5.0 out of 5 stars After recall an excellent multifunction HRM
The first X6HRM I purchased was very flaky, with the screen blanking out after a button was pushed. I was about to return it, but found out there was a recall. The new unit functions flawlessly and is great if you have regular workouts you do. With altimeter, HRM and timer saving data you can download workout profiles to your PC (average software but functional) and...

2.0 out of 5 stars Just not up to scratch
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...

2.0 out of 5 stars Just not up to scratch, June 5, 2007
This review is from: Suunto X6HR Heart Rate Wrist-Top Computer Watch with Altimeter, Barometer, and Compass (Apparel)
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars After recall an excellent multifunction HRM, August 29, 2005
The first X6HRM I purchased was very flaky, with the screen blanking out after a button was pushed. I was about to return it, but found out there was a recall. The new unit functions flawlessly and is great if you have regular workouts you do. With altimeter, HRM and timer saving data you can download workout profiles to your PC (average software but functional) and overlay curves to check progress during the season or year-to-year.

The only minor complaint is that the unit sucks down batteries. They're easy to replace though, so buy a few spares.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased!, June 15, 2011
This review is from: Suunto X6HR Heart Rate Wrist-Top Computer Watch with Altimeter, Barometer, and Compass (Apparel)
Was very pleased with how many functions this watch has, how well made, comfortable (not near as big and thick as other Suunto), and how easy it is to transfer the data into my PC. Software is very intuitive as well.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is not Suunto X6HRM, March 3, 2008
This review is from: Suunto X6HR Heart Rate Wrist-Top Computer Watch with Altimeter, Barometer, and Compass (Apparel)
Description appears to be Suunto X6HRM (M is for Metal), but the item shipped is in fact Suunto X6HR. I sent it back asking for the good item (which cost me 80, more than 100$) and I had a refund.

Thanks a lot it cost me a lot for ... nothing.

I will surely order again.
