Review on POLAR H10 HR Sensor: Bluetooth Enabled, πŸ‹οΈ Black, M-XXL – Advanced Accuracy for Heart Rate Monitoring by Anastazja Olejnik ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product did not disappoint, the quality pleases.

The strap "smelled" after operating for around three months. There has a distinct plastic odor. After every workout, I wash the strap, which is especially uncomfortable given that some flaws emerged so quickly. Although the slight bending of the strap caused by the groove is not a deal-breaker, considering the price, I would like the lack of such issues. Any other flaws are more specific to the Polar Beat application, so they shouldn't be mentioned here. The device is not awful overall. I haven't used it for more than six months, so I can't speak to the battery's durability in particular, but changing the battery is simple. I did not observe any issues with device pairing either. Although I haven't tried it and don't see the point, it is also possible to use two applications to control the pulse simultaneously on a single device. Even two applications are more for comparison than out of a true need. Well, no other device can match the precision of the level of the chest heart rate sensor under load (except for similar ones, of course)

Pros
  • Reliable heart rate sensor, relatively straightforward mounting, interoperability with various devices, incl. Use with a phone is possible.
Cons
  • It might be a little less expensive given the functionality's relative simplicity. Strap that smells.
