All the best for you, thank you for this review and taking time to do it in the midst of personal challenges. Really looking forward for your review of Garmin Fenix 8, Oura Ring 4 and Huawei Watch D2 later when you have the time and hopefully feel better again 🙏
WOW, that's what I call dedication and the true spirit of a scientist. Even wanting to create something good out of a muddled situation and putting the data into context

Looks like a lot of HR mismatch can be explained by a slight lag and sometimes by temporal smoothing. You could first correct for the lag by a fixed time shift and then do the correlation.
The Huel T-shirt at 16:57 does more damage than support your channel and reputation. Fake food and scientific measurement for a better, healthier lifestyle do not go together. Please think about it, again. I will, as others will do for sure. Keep up the good work meanwhile.
I have a suggstion, can you put foward a table that shows the rankings of each smartwatch for each of the tasks (running, sleep tracking etc.), it becomes easier to see which watch is the best which are not.
What a great job on those reviews!! Thank you very much, Rob. I'm not sure how hard would be to get the raw data from medical grade Spo2 devices, but, I always asked myself about how accurate this watches are at this.
Love your videos Rob, such a shame Polar does not nails it in your test. It's one of the last true European manufactures, what kind of matters to me for data storage. Based on your review of the Google Pixel Watch 3, maybe that suits me as an alternative to track my sleep and health metrics, but I would love to give Polar a try. Take care💔 and hopefully you find happiness soon.
Can you make a video on different mobile apps for sleep tracking? Both stand-alone and ones that use the information from your smartwatch. Thank you! Love the Channel
Deviations from previous Polar devices could be explained by "single test subject" :) Which is also true for all the other devices you tested. Un/fortunately, humans and their body parts including wrists come in different shapes and sizes and what's a good fit for one, isn't necessarily good for other. Also good that you're pointing that sleep stage tracking (which in reality no one cares for) and sleep tracking are two different things. Wouldn't mind to see you give scores for both measures.
Can it be that it’s not the weight of the M3 that gives it better results than the V3, but that it has newer firmware? I would be very interested to know whether the V3 with updated software is similar to M3 for its HR data
I seem to have understood that Polar M3, V3 and Grit 2 Pro are three sportwatches that have the same software functions and differ only in the case, dimensions and battery
Mi band 9 please, waiting to buy one but waiting for the review! Kind of a disappointment this M3 vs the price...correlations at .9 are quite low for what was expected and even weight lifting at .28...bad.
Please do Scanwatch 2 from Withings! We'd like to know if they improved :) they changed the sensors I could see. Please focus on the HR accuracy for night time and rest time as this is not a sport watch. I'd like to use it to follow a patient with a heart failure.
Thank you for these reviews, I've just bought the pixel 2 because of them. I'd be interested in accuracy of the hrv measures of different smart watches - just as an idea for another video 😊 Interesting paper in this regard: doi 10.2196/33754 Kind regards!
Without MIP display no buy for me. I want my watch display to stay always on without fancy gesturers to enable it the time i run. Yes, amoled is look impressive, but a watch intended for sports use is meant to show you some stats, not movies.
Maybe because Huawei hasn't sent him the device yet, or because this is not his full time job and he needs a lot of time to test the watches and create the video?
@@brinckau he reviews these devices against medical equipment so when he one device that claims to be of medical grade comes out and he doesn't review it, you'll have to question the purpose of his entire channel. Reviewers should rely on free devices to make videos anyway.
@@randompiano How do you know that he's not currently testing the D2, or waiting to have the money to buy the watch, or waiting to find some time because he's busy with his real job, or something like that?
Great Review😊 I am currently looking at the Huawei GT5 Pro which has ECG and Arterial Stiffness Measurements. So wanted to ask which of the two is the better watch? Asking because You can get the GT5 Pro for £330 and the Vantage M3 for £350 here in The UK
I'm sorry but this is just not good enough from Polar. Most of the people interested in Polar watches will be coming from their (best in the market) HR straps, and will expect better. I was hoping they'd do an early replacement of the Vantage / Grit with new sensors. Instead it looks like they're heading for another 3+ year life cycle on this sensor generation ... by which time the performance of this sensor will be even more disastrous than it is now. Surely they can do better than this.
Bro pls do a review of mi band 9 based on your review i will buy one between mi band 9, Huawei band 9 and huawei band 8. So pls do one review of mi band 9 soon ❣️
Let's face it... Polar watches are crap. It's crazy how they can make such great chest straps, yet their wrist worn wearables underperform so badly. I would never recommend them to anyone... their performance to price is bad. Thanks for the review Rob- hope you can get better rest soon.
Congrats to single Rob! now you have wide range of beautiful femails withiout brainwash and so on! nice! come to russia! Meet beautiful femails there as well!
Don't buy a garmin... their customer service is the worst. My screen failed after only 3 years...they did not stand by their 1000.00 watch... complete waste of money.

Fantastic review as always! Nice to see it performing better than the more expensive offerings from Polar!
Love the more casual vlog style footage at the start of the video. Shows a different side of you. :)
great review i'm waiting for Amazfit T rex 3 review
up
Me too
yeahhh.... me too

All the best Rob! I hope you'll soon get over the breakup.
You seem like a hot cookie, so I'm sure you'll soon find a new fine lady
Thanks for the solid review as always. Please take care and hope you feel better soon
Great review as always! Can’t wait to see t-rex 3 performance!! Maybe helio ring next?😏
Hey Rob! Can we get some more smart rings tested? Oura Ring 4, Ultrahuman, Ringconn, ....?
Love everything you do!
Thanks for the review!
Would be great to see ranking of devices by correlation of total time asleep vs PSG

Are you doing Fenix 8 and Oura 4 soon ? Great channel 🎉
As always good review 👍🙏
Cant wait for your Amazefit Trex 3 review.
Amazfit, not there yet.
I saw the Amazfit TRex 3 on your table. Its sleep tracking is not too great so far but I look forward to your review.
I do like the quick features recap.

Sorry to say but the background music is really annoying, other then that great video.
Fenix 8 please
Stay strong brother!
Love your videos man. Would love to see a comparison of the oura 4 vs ringconn gen 2!
looking forward to enduro 3 review 😊
What about testing Suutro Race S? It looks to be a direct competitor to this polar and it haa a new type of sensor.
Yes,came here looking for rase s review.
Hi. Will you test new Huawei Watch D2 someday?
I was expecting Mi band 9's Review 😥😞😣
Me too. Still waiting
Mi band 9 mi band 9 mi band 9!
We love you rob!
Why no review on Huawei watch D2? It's nice to see something a bit different with niche features.
Can you teat Suunto Race / Race S?
Hi, why you did not test the miband 9 please?
Hello my friend. Is a video on the Oura ring 4 on the way :) ? Did you got yours ?
I would really love that as well. I'm waiting with ordering until I see Rob's review 😅
Can it be that it’s not the weight of the M3 that gives it better results than the V3, but that it has newer firmware? I would be very interested to know whether the V3 with updated software is similar to M3 for its HR data
hi Rob. great video as always! do you have plan to test out Suunto Race S?
I seem to have understood that Polar M3, V3 and Grit 2 Pro are three sportwatches that have the same software functions and differ only in the case, dimensions and battery
MI BAND 9 Review please
Mi band 9 please, waiting to buy one but waiting for the review! Kind of a disappointment this M3 vs the price...correlations at .9 are quite low for what was expected and even weight lifting at .28...bad.
What cost-benefit smartband or watch would you buy or recommend that performs well with its sensors?
Very excited for the Apple Watch 10 review, just waiting for the video to see if I buy it or not. Do you know when the video will be released?
Bro we want mi band 9 scientific review
Please do Scanwatch 2 from Withings! We'd like to know if they improved :) they changed the sensors I could see.
Please focus on the HR accuracy for night time and rest time as this is not a sport watch. I'd like to use it to follow a patient with a heart failure.
can,t wait the amazfit T rex 3 review
Garmin Fenix 8 ? When you do it?
I never see anyone talking about the Fitness and Recovery Test aspects of the Polar watch with the H10.
Please check Polar H10 vs Garmin HRM Pro+🙏🙏🙏
Can you test the Sleep as Android app with polar h10 please? I am very interested in how different this app is from Sleep2.
Would love to see you do one for the FR265
I've seen some really positive stuff about the cheap Colmi smart rings online. It'd be awesome if you could provide some reviews on cheaper devices.

Hello! What’s the best smartwatch right now in the 200-400$ budget?
Hi, Can you evaluate the new amazfit t rex 3. Price and features look amazing. Thank you!
All the best. Thanks
Could you retest the Huawei Watch GT3 pro? It's so wierd it's always on top for weightlifting
I agree, these comparisons don't make sense, He compeird a actual test with a one realized 2 years ago.
Hey Rob, great work. Will regular Galaxy Watch 7 be analyzed? Thank you.
Without MIP display no buy for me. I want my watch display to stay always on without fancy gesturers to enable it the time i run. Yes, amoled is look impressive, but a watch intended for sports use is meant to show you some stats, not movies.
how come you didnt cover huawei's D2 smart watch? its meant to be medical grade
Maybe because it's better than apple watch
Maybe because Huawei hasn't sent him the device yet, or because this is not his full time job and he needs a lot of time to test the watches and create the video?
UA-cam is not his full time job and Rob has to pay for a lot of devices out of his own pocket.

I am currently looking at the Huawei GT5 Pro
which has ECG and Arterial Stiffness Measurements.
So wanted to ask which of the two is the better watch?
Asking because You can get the GT5 Pro for £330 and the Vantage M3 for £350 here in The UK
could you do a comparison of smart rings ( oura, ultrahuman and ringcoon ) ?
Please upload Apple Watch 10 sleep analysis.
For me, any polar devices have always had the highest heart rate accuracy (hairy Caucasian)
Thanks man
Please review huawei watch fit se and huawei watch fit 3😊
They should make them rectangular-ish. Like Apple watch or Huawei Watch Fit.
Please do suunto race s next!

OURA RING 4!
ESPECIALLY HEART RATE ACCURACY PLEASE!
Please can you test all Honor smartwatch please!!
Please review mi band 9
It is a sponsored review, isn't it?
Please review vivo watch 3
I'm aware that in the end it all comes down to data accuracy and maybe it's just me, but Polar devices always look a little bit outdated🤔
Ultrahuman ring
Fenix 8 plssss
T. rex 3 please
T-rex 3 review?
Can you test the Amazfit T-Rex 3?
Please mi band 9 :(
How can we not have any watch 😭 comparable to apple watch

Please amazfit t rex 3 and helio as well as the ai App pls
As we say in Spain, there are more women than fish in the open sea.
Please fenix 8
As Bad as before. It’s a garmin.
