I know the Fitbit Charge HR is popular but its too rich for my blood. Any other options?

    How much are you willing to spend? Do you want one that goes on your wrist or around your chest? One thats a clock too or just heart rate monitor?

      Just a heart rate monitor that's accessible immediately. I was looking at the new MiBand but I don't think I can check my heart rate at any time. I don't mind how its attached as long as I can read my heart rate at that instant (either off the device or my phone). Budget wise I'd like to spend <$60

    You can buy a no brand, like the Aldi one. IMO, these things end up costing more when you buy the cheapo, if you get my drift.

    I use the wahoo monitor and connect it to my Iphone. They were around $60

    How about just a plain bluetooth HR strap and monitor it with your phone with an app like Runkeeper?
    I picked up one from Aldi for $19 (after special buy day) a while ago that does the job.
    Aldi also does a watch with HR strap (I have seen for $12 again after special buy day) that is good for monitoring during a run.

    The fitbit charge HR is $129 at telstra shops if you think it's worth the money. Shows heart rate instantly as well as time, steps, distance, calories and stairs.
