Polar H7 Bluetooth Heart Rate Sensor & Fitness Tracker

Fascia con cardiofrequenzimetro, che si collega alle classiche applicazioni per monitorare l'attività fisica, quindi non direttamente accoppiata col telefono.INDOSSABILITÀPraticamente la versione M-XXL va bene per la maggior parte di persone poiché ha una circonferenza che va da 70 a 110cm ma essendo molto elastica si adatta volendo anche a qualcosa in meno o in più.La cosa più positiva rispetto ad altre fasce che ho provato è che funziona anche senza inumidirla, chiariamo però che sono abbastanza magro e non so se sia la stessa cosa con persone più robuste.Come sempre poi bisogna utilizzarla più volte per riuscire a capire la giusta regolazione di larghezza per evitare che stringa troppo senza però essere troppo larga da non riuscire a percepire il battito. In ogni caso lascia sempre quel fastidioso segno/sagoma a fine allenamento.PRECISIONECome la maggior parte dei cardio a fascia è vicino alla perfezione. L'unico problema è se la fascia è troppo larga perde qualche secondo i battiti, ma non è mai successo come riportato in altre recensioni che impazzisce con battiti altissimi o bassissimi. Se vogliamo essere super pignoli ho notato un leggerissimo ritardo di qualche secondo nella frequenza cardiaca confrontando con un pulsossimetro.COMPATIBILITÀIn pratica compatibile con la maggior parte delle applicazioni del settore. Unica accortenza su Runstatic Pro bisogna cercarla come "Runtastic Combo Hr Monitor" e non come fascia generica.BATTERIA CR2025Usata quasi tutti i giorni per 3 mesi, staccando però il terminale dalla fascia a fine allenamento.Per non compromettere la capacità della batteria quando si cambia sarebbe preferibile usare guanti in lattice e pinzette senza toccare a mani nude.CONCLUSIONIRapporto qualità prezzo migliore in assoluto, a meno si trova la GEONAUTE di Decathlon ma ha una qualità sicuramente minore. CONSIGLIATA 5/5

Yo lo compré para medir la variabilidad de mi ritmo cardiaco (hrv) y funciona super bien, lo utilizo con la app Elite HRV de android (también utilizo la app de polar).Antes de comprarlo me preocupaba el hecho de que en las descripciones del h7 decian que solo funcionaba con un puñado de celulares con android (puro de gama alta) y yo no tenía ninguno de los que mencionaban. Aun asi me arriesgué y lo compré ya que tengo una tablet samsung galaxy tab 4 y en ella funcionó perfectamente y también tengo un celular samsung de los más baratitos con kitkat y también funcionó solo que no tan bien ya que el celular es muy lento.En el anuncio decía que si lo pedia antes de tres horas el h7 me llegaría al día siguiente, así lo hice y fue verdad me llegó en la tarde del día siguiente, aunque si pides que te llegue al día siguiente, te sale más caro.Tengo pocos días con él y no le he usado mucho, me preocupa un poco la duración de la batería ya que no es recargable.Otra cosa que he notado es que no funciona muy bien estando acostado ya que si estás boca arriba y te mueves la banda se atora con la cama se desacomoda y a veces hasta los sensores se despegan y se pierde la lectura y si estás boca abajo pues el h7 es incomodo, lo mejor es usarlo de pie o sentado, no lo he probado en el agua.

Both my husband and I use these with the Polar FT7 watch for a wrist display we can check during runs and Runkeeper for data tracking, and we love them.I have tachycardia (POTS) and it's important for me to both exercise frequently and monitor my heart rate while doing so, to make sure it doesn't get too high - even on meds and other treatment, it's easy for me to exceed 80% max HR in the first minute or two of a run without pushing myself much. The Polar sensors have been great for this - they're very reliable. It helps immensely to be able to tell when I'm tired because my POTS symptoms are worse versus when I'm simply tired.Also, *if* you use a Polar wrist display or the Polar Beat app (more on that below), Polar uses a very accurate algorithm to calculate calories burned based on heart rate (plus age, weight, height, and gender). This is great when I'm counting calories for weight loss.I also love that the sensor detaches when you're not using it, so the battery doesn't drain as fast.One of my few complaints is that my husband's monitor seems to be more prone to losing signal or showing a clearly incorrect heart rate (very high or very low) than mine is (although mine does that occasionally). This may be a problem with the watch (apps don't always pick up the same inconsistencies). I've also had it happen when the band wasn't tight enough, or the battery was close to dying - and I suspect my husband's chest hair has something to do with his more frequent inconsistencies. None of this is a big enough deal to drop a star, especially compared to previous monitors I've used.Watch Pairing: It pairs easily with the FT7 watch; we'd both been using those with the included non-bluetooth sensors, but the watches picked up the new sensors within 30 seconds. We didn't need any special pairing procedures; the watches picked up the signal on their own - and as far as we can tell, they don't get mixed up even when we're running side by side.Phone Pairing (Android): The important thing to remember here is that you don't pair the sensor with the *phone*, but with the *app*. If you go into the Bluetooth pairing settings in your phone, as you would to pair a headset, it won't find a signal for the heart monitor. This is normal. Instead, make sure Bluetooth is on, go into the app you want to use, and check the Settings. Most third party apps have a setting you can turn on to use a heart rate sensor. If I remember correctly, MapMyFitness handled both that and sensor pairing in the Settings when I used it; RunKeeper handles pairing from the map screen (turning on the sensor setting adds a gray heart in the bottom right corner of the map, which bounces when it detects an unpaired sensor and turns red and beats when it's reading your HR). Check the FAQ on the app's website or do a search if you're not sure.Apps (Android):- Polar Beat (Polar's app) is okay for stationary or studio workouts, but just okay. It does give you a nice HR chart and that lovely accurate calorie count that Polar is so good at. However, you'll want to keep it on your body if you're moving around a lot, because this app loses signal very easily if you get your body in between the sensor and the phone. For outdoor workouts, there are much better free apps available; Polar Beat would frequently fail to map my run at all, or stop somewhere in the middle when it lost GPS signal, and its distance measurements weren't particularly accurate. I haven't used it for runs since March 2015, so this may have changed, but I'm not holding my breath.- Third Party: I haven't found an app yet that doesn't pair easily with this, since Polar is the standard in heart monitors. I'm a fan of Runkeeper since it gives you access to your heart rate charts without a subscription, but that's personal preference. I've also easily paired it with MapMyFitness, Endomondo, some random app that's supposed to calculate your "morning readiness" from heart rate, and probably some other workout apps I'm forgetting about. Take your pick - most of them have pairing instructions on their websites if you need them.- Multiple App Pairing: You can use the monitor with multiple apps simultaneously IF the apps allow - some don't. For example, I was able to use it with MapMyFitness and Polar Beat (for accurate calorie count) at the same time without problems; Runkeeper, however, won't even detect the monitor if another app that's running is already using it. For best results, use the window cascade feature to look at what you have running in the background, and close everything that connects to the monitor if you don't need it. However, there's no problem with having multiple apps installed and paired with it as long as they're not all running; you don't have to re-pair each time you switch apps.For reference, both my husband and I have HTC One M8 phones.Multiple Devices on Signal: I've had no problems with the monitor transmitting to the phone and watch at the same time, nor with it sharing the phone's bluetooth signal with headphones.Random tips: If you can't get your phone to pick up the signal, do the usual (reboot, close and restart app, turn Bluetooth off/on). Then check to make sure the strap is snug, especially across the front of the chest, and make sure the sensor is snapped in securely. You can wet the sensor area of the inside of the strap (the vinyl-like part) with water (or, if that's not enough, with salt water or electroconductive gel) if you're still having problems. After that, check the battery. I also find that sometimes the watch, if you have one, is a more reliable test of whether it's working than the phone is.Changing the Battery: Pretty straightforward DIY. I've found it's easiest to use a narrow key ring to turn the battery cover, and make sure to *pay attention* to how the battery cover is oriented in the "loose" position before you remove it, because it's really hard to loosen it again if you replace it in the wrong position and tighten it, and it's not water/sweatproof unless it's seated right. It fits tight, but I had no trouble with it even though I'm sometimes not strong enough to open sealed jars.In summation, this is awesome and I love it. Mine has been working fine for almost a year with one battery change, my husband's for 7+ months. We'll see how long the fresh batteries last.

¡Estupendo! Pero compra pilas adicionales con él! Pila: CR2025.Hago estudios que usan la variabilidad del ritmo cardíaco (HRV), así que quería realizar un seguimiento de la mía en casa - y esto es una gran manera barata y fiable para hacerlo - además lo puedo usar mientras se ejecuta. De hecho, hay numerosos estudios académicos que verifican lecturas precisas de la HRV con la Polar H7. A falta de un ECG, esta es una opción bastante buena y barata para la medición de la HRV.LO BUENO:Es barato, es fiable, viene con todo lo que necesita para empezar, si usted tiene un movil inteligente ya. Se puede utilizar con la mayoría de dispositivos, por lo que no es necesario comprar un reloj específico. Es muy sencillo de utilizar, en mi iPhone 6s Plus y el iPad he activado Bluetooth, y allí estaba. Se tomó unos segundos para conectarse como se puede ver en mi video.Hay un montón de aplicaciones gratuitas que se pueden usar con él. Para mirar mi HRV utilizo...Para la aptitud y la formación, se puede conectar fácilmente a las aplicaciones gratuitas, como RunKeeper, MapMyRun, y Endomondo, además hay un montón más.LO MALO:No es cómodo para largos períodos de tiempo.La pila necesita ser reemplazada después de un corto período de tiempo. Hubiese preferido tener una opción recargable.No puedo quejarme demasiado. Hace exactamente lo que dicen que debe hacer, y es un buen precio en comparación con otros productos.

For my exercise needs, this is way better than getting a Polar watch.I had a Polar watch for many years, until I lost it. It was expensive and I was reluctant to replace it. So, I then tried Garmin and some other cheaper varieties. They told my HR, but I had always liked the different programmes in the Polar. The heart health tests and so forth.I really didn't want to spend money on another Polar watch. The ones with the features were expensive and I hate the look of sports watches. I wouldn't wear it apart from exercising and it's just not my style. That said, I came across this product and it suits my needs 100%.The app is easy to use and it has all the features on the watch that I like. It connects to a polar website, which is less cool than it sounds. I don't use that very much (at all).Never mind that, the app is fully functional and occasionally updated. You can buy a few extra features on the app, which is an annoying concept, but it's only 12 pounds or so for all of them combined. These features allow for different pre-set regiments. I bought them all to try them, but I don't really use them apart from this real-time cardio v fat burning timer. I don't think you get that if you don't do the in-app purchase.It runs well without any extra costs and it does what it says it does. It keeps track of your HR.It seems to respond to my changes much quicker than the FitBit HR. It also broadcasts the rate to supported exercise machines. It's a strong broadcast as well, because when I'm on the elliptical the surrounding machines display my rate as well.That brings the question as to how would two in the same room perform? Would they get confused? The answer to that is no. I tried this with someone else and their H7 sensor. Mine was broadcasting to the surrounding machines, but the moment they got on a machine next to me, the machine displayed their rate and mine displayed mine. So, no problem if you've an exercise partner with the same kit.
