Common questions

How much does the Polar Vantage V2 cost?
The Polar Vantage V2 has a list price of $499.
Does the Polar Vantage V2 require a subscription?
No. The Polar Vantage V2 has no subscription — you pay for the hardware once and the Polar app is included.
How long does the Polar Vantage V2 battery last?
About 7 days of typical use per charge. Heavy GPS use, an always-on display, and continuous sensing all pull that number down.
Is the Polar Vantage V2 waterproof?
The Polar Vantage V2 is rated 10 ATM (100m), which covers showering, swimming, and surface water sports. It is not a dive rating.
Do you need a phone to use the Polar Vantage V2?
No. The Polar Vantage V2 records, stores, and shows your data on the device itself — a phone is for syncing and review, not for tracking.
Is the Polar Vantage V2 still worth buying?
The Polar Vantage V2 came out in 2020 and Polar has discontinued it, so new stock is limited and prices vary. Check it against the current smartwatch lineup before buying.
