Bad product, wrong display

Worked for 10-20 minutes and lost connection to bike computer, sometimes reconnected but showed very low heart rate. Battery changed but still not working.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • Update available

What is important, not exactly

Unfortunately it doesn't work for me, it syncs easily with the app on my phone, it's practical, it looks like it's made with quality materials; However, the most important thing is the accuracy, and the readings are not accurate, as in the photo. sorry but we refund

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

Totally inaccurate monitor

I also found this product extremely inaccurate. The baseline was around 120 beats per minute with no possibility of recalibration. The average heart rate and maximum were incredibly high. Perhaps the company should look into quality control as this seems to be a common issue with their product.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

DO NOT BUY <-- inaccurate data

Reported heart rate data is very inaccurate. I already have many heart rate monitors, but I bought this one to keep my Wahoo trainer with it. For example, the Garmin system, iFit system, and Apple Watch report a heart rate of 115-120, but this band shows 152. That's a terrible band. Do not buy.

Pros
  • Constant test results
Cons
  • Requires outlet

Easy to set up; Works straight away

I read the negative reviews and had none of these issues: the data is accurate (I checked it against my blood pressure monitor) and it connected to my bike computer straight away. The band is comfortable and the contact pad maintains the connection without the need for an electrolytic paste like Buh-Bump. After a week of use, they became mandatory on the bike, as did speed or cadence data.

Pros
  • Use of spare batteries
Cons
  • Uncertain

Good product for heart rate monitor

Was prepared for some disappointment with cheap Chinese junk as it costs significantly less than various other alternatives. I've bought several of these over the years and have usually suffered from poor interfaces or various other incompatibilities. This time NO. Worked perfectly. A small light will flash to confirm it is "doing something". The strap is comfortable but the connection of the strap is a bit small/weak so this may or may not be a potential issue (in the future) - but for now…

Pros
  • How to select wireless mode
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Inaccurate - Fitness Technology

Purchased for use with my Concept 2 rower which comes with a PM5 monitor. Pair tethering offered as a few options - I suggest using ANT+ as it seems faster. One note - I'm 6ft 1" and 210lbs, chest 44-45" and the strap fits me. but very close to the end of the setup. I suspect the strap will stretch a bit over time, but if you're taller than me, be aware it may be too small. Also, the strap attachment mechanism seems pretty flimsy, I could possibly see it breaking down over time. That hasn't…

Pros
  • Dual mode wireless technology - Bluetooth BLE4.0 / ANT+
Cons
  • Dull packaging
