Polar F6 Heart Rate Monitor

Book Cover

Polar F6 Heart Rate Monitor at Amazon.co.uk

The Polar F6 is an attractive and compact heart rate monitor with an extensive range of components.
In particular it has:

  • Basic heart rate in clear figures
  • Target training zones with alarm for when you go out of zones
  • Downloadable files from your training sessions
  • Allows you to check the number of calories burnt, though I always find this feature rather dubious

At £52, it is not the cheapest heart rate monitor, but, if you are looking for a relatively low price, waterproof watch and heart rate monitor the F6 will do the job.

Disadvantages of Polar F6

  • Like most Polar watches you can’t replace the battery yourself and have to get it sent off. However, they can last upto 5 years.
  • Not so easy to set up downloading of data
