"I would NOT recommend this model to anyone. Except if they can get a great deal and know they will ONLY use it in a gym or in daytime. My experience with the Polar Accurex is excellent, I must have picked the wrong product for my current needs."TrkHilo2k

Value

Its missing some necessary features for multisport athletes, esepcially a night-light. Not an easy to use piece.

(5)

Appearance

Looks pretty hot, which is why I bought it.

Customer Service

I don't know yet but I hear (in blogs after I made the purchase) that Polar Customer Service is the worst. Will find out soon.

Performance

Unit has excellent HR monitoring efficiancy, however, as a bike computer it sucks.

Strengths

Great HR monitoring accuracy. I have a 10 yr old model that still works like a charm. HRM Accuracy is the only good onthis unit. It looks cool and modern.

Weakness

Instructions are not thorough, can't figureout how to measure time at the different zones, to make matters worse, I just discovered this unit has NO NIGHT LIGHT!!!
This must be an older model (or not available in US) because even the polarusa.com site does not show it.
