Graphical target zone indicator
This feature points out graphically on the display the zone you are in during a training session helping you to stay on the desired intensity zone.Polar OwnCal® – calorie expenditure with altimeter calibration
Polar OwnCal calculates the number of kilocalories expended during training. This feature allows you to follow the kilocalories expended during one training session and cumulative kilocalories expended during several training sessions. Some Polar products also estimate the fat-burning percentage (fat% on display), that is, kilocalories expended from fat during a workout which is expressed as a percentage of the total kilocalories burned.Polar OwnCode® (5 kHz ) – coded transmission
Coded heart rate transmission automatically locks in a code to transmit your heart rate to the training computer. The training computer picks up your heart rate from your transmitter only. Coding significantly reduces interference from other training computers. The 2.4 GHz W.I.N.D transmission is disturbance-free from other electronic devices.Zonepointer
ZonePointer is a visible and moving symbol on the training computer display indicating whether you are inside the pre-set target zone. This feature helps you to reach the desired intensity/pace/speed/cadence targets.Maximum Heart Rate
The highest number of heart beats per minute (bpm) during maximum physical exertion. For a rough estimate of your maximum heart rate, subtract your age from 220. HRmax is a useful tool for determining the intensity of training as intensity zones can be defined using HRmax. Some Polar products define maximum heart rate during the Polar Fitness Test, see also HRmax (Polar Fitness Test -based).

Good budget model,

This review is from: Polar F4F Heart Rate Monitor (Sports)
This is my 4th Polar HRM and I have always found the Polar range to be good value and the best in the market for similar products.
My old HRM needed replacing and I decided to downsize to a model with less features than previous. This is a great price point and the watch is more petite, more of a ladies sized watch, than other Polar models. The deisgn is light weight and comfortable to wear. Features wise now I am used to it I quite like seeing what percentage of my maximal HR I am working to, rather than seeing the actual figures. This might not suit some people, but having worked extensively on HR and intensity levels I am aware enough of where my boundaries lie and can gauge fairly accurately whereabouts I am during training. The summary features work well and tell you calories, average and maximal HR, total time within training zone, time etc. The display is clear to read and the functions are easy to use and follow. Definitely worth buying if you are wanting a HRM to Polars usual high standard, but either want a smaller range of functions, or perhaps a good starting point if you are new to training with HRM.A good bargain buy.

A shame about the battery,

This review is from: Polar F4F Heart Rate Monitor (Sports)
Someone bought me this heart rate monitor a couple of years ago as a gift. It is really good, easy to use and enough data to support a moderate to high fitness level. I used it in the gym and for road running and found it a very helpfull training tool. In fact I hate training without one now. Only problem is the battery in the monitor ran out after about 18 months, i was using it 4 to 6 times a week. I then found I had to send it off to have the battery replaced which is not only time consuming but also expensive. So I am now put off buying this brand again, however much I enjoyed the equipment. There are other brands out there that can deliver the same quality monitors without the inconvenience of not being able to get the battery changed yourself.

Polar F4,

This review is from: Polar F4F Heart Rate Monitor (Sports)
Good HRM, easy to use. The only draw back is when the battery runs out (after 2 years use 3/4 times a week)it didn't work properly even though it was sent back to manufacturer. Now I have to buy a replacement..
