The smart watch market is a new market that has not been saturated, and it is also a competitive place that has not yet produced the "strongest". It is full of unknown possibilities which is better. Since MOTO 360 pioneered the round dial smart watch, the smart watch has never been "square" and deformed, but there are still problems such as black edges at the bottom and large power consumption.

Tuman Technology, a company that has developed ink screen watches in the early stage, has received a good response in the market. A year later, Tuman launched the third generation watch again, and made its debut in the independently developed operating system called Tomos. This article evaluates the protagonist: Tuman T-Ripple smart watch.

In terms of configuration, it can be said that the Tumen T-Ripple watch is a great effort. The watch uses a 1.39-inch 400 * 400 pixel AMOLED display, dual core processor+ultra low power sensor HUB, 512MB operating memory, 4GB body memory, IP67 waterproof, built-in 310mAh battery, gyroscope, gravity sensor, electronic compass, heart rate, microphone, speaker and other sensors, support phone calls and navigation, and can replace the strap by itself to configure a flagship watch.

The colors of the Tuman T-Ripple watch are black and silver, and the design is positioned as a commercial sports type, and compatible with the Android Apple system. At present, the watchband is made of leather and stainless steel. The package of the T-Ripple watch is a long strip design, printed with the full body rendering of T-Ripple.

The business oriented T-Ripple watch is mainly reflected in three aspects: first, in terms of the overall shape, the three generations of Tumen use the round dial design, and the spray paint on all parts of the body remains the same. The crown design of the traditional watch is followed, which restores the original appearance of the traditional business watch as much as possible in the shape; Second, in terms of endurance, Tuman has chosen to independently develop the operating system, so as to ensure the endurance as much as possible. The assurance of the non software installable scheme proves the long-term endurance of the three generations of Tuman. The combination of styling and endurance highlights the commercial selling points of T-Ripple.

The product accessories are the same as most smart watches. The Tumen T-Ripple has a host * 1 strap * 1 data cable * 1 charging seat * 1 function manual * 1 warranty card * 1 factory film * 2.

Appearance details

In terms of appearance details, the display of the Tuman T-Ripple is embedded in the body and surrounded by a ring of black metal. If the watch hits a hard object, the first contact is the ring of metal. The screen is protected to avoid scratches. Compared with the bracelet with a parallel screen on the right, the screen embedded design of the Tuman T-Ripple watch has greatly improved its protection.

This meticulously polished and angular metal ring produces a round polish in the light, highlighting the exquisite process design. Wearing a slightly "shiny" watch in and out of public places also echoes the positioning of business watches.

Since the M4 adopts "austenitic 304 stainless steel" as the frame of the fuselage, how many people suddenly realize that stainless steel is also graded? The body of the Tuman T-Ripple watch is made of 316L stainless steel, which is mainly used in the food industry, surgical equipment, coastal equipment, etc. The 316L watch is higher than 304, with better corrosion resistance but higher price. The 316L stainless steel material can withstand the wind and the sun.

The body design pays attention to the symmetry of the upper and lower parts, and the symmetry of the middle thin upper and lower radians makes the style of the Tumen T-Ripple more classic and traditional than many smart watches on the market. It has to be mentioned that the black T-Ripple is not as fashionable and versatile as the silver version. Men and women can use the silver version, and the black version is more stable for men.

The Touman T-Ripple crown is at two o'clock on the body. The crown can be twisted and pressed. At the same time, it is the only place where the brand logo is engraved on the radium. It feels very crisp and comfortable. There is no looseness and collapse like the power button of a mobile phone. Instead of centering, it chooses a 60 degree position, which makes the interactive experience go to a higher level. The crown only uses "pressing" to switch on and restart the machine, "Twist" has no corresponding function, and the opening above the crown is the body microphone.

At the side of the Tuman T-Ripple watch, we found an obvious "three-stage design": metal guard ring+stainless steel body+metal back, and 12.8mm body thickness. The whole watch has reached the beauty of the hand both in design and wearing. As a domestic watch, it is no less than the technological level of international first-class brands.

Seen from the back of the Tuman T-Ripple watch, it is obvious that the flexible cutting process here, the surface close to the hand is only a small area, which ensures a sense of wear, but also brings a thinner body, which is consistent with most smart watches in layout: covering speakers, optical heart rate sensors, charging contacts and a row of English, The metal material on the back prevents the accumulation of hand sweat.

The charging mode is adsorption, and the data line interface uses the Micro USB interface. Although the Type-C interface, which is currently popular on mobile phones, is not used, it does not affect its charging speed. The author will verify this with the data on charging of the Tuman T-Ripple.

Tomoon watchband

The watchband has always been a necessity for watches, but it is the first time to see the practice of giving a special meaning to the watchband. There is a line of numbers "384401" on each Tuman T-Ripple watchband. This line of numbers is not the watchband identification code, but represents the distance between the earth and the moon, echoing the Tuman Tomoon brand.

The Tumen T-Ripple watchband uses retro style needle grain leather with a total of 10 openings. The leather watchband is soft and comfortable, which is not easy to cause allergic reactions for most people, but it will also produce wrinkles after long use. Fortunately, the design of the detachable watchband can solve the problem of wrinkles by replacing it with a new one. And recently, a stainless steel watchband will be launched.

The design of the watch strap can rotate freely and will not easily damage the connection of the watch strap. The type of watch buckle is a watch pin buckle, which is one of the most common watch buckles that can be worn by one hand.

Screen performance

T-Ripple watch has no black edge at the bottom. Its screen resolution is 400 * 400, which is higher than MOTO 360 II and Apple watch. The 1.39-inch 286PPI is close to the feature of "retinal screen". The display is exquisite without obvious graininess. In addition to the "bright color" feature of AMOLED screen, the color saturation and delicacy are no less than the display technology on smart phones, The display on the screen is quite excellent, with the strength of the flagship watch.

It is particularly important to pay attention to the visual angle and light leakage when the display technology of mobile phones is added to the limited screen range. The display content of T-Ripple watch can be easily seen from four angles. The display screen of T-Ripple watch does not leak or overflow when viewed from the front in a black environment, which conforms to the characteristics of AMOLED display screen.

Waterproof capacity

How to solve the problem that watches are easy to touch water? The Tumen T-Ripple watch adopts IP67 in terms of waterproof grade. There is no need to worry about touching the body when washing hands or raining in daily life, because the body metal is mostly made of stainless steel, which can prevent water and rust at the same time. The addition of IP67 waterproof makes the daily experience of T-Ripple watch basically perfect.

System scheme

While the smart watch has the appearance and configuration, the most noteworthy thing is the operating system. In terms of the system, Tuman T-Ripple uses self-developed Tomos, such as replacing the dial, checking the weather, calendar, alarm clock, and a series of necessary functions are added. Six scenarios are added to the system to meet the functional requirements, and the idea of always on is proposed The power supply scheme makes the T-Ripple watch experience perfection and continuous power saving.

The biggest difference between a smart watch and a traditional watch is "changing the dial". Changing the dial is not only a mood adjustment but also a pursuit of quality. The dial of the Tuman T-Ripple watch is pre installed with "19 types of dials", covering business, simplicity, retro, sports, text, etc., which is a style that favors the adult world. The dial design is very rich: for example, some dials will change day and night with time, dials with Arabic numerals and Roman numerals, dials with feminine purple charm, classic acme, etc, Custom wallpaper added to the last dial.

T-Ripple's dials are not limited to these "19 styles". New types of dials will be added under the regular update of watch firmware. At present, Tuman Technology and UI China have cooperated to carry out a dial design contest. Indeed, many beautiful T-Ripple dials have been seen on the website, and will be promoted to use the outstanding works of masters in the future.

How can a watch give play to the intelligent experience? Tuman's approach is to customize six scenarios for users: "health scenario, entertainment scenario, financial scenario, work scenario, expression scenario, and going out scenario". All scenarios display "current time" at the top to meet the user needs of watches. Health scene: based on the common "step counting and long sitting reminder", the function of "self measuring heart rate" is added. With the optical heart rate sensor on the back, the user's specific heart rate can be measured, and their own body movement can be mastered in real time.

The significance of the existence of smart watches can be summarized as "simplifying the complexity and using less mobile phones": the "entertainment scenes and financial scenes" of the Tuman Tomos operating system fully realize this significance. Entertainment scene: The main function is to remotely control the mobile phone to play music. The scene provides a sharing button that can be synchronized to the APP expression circle, eliminating the inconvenience of using a smart watch and convenient experience between the touch.

In the crowded subway and bus, it is quite difficult to spare two hands to see the real-time changes of the stock market, so it is necessary to solve the similar "inconvenient" situation. In order to be closer to business and convenience, Tuman Tomos specially added "financial scene" to the system, and cooperated with "Guotai Jun'an" to launch financial management for users who use Tuman on a regular basis, The top of the interface depends on the time display. It is correct to check the stock index while checking the time and understanding the financial products.

At the same time, T-Ripple watch is equipped with a microphone, which creates a "working scene" mode in scene selection. In short, this scene is: the user selects the date+the system collects the recording, so as to achieve the role of "memo", T-Ripple watch's memo function is more convenient than ordinary mobile phone software. There is not too much complex content or advertising in the working scene of Tomos. It is purely set for "memo". Efficient, convenient and practical is the advantage of Tomos system.

When it comes to the "expression scene" of the Tomos system, we should mention that the mobile app supporting T-Ripple watches is called "expression". In this mobile app, T-Ripple watches can be operated and upgraded. Of course, the social function is not ignored. The "expression circle" in the app is like the circle of friends, which can send out some small things in life.

The "expression scene" in the watch is connected to the APP social field. Users can talk with their friends in the APP through the T-Ripple watch. Next, they can see the new "expression circle" messages sent by Turkish users. Sometimes this scene is not used very frequently, but it is really Turkish technology to improve the performance required by users as much as possible.

When I first used the "out scene" of the Tomos system, I was a little surprised because my mobile phone did not have the "navigation software" pre installed. After clicking a movie theater located by Tuman Tomos, my mobile phone really turned on voice navigation. The difference between "Out Scene" and general navigation software is that it directly selects the nearby "Cinema, Food and Entertainment" venues, covering a comprehensive range of venues, and has experienced the special use of smart watches.

Functional details

"Can make phone calls, can send text messages", in this familiar old saying, it is a metaphor for the functional details of Tomos. The Turkish T-Ripple watch can directly dial and answer the phone, and I like the watch to answer the phone, so it is very convenient to hear new calls, plus the waterproof performance, you can continue to answer when taking a bath, and do not need to wipe the screen sweat, which is very convenient and practical!

The T-Ripple watch can also reply to SMS, but unfortunately, it can't input text, and can only choose a few words to reply to SMS. Fortunately, these words all express the meaning of "busy at the moment". The function of SMS reply is more used in busy times.

Then when QQ and WeChat hang up in the background for a long time, what they are waiting for is a "message prompt". The Tuman Tomos system uses the "vibration and sound" method to display new message content on the screen, so that the users who wear it will not miss important message reminders.

In the era of intelligent interaction, many people rely on such daily functions as "weather, calendar, computer, recorder", but they cannot take out their mobile phones at work or in class. The setting scheme of the Tomos system is to organize these necessary daily functions on a large page, which is like a fully functional Turkish watch.

Endurance test

T-Ripple watch equipped with: 310mAh battery capacity

The Tuman T-Ripple watch is the first device in China that has joined the XBurst CPU core. The XBurst CPU is an embedded microprocessor innovated and developed by Junzheng, which is characterized by high performance improvement, low power consumption and power saving. With the Tomos operating system exclusively developed by Tuman, it has brought a power saving capability that is better than that of ordinary smart watches. Next, the data will be measured.

Test environment: test the charging speed of 0-100% of the power after the watch has consumed all the power

The test results in the figure (1A charging head) show that the charging time period of 0-100% of the power of the T-Ripple watch is about 80 minutes, in which the charge is 10% in 10 minutes, 40% in 50 minutes, 70% in 60 minutes, and finally full of all the power in 83 minutes. The charging speed is quite fast and not too slow.

Test environment: 7 hours standby power consumption under 100% power, test standby capacity

In the end, a smart watch can only be "convenient" in real sense if it has good endurance, so the standby power consumption is also a endurance test for system optimization. Seven hours in the test environment is almost the time to sleep, After the author's 7-hour standby test, the T-Ripple watch draws the following conclusions: 2% of the power is consumed in one hour of standby, 3% in three hours of standby, and 4% in seven hours of standby; From this point of view, the T-Ripple watch is good enough in standby capacity. Under the 7-hour standby test, the Tomos system avoids the inadvertent loss of power.

Test environment: use the maximum brightness within one hour of 100% power, test the power consumption

Due to the limitation of size, smart watches cannot carry large capacity, so the power consumption of most smart watches on the market is not optimistic, and even some smart watches may be charged three times a day due to heavy use. Then, the author conducted a daily use test on the T-Ripple watch, including "changing the dial, checking the stock index, checking the weather, making phone calls and other continuous use of the bright screen". After one hour of use with the highest brightness, the Tuman T-Ripple watch consumed 18% of the power. With a strong standby capacity, it was conservatively estimated that it could be competent for "one charge for two days" under non heavy use.

The power saving mode of the Tomos system is another key to improve the endurance.

When it comes to the "power saving mode" of smart watches, it is nothing new. The system of the Tuman T-Ripple watch also adds this function. This function is to slightly reduce the CPU frequency of the watch, turn off the wrist lift and light the screen, and start the default dial, so as to achieve low power consumption operation of the watch and achieve energy saving.

epilogue

In this experience of the Turkish T-Ripple watch, the business orientation of the watch is quite clear. For example, the modeling uses mature embedded technology and the symmetrical processing of the body of traditional business watches. There are two scenes in the scene mode that point to the business community. It is not difficult to find that even the "configuration problem" that men most care about is the Turkish T-Ripple, which also strives to achieve the top configuration, For example, the retina screen and the first mobile device with XBurst CPU core in China, as well as the enhanced performance of business positioning, whether to man or to girl, are enough to meet our experience of smart watches.

The author thinks that the biggest highlight of the Tumen T-Ripple watch is also enough to save power! Even if the functions of a smart watch are very powerful, the most important thing is to have enough good endurance and save power in function enrichment and optimization. Both of them are the connection of good user experience. The Tuman T-Ripple watch has achieved these two things, including six scenarios, making calls, daily use functions The extremely fast charging speed and remarkable standby optimization make it unnecessary to remove the watch frequently for charging and frequently operate the mobile phone. These convenience has been a satisfactory answer to this smart watch.
