Accurate aid to heart rate training
on March 4, 2026

I use the HRM 600 for heart rate training and find it more accurate than the Fenix 7S wrist monitor. Nice features include it's rechargeable and has the ability to record heart rate, steps, calories, and intensity minutes without wearing a Garmin watch.

Finally a rechargeable band
on March 3, 2026

If you train most days, the CR2032 (or similar) batteries found in most heart rate bands are probably the bane of your existence. They're pricey, changing them often jeopardizes the weather seal of the unit, and once their level start to fade, they give unreliable readings... without being obvious that the battery is dying. Finally, one that's rechargeable! As far as I know, the first and so far only one on the market. I can just pop it on the charger regularly - say once a month or before an long event - and I don't have to worry about the rest. No annoying batteries anymore.
I've been using it with my Garmin Fenix 6S watch and my NordicTrack X32 treadmill mostly successfully. I've had a data transfer issue once, but otherwise it's been doing a great job.
It uses the same charging plug as my Fenix 6, which is convenient.
Hopefully the band lasts, as despite cleaning it regularly that's usually what fails first on HR straps. But we'll see in a few years.

Works Great

Connects easily to Peleton Bike. Great that it is rechargeable. Garmin has clearly focused on reliability and am hopeful this becomes true over time as earlier models were problematic

Meh!

Doesn’t always connect with 965.
Will work. Then if you stop for a few minutes, It will disconnect and not start when you continue running. You have press the button on the hem and hope that it reconnects. And older, less expensive, hrm works better.

Full Functional HRM
on March 1, 2026
Posted by: Al_Sison
I have had various HRMs from Garmin and other manufacturers. The 600 has allowed me to track multiple activities and easily synched with my other Garmin products. The rechargeable battery is convenient. The Garmin connect app allowed me to select the activity when tracking a non-cycling sport. I have been using the HRM-600 to track my heart rate while training in martial arts!

Accurate and relatively comfortable
on February 28, 2026

I got this over a month ago as my fenix 7 Pro Sapphire Solar was not giving accurate HR stats during activities. I set up the HRM 600 and it has corrected the issue. It works fine, can take off the HR device as it snaps to the belt in order to rinse and wash it off. Note: if you get this you need to make sure for that it is not using this for satellite connectivity for outdoor activities. Originally it was doing this and the distances were off. I changed the setting and it works fine now.
