This review is for the second Biostrap I've purchased. The first was stolen and the friendly staff at Biostrap helped me replace it. In both cases, I opted for the less expensive version. As a cyclist, I didn't really see the benefit of the shoe pod, since I calculate my physical exertion via a power meter and heart rate monitor. So, the purpose of the Biostrap was to quantify my sleep quality and recover, primarily with resting heart rate and to some degree heart rate variability. The recover score and sleep score are great summaries of this data. The charging pad that comes with the first Biostrap was plastic and cheap-looking, while the second was slick (aluminum-like and glass). Interestingly though, it didn't work. So, I reverted to using the cheap version, which is very finicky in terms of position and activity the recharging function. On several occasions I came back to a dead battery... make sure the light turns blue before you walk away. Summary, the charging needs to be fixed. The first Biostrap never had a problem syncing to the app on my phone... very reliable. The second Biostrap has been a nightmare and constantly loses connection to the phone and is a struggle to reconnect. I have to say... If I had this same experience with the first Biostrap, I would not have bothered replacing it. I would have opted for the Whoop despite the subscription model. In short, the customer service was very helpful... top marks. I like that there isn't a subscription model and the sleep analysis works well as long as I can keep it synced with the app and get the recharging to work. Then again, maybe I just got a lemon.

The battery life compared to other types of products in this category is terrible. I have not gotten more than about 36 hours life between charges. I've had the unit on the charger for the past 12 plus hours and I'm now 1% charged. So if you don't get the unit in the exact spot on the charger, that doesn't work well either. Not really happy with this since I've only been wearing it for less than two months.

The hardware on this device doesn’t compete with similar devices in the market. The app and data is pretty great, but there’s some pain points with this device... Battery life is too short. The device sits too high on the wrist and catches on clothing easily. The cable for the charger is way too short and the charger base itself is light and flimsy. When charging, it’s easy for the device to fall off or not stay in the perfect position to hold a charge.

Bought this for my son who needs to be able to see his pulse oxygen levels frequently but who didnt want to have to carry around an obvious medical device. He loves it! The only thing he has said is that he hope the company develops other straps that are not silicone as it irritates his skin a bit. Check out the pic of him sporting proudly his Biostrap!

It was great while it worked. The problem was that after about 5 weeks, it just stopped working. The charger still had a working indicator light, so I assume it still functions. The Biostrap unit appears to have died. If I had paid $20 or so for it, I would not have been too disappointed, but this was $175, so I expected it to last at least a few years.
