Just like the original MIO Sport, simply apply your two fingers to MIO Sport Select, and not only do you get your heart rate, you see how hard your heart is working and how effective that exercise is at burning up calories... giving you a true sense of accomplishment. MIO Sport Select also comes with an interchangeable watch strap providing the choice to select the strap that suits your style.

MioSport Select Heart Rate Watch

Works reliably, is accurate and keeps good time. So far, so good. We'll see how long it lasts. Has been worth the purchase price thus far.

Heart Rate Watch

Fantastic. A group of has have purchased 7 of these watches. They are fantastic. It feels great not having a transmitter around my chest and still get my pulse and other information.

Works well for my walks

2008-02-17
I picked this up at Walmart a couple days ago. I had been reading the reviews on Amazon and decided that I needed to try some in person since different people had had different experiences with them working. I tried two at Walmart, this one and a cheaper model, by walking around the store at different paces and testing them as I walked. The cheaper one (also a Mio but I forget the exact model) only worked when I stopped moving. The Select worked every time. I am not going to be running so I cannot vouch for its usefulness for a runner, but as a person who is just going to use this for walking I think it will work fine. Way more convenient that a strap around your chest.

The fact that it can change bands is nice but not what sold me on it. It is a solidly built rubber watch. I am a big person so the band only fit on the last hole. There is room to add another hole yourself if you are so inclined. That would be my only complaint but it won't be a problem if you are more of a normal size. I have used it the last three days on my morning 2 mile walk and it has not given me any trouble. I like it.

A few weeks later and I still like it and use it every day.

Good watch for heart patients

2008-02-03
I bought this watch not because I'm a runner, but because I have heart disease. When my heart rate increases to a certain point, I know I have to sit down and rest a bit, and with this watch I can check my heartbeat instantly. The only negative, is that I also have an irregular heartbeat and the watch doesn't register the heartbeat if that's going on. But I can check again in a few seconds when it settles down and it works fine. This watch may save my life.

Mio monitor

The Mio is an okay heartrate monitor. It works most of the time, but can be temperamental. When it doesn't work right, it makes you wonder how accurate the readings are altogether.

Mio sport Heart rate watch

With rencent bypass surgery,My cardiac rehab staff said a heart rate watch would make easy for me check my heart rate. They said that MIO was the best for the price. It is always good to have them set it the first time with there Equipment. works great..

Very accurate

2008-06-05
I bought this for medical reasons for a recent rapid heart rate. Mine has gone up to 172 and in the description, this item is suppose to register up to 199. I checked this at a recent cardiologist appointment and it was a perfect match to there readings. It is accurate, quick and easy to use and I highly recommend it. I have had no problems except having to breath lightly on my finger tips sometimes to moisten them slightly, but that has been rare. I've had this monitor for almost a month. I wear and taking readings all day every day.

Excellent while it worked

2008-06-04
This product was great when it worked but unfortunately, it stopped working after a week and a half. After a week the watch settings went back to the default settings, after 3 days of this, I returned it.

I tried to exchange it but it is no longer sold by Amazon.

Large watch

2008-04-30
This watch is a bit larger than I expected and is a bit too large for my small wrist. I wish I had bought the women's version instead, but that is my fault. The watch itself is great and takes heart rate consistently. Functions are clearly labeled and easy to use. I use it to monitor my heart rate in the morning before I get up, it's very convenient!
