My much loved Polar V800 seems to be coming to the end of its useful life. The battery is getting weaker and seems to have only enough juice for three runs or rides. It has gone into a huff and refuses to pair with my new iPhone 12 and with the heart rate sensor to say nothing of the cadence sensor.

I have been considering a Vantage M2: does anyone have experience of this watch for triathlons up to middle distance? The Polar website is a bit quiet on this as well as using it with the heart rate sensor and bike sensors.

I have suffered in the past with a bit of a buy-Polar-syndrome but they have brassed me off deleting the really old pre-GPS stuff from their records. My results now go to Strava so I feel a bit more flexible in my choices.
