Rank #5 in Best Heart Rate Monitors 2026: 10 Ranked, Three Spec Sheets Wrong
COOSPO H6 Heart Rate Monitor Chest Strap
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The COOSPO H6 is a chest strap heart rate monitor: a sensor pod that clips onto a soft strap and sends your heart rate over Bluetooth 4.0 or ANT+ to a phone, tablet, sports watch, bike computer or gym machine. It comes fifth in our guide, priced at £21.68, rated 4.2 out of 5 from 8,777 ratings, and ranked 3 in Amazon's Heart Rate Monitors category.
The spec table is where the H6 is worth reading closely. Its Display Size is listed as 36 inches — exactly the top of the 25–36 inch strap adjustment range given on the same sheet, on a device whose stated box contents are a heart rate sensor, a soft chest strap and a user manual, and whose bullet points never mention a screen. Its Sensor Type is given as "Wearable", which describes how you wear it rather than what is inside it. The rating breakdown supplied adds to 100 entries while the listing reports 8,777 ratings, so the 63 five-star and 11 one-star figures read as shares rather than counts. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing for this product, not from any testing we carried out.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Originally I was looking at the Polar H10, but then I discovered this model. It received good feedback on review websites and cost less than one third the price of the Polar so I bought it. I have paired it with the Polar Beat 'app' and it works great. The strap is comfy enough and although it's not as thin as other monitors, you forget you're wearing it after a while. Save yourself £50 over the Polar and get this one, you won't be disappointed.”
Verified purchase“Worked flawlessly over 2,500 miles / 140 hours of mostly winter riding, paired with an ancient Garmin Edge 500 cycle computer. Also connects well to my mobile phone and Strava app. Have not yet had to replace the battery. Quite impressed for the price, I just wish they'd put a few years' warranty period on it for peace of mind.”
