I agree with your determination that they are either giving correct heart rate measurements OR giving simultaneous incorrect data. I would, however, love to see the chest strap data added to these comparisons. Great video. Thanks!

So true... Without chest strap data, this review is missing a lot of important points.

Title should be "Is Wrist HRM accurate on steady running?". Running is likely the easiest sports activity for wrist HRMs to be accurate at. If your activity includes any working out with your hands these wrist HRMs tend to lose accuracy dramatically. Chest strap is still the king. It works well in almost any activity.

Yeah I don't see much of a difference between my chest hr data and my garmins or Polar data either. So much so I don't hardly ever wear the chest hr monitor anymore.

without an accurate equipment for comparison you can never know how accurate the watches are.

running is easy to measure . it's consistent. the part that fails is when doing annerobic. they don't pick up weight training changes so well

Most are accurate enough for running, walking, cycling, swimming or most things where the heart rate is reasonably constant or changes steadily. Try any of them for weights or HIIT or any other kind of interval training and they are not accurate enough to be helpful.

Of a sample of 3, including my instinct and 2 Fenix 6 watches, I can tell you that the Garmin heart rate monitors don't work. They are often 50 PBPM too high, IF they are working at all. The other functions work very well, but if it's a heart rate monitor you require, try a chest band or another brand of smart watch.

All of my Garmin watches have mad days where the heart rate is either way too high or too low! Ended up just not wearing one, more accurate!

Was looking for a video that compared the heart rate sensors. Amazfit is supposed to have a new PPG sensor, but I appreciate you comparing the most popular watches. Thanks

Yeah, the new Amazfit watches have excellent heart rate sensors. It really doesn’t matter which watch I use (GTR, GTS, Stratos 3, etc...), because all of the new Amazfit watches have excellent heart rate sensors.

@@donavonhornbeck There's rumors that a the GTS 2 should be announced soon since we're approaching the anniversary for the first one. Would you recommend waiting? Would hate to get a GTS only for a new one to come out. That's what I leaning towards getting the Bip S since it has an improved HR sensor as well

I haven't tried Apple Watch but I had a Samsung Gear S3 Frontier and the spiking at the beginning of the run and sometimes during a run was very annoying. I eventually switched to a Garmin and never looked back. I'll probably change once the battery starts to show signs of degradation.

The Apple Watch spike only happens at the beginning of a run and corrects itself very quickly, but I’ve not had that same experience with Samsung. I can go for one run where it’s fine the whole time, and then the next run it’s stuck on one rate the whole run. I will give Samsung another try starting tomorrow with the Galaxy Watch 3. Hopefully it’s improved.

Good point, I should have included that in this video. Personally I wear the watches just below my wrist and as tight as is comfortable. My wife has an Apple Watch as well, and her heart rate data is never correct because she wears it very loosely.

It depends on the activity also, right? Most OHRs are fine for running, but struggle with strength or wrist based activities. For those, I would use an external monitor
