Polar H10 Heart Rate Sensor – Black – ANT+ & Bluetooth, ECG/EKG Accuracy, HRV Tracking, Waterproof, Machine-Washable Strap, Comfortable Fit, Replaceable Battery, Sports & Gym Compatible M-XXL 75-115cm

A fantastic heart rate sensor! I recently had a heart attack and was looking for something to monitor my heart during recovery and walks. Firstly I tried a Fitbit Charge 6 and was extremely disappointed at the lack of functionality with regards to a dedicated HR screen. It's just an overpriced fancy watch with some exercise stuff. So I took a peek at Polar, after a recommendation from a friend (who is in the Navy and uses these for fitness tests). They're far cheaper than a Fitbit, easy to use, have an easy to use app with GPS to track your routes and it saves all the data collected onto your phone to review as time goes on. I've used this a couple of times and it feels okay, doesn't come off while walking, is fairly comfortable and simple to put on/take off. If you're looking for a more HR and ECG based device, definitely choose this rather than a Fitbit!

So the H10 is very good heart rate monitor. Works well during exercise, stretching, running, hiking and martial arts - generally fits nicely and snugly on the chest during all physical activity - that you can forget that it is on. Connection with smartphone during recording exercise - it is very well, it can loose connection if you are using other app requiring the GPS access, then you need to refresh the app (polar beat - just refresh) as other wise it will stop working due to some issues with multitasking and sharing processing at the smart phone. Alto it is work well if you use option of the recording the exercise with the H10 heart sensor and download after you finish. IT works well with watch, no problem at all, no loosing signal, very accurate. The software and app is extremely good and user friendly, providing very good analytical data, and information which you need in nice easy to read format. Compared to the Sunnto, and Garmin software - the way how the data is collected and presented was winner for me to choose the Polar chest heart rate H10. As did not have chance to test it in the water as the swimming - can not comment on that. It works well at the rain and storm weather when you are completely soaked tho :) The strap itself is good size with length regulation. Is has some silicon bumps which helps to keep it nice and comfortable in one place, so it not move around during the high activity exercises. It is very easy to change battery - which make this product last very long. Tested it connected to the watch and smartphone at the same time as it support simultaneously twin connection into the two devices at the same time!!! as well as it can work with one device, and on its own, no need to take phone with you - if you click in the app start recording with the sensor rather life recording with the app, then you can just go with the sensor and when you finish just download the information to the phone. So yes I would recommend it.

****Review update**** I originally gave this product 3 stars - I was having mixed results with it. I assumed that this HRM was not able to maintain and record bluetooth and 5Ghz "gymlink" connections at the same time. I would switch the app on (polar or wazoo) in my gym. The PRECOR gym kit would show my HR, but when I checked the app, it showed significant drop outs. I RESOLVED this. It transpired that this was a power management issue on my phone, if I was using Spotify/Netflix at the same time, my phone was not running HR tracker apps in the background. My phone is a Huawei P30 Pro - I went to settings>Battery>App Launch and turned off "Manage Automatically" for each fitness app. Now it appears to operate flawlessly. Both for CV and resistance workout. Now - I give this 5 STARS The Polar H10 features a suite of connectivity options as follows; - ANT+ - which is a Garmin product, and I've yet to find a use for it. I own no compatible equipment. - Bluetooth - great - can support 2 devices simultaneously. - 5ghz "gymlink" - which can connect to some gym equipment eg. Precor In the Polar app you can switch each of these off - I guess this would save power. I cant comment on battery life - not used it for long enough but polar app shows it as "FULL" after 8-10 hours training. The strap is not one of the generic ones, has a plastic clip to connect it together, which I hope will hold up. The cheaper ones have a metal clip. The Polar app is more than sufficient for me - provides a number of profiles for different activities. And a good HR readout is provided at the end, and you can easily see the HR zones as you train. Ive also tried it with Strava, MapMyRun, and Wazoo. All with good results. I cant comment on water resistance - others have commented on this, but I do not swim with this on.

This heart rate strap is a real game-changer. The accuracy is insane, way better than any watch sensor. It connects to all my gear without any issues (Bluetooth and ANT+) and is so comfortable I forget I'm even wearing it. Plus, the strap is washable and you can change the battery yourself. If you're looking for a reliable heart rate monitor, just get this one. 10/10, highly recommend

Comme d’habitude chez ce fabriquant finlandais, c’est du haut de gamme et vraiment à la pointe. Le cardio très bien adapté a une multitude de sport. Dans mon cas je l’utilise pour le running et le vélo (VTC surtout). La sangle pectorale est bien conçue et très confortable, elle se fait totalement oublier sitôt mise et elle ne glisse pas lors des entrainements, ce qui est très agréable. Je l’utilise connecté à mon smartphone mais le H10 peut enregistrer sans aucun appareil externe jusqu’à 30 heures d’informations de fréquence cardiaque avec une précision d’une seconde. Note : ces informations sont considérées comme une seule séance d’entrainement, il faut donc synchroniser les données via l’application Power Flow avant de recommencer un entrainement. Un autre point fort du H10 est la possibilité de se connecter via Bluetooth au smartphone et via ANT+ (protocole d’interopérabilité entre matériel) pour interagir avec la plupart des appareil de fitness (vélos, rameurs, tapis de course…) et également des montres de marques autre que Polar. Note : les connections peuvent être simultanées (i.e. connections au smartphone et un appareil de fitness). Si vous possédez une GoPro vous pourrez même superposer votre fréquence cardiaque synchronisée avec la vidéo ! Il semble peu énergivore, après un mois d’utilisation Polar Beat indique que la pile est toujours à pleine capacité ; il est donné pour 400 heures d’entrainement. La pile (CR2025) se change facilement. La sangle capte les battements cardiaques à l’aide de capteurs enregistrant les signaux électriques ce qui est très précis. Coté utilisation, j’utilise Polar Beat. L’application est, en ce qui me concerne, vraiment bien conçue, très intuitive et ergonomique. Sélection de l’activité, « start » … point final. Ensuite l’application affiche les données de l’entrainement (durée, distance, fréquence cardiaque avec max et moyenne, Kcal consommés, % de graisse consommé…) et la trace GPS et carte du parcours. Toutes les séances sont historisées pour consultation ultérieure du parcours avec toutes les données. Elle dispose d’un mode permettant de calculer votre VO2 max, de 2 modes de coaching etc… tout est prévu pour optimiser votre potentiel d’entrainement. En bref, le Polar H10+ est le compagnon idéal pour tous les sportifs réguliers…

Authentic product, works brilliantly
