Review Summary
2018-07-17T10:20:15
So far I am enjoying this product a lot, more than my previous M400. I do like not having to wear the heart rate sensor around my chest. I have found that the M430 is not quite as accurate as the M400 with a chest HR monitor, but close enough to monitor my workouts. It's much better for swim workouts than before, although I whish it had some kind of lap counter feature. Overall I am very pleased with it.
