[Preface]

Thanks to the "MAS CARNEY Smart Watch" provided by the pilot company, it is a hybrid smart watch developed by Maskeny Technology. It has the appearance of a traditional watch, but can realize the intelligent functions of bracelet products. Today, when the homogenization of smart watches is extremely serious, Mascareni smart watches have taken a new approach. It takes independent use as the starting point, extending the life to one year. At the same time, it also has practical functions such as remote control photography, SMS reminder, call rejection, movement measurement, sleep monitoring, etc. It is a trendy watch integrated with fashionable technology elements.

[Unpacking]

The packing box of "MAS CARNEY Smart Watch" is very simple. It is a small cube shape. It uses the way of opening the roof, without complicated words and decorations. The appearance of the original color pulp pays attention to environmental protection.

The English name of the product "MAS CARNEY CAVALIER" is only marked on the front of the packaging box, which is destined to take the international route and be in line with international standards. I hope the product can bring me surprises.

On the four sides of the packaging box, the front and back are only printed with the APP QR code for download and installation without any text description; The left and right sides have carefully reserved semicircular opening holes at the bottom for the convenience of opening the box with both hands.

There are blue stickers on the packaging box to indicate the origin of the product.

There is also a triangular yellow sticker on the box, which should be the product color logo. It seems that the box must contain the most eye-catching yellow watch.

Take off the upper cover, it is really eyeful yellow, yellow dial, yellow strap, the watch quietly lying on the support cotton, very beautiful.

Take out the watch. There is a manual under the box. The top page is still in English. I can't help worrying about whether I can understand the contents.

The manual is designed as a foldout and printed on one side. The content is in Chinese and there is no barrier to use. It is brief and comprehensive in terms of APP download and installation and watch function description. The front page is the front view of the watch, and the meanings of various icons on the dial are clearly marked beside it, with specific images.

All the items in the packing box have been introduced. There is no charging line or charger in the box, because it is unnecessary, the watch uses button battery for power supply; They didn't provide a disassembly tool because it has a one-year service life and doesn't need to change the battery frequently. It's not recommended to open the back cover yourself. My first impression of the Mascareni smart watch is that it is simple, simple, simple, and especially humanized.

[Details]

The appearance of the "MAS CARNEY Smart Watch" is exactly the same as that of the traditional watch. The round dial, three watch needle, single handle head, glass watch cover, stainless steel case, nylon strap, worn on the wrist, is an ordinary watch. But if you look closely, you will find that it is different.  

First of all, the dial is engraved with many words and patterns, revealing its intelligence immediately.

At the 12 o'clock position just above the dial, there is a red LED light that flashes or lights up for a long time during operation, indicating whether the corresponding operation is correct.

The scale of three quarters of the circumference of the inner circle is from 0 to 100, which is the completion degree of the daily exercise goal.

The left quarter of the inner circle is the alarm clock, information and phone icons. When a corresponding event occurs, the second hand will automatically point to the icon to remind the user to handle it in time, which is very accurate and intelligent.

A dense ring stripe is used slightly higher than the inner circle, and in the left area, the English abbreviation is used to refer to the search, sports, and Sunday (Sunday Saturday) functions. When we want to view the corresponding information, the second hand will first point to one of the icons, and then point to the information display area. The operation method is described in detail later.

The dial is printed with "MAS CARNEY" and "SMART WATCH", which are the most obvious identification marks.  

Secondly, the stainless steel bottom cover on the back of the watch is polished with a mirror, which is shining like a mirror, with English instructions on the functions of the watch printed on it.

3atm water resistant indicates that the watch is waterproof at 30m and can withstand 3 atmospheres, which is waterproof for life. It is not recommended to wear it for a long time when bathing or swimming.

PMPD refers to personal behavior and health data service system.

ALL STAINLESS STEEL means that the watch is made of all stainless steel and is made of high-grade 316 medical steel, which can effectively prevent allergy and reduce metal allergy to 1/10000000.

Finally, the rest of the components.

The watch handle on the right looks like a spiral shape, but in fact it can only be pressed and cannot be turned. It does not have the function of adjusting the needle, but can achieve different functions by short or long press.  

The watch strap and the watch ear are connected through the ear, which is a traditional fixing method. If there is no handy tool when disassembling, it is slightly laborious; With the progress of science and technology, quick disassembly ear has emerged, which can save time and labor in the disassembly of watch strap. It is recommended that manufacturers consider using it to replace the existing traditional ear.  

The watchband is made of nylon and is sewn with double layers and thickened. It is 20mm wide and divided into left and right sections. Eight holes are drilled evenly on one section, with small hole spacing, which can be worn by people with different wrist thicknesses; The other section is embedded with a stainless steel pin buckle and two stainless steel clasps. The material and case are made of 316 medical steel, which is well made and shiny.

Disassembly

"MAS CARNEY Smart Watch" can realize many high-tech functions under the appearance of ordinary watches. How is it implemented? Obviously, the answer should be found from inside, so I took the watch apart to satisfy my curiosity.  

Use the disassembly tool to pry the hole along the bar at the upper right corner of the bottom cover to open the bottom cover.  

The edge of the bottom cover is covered with a black round rubber seal ring, which can ensure the waterproof and dustproof of IP67; There is a semicircular notch at the handle of the corresponding meter for positioning during buckle back.  

At the top of the watch cell is a Sony brand CR2430 button type lithium battery, voltage: 3V, origin: Indonesia.  

After removing the battery, there is a black circuit board below. Because it is covered with plastic washers, it is impossible to get a full view.  

The plastic washer is fixed with 5 clips. Pry the clip to remove the washer.  

The plastic washer is mainly used to fix the battery and supply power to the main board; It is printed with the "SMART MOVT C004" logo. For general query, it should be a smart chip C004 movement; An oval reset hole is reserved on the left side of the logo, and the "RST" logo is printed beside it for easy identification.  

After removing the gasket, the black circuit board is completely exposed.

One side is a bright silver vibration motor, which is very eye-catching.

There are three key positions on one side of the handle of the watch. I don't know why, but only one key was designed. Is it used for future upgrades?  

There is a text mark beside the metal contact of the round "RST" key, which corresponds to the hole position on the plastic washer and should not be confused.  

It is said that the gearbox was originally imported from Xitie City. Since there is no weighing tool on hand to remove the meter, I did not dare to continue to disassemble it rashly, so I was a bit hesitant. The unfinished work is reserved for the next battery replacement, and we will continue to present a more in-depth disassembly display.  

The restoration work was very smooth, and only the bottom cover was buttoned, and the work was completed. But I was so happy too early that this little action baffled me. Looking back at the manual, it has been clearly pointed out that it is recommended to open the cover and replace the battery at a professional watch repair shop.  

After checking on the Internet, the reason is that after the bottom cover is opened, professional tools are needed to press it together. It is almost hopeless to do so with bare hands. Netizens have provided various solutions, but to be safe, I took my watch and went to a watch repair shop. Unexpectedly, the price of 20 yuan was charged for one dollar, which made me feel bad immediately.

Go home and do it yourself. According to the suggestions of netizens, I found a wooden cork, a hammer, and a book. I put the book under the watch, with the surface facing down, and the bottom cover aligned with the watch case. Then I pressed the cork on the top to keep balance; Use a hammer to hit the plug of the kettle with force. There is only a clang sound, and the bottom cover goes in, which fits perfectly with the watch case. It returns to its original state, saving 20 yuan. Hehe.

【APP】

All high-tech functions of "MAS CARNEY Smart Watch" are intuitively presented through APP. Through the close combination of software and hardware, the statistics and analysis of data such as motion counting and sleep recording can be perfectly realized.

Scan the QR code of the packaging box, and you can jump to the APP download page. For the first time, you can see that the APP was originally called "D-MAP", with a full English name and full international style; After selecting the IOS system, you will be prompted to start installing the APP. Later, I went to the Apple Store to search for the APP, which was originally developed by Shenzhen Smart Watch Core Technology Co., Ltd., and finally I got some basic understanding of this product.

When entering the APP, you will be prompted to allow D-MAP to use the network and to enable Bluetooth; Searching for smart watches, the matching process is very simple, and the connection with the watch is successful, realizing the perfect docking of software and hardware.

For the first time, a novice guide is provided, and the needle is manually corrected. After everything is normal, you can enter the APP to enjoy the magic function of data recording and analysis. You will find that the software may understand your body better than you.

The functions provided by D-MAP are divided into four interfaces: My Day, Analysis, Smart Play and My. The four functions are described below.

The most important function of APP is data recording and analysis, and its recording results are reflected in "My Day". Here, you can see your daily exercise data, sleep duration and other data, and even display information in different periods, so that you can fully grasp your daily activity rules. The exercise data can not only count steps, but also convert into calorie consumption, exercise duration, exercise distance and other data; Sleep data is divided into three categories: deep sleep, shallow sleep and wake-up times.

The most important function of APP is data recording and analysis, and its analysis results are reflected in "analysis". It is mainly displayed in two statistical ways: day and week. Statistics by day are presented in the form of a monthly calendar. Blue and green progress bars are used to show the daily exercise and sleep conditions. Horizontal comparison can be made to understand the achievement of your daily goals. After both goals are achieved, medals will be given on the same day. Statistics by week are presented in the form of week, and histogram is used to vertically compare all exercise data and sleep conditions in this week, so as to comprehensively master their own dynamic data.

The reason why MAS CARNEY watch is called a smart watch is that all its functions are experienced in "smart play". Six functions can be set here: "intelligent alarm clock", "remote control photo taking", "do not disturb mode", "intelligent reminder", "needle correction" and "disconnection reminder". After each function is set successfully, the watch will automatically remind and control, and make full personal customization according to the user's needs. The same watch can achieve different functions.

The user and hardware settings are all made through the "My" interface. The most important thing is to set your own goals of the number of steps and the length of sleep. The watch will display the percentage of completion on the dial according to the set goals. If Xiaobai is not very clear about the use of the watch, you can go to help find solutions. It lists the use methods and problem solutions of the watch in detail, and the content is obviously more detailed and specific than the manual.

Although MAS CARNEY smart watch is a new product, its system and firmware are upgraded frequently. In just a few days, my watch system has risen from 1.0.21 to 1.0.23; The device firmware is upgraded from 0.0.4 to 0.0.8. During the upgrade, the battery should be sufficient and the Bluetooth connection should be stable. The upgrade time is about 8 minutes, which is relatively long.

After a period of trial, my step counting statistics are presented. Although individual data are not very accurate, they basically reflect my daily exercise rules, and the histogram below shows the comparison information of exercise time and frequency.

The above figure shows my sleep data. The first figure shows the data generated during product delivery, which is quite special. The duration of the other five groups is short and long, which basically reflects the information of my sleep duration every night. Although the information is not accurate, I don't know the situation of deep and shallow sleep after sleep, so I believe it.

Trial

Among all the functions of "MAS CARNEY Smart Watch", the three functions that need to be viewed manually are movement data, week and watch search. You need to press the right table briefly to display the information. Information reminder, call reminder and alarm clock do not need manual intervention, and the watch will automatically remind.

Find watch function:

Short press twice, the second hand will automatically point to FIND, and the phone will ring at the same time.

Achieving degree of sports goals:

Short press 3 times, and the second hand will automatically point to ACT. After 2 seconds, the second hand will point to the completion percentage. Only approximate data can be displayed, and detailed data must be viewed in APP.

View week function:

Short press 4 times, the second hand automatically points to WEEK, and 2 seconds later, the second hand points to the week of the day.

Call reminder:

After the call comes in, the mobile phone displays first, and then the watch points to the call reminder location, with a delay of nearly 4 seconds.

Information reminder:

After the information comes in, the mobile phone displays it first, and then the watch points to the information reminder location. The delay is less than 1 second, which is basically synchronous.

Alarm reminder:

When the alarm clock time is up, the watch first points to the alarm clock reminder position, and then the bracelet alarm clock rings. There is a delay of about 10 seconds in the middle. It may be that the time is not synchronized, or the watch needle is not well calibrated.

Summary

"MAS CARNEY Smart Watch" has beautiful appearance, excellent performance, fashion and taste. Although it has the appearance of a traditional watch, which can raise my wrist to check the time at any time, I use its own integrated technology to achieve daily movement counting and sleep time statistics, and it can remind me of mobile phone calls, SMS, messages and alarm clock information at any time, so that I can not miss important information even if my mobile phone is not around. Through nearly half a month's trial, its reliability and effectiveness have been tested. It is indeed a traditional and intelligent hybrid watch. I believe it will definitely win a battle in the competition of smart wear products and take the lead. However, through trial, I also found that it has some minor defects that affect its use. I hope that the manufacturer can correct them and create the next generation of products that better meet the needs of users!

advantage:

1. Beautiful appearance. Yellow dial, yellow strap, glass dial and stainless steel case all show fashion and trend, and are smart watches that young people prefer to wear.

2. Excellent performance. Traditionally, it is both intelligent. The built-in sensor can record the steps and sleep duration. With APP, it can realize the statistics and analysis of big data and display more content for users.

3. Powerful. It has features such as call reminder, information reminder and alarm clock reminder, and can be customized according to needs, which conforms to everyone's use habits.

4. The information is accurate. The data displayed by the APP basically conforms to the real situation, especially after a long time of wearing training, the data will be more real and effective, reflecting the user's movement rules and other characteristics.

Disadvantages:

1. Appearance. The thickness of the Mascareni smart watch is significantly greater than that of the traditional quartz watch, and the weight is also heavy; All steel case with nylon strap, some LOW; The bright electroplating process makes the new watch look bright and shiny, but after a period of use, its wear resistance defects begin to appear, and there are many scratches on the bottom cover.

2. Display. A single control button and a second hand are displayed separately. The result is that the operation is complex, counting and high attention are required, which will cause pressure to users, and they are even unwilling to use its functions.

3. Design. The main reason is that the bottom cover is buckled. It is clearly a smart watch, but it takes care of the traditional watch business. The spiral closure mode can be used completely, which can also achieve waterproof and dust-proof effects. Why not?

4. Suggestion: The weekly display mode is too complicated. Can you use LED light to display? Is it more beautiful and direct?

To sum up, although "MAS CARNEY smart watch" still has some shortcomings, it has many advantages in general, and the product is also constantly upgrading. I believe that through continuous improvement, it will become a big winner in the smart watch industry!
