Write in front

The CEO of Weile ran on the treadmill to finish the launch of Weile Xiaohei 3. However, after the first sale, he encountered serious software problems. After two months of sales suspension, it was launched again, It seems that the "starting from the heart" of Xiaohei 3 is still applicable at this time. Compared with the previous generation of Xiaohei 2, Xiaohei 3 has added a sports level real-time heart rate. The running press conference also verified the main sports function of Xiaohei 3, but it is hard to believe that the constant color touch screen can still achieve a 40 day long endurance. So today's protagonist is Xiaohei 3, but it will also be compared with the previous generation product Xiaohei 2 and the glorious watch S1, which also focuses on long endurance, to get a clearer understanding of Xiaohei 3.

Open box experience

Weile Xiaohei 3 (below the picture) and Xiaohei 2 (above the picture) both use three layers of kraft paper for transportation protection, so you don't need to worry about the damage of violent express when the express is delivered to everyone.

The package of Xiaohei 3 is opened with kraft paper, and it is carefully fixed inside with plastic film to prevent shaking and collision. It can be seen that the packaging is very careful.

The packing box is still completely black. In addition to the logo of WeLoop, the only difference is that there are three different colors of horizontal lines. It should be that the color screen is used to highlight the small black 3.

On the back is an easy to tear seal and some basic information about the product. The small black 3 has a lot of color versions of the body. Today, we got the black standard version.

Compared with the packaging of Xiaohei 2 standard edition and commemorative edition, the cylindrical packaging box of Xiaohei 2 commemorative edition is also used for the Xiaohei 3 all ceramic plus sapphire edition currently exposed on Weibo.

Open the real packaging box, you can see the body and charging base of the small black 3, the watch strap and charging cable are stored in the box on the right, and the manual and warranty card are stored in the green hollowed out paper clip, which is very delicate packaging.

Appearance experience

The small black 3 uses a metal watch frame for the first time, with an eight color 1.28-inch MEMORY LCD screen on the front. The advantage is that it can be displayed frequently, and the stronger the light is, the clearer it will be. On the contrary, you need to turn on the backlight to see clearly at night. The color screen also gives the little black 3 a richer display effect, but the front is not like the light sensor on the front of the Glory watch S1, which is a pity.

Thanks to the addition of touch screen, the keys are also reduced from four physical keys of Xiaohei 2 to one physical key on the left and one on the right. The Glory watch S1 does not have any physical buttons.

And the body and screen have a certain radian, which can ensure a better fit to the wrist.

The Xiaohei 3 still uses the mainstream 20mm quick detachable and replaceable watchband. Although it takes a little effort to install it for the first time, considering the playability and personalization in the later period, it is still very good. The sweat slot is added inside the watchband. Although it is a standard wristband, it also takes care of certain sports functions.

The following is Xiaohei 2, Xiaohei 3, and the charging base of Glory watch S1. Xiaohei 3 gives up the integrated charging base of Xiaohei 2, which is more exquisite. The contact is placed at the lower part of the body. Personally, placing it at the lower sides will have a certain protective effect against the erosion of sweat. The glorious approach is basically the same as that of Xiaohei 3, which adopts a split design.

Since the small black 3 uses a square body, it inevitably looks like APPLE WATCH. However, the square dial does have greater advantages over the round dial in terms of the content of information displayed. To be honest, I personally prefer the round dial. I prefer the appearance of the Glory watch S1, and will choose the small black 3 in practice. Therefore, we also hope that Weile can open up a new product line of round dial.

Wearing and function experience

The Xiaohei 3 is only 36g, and it is very comfortable to wear with the curved body matched with the arc of the arm.

The screen is locked when not in use. Touch is unavailable. Lift your hand or click the left or right button to unlock it. The left button can also enter the status information interface, which is equivalent to the notification bar of Android phones. You can see whether the phone is connected, the power, and whether the Do Not Disturb mode is turned on.

Right click to enter the function selection interface. The functions of Xiaohei 3 mainly include message push, sports data recording, weather display, stopwatch countdown, music control, mobile phone search, etc.

Message push is relatively timely. Notifications from phone calls, SMS messages and third-party applications can be alerted. What's more, the content displayed is rich, and the number of words displayed is also large.

Running mode records the movement data during running. The cycling mode is the same. At present, swimming mode is not supported. The official said that it will be supported through firmware update in the future, while the Glory watch S1 supports swimming mode.

Stopwatch and countdown are very practical for watches. The interface is also beautiful with a color screen.

When running, many people will listen to music. At this time, they can switch songs without taking out their mobile phones. It actually supports mainstream music playing software, which is very practical.

The mobile phone can be searched under the condition of Bluetooth connection, for example, when you can't find the mobile phone at home, the mobile phone will vibrate and keep ringing, which is a magic weapon for the forgetful person.

APP software experience

With Xiaohei 3, Weile APP has also been upgraded to 5.0. The firmware update notice pops up at the first step of connecting the mobile phone. The latest firmware version is v1.91 up to now. It is said that there will be more changes and functions added in version 2.0.

The APP homepage is divided by four major functions, which are also commonly used functions and are relatively intuitive.

The unique font is a bit messy to tell the truth, especially the complex timeline, which seems very unclear, and you can't see the sports information you need.

The dial function is not open, and only one personalized dial can be stored at the watch end. The dial quality varies, and only a few can be used in practice. I hope the official opening of the dial production tool.

Step number and sleep are relatively intuitive to see the details of the required information. Different exercise volume and sleep quality are distinguished by different colors. After a long time of testing, the sensory data of step counting and sleep are very accurate.

There are also some commonly used functions, such as alarm clock, do not disturb, long sitting reminder and QR code business card, which need to be completed through APP.

It can be said that the overall experience of the APP is still a little poor, and there are not many functions, so we still hope that Weile can increase the development of software. After all, the hardware and motion algorithm are very good.

Heart rate and exercise experience

At last, the main function of Xiaohei 3 is sports level real-time heart rate. The previous generation of Xiaohei 2 does not support heart rate, so there is Xiaohei 3's "starting from the heart" solgan.

Compared with the heart rate of Glory watch S1, the static heart rate of the two watches is basically the same, and it will not show the heart rate of other non human objects. The performance of the static heart rate is fairly good.

However, the heart rate records of the whole day are quite different. The reason is that the measurement frequency of Glory S1 is significantly higher than that of Xiaohei 3, which makes it possible that the heart rate data of Xiaohei 3 may not be displayed completely. However, it is likely that this is done for the sake of endurance. The choice of endurance and function can only be left to the manufacturer.

Exercise real-time heart rate is the main function of both watches. Let's take a look. During the test, the left hand wears a small black 3, and the right hand wears a glory S1. The two pictures below are also on the left side. The step frequency is basically the same, and the heart rate of the small black 3 is higher. From the change of this curve, I think the small black 3 is more professional, so for the exercise heart rate, I think Xiaohei 3 is more accurate.

Waterproof and endurance experience

The small black 3 supports 5ATM waterproof, which means that there is no problem in 50m deep water, so there is no problem in daily direct cleaning and swimming, so you don't need to take it off frequently, which is very friendly.

The endurance official claims that all functions are turned on, that is, the screen is always displayed, message push, heart rate, etc. are turned on, and the 40 day endurance is still guaranteed. This is still terrible. In the actual test, under the condition of heavy use, 25% of the power is consumed in a week, so there is no problem with the 30 day endurance. I think the long endurance is a very good function, Although Glory S1 also has a 7-day endurance, it still makes my user experience decline, so the endurance of Little Black 3 can be said to be among the best in the world at present. The endurance of bracelets without display screen is mostly shorter than it. The endurance of Xiaohei 3 is my favorite feature.

Experience summary

advantage:

1. 40 day long endurance (color screen is always displayed, heart rate is turned on).

2. Sports function data specialty.

3. 5ATM waterproof, very practical.

4. Accurate heart rate, solid hardware and algorithm.

Regrets:

1. Square dial (everyone feels different about this, so it's my own regret for the time being).

2. The software experience is insufficient and the functions are not very rich.

3. Most dials are of low quality.

The price of Xiaohei 3 is 488 yuan. Compared with the 399 Xiaohei 2, the price of Xiaohei 3 is significantly improved. Generally speaking, it is a very practical smart watch. Compared with the 699 yuan Glory S1, I prefer the appearance of Xiaohei 3. So if you are a practical sportsman and can accept a square dial, then Xiaohei 3 must be a good choice.
