Redefining Traditional Watches with the Aesthetic Sense of Science and Technology -- Evaluation of Yimei Smart Watch

In today's technological era, people's travel is increasingly inseparable from the help of electronic intelligent devices. However, it is inconvenient to take out your mobile phone to check the time when you are in a crowded carriage. At this time, a smart watch can solve this problem. In addition, compared with the smart bracelet with more simple shape, this Yimei smart waterproof watch UNIK2 has the appearance of a traditional quartz watch, which should be accepted by a wider age group. So next, the author introduces this smart watch in detail.

1. Appearance and packaging

The cube is packed in a black paper box. The parameters and accessories of the watch are on the four sides. The outline of the watch body, the name (GAMEY, UNIK2), Love to play computer games Stickers (special thanks for the trial opportunity given to me by Aigoji)


It is known from the above that this watch has such functions as low-power Bluetooth, motion counting, alarm clock, sleep status monitoring, call reminder and timer.


(The above figure basically shows the design of the watch surface, but an obvious mistake is that the Roman numeral 4 should be IV instead of III)

Take off the half open paper box. Inside is a leather skin box. There is some flannelette in the box to protect the watch.


When you see the main body of the watch, you can still see that the Roman numeral 4 is wrongly marked.

Charging base, data cable and small pillow shown in the above figure.

The charging data cable is a commonly used microUSB, which is very convenient.

The manual of the watch mainly introduces its functions, the download channel of the official app, the connection method with the mobile phone, the charging method, keys and other components, as well as precautions. In addition, it also has the product WeChat official account, microblog, QQ group, which is convenient for users to use and communicate in the future.

The back of the watch is designed with a brushed laser process. The two black rings on the left are charging interfaces, and the center is the product logo EAMEY, corresponding to two brass bumps on the charging base that are stuck and placed, and can be charged when connected to the power supply.

The first impression is simple and generous, and the overall black is good for daily wear.

The surface is a common round design. Like the traditional quartz watch, it has a clear division, time display and three needles, but it is different from the way that ordinary traditional watches use numbers to mark the time, UNIK2 uses a circle of Roman numerals in the outer ring. However, it is difficult to see the Roman numerals representing the time in the dark environment. If it can be equipped with the luminous function, it is believed that it can adapt to more different situations.

The watchband is made of silica gel, which is soft, comfortable and durable, but the bad thing is that it is easy to sweat if it is worn for a long time in summer, and the air permeability is not good. The buckle is still made of metal.

The edge of the watchband is decorated with orange stitches, which just echoes the orange hour hand and minute hand, and the color contrast design is more fashionable.

The smart screen of the watch uses an arc OLED display screen, with a large viewing angle (you can clearly see the display of the screen from multiple different angles), and it also saves power. You can see the battery display, Bluetooth connection status, sleep status, exercise steps, timer, date and other information.

(Can I not be so straightforward about the text display of my sleep status? Now smart watches will complain too)

Due to the dual movement configuration, the clock display of the watch is separate from the smart screen. Even when the smart screen is powered off, the needle can still rotate as time information display, but the disadvantage is that if the three needles all enter the interval between 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock (IV To VIII, that is, the area of the smart screen) will block the smart screen, which may affect the viewing effect of users.

There are four plastic buttons and a metal knob on both sides of the watch. The buttons on the upper left corner and lower left corner are the confirmation key (press briefly to enter the menu and start some functions), the switch on key (press long to turn on or off, press short to return to the upper menu), and the buttons on the upper right corner and lower right corner are the up and down keys respectively. Press briefly to scroll the menu. Pull up the knob to adjust the pointer time, which is the same as the traditional quartz watch.

The waterproof performance of the watch is quite good. Officially, the watch has a waterproof function of 50 meters in depth. Due to limited conditions, it cannot be displayed temporarily, but it should be OK to wear it in swimming or outdoor sports. However, the watchband is easy to be contaminated with dust and needs to be cleaned frequently.


2. Endurance

The double battery design is adopted. The button battery used in the traditional watch can be replaced by removing the four screws on the back, while the smart screen can be charged by placing the watch on the base and connecting to the power supply. However, the supporting charging line is relatively short, so compared with ordinary socket charging, mobile power may be more suitable. The official endurance value of this watch is 30 days, and the power is displayed as two grids after I get it. When I use it for the first time, the power is still full, which is enough to show that its endurance is good.

3. Use experience with app

The app used with this smart watch is called Yili, which can be downloaded by scanning the QR code directly from the manual. The Android version requires phones above 4.3, and the Apple version requires phones above 5,5s, 6,6Plus, and the system requires phones above iOS 7.0.

In addition to the general use of mobile phones, email registration can also support the login of third-party platforms, which should also be able to better achieve sports and social functions. Connect to the watch through Bluetooth. My device can see the connection status, power display, firmware version and other information of Unik2. However, during the experience, it was found that if you use your phone to open other applications after connection, the Bluetooth connection will be affected, and it may be disconnected occasionally.

As long as the watch is turned on, you can enter the movement step counter. After Bluetooth connection, it will be synchronized to the app client, and the number of calories consumed will also be displayed. After the sleep monitoring mode is opened on the watch, the app can visually see the sleep conditions of days, weeks and months (the time of deep and shallow sleep, the time of falling asleep and waking up, and the length of sleep), record the weight changes, and let users know the current BMI (body mass index). In addition, there is the heart rate test part (but the device does not support it at present, and future upgrades are expected).

This short sleep time is because I forgot to wear my watch to sleep today, so I woke up and took a nap again. The sleep duration on Wednesday and Thursday is normally displayed.

In the ranking section, you can see the ranking of users who use Yili together, and you can also encourage yourself to complete a certain number of steps every day, support sharing to other social platforms, and synchronize to WeChat Sports.

The training section can be set according to the individual's physical condition and endurance, such as walking, jogging, long-distance running, etc.

In addition to the functions mentioned above, there is also a call reminder function. When a call is received after Bluetooth is connected to the mobile phone, the watch screen will display a phone logo with vibration. However, due to the size of the screen, more detailed information such as contacts cannot be displayed.

4. Summary

In a society where intelligent wearable devices are becoming more and more popular, this Yimei smart watch can combine some functions of traditional quartz watches and smart watches. It should be favored by a wider range of age groups except young people (because it is easier to use than a smart phone with more diverse functions). Its shape is simple and fashionable, In addition to doing a good job of displaying time, it can also conveniently record sleep and exercise conditions. However, as a professional watch, the time scale should not be marked with errors (Roman numeral III). In addition, the Bluetooth connection between the app and the watch is not very stable, and some functions are not perfect (such as heart rate monitoring). The band that is not very breathable and heat dissipating may not be suitable for wearing in hot seasons. However, when I came back, I said that the shortcomings outweigh the merits, and I look forward to the upgrading and transformation of subsequent products. UNIK2 is still a product that combines traditional watch technology with scientific beauty.
