Hi all,

I am looking at the ft4 but when looking on amazon tonight I found a ft7 for $7 more, is it worth the extra money for the ft7?
When are the diffences between the two and does the ft7 come with the real large chest strap, as I am a big guy.

Thanks for any info.

    Polar FT4 and FT7.. lets break it down.

    FT4:
    Only stores 10 workouts
    Doesn't tell you what "zone" your in.. IE Fat burning Vs Fitness
    Does not let you upload to Polar personal trainer via the optional flow link attachment
    Only comes in two colors

    FT7:
    Stores 99 workouts
    Tells you zones
    Does let you upload to Polar Personal Trainer via optional flow link attachment(it's 50 dollars extra)
    Comes in 4 color combos

    As far as the chest strap goes, the strap that comes with them I want to say is medium/xl. It's made of cloth and elastic, and it's adjustable so it will stretch pretty far.

    If you look on heartratemonitorsusa.com, they let you pick a chest strap size to go with your Polar HRM.
