It broke after 2 minutes!
on October 9, 2025
Posted by: Einar
I got the hrm 600 today, unboxed it connected the sensor to the strap, and when I tried to remove it from the strap to charge, one of the connectors broke right of!
Very inferior quality for a almost 2000 SEK heartrate monitor, garmin! Not satisfied!

Flawed Design

I agree with a lot of the reviews I now read. The point of a rechargeable HRM in my mind was to make it easier to charge and/or prevent throwing away the coin cells. I cannot get past being unable to detach the monitor from strap. I'm wondering if I am going to break it when I need to give it the first charge, as it certainly seems that way when I tried to remove it.

Hi! You will need to pull the monitor from the strap to detach the two pins holding it. I included a helpful Getting Started article below.

Comfy and Easy!

Easy to set up and connect to my Edge! The battery life is great and I love that I can just use the watch charger to power it back up!

I hope the replacement last longer. I’m disappointed Garmin.

good

battery has been dropping about 10% per hour of use, not the long term potential that is advertised.
the additional metrics are enjoyable for me such as left and right balance, spikes of heart rate on anaerobic activities otherwise not observed by optical sensor, and running economy.

Simply elegant
on September 1, 2025

Great product, easy to use and very reliable data. The only concern is at the first 2-3 uses, the device is really tight to the strap creating a difficulty to pull away from it and causing a perceived notion that it might break by pulling. After a few uses it comes off easily.

Broke Before I Could Even Use It

The snap-on buckles broke before I could even track a workout, right out of the box. This is a known issue and it's just poor quality control.

Band stuck
on August 21, 2025
Posted by: FontanM
Charge it before you attache it to the band. I’m still not able to remove it after attaching it. After multiple attempts and different people trying I have the impression that it’s going to end up breaking once removed.
