Ease of installation

Simple to use right out of the package- connected the transmitter to the strap, turned on Runtastic and it paired immediately. Did install the Polar App for iPhone because I needed the zones while riding on the trainer.

Quality of Construction

The strap seems to be stretching a bit at the end where it meets the loop closure

Fit

Nice, adjustable strap

Comfort

The new strap is so much more comfortable than the older versions. It adjusts to fit and does not irritate my skin during workouts

Appearance

it's a basic black strap with black transmitter

Customer Service

They are good at honoring their service agreement but difficult to reach on the phone

Performance

After purchasing a different HRM from polar that did give me erratic spikes in my heart rate, I sold that one on eBay and purchased this one, so far no crazy spikes and accurate HRM measurements.

Strengths

transmits to my iPhone

Weakness

does not work when swimming
