 nice heart rate monitorMay 01, 2009
By John
Let me start by saying that heart rate monitors are geeky. They are a great tool to use if you want to get more out of your workouts or if you like looking at real-time data. You can even do geeky stuff like going out for a run and forcing yourself to get to 400 calories before turning around or running for 40 minutes straight while staying within a predetermined heart rate zone while have alarms go off if you go under or over this zone. Cool? Sure. Geeky? Absolutely - but so what. If you want to take your running to the next level, this watch will act as a nice tool to help you get there.
I've had this watch for a week now and like it just fine. It looks great meaning that it is less geeky than other heart-rate-monitors on the market but it won't help you pick up girls at the club or anything like that. I used it on a few runs and it works just like it is supposed to. It is easy to read, easy to use, the chest strap is solid and it gives you the basics without overloading you with extras you don't care about (unless you are a major geek). Be aware, if you have never used a HRM before, the manual leaves a lot to be desired. It does a good job on showing you how to program the time, the user data and some of the other functions, however it provides virtually no info on how you would actually use these features or how you should set up your profile etc. Bottom line is if you are new to heart rate training you will need to read up on it or have someone explain some of the basics before you wind up getting a lot out of this watch. It is not overly complex or anything just needs a little explaining up front (max heart rate, resting heart rate, targeted heart rate etc.). Once you get this knowledge this somewhat stylish watch will provide you with lots of geeky data and hopefully some extra tools to help you get faster and stronger.

Works well but...Jun 17, 2011
By Tom
No issues. Works well, but won't send a signal that the treadmill in my club can read so I still have to hold the rails to get a heart rate. Disappointing. Apparently the club equipment will only work with a Polar heart monitor.

 Poor excuse for a Runner's WatchMay 18, 2008
By AuburnMan81
Got the N5 for a birthday present. Never could get the heart rate monitor to work. Operation Guide refences wetting two electrodes but none are visible. Ran three miles and worked up a good sweat and still no heart rate. Instead use the Chronograph like my IronMan Timex. However - NO WAY TO READ BACK YOUR SPLIT TIMES! Whaaa?? NewBalance website has a flaw and no way to get to the N5 description directly. Have to go to the store so no additional information is available. It would be nice to have some background on how to effectively use all of the features. The Operation Guide only shows you how to push buttons. On the positive side, nice big characters - easy to read while running. That is about all....
