    There are disadvantages, but the product is usable.

    I bought it to replace a failed Garmin HRM-Tri (for three years, the plastic of the battery cover went like a cobweb, began to leak moisture. Attempts to reanimate, somehow seal it did not bring a positive effect. As a result, I threw it on the shelf, although the electronics themselves are still quite alive) . Polar was five years before Garmina. I changed the belts periodically, the sensor itself is still like new. Therefore, I decided to return to the Polar sensor again. What was my…

    Pros
    • Connects seamlessly to your phone, Garmin watches, gym equipment. Allows you to measure heart rate variability (HRV or HRV)
    Cons
    • Tight fastening of the sensor to the belt. Because of this, after a month of use, problems with the belt began. The pulse still showed more or less normal, due to internal averaging of readings. But when measuring HRV, there was one continuous noise from extrasystoles on the graph. In the Polar Sensor Loogger app, this is very clearly visible.

    The quality is so-so, the price does not match the quality.

    I won't buy a second time. I gave the second star only because I worked for half a year and worked for about 500 km. But a top-end sensor in terms of class and price without a single moving part can start to fail so quickly. In the photo, notice how even the pace of the run is and what the H10 is actually doing! In reality, only 3 km out of 11 runs he showed the truth, and the rest of the time he showed anything, but not real data.

    Pros
    • Accuracy of measurements flawlessly WHEN WORKING, and he worked for the first half of the year. Wears comfortably.
    Cons
    • Broke down very quickly. For half a year! Accuracy of measurements - I began to lose my pulse for several tens of minutes in a row, it shows a resting pulse that changes plus or minus a little while running, which is very funny! I stopped connecting to mobile applications like Adidas and Polar, although the bluetooth sees it. It helps to remove the battery every other time, reset the settings and connect everything again, but it already infuriates. It continues to connect normally to the harmines on the arm, but as mentioned above, you run for several minutes without understanding the pulse and the averages simply fly down significantly. An absolutely unreliable device has become for any conclusions about training. The Polar website does not provide any help except for the banal ones - buy an electro gel (I bought it), wet the electrodes (urine), pull out the battery to reboot (I pull it out :))))

    Complete disappointment, the product is not at all what I imagined.

    For half a year it worked fine, and then it started, then the pulse falls off, then the pulse freezes, then the pulse drops to 80 and stays at this level for several minutes! Replacing the battery did not save. In general, it was wild to see from the polar, there is also a Chinese sensor with Ali, so it works much more stable of this vaunted polar ! I also read reviews about it, watched reviews, supposedly the coolest sensor, as a result, wasted money !

    Pros
    • Not
    Cons
    • Stupid buggy device

    Before that, I just ran with Suunto 9, took the pulse from the optical sensor, it was often inaccurate, very low, jumped a lot. In February, I started training with a running coach. He immediately said to take a chest strap, only with him you can analyze training. I asked in the running chat what they use besides Polar - it was Garmin, but there were reviews on it, it just happened to fail and for some it slipped down. I studied the positive reviews on the Internet and eventually settled on…

    Pros
    • Accurately measures the pulse, I can be sure of the training data. Easily paired with Suunto 9.
    Cons
    • Not yet

    Cool product, happy with the purchase, maybe I'll buy it again.

    Since the built-in sensors of the simulator show the pulse practically from the bulldozer, on the recommendation of the seller of the NordicTrack simulators, we bought this particular heart rate monitor for it. And they weren't wrong. The heart rate monitor was picked up by the simulator instantly. The thing is certainly useful, to see your exact pulse on the display of the simulator Pts. comfortable. For AppleWatch owners, I want to inform you that according to the results of operation, the…

    Pros
    • It is picked up by the NordicTrack ellipsoid immediately without any influence from the athlete. Measures accurately. Very good native programullina.
    Cons
    • On my "thin" 56th size fit with difficulty. If more than one person in the house plans to work with him, then rearranging the size on the belt is still a "pleasure". I suspect that soon I will have to change the belt, and it costs some awkward money.

    I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

    Worth your money. Has pros: Well measures the pulse, does not lose the connection. Much more accurate than sensors on watches/bracelets Cons: I did not connect to the adidas application, it turned out that I just think for a long time 3-4 minutes

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

    Great stuff. Put on and ran. Incredibly convenient to control the load. Even if the track supported 5 kHz, it would be absolutely super. Pros: It measures accurately, you don’t feel it on the run, you easily forget about it. The standard application for iOS is intuitive and does not even require registration. Different cons: If there was also an accelerometer in it - counting steps and that's all - it would be absolutely excellent.

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    Good product at a good price, I recommend to try it.

    Has pros: Works great in conjunction with the Apple Watch SE and a program for them for 99, which allows you to control the heart rate zone. Cons: It was not possible to connect simultaneously to 2 devices: iPhone SE 2022 and Apple Watch SE, although this is a declared feature. It connects to each separately without problems.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

    Its pros: Works correctly, perfectly interfaces with both the phone and the simulators. But on the simulators there is a lag of 1-2 seconds from what is shown on the phone. Got cons: Of the shortcomings - the smell of rubber from the strap after 3 months of use.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

    benefits from The gadget is effective:) It's easy to use because it links up to the simulators and displays the pulse. The strap does not slide around even when you're running. Consequences with. The strap needs to be washed after each training session, or else it would start to smell like stale socks in a week. It's not exactly a time saver. where do I put the damp strap?

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    A wonderful product, it's nice to use.

    The outcome of the deal met with one's expectations. In addition to strength training, I use it for running, rollerskiing, cross-country rollerskiing, and rollerskiing. That actually works out pretty well. It is sad that neither the device itself nor the software for the Polar Flow offers a control for the amount of battery life that is still left. Because of recent developments in miniaturization, a battery may also be able to be incorporated into the gadget. Because of this, the program…

    Pros
    • Accuracy in addition to a consistent approach. Building of an exceptionally high standard. It performs without a hitch regardless of whether or not the belt is damp. The capability to record even a very lengthy workout in the device's internal memory, which may be played back afterwards.
    Cons
    • Because there is no signal that the battery is running low (when I arrived for the training session, I was unable to start it), you are need to always bring a backup battery with you. If you start using the Polar Flow software without first activating GPS, there will be no indication of your heart rate, and nothing will be recorded. Also, the software will not permit you to store any of your data in any format.

    After roughly three months of use, the strap began to emit an unpleasant odor. a scent resembling that of plastic. After every workout, I give the strap a good cleaning, which is made more uncomfortable by the fact that certain deficiencies were discovered at such an early stage. The strap has a slight bend to it where there is a groove; while this is not a deal breaker, for the amount I paid, I would like that there were no issues of this nature. It would be incorrect to highlight any of the…

    Pros
    • Reliable heart rate sensor, relatively straightforward mounting, interoperability with various devices, incl. Availability for use with a mobile phone.
    Cons
    • Given the very straightforward nature of its functions, it could stand to be a little less expensive. Strap with a pungent odor.

    What you need, a cool purchase, I advise you.

    Pros below: Everything works well out of the box, sits comfortably and does not interfere Cons below: I bought it for orbitek classes, but there is no such program in the Polar Bean application, in principle you can use any other, but it’s not clear why they ignored it.

    Purchased with the goal of putting it to use during workouts on an Oxygen T12 treadmill. As I sit here wired in, it gives me a readout of the heart rate. The pulse was simultaneously shown on the phone and the track. As soon as I begin jogging, my phone's pulse indicator begins to rise; but, when I'm on the track, it displays approximately half as much and disappears intermittently. I also put it through its paces on a different song, Harizen Adventure 5. When the runner reaches the middle of…

    Pros
    • Comfortable. Have a comfortable seat.
    Cons
    • Nevertheless, compatibility with treadmills is not guaranteed beyond a distance of 1 meter, and the connection is lost at 80 cm.

    Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

    I downloaded the Polar Flow applications, which is an application that maintains a workout log. I installed the Polar Beat application, which is a program that monitors real-time heart rate and displays the pulse zone in which the individual who is wearing the sensor is now placed. Has pros: 1. A watch is not required for this sensor, which is a cardiosensor. At this point in time, it does not make sense to purchase watches or any other items that are not necessary. There is no object that…

    Not satisfactory, upset with the product.

    Now I chose not to focus on the fact that the issue is contained within it and instead spend 3,500+ on a native replacement strap. OR purchase for $300 from Ali. The equivalent in Chinese. Alternatively use the Garmin HRM Pro and test it against the other devices (with a Garmin watch, it allows you to see running performance). Has pros: Strap is easy on the shoulders. "Picked up" in a hurry with Bluetooth technology, an iPhone loaded with a variety of applications, and Garmin watches. Cons…

    Disappointed with the product, not good for anything.

    Does not in any way justify the $5,500 that I invested in purchasing it! Given the functions that were carried out, a standard Xiaomi bracelet that costs 1,500 won would suffice. I have not yet had to replace the battery, but at such a low cost, there ought to be batteries that are capable of being recharged. I should not have spent so much money on things that were considered ordinary. These are some advantages: There are no benefits, yet it does in some way carry out the function that was…
