I thought the charging system was a good idea. The ISSUE is this HRM never stays paired with Zwift. I called support at Garmin and we got it to work on July2nd and to day July 8th on Zwift it shows paired but no heart rate is recorded. Hate it
Been wearing HRM for a while and tried this one out fell off twice during a baseball session and then the third time dealing with it was a deal breaker and had to return it.
In highly active sports, this is a significant more accurate gauge of Heart rate. As a recovering heart patient I was often alarmed by the heart rate numbers the wrist gauge was telling me. Now I know I'm safe in what I'm doing with my health concerns.
I’ve been a Garmin loyalist for years, and the HRM‑600 just reminded me why. The accuracy is unreal, the running‑dynamics data is next‑level, and the step speed loss metric has genuinely tightened up my form and helped me hold pace with way less drift. The strap is tough, comfortable, and the battery feels like it runs forever.
Yeah, it’s pricey, that’s the one downside. But if you’re serious about training, data, and actually improving, it’s worth every dollar. I’m genuinely happy I picked it up. It feels like one of those upgrades that pushes you toward the version of yourself you’re trying to build.
