Simplicity and comfort

I've been using Polar watches for a while now. The watch sensor was generally pretty accurate and a lot better than the older Garmins I've had. I recently bought a Peloton and wanted the heart rate monitor to connect directly to the app. Not being a chest strap fan, I decided to try Verity Sense. It was very easy to get going and pairing. Very comfortable and I even use it for some of the outdoor runs I do these days.

Pros
  • Solid construction
Cons
  • So-so

Comfortable and accurate

When I was looking for a heart rate monitor, I needed a stylish and accurate one. I've spent many hours watching different videos on YouTube with different HRMs. I leaned towards the chest strap monitor as it is the most accurate. but I've watched videos of Polar's new Verity Sense strap and how accurate it compares to Polar's chest strap (which is considered the gold standard) - I wasn't disappointed. Verity Sense fits comfortably on my arm and connects quickly to multiple apps at once. Veryโ€ฆ

Attention buyers - must be Zero Stars

I have been a satisfied Polar customer for a long time. Their accuracy is well documented. I've received a lot of feedback on the accuracy of POLAR Verity Sense. My problem is the belt. If you have Barbie-sized hands, great. To call these straps tiny is an exaggeration, and there's no adjustment. The instructions clearly state that it should not be worn on the wrist. I could only lift mine two inches higher. After five minutes, the strap hurt and it seemed like blood circulation was blocked. Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Reliability

Exactly what I was looking for!

I have had a Garmin chest heart rate monitor for a number of years, the chest strap is connected to a Garmin Fenix watch. The bracelet is very accurate but to be honest I had to buy it new every year because after changing the battery the bracelet stopped working as before. I got tired of changing the strap so many times and trust me the first two replacements were provided by Garmin. One option was to wear a watch with a heart rate monitor on your wrist, but the accuracy wasn't very good. I am

Easy to use and convenient. Temporarily loses transmission.

I have been using polar optics for many years. This is an updated version or the latest version. Firstly, it is much more convenient as the strap is easily adjustable and the optics head is inserted into a curved mount. in holder. Those are all good things. My only issue is that here, as with previous iterations, the optical reader loses the ability to send a signal from time to time. I've been training for a long time and after 1/2 hour of training my heart rate starts to drop due to signalโ€ฆ

Same size as OH1 in Exercise & Fitness

I used to have a Polar OH1 but it was damaged when hit by a car. I liked the swim clip because I could use it with my regular cycling goggles. I had trouble using it as a wristband as my skin seems to be quite translucent and the sun's rays hitting that area would interfere with the readings and cut off the transmission to my Garmin. When I wear it on my temple it happens much less often because the sun has to be at a pretty perfect angle to hit my temple with the same intensity. In any caseโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
