Have used it on all my runs for a month now, (150+ miles) and it’s easy to use and clean. Nothing like accurate heart readings for your data. Haven’t even had to charge it yet.
Great features, and a solid upgrade from the HRM P

I've been a happy user of the HRM Pro. I like the detachable HR unit and the charging capabilities but I'm still getting used to the differences of the HRM Pro. Take note, I'm a small guy with a 38" chest and the small size strap barely is long enough. Not quite inline with the description. If it were I'd go 5 stars. I'm still quite happy though.
Minus: -less comfortable dan HRM Pro (yellow) I fill something "hard" -I had a problem to connect on Fenix in ANT+ mode (I had to delete connection Blueetoth and add again) -It's ok in 95% of use, maybe software update get some battery extended for ultra racers (read and send 2-3 time less than normal Plus -don't care about battery, care about cable, small size, i don't care about how long I can clean in water. I can disconnect device
I bought this HRM-600 to replace my older HRM-Pro Plus that had developed an unpleasant deteriorating rubber smell. I like the fact that the 600 has a detachable pod which makes it convenient for regular cleaning of the strap. I only use the HRM for road biking, and I appreciated the fact that the prior Pro Plus used a coin battery (that I had to change once a year), so not as in favor of the new rechargeable model which is "yet another device battery to recharge". I suspect most of the other improved features are nice to have if you use them... but I do not and therefore hard to understand the steep price increase.
Didn't connect to my watch Still debating on sending it back If I turn off the wrist HR from ny watch the band does not send a signal so I am not sure it works
