    Hmmm. I just bought the Polar H10 for $83. Haven't opened it yet, though. I'm using a Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Solar. Activity-wise, mostly running and hiking.

    Thoughts on the Garmin HRM-Pro versus the Polar H10?

    Thanks!

    The HRM-Pro Plus is only $96.88 at Amazon as well. Probably worth the extra $7 IMO.

    I would go with the pro if you can return it easily. I have the H10 because I didn't want to spend the extra money, it works great. With the pro you get a few more data fields and swimming. While I can swim with the H10, I don't think there is a good way to add that HR data to my swimming activity, if that make sense

    H10 is slightly more accurate for heart rate (HR) measurement and is a better choice if you intend to measure heart rate variability (HRV) and need as accurate readings as possible. For regular exercises (running/cycling/swimming), very unlikely you'll see a difference between the two. HRM-Pro has additional features that are Garmin specific (power, cadence, etc). I've used an HRM-Run for the past few years (similar but has ANT+ connection only vs HRM-PRO having both ANT+ & Bluetooth). After having a few years of this extra Garmin data, I've never really found a use for it so I stopped caring about collecting it and I've since switched to the H10.

    I actually recently bought both of these chest straps recently and decided to return the HRM-Pro in favor of H10 because of the lower accuracy/greater artifacts with the Garmin unit. (which was something I was not aware of until recently or I would have swapped sooner).

    Not really a good comparison as they cite the older Garmin HR Sensor with Soft Strap

    Ohh, nice timing, I was just looking into these. I'm on the edge trying to decide if this is worth it for me or not - do those of you who use a chest strap find value in it? I started digging because my current tool for monitoring HR (Forerunner 235) doesn't work for my rowing workouts no matter where or how tight I put it. It consistently reads probably half of my actual HR during the workout. I'm guessing this is more accurate for running, but I've never used one so I'm not sure if I need that extra accuracy or not.

    I'm hesitant to buy one just for rowing because I hate rowing. I only do it because I don't want to run in the current 4* weather and bought a rower for winter workouts because of the "more balanced" upper/lower body workout. Probably should have just gotten a treadmill, because I just want to run.

    That's why I cited my own data measurements. Unfortunately I could not find any direct comparison studies between the other straps. I went from HRM-dual years ago to HRM-Run & HRM-Tri (for the past 3-4 yrs or so). In the past 6 months or so I started tracking my HRV and noticed the artifact rate for Garmin was around 5-10%. I initially thought this was due to the ANT+ connection used by HRM-Run which led me to get the HRM-Pro strap in December as it has a BLE connection. Unfortunately, the artifact rate was the same even with bluetooth so my assumption of ANT+ vs BLE was wrong. I then tried the H10 and found it to be more accurate at 1-2%. It's too bad because I wanted the other Garmin metrics but the tradeoff wasn't worth it to me. For most people this accuracy is likely overkill and irrelevant.

    A chest strap is absolutely valuable if you care about heart rate training. Optical sensors on watches are hit or miss and can be highly inaccurate in higher intensity workouts (great for sleep tracking though). I got a rower machine during covid. I put 45 minutes on it and sold it. Got a treadmill instead and so far that has lasted over a year.
