Great Features
on September 26, 2026
Posted by: ljg0
Got it about a month ago and I'm loving it. Used it every day, and it's been great. Haven't had any issues or had to charge it yet. It does take a bit to make it comfortable to wear while running, but once you get it set, it's great.

I’ve had this for almost a month and I’m loving how easy it connects to Garmin devices and my phone and the battery life in addition to being rechargeable and comfortable

Compatibility with older models of watches

I like it but it isn't compatible with the Forerunner 745XT which is the watch I use during speed work.

Does Not Provide Nordic Ski Power :-(
on September 18, 2026
Posted by: cfosp1
Do not buy the HRM 600 if you use it for Nordic skiing. I misplaced my HRM Pro and decided to "upgrade" to the HRM 600. Today, I used it for the first time for a skate roller ski workout, no power data on my Enduro 3. I thought it might be a setting on my new HRM. Not so, I should have read the reviews before I forked over the big bucks. Seriously, why remove a feature when you release a new top of the line device?

From spin class to the pool—flawless connectivity
on September 17, 2026
Posted by: JP2R
I LOVE my HRM 600. After testing and looking at so many other monitors that constantly gave me connectivity headaches—like taking forever to pair with gym spin bikes until I finally gave up—I chose this one.
Initially, I only intended to use it solely for spin class. Eventually, I progressed from that to running, and then on to swimming.
It is completely reliable, works seamlessly with everything every single time, and just handles whatever I throw at it. I am so pleased!
The HRM is perfect it syncs with everything seamlessly each and every time! SO pleased!

unit inop

I believe I received a bad HRM600. I tried pairing the unit on Aug 1st and could not, and the band is too tight.
The Venu 4 and Smart Scale S2 pair well. I am interested in also purchasing a blood pressure monitor as soon as I have the HRM working properly.

Great for open water ocean swims
on September 16, 2026

I like that the HRM 600 doesn’t need to be near my iPhone to use for open water ocean swims (or any other activity, for that matter) since it’s able to download collected data afterwards.
