I’m assuming you could wear the sensor on the inside of your arm and it wouldn’t make a difference correct? I have a tattoo on the outside of each arm. Might be a dumb question but would appreciate if some could let me know, thanks
Correct, you could wear this sensor on the inside of your arm as long as rubbing doesn't bug you. You could also wear this on your forearm which I've done with other similar products with good success. Thanks for watching this one Jared! 👍
Chest straps are always the most accurate option. They can have issues if they’re a little too dry but other than that, they tend to have the most accurate results. I’d also consider a more affordable chest strap heart rate option.
Hi! Thanks for the great review. Does it always need to be paired with the watch to be able to track your hr? The reason I ask is because, in addition to running, I also play beach volleyball and cannot wear my Pace 3 during game but still would like to track my hr. Thanks for your response! (PS: I do own a Polar OH1 but for some reason, 90% of the time I’m having issues pairing it with my Pace 3)
Pairing this should be very very similar to the OH1. Sounds like you want to be able to record activities in memory. That’s not something this device does. It needs to be connected to a watch to record. Sorry buddy.
@@mlegrand Thanks for your reply ! Indeed, I'd like to be able to record data in memory - so I guess getting the Coros HRM will not solve my "issues" with the OH1 and record data of other sports I do where I cannot have my watch/phone nearby
I got this band in a week, and i don't get different bpm, average and maximum, than in a cheap Amazing Band 7. So... Is it recommended to use this arm band in tandem with Coros Pace 3? Or maybe i'll gt the same, almost the same, just with the watch?
Yeah, I think it's very optional. You'll probably get very good data from the Pace 3 but it all depends on the type of activity that you're doing. Tennis would be really hard, stationary bike would be easier for these wrist based optical heart rate sensors. Thank you for watching and taking the extra time to comment. I really appreciate it. 👍
Has only one feature, even with their own watches. Polar has way more even if the rest of their products fall flat. I’ll pass for now but might kick Garmin into action
It was very similar with their pods or I do not know how they called it. Watch paired with it was surprisingly less accurate. Now we see can see new HRM band, witch is less accurate then optical sensor on others brands (apple, huawei)...
I’ve been having good luck with it as far as accuracy goes. Hopefully Coros will keep updating this product. Thank you for watching and taking the extra time to comment. I really appreciate it. 👍
