OFweek Wearable Device Network News November 3, 2016, Huawei in Munich, Germany in addition to everyone brought the long-awaited HUAWEI Mate 9, while also bringing a $ 130 (about 895 yuan) campaign Watch Huawei Fit with fitness tracking, sleep monitoring and heart rate monitoring. So, what is the actual hand experience? Let's experience it with Xiaobian.
Design
The design is simple and elegant and attractive. The 18mm strap, which weighs only 35g, is very light and does not feel uncomfortable even if it is worn all day. There are several color straps to choose from. Huawei Fit's 1.4-inch aluminum round case looks more stylish, simple and natural menu screen makes people at a glance.
Some dullness occurs when you interact with the screen. Although Huawei's recent software updates have improved the speed of response, there will still be some problems. For example, it may seem a bit tedious that you try to switch data screens or try to end exercise tracking activities.
Huawei Fit's dial supports IP68/5 ATM waterproof, so you can wear it to go swimming.
Activity tracking
In fitness tracking, don't expect any special features. Equipped with a 3-axis accelerometer, 6-axis gyro tester and a motion sensor to track the number of steps, measure distances and assess calorie burning. Unfortunately, when compared with other professional measuring instruments, the data error is a bit large.
These motion sensors can also be used for sleep monitoring. Using the Withings Aura and the TomTom Spark 3's automatic sleep tracker will make the data more accurate, but it will only provide limited data.
What's even more disappointing is the movement tracking. Sport tracking is available in running, cycling, walking and swimming pooling modes, but it is mainly used for running tracking. Huawei Fit has no built-in GPS, so it can only rely on other motion sensors or mobile phones to record data. This is indeed a problem. When compared to several other sports watches with built-in TomTom Spark 3 GPS, the speed difference is 2-3 miles, and the data the watch can see is very limited.
Heart rate tracking
Huawei Fit uses an optical heart rate sensor to continuously record the heart rate of the human body during exercise. When it is in use, it begins to record motion by sliding the finger. Double-clicking the screen starts recording the running. From a technical point of view, there has not been much change. Still based on heart rate sensors, blood volume and heart rate data are measured through the skin. Although Huawei does not do very well, at least heart rate data is reliable.
You can also provide BPM readings in real time through the heart rate sensor while you are tracking. When comparing it to the Polar H7 heart rate chest strap, it was very pleasant to find that it performed very well, even with high intensity training. At the same time you can also view the heart rate chart during training.
Notice
Huawei Fit can receive notifications. You can receive notifications from native APP as well as third-party applications such as Instagram, WhatsApp and Facebook. Although this feature is popular, it is a bit wasteful to display them on the watch dial.
This small display and large borders means that only a very small space is available for displaying notifications. Unless it's a very simple update notification, you'll have to scroll through the screen to see the message. It's better to just hold the phone and see the message.
App
When you need to view data, adjust watch settings, and even plan workouts, you need to use the Huawei Wear app iOS and Android apps. Whether it is a platform or an interface, it looks great. The home screen is used to display the number of steps, motion tracking, heart rate information, and sleep tracking data.
There is a problem with this app, and data synchronization is confusing. A similar problem has been encountered many times when synchronizing smartwatch data into an APP. Even after more than one month of use, APP still cannot save a large amount of training data. This will make the original data buried and more difficult to locate accurately.
Although some small regrets, there are still some very favorite features. Can support some very rare third-party applications such as Jawbone, MyFitnessPal and Google Fit. According to their own needs, develop sports training programs.
Lifetime
Another few advantages are battery life. The 80 mAh battery requires only 2 hours from 0% to 100%, and can provide up to 6 days of battery life after full charge.
to sum up
Huawei Fit is affordable and comfortable to wear. But if you ask me if I should buy a Fitbit, Withings or Garmin fitness tracker at the same price, my answer is no. Because of Huawei's amazing heart rate tracking performance, Super Life is one of the reasons why you choose Huawei Fit.
Advantages: comfortable to wear, amazing heart rate tracking performance, super life
Inadequate: slow screen interaction, inaccurate distance tracking, continuous synchronization problems
