Sense HR vs Ionic HR

[Ga1ileo]

Hi, I switched from an Ionic to a Sense a few months ago and am wondering about the accuracy of the HR function.  When I used to go on a walk using my Ionic my HR alwaways averaged about 102-104 with high point of about 120.  Doing the exact same walks with the Sense my average HR is about 95 and rarely does it ever go above 100 and usually no higher than 105.  So I don’t which was the more accurate reading the Ionic or the Sense?

has anyone had similar experiences?

The Ionic and original Versa's were quite accurate.

The Sense is only accurate when not moving for a minute or so.

During movement it can be quite erratic.

Some people complain of over reading and other under reading on the Sense.
