Apparently this monitor has many great features...well I don't care if it can hand you a protein smoothie when you're done working out! If you can't read the display...it's useless.
I read about the display issues prior to purchasing---but to be honest, I thought those people complaining about the display were either whiners, or....old with bad vision. I am neither. When I took it out of the box, I thought that perhaps the protective plastic over the display was tinted...it was not.
Outside in bright sunlight it is passable, but inside the gym, and especially in a spinning class where the lights tend to be low...forget it! You have to keep reaching over to press the display light which is only on for a second.
Your effort should be spent on your workout, not trying to read your monitor. I am returning mine.
