The performance and usability of this watch simply do not justify its price tag. 1. The HRM function isn't reliable. My $30 unbranded HRM maintains a better wireless connection to the chest strap. Occasionally the X6HR measures false heart rate spikes up to 190. Occasional drop outs or false spikes are not a problem for a simple HRM, but a real pain when you're using the X6HR to record over time, as it screws up heart rate statistics. 2. The buttons are too 'mushy'. It's hard to tell when a button has been properly pressed. 3. The software the comes with the watch is clunky and ugly. Overall, if you are looking at the X6HR, look at the Polar AXN500.
