my sleep and I dont care so much for the GPS.
I have selected 2, the Versa 2 and the Polar Ignite and I am looking for reviews.
Thank you in advance

I don't have a good answer for you. I have similar needs and have been looking at the Garmin Forerunner 45. The Polar Ignite sounds like a good competitor that I missed. More research for me.....

I think chest strap monitors are best, I'm looking at the Polar H9 or H10 for my next purchase...batteries replaceable by user wow, Polar has come a long way!

And I can either use it with an app on my phone or with a Polar watch, I like that idea.

Hi Tangerine !

I agree that chest straps are way more accurate but I sometimes hate to have the chest strap !

Anyway I thought my old FT/ strap was dead, that's why I needed a new one, but I realized that I can change the battery ! It's the H1, old but reliable, so for now I am very happy I don't have to invest in a new one !

Thanks so much for your input
