Our Opinion

It is certainly one of the most advanced heart rate monitors on the market. In owning GPS and also serve as a bracelet activity it makes you stand out from their larger competitors. The only problem would be its high price, because now would be around € 350-400 , but if you have enough budget and are looking for something of this nature, this should be your primary choice.
