The HRM 600 is an excellent monitor but it's the data it offers that make it so useful. The information helps you to adjust your workouts and to see measurable progress. It's allowing me to really get my workouts to build toward my race day with very little trouble. I would recommend this HRM to anyone serious about training or wanting to understand more of what their body is doing.
Hello all, Honestly saying I am disappointed. Premium level HRM monitor with old fashion sensor fixing solution. Also, deattaching of sensor isn’t easy job. I almost damaged my nail and finger start bleeding. Fixing parts on strap slightly bent. It’s not written in instruction that sensor shall be deattached with any supporting tools. First impression was very negative and I was really disappointed that top cost product has such quality. You shall challenge your engineers to deliver better solutions

I'm sorry to hear that was troubling to remove the sensor. I've linked instructions below for removal of it in order to charge it. http://ms.spr.ly/6428sOTzu

How can you build such a weak-minded closure? A mad product, rechargeable and a fastening system that every three-year-old can do better. You almost have to destroy the belt to get the sensor off. Sorry, but every competitor is just miles better. And why can you only record certain sports with Girt and e.g. no walking, hiking, etc. And the price is not justifiable.
The connection point between the HRM and strap are poorly manufactured. The fit is too tight and very difficult to remove. Ended up breaking trying to separate the strap and the HRM. Wish I read online reviews first as lots of people are having this problem.
Bought this last month, took me a few runs to remember to put it on. Once that habit was developed, I noticed much more accurate and stable readings when connected to my Fenix 8. Highly recommended, I'll be buying my wife one as well.
Love its accuracy and ease of use. I haven't used to track a activity without watch yet but I will get to that eventually seems pretty easy and straight forward. I have practiced starting on my phone.
