Polar Verity Sense

I’ve used several heart rate monitors over the years, and the Polar Verity Sense is easily my favorite. The biggest benefit for me is not having to wear a chest strap anymore. I find chest straps uncomfortable and restrictive, especially during longer sessions – they tend to feel tight and distracting after a while. Wearing the Verity Sense on my arm is a game-changer. It’s lightweight, barely noticeable, and stays in place securely throughout my runs and bike rides. The readings have been accurate and consistent across all my workouts. One downside is that the battery doesn’t last as long as a traditional chest strap HR monitor, but it’s rechargeable, which makes up for it. I’ve also tried using it under my swim goggles, but it puts too much pressure on my head, so I avoid it for swim sessions. This is actually my second time buying it – I liked it that much. If you want a reliable HRM without the hassle of a chest strap, this is a fantastic option. __ __ He probado varios monitores de frecuencia cardíaca y el Polar Verity Sense es, sin duda, mi favorito. Lo que más me gusta es no tener que usar la banda en el pecho, que con el tiempo se vuelve molesta y me genera una sensación de presión que me desespera un poco en entrenamientos largos. Llevar el sensor en el brazo es muchísimo más cómodo. Es ligero, apenas se nota y se mantiene bien sujeto durante sesiones de running y ciclismo. Las mediciones han sido precisas y constantes en todos mis entrenamientos. La única desventaja es que la batería no dura tanto como la de un sensor tradicional de pecho, pero como es recargable, se compensa bastante bien. Probé usarlo bajo las gafas de natación, pero me incomoda mucho en la cabeza, así que no lo uso para nadar. Esta es la segunda vez que lo compro, y eso dice mucho. Si buscas un sensor confiable y cómodo sin tener que llevar banda en el pecho, lo recomiendo totalmente.

The TL-DR is, i've only used this paired to my watch for almost 2 years with no issues, and I get good quality data. I haven't used it stand alone, or paired to the Flow App on my phone to record sessions. I have been happily using my verity sense HR band for almost 2 years now paired with my Polar (grit x pro) watch. I've also used it with my Polar Pacer Pro. In that time I've tracked just under 6,000 miles of running HR data and a lot of hours of strength training, mobility, and bike riding. I've had two bad readings in that time and both were my fault. Over all I'd say this is great value for money. The strap adjusts to my skinny runners arms, and it can get pretty long too for huge forearms. I'm a heavy user of this device and i'm a fitness professional who runs and works out every day. I came back to look at this device as I was thinking of getting another one for my wife, and a new strap for my sensor. I'm still on the original strap, and its holding up very well. If you are looking at the low star reviews, then I can see most are for people using the strap with their phone or some other cardio equipment. I've never tried that so I cant comment on that use case. I've compared the Verity Sense to my H10 and it's pretty close, I've also got a really good feel for my HR levels so I know its giving me good data, if it didn't then I'd not use it as wrong data is much worse than no data. I don't have much success with the optical HR data on the watches, as it tends to lock to my cadence from time to time. The Verity Sense is placed just below the elbow joint on my forearm and seems to work very well there. As usual with all optical HR sensors, there's a 15-30 second lag, so don't plan to use it for accurate readings while doing short intervals. That is where you need the H10 or other ECG device. Battery life is good. I get somewhere around 20-ish hours over a week of use. Now that Polar have the loop band I also use that for all day wear, and take it off when I'm using my Polar watch and Verity Sense combo, between the two I get HR (and lots of other data) readings 24/7 with no noticeable drops. Hope this helps with your choice.

I have a TRUE treadmill that uses a Polar heart rate monitor. I use the Polar Chest Strap for the treadmill and it works fine. Since I use a WAHOO brand arm heart monitor for everything else, I thought I would try the Polar Verity Sense for my True Treadmill. The Wahoo heart rate monitor is easy to use. You simply sync it to your devise and off it goes. Never had an issue for over 4 years. Not the case with this overly complicated piece of junk Verity Sense. The developer of this product should be fired. If the goal was to create on overly complicated, must sign up for the App, Agree to allow Polar to use your personal info, product then they succeed. With todays technology and ease of use this thing is a complete joke. You must sign up for the app to be able to us it. Well I did since I paid almost a hundred dollars for it. However, the thing did not work on my True Treadmill. The only product ( polar) that my treadmill is suppose to work with, would not work. Rather then take a sledge hammer to this piece of junk, ( I almost did) I sent it back. Thank god for Amazon. Return was even easier than using this trash. Look, it may monitor your heart rate real good if it works for you, but my advise is to check out the Wahoo arm Heart rate monitor. Compare them both and you will see that Wahoo is a much better product. Cost is about the same so no break there. But after four years of using the Wahoo arm heart rate monitor, I can say it monitors heart rate very accurately and is reliable.

Thank you seller Already use and device is ok.

I am amazed that a chest strap is more popular and 'supposedly' more accurate than an optical sensor. After years of annoyance with Garmin and other well known chest straps I switched to the Polar optical. These are FANTASTIC.. accurate, comfortable and reliable. I give this product 10/10 .. try it

Ottimo! Finalmente.

The arm strap is much more comfortable than the chest strap. Polar is leading in HR measurement. My wrist measurement is about 30bpm off.

Mide como la cinta de pecho, pero mucho más cómoda
