Back in January, Scosche announced the new Rhythm+ 2.0 optical HR sensor - priced at $79. This would be the next iteration from their original Rhythm+ released way back in 2014 – arguably the optical HR sensor band that started the trend of optical HR armbands. The 2.0 edition broadcasts your heart rate over ANT+ & Bluetooth Smart, shows your zones on the app…and…well…that’s about it. But that’s ultimately all most people want a heart rate sensor for – and of course, doing so accurately.

From a consumer standpoint the Rhythm+ 2.0 edition only changes three main things from the original: It increases the battery life from 8 hours to 24 hours, it changes the button so it doesn’t accidentally get turned on very easily, and it has a better strap that’s not Velcro. Under the covers the unit also changes the sensor too, going with a much newer Valencell version than the original.

I’ve got a bit more than two months’ worth of data on the Scosche Rhythm+ 2.0, comparing it against many of the sensors you’re likely to be choosing from, including the Polar Verity Sense, Polar OH1 Plus, mioPOD, and a slate of chest straps. Plus watches and more. I’ve got plenty of data and also basic usage tidbits.
