FITCENT Heart Rate Monitor Armband, Bluetooth ANT+ Optical Heart Rate Sensor Arm Band, Rechargeable Fitness Tracker for Peloton Strava Zwift Polar Beat DDP Yoga Wahoo Fitness Garmin Watch

Great alternative to Whoop.
Had a subscription for whoop and wanted to make use of the impact sleeve I got with it. This works great with the Polar app. I use it just for training Jiu-Jitsu and everything else with an Apple Watch. Make a great companion.

Works well but..
2 things to note1) the magnetic charger has a very short lead, and a weak magnet. So I’d suggest making a definite space for it to charge where it will not be disturbed.2) Accuracy seems good but it does feel a little flimsy and cheap, and certainly doesnt seem to have as good a plastic material case as say a Scosche or a Polar armband – but it works well.

Comfortable, but the app I wanted it to work is incompatible
This watch can only take heart rate and steps, which is more for when you are actually doing exercise. It is not designed as a smart watch for you to wear all day and that tracks your sleep and how many flights of stairs you climb.The watch is comfortable to wear, a lot better than silicone straps but it does not look as durable as silicone straps.The strap is fully adjustable with velcro on the ends. The length of the strap is designed for forearm or upper arm wearing rather than on the wrist as it is too long for most ladies’ wrist.There is a charging dock included works with magnets, which is quite handy.There are a list of compatible apps given in the instruction, I have tested it one by one:X-fitness – not in PlaystoreWahoo fitness – worksPolar beats – worksStrava – you need to link to a fitness app that you have already been usingZwfit – device not showing upRuntastic Pro – not in PlaystoreNick+ RUN Club (Nike Run Club??) – not in Playstore (Nike Run Club is but could not get it to work!)DaFit – does not workVeryfit – does not workWoFit – does not workI am sure there are a lot of other fitness apps that would work too but you won’t know until you have bought the watch and try it out. It is a lot of messing about in my opinion as you will need to register an account on each app before you know if it is working or not.Unfortunately, the app that I want this to work on did not work with this watch.I have compared my £30 smart watch side-by-side, both showing the same instant heart rate, and my smart watch does a lot more.For a £35 fitness band that does less than my £30 smart watch, I give this watch three stars for its comfort and lightweight.

Brilliant heart monitor
Really accurate very easy to set up with Bluetooth.I use it on indoor trainer and out door cycling. Good battery life

Ich habe den Pulsmesser jetzt seit ca 1 1/4 Jahren und bin mit der Funktion, dem Umgang und der einfache Verbindung zu anderen Geräten zufrieden.Am Anfang hat der Pulsmesser locker 5h Sport durchgehalten. Mittlerweile ist nach einer 3/4h Schluss. Das ist echt enttäuschend. Also keine Weiterempfehlung von mir.

I bought this HRM after experiencing connectivity problems with my Garmin Dual HRM. It stopped connecting to Zwift, a very big part of my exercise regimen.The new HRM worked like a charm straight out of the box after the initial charge, of course. Connecting to my Garmin Fenix 6 was easy, and just as easy to connect with Zwift as well.Compared to the chest strap, this HRM is placed around your arm just above the elbow, and I must admit, it is a far superior fit! Very comfortable to wear, and I am unable to fault the data as well.I wish there were a few more metrics, of course, but what tech junkie doesn’t feel that way?It is affordable, easy to use, comfortable to wear, and compatible with my Fenix 6 watch, iPhone, iPad, Windows 11, and Zwift. Who can ask anything more at this price point? Perfect.
