can you use the band in the legs? maybe if could use it n the legs if you're doing arms, chest, back workouts and then switch back to the arm band to do legs workouts?
Great review! BTW, 9:57 what HRM apps are you using here?
I always like science based fact based YouTubers! Respect!

The primary disadvantage with the Apple watch is the product itself
Brilliant assessment! Thank you for being so thorough and so methodical.
Hi Rob I recently discover your channel and thanks for all the data and analysis you made, they are top hi level analysis and as engineers I LOVE it! Can I ask one think, GTR 4 ou TRex 2 are capable to sync with VeritySense? Because I just want good tuning readings, cycling readings and swimming readings, and VerySense I almost good as H10, but for me maybe more comfortable in the arm than in my chest. So I’ve decide to change my GTR 47 because GPS aren’t good for new one GTR 4 or maybe T-Rex 2, but I am just to make sure, if you have it to test, sync VerySense with one of those good and no so expensive smart watch’s.
Can you do a swimming heart rate video? There are not many out there that aren't 3 years old.
How about testing in cool weather? This spring when temperatures were about 40F I learned that my watch gave crazy numbers as I'd start a bicycle ride, and then after a while gave plausible numbers. That sent me to the internet to learn about the problems in cool weather. I'll probably get an arm band device, but it would be good to know if any of them are better than others in cold temperatures.
I have decided to buy this based on the evidence you gave me. Can you please do a video on the Polar chest strap and find out why most of us are getting burns from the chest and sweat rashes from the back. It's taken me over 4 months to treat this problem, so I've lost out on 4 months of Zwift.
I bought a Polar Verity Sense last week and used it yesterday for the 1st time with my Fitbit Inspire 3 (both at same time). Are you interested in the files for comparison of performance?
The graph @2:46 is genius ?
As the accuracy is very différent between cycling and weight training, maybe you could have included separated graphs for those 2 activities? We could have a confirmation of the good results on the bike/bad ones with the weights ?
I have a Polar OH1 and happy with that, but the battery life gets poorer and poorer so I consider buying a H9 strap.
Thanks again for this great review ?
Thank you very much for your scientific video!!! I would ask you to test Polar Verity Sense as sleep monitor with App Sleep as Android.
I'm thinking what I should buy. Apple Watch Ultra or Polar Verity Sense for sleep monitoring and analysis of stress and HRV 24/7. Polar Verity Sense is much cheaper and there is a function of round-the-clock stress analysis. If Polar Verity Sense is as good at monitoring sleep as the Apple Watch Ultra, then you should take Polar Verity Sense because it is much cheaper and you can charge it less often.

Is the Verity Sense the same exact size as the OH1? Can if fit in the OH1 strap?
Hi Rob, thank you for your review!
Could you tell me what are the app that you are using at 9:50?
Do you have any thoughts on why the 'wrist worn' Apple watch, which is subject to all the problems of all other wrist worn sensors, is yet able to achieve the accurate results of the H10? Is it superior sensors which cost a lot that makes the difference, or is it the algorithm that processes the signals from the sensors or is it the circuitry that it all runs on that makes lag time a non issue? What are they doing that other watch manufacturers are not doing?
Does Apple say?
It would be very interesting if you were to rerun the test for weight lifting doing dumbbell squats, bicep curls and chin ups. Use the H10 as a reference line but this time hook the two optical sensors to a head band at the temple to avoid arm movement interfering and/or to your waist band to pick up femoral artery activity. I have an OH1 arriving in a few days and am eager to compare it to my Garmin Fenix watch attaching the OH1 to a headband while doing a sprint routine on a treadmill.
When you're working on your arms, why not put the sensor on a leg?
does Verity Sense works well on tattoed skin?
hi Sir, can you do one video to introduce how to disassemble OH1? Mine battery is broken, although I bought a Verity, I don't know how to use it independently. OH1 can be used without mobile, while it seems Verity can't. If so, a little bit pity?
