preface
It's shameless to say that I am also an old driver user of the bracelet, bong2HR, Evian i6HR, the bong3HR that is currently wearing, has accumulated rich experience in using the bracelet, and often runs and exercises at ordinary times. Looking back at the development of bracelets, it would be appropriate to say that they are "accessories" if the bracelets were just launched. There is no display screen, and all the information should be displayed in the mobile phone APP. At that time, the bracelets were more like a step counting tool, with more attached properties; With the progress and upgrading of products from generation to generation, more functions have been added, except for a few functions serving mobile phones and the display of specific data that can only be realized by connecting mobile phones or using APP, which basically realizes intelligent independent work. Moreover, in the case of increasingly convergent functions of intelligent wearable devices, especially smart bracelets, whether they can make their own product features is directly related to whether they can be accepted and welcomed by the market. This music heart bracelet ZIVA plus, I commented on it as "beautiful in face, specialized in sports, skilled in heart rate, and attributed to health", "specialized in sports, skilled in heart rate" is the official description, "beautiful in face, attributed to health" is a new idea I added, so how does this music heart bracelet ZIVA plus perform in actual use, Please follow me to find out.
1、 Unpacking and appearance
one , Bracelet packaging
A good product is excellent and satisfactory from outside to inside, The package of Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus is very thoughtful. As mentioned before, we have also used several bracelets of different brands, but it is the first Lexin that has such a high-end and grand packaging.
The bracelet is packed in a cube, and the main packaging box is a two-stage design rather than the traditional pull or include type. The outside of the packaging box is a paper cover, which is printed with the big picture of the spokesman Chen Weiting, and the line color of the packaging box is consistent with the color of the bracelet host. My version is "burning color", so the packaging is mainly black and gold, which is very eye-catching.
The packing boxes of bong2HR and Evian i6HR bracelets were found after rummaging through the boxes. They were put together with the Lexin bracelet ZIVA plus for comparison.
2. Appearance of bracelet
After carefully unpacking the package, we can see the ZIVA plus bracelet. The bracelet is in the center of the box, and the instructions are hidden in the box cover. It avoids the trouble of taking out all the stuffing in the box to find the instructions. It's a very considerate design.
The main body of the bracelet is designed in three sections. The main body of the bracelet and two sections of wrist strap are both detachable. The machine number is printed on one side of the host and the USB socket on the other side. This machine number is unique. When connecting to the bracelet APP, the unique QR code on the manual will also be used.
The frame around the host is made of metal. The front center is a touch screen, and the back is a photoelectric sensor. The overall workmanship is excellent. The connection between the frame, display screen and sensor is very smooth and integrated.
The bracelet and wrist strap are all black, with a textured design on the outside and a smooth design on the inside. They are slightly wider than ordinary wrist straps, but they are very soft. They have a great feel and wear. The wrist strap adopts a snap on design similar to that of a watch, and the snap ring is printed with the Lilliputian logo of Le Xin, which is very distinctive. The connection and disassembly of the wrist strap and the host are realized through the pressing parts at both ends of the wrist strap, which is very convenient to operate, and there is no gap between the wrist strap and the host after the connection, which is very beautiful.
Summary: Lexin bracelet ZIVA plus has made great efforts in the design of packaging and appearance, which is very simple, but it is full of Lexin's characteristics everywhere. From packaging to instructions, from the bracelet host to the wrist strap, the workmanship is very exquisite, the whole machine has a very high appearance, and the wearing experience is very good. "Beautiful in appearance" is what it means.
2、 Functional experience of bracelet
1. Connect to mobile APP
The first part of using the bracelet is to connect with the mobile phone APP. In the manual, there is a QR code downloaded from the APP. After downloading, if there is a Lexin account, you can log in directly. If there is no Lexin account, you can choose to register with your mobile phone number or log in quickly through WeChat and QQ. After the first registration and login, you need to fill in some personal information, such as birthday, height and weight, and then set the user's nickname and avatar, set the goal of weight and daily steps, and then you will be prompted to bind the device. At this time, you need to use another unique QR code on the manual, scan the QR code to bind. After binding, the user can directly display the introduction, and then set other functions on my device according to personal needs. After binding, I received a prompt to upgrade the bracelet, so I upgraded according to the prompt. The upgrade speed was very fast, and the bracelet still had 64% power when binding.
2. Sleep monitoring
At the same time, they wore the music heart bracelet ZIVA plus and the bong3HR bracelet for three days of sleep monitoring. The specific data is shown in the following picture.
The difference between the two is not big in three days. Only on the second day, the time of falling asleep and getting up identified by the two are somewhat different. The time of falling asleep identified by the Lexin bracelet ZIVA plus is more accurate, and the time of getting up identified by bong3HR is more accurate. I think it may be that the reason why the Lexin bracelet ZIVA plus did not move much in bed and played with the mobile phone for a while after waking up led to the late time of getting up identified by the Lexin bracelet ZIVA plus, The reason that bong3HR recognizes that it falls asleep earlier is that it just plays with its mobile phone before going to bed, which is also often encountered in previous use. If it lies still for a long time, bong3HR will recognize it as a sleeping state. Therefore, I did not record accurate data on the specific sleep time, but from the data recorded by the two bracelets, the difference is within an acceptable range, which should be credible and accurate.
3. Heart rate monitoring
This time, the heart rate monitoring of the Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus has been upgraded, and the heart rate early warning function has been added. Also, the heart rate monitoring data has been compared with that of the bong3HR bracelet for three consecutive days. Both of them have opened the continuous heart rate monitoring function, and the heart rate monitoring of the Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus is mainly used. For example, they were not worn during swimming records b Ong3HR bracelet, because I'm afraid it will be buried in the swimming pool, ha ha. The specific data comparison is shown in the following picture.
In fact, the heart rate monitoring is not obvious in the picture, so I will write more. The heart rate curve formed by heart rate monitoring of the heart rate bracelet ZIVA plus is completed in 5 minutes. We can see that its heart rate curve changes significantly and fluctuates more; The bong3HR bracelet completes the heart rate curve drawing in an hour, so its heart rate curve is smoother. I think this is the difference in technology. Only more advanced heart rate monitoring technology can achieve more accurate and detailed data recording and heart rate curve drawing and presentation.
Because the wearing time is sometimes inconsistent, we take several time points for comparison, including early morning, early morning, morning, noon, afternoon and evening. The comparative data are as follows. In almost every group, the heart rate monitoring data of Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus is higher than that of bong3HR bracelet, but the difference is not great. In fact, the main significance of comparing the monitoring data of these two bracelets is not to judge the advantages and disadvantages. After all, they are not professional heart rate monitoring instruments, but Lexin is a medical instrument, so I believe in Lexin's data more. And by combining heart rate, sleep and data, we can also see when we sleep better.
The exercise heart rate early warning function, which I set earlier is more than 165 times/minute alarm, which may be that the exercise amplitude is not strong enough, but later changed to 115 times/minute alarm. When the heart rate exceeds this data, the bracelet will vibrate early warning. This function is still necessary in actual exercise to avoid body damage during exercise.
4. Step monitoring
The concept of equivalent steps has been added to the Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus, that is, the total steps obtained by combining the steps recorded by the bracelet with the steps recorded by the mobile phone itself, plus the steps converted from other exercises, can more comprehensively reflect the amount of exercise in a day. In the step number monitoring part, the Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus is also compared with the bong3HR bracelet. However, because the wearing time of the two bracelets is inconsistent, the comparison of the whole day data will not be objective, so the number of steps recorded by both walking and running tests within a fixed time is selected. The specific data is shown in the following figure.
It can be seen from the pictures that the gap between the two is not big, and the records are relatively accurate, which can be used as a reference in sports.
5. Wake up screen
The Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus can wake up the screen by flipping the wrist and touching the screen. The two methods are very sensitive. In fact, most of the bracelets on the market are awakened through these two ways. Here we compare the speed of the screen with that of the bong3HR bracelet. It can be seen that no matter which way to awaken the screen, the music heart bracelet ZIVA plus is faster, more sensitive and better.
Here, we also compared the screen display effect of the Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus with that of the bong3HR bracelet. By adjusting the screen display effect of the bong3HR bracelet to highlight, we can see that the display effect of the Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus is better in brightness and font size.
6. Charging and endurance
After the bracelet is connected to the mobile phone APP, 64% of the power is displayed. I have turned on all the functions. The first day of normal use, 9% of the power is consumed one day, and the next and third days of walking, swimming and running tests are conducted. The power is still 17%, and the final 10% of the power is consumed for charging. The 5V-1A used is discharged from the charger. The early charging speed is very fast, and 1% can be charged in half a minute. See the video, In the later stage, the charging speed slowed down until it was fully charged. It took 73 minutes, so it can be said that the charging speed was very fast. When all the functions are turned on, the power consumption is 9% a day. It can be used for ten days even after a full charge. The endurance is very good. In normal use, not all the functions need to be turned on. It also saves more power. The performance of charging and endurance is very satisfactory.
7. Other functions
In addition to the above mentioned sports functions such as sleep, heart rate and step number monitoring, the Lexin bracelet ZIVA plus also has alarm clock prompt, long sitting prompt, call prompt, SMS prompt, WeChat prompt, stopwatch and other functions.
At most 5 alarm clocks can be set on the bracelet, and the bracelet will vibrate at the corresponding time; Set the long sitting prompt. You can choose the prompt frequency by yourself. After reaching the interval time, the bracelet will vibrate to prompt you to move; Call, SMS and WeChat prompt can be selected in the basic settings. When there is a call or message after opening, it will prompt. You can hang up the phone on the bracelet.
The stopwatch function is very practical in sports. It can be directly opened on the bracelet. You can watch the demonstration in the video without using the APP. It should be noted that the stopwatch cannot be exited during operation, and can only be exited after pause. This design is very reasonable to avoid inaccurate time recording due to accidental touch.
In addition, in the bracelet APP, you can customize the display content and order on the screen and the style of the dial, providing diversified and personalized choices.
Summary: Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus can be said to have all the functions that an intelligent bracelet should have, and is "good at heart rate". It has upgraded the heart rate monitoring technology, integrating heart rate monitoring into sleep and exercise, providing heart rate early warning, more accurate recording and analysis of daily sleep and exercise data, and escorting health. The daily reminder function is also very complete. In addition to the easy to understand operation mode, excellent charging and continuous performance, it can be said that "although the sparrow is small, it has all the dirty things", which can almost meet all the daily needs.
3、 Scenario Usage
The Le Xin bracelet ZIVA plus can open two sports modes on the bracelet, namely, walking and running, and can also open the cycling sports mode on the bracelet, which can automatically identify the swimming sports mode. Next, we will conduct scene experience for three sports modes, namely walking, running and swimming, besides cycling. As for why not experience riding, for one thing, I don't have a bike, and for another, I don't share a bike here, so I have to bear the pain and not experience it, but it will not affect the overall experience effect. In fact, the methods are the same. Turning on the riding mode bracelet on the APP will automatically record the data and track of the ride (if you choose to turn on the GPS track), then the next step is to start walking Experience the scene of running and swimming.
1. Walking mode
The walking mode can be used in the bracelet and APP The bracelet can also be automatically recognized. Generally, walking will be recognized as healthy walking APP The automatically identified data in will be added [auto] To distinguish it from the actively triggered walking mode.
After actively selecting the walking mode, you can choose whether to record the track. The bracelet will record the heart rate, step frequency, distance, steps, calories consumed and time of walking. It can be said that the recorded data is very complete APP In addition, other information such as trajectories will be plotted and displayed in a chart, which can more intuitively view and analyze the motion data.
two , Running Mode
Running mode can be used in the bracelet and APP The bracelet can also be automatically recognized when the running mode is turned on APP The data displayed in is the same as that in walking mode. The trajectory, heart rate, pace, distance, steps, calories consumed and time can all be APP See in.
three Swimming mode
Swimming mode in the bracelet and APP None of them can be opened actively, and they can only be identified automatically by the bracelet. In the experience, I swam, swam and swam the bracelet without recognizing the swimming mode, which made me wonder if there was a problem with the bracelet. So I went to the Tmall flagship store and asked the customer service, who gave me the following answer:
"When you swim with a bracelet, the bracelet will automatically identify the user swimming and record swimming data (no need to manually set and open) APP When connected, automatically APP Detailed swimming data is shown on. [ Note: The bracelet is required to upgrade the latest version of firmware( T026 Or above), the latest heart movement APP Version( three Or above). ]
Wear the bracelet correctly and swim in the swimming pool ten More than minutes and try to reduce the rest time between each lie, you will automatically enter the swimming mode. The standard swimming posture is more conducive to the accuracy of swimming data recording. [ Note: irregular swimming in the beach and river is not supported temporarily ] ”
I finally know what my problem is. The main problem is that swimming is too good. I can't reach the condition of automatic recognition of the bracelet. I still need to practice more.
The swimming test is also a test of the waterproof function of the hand ring two During the swimming test for more than hours, the bracelet has been in the water all the time. When it is used in the water within about 10 cm, the touch wake-up screen will fail, but turning the wrist can wake up the screen. If it is deeper, turning the wrist wake-up screen will also fail. After disembarking, the bracelet and wrist strap were disassembled. There was no water infiltration at the connection. The waterproof function of the bracelet was very reliable.
Summary: These kinds of sports modes supported by the heart bracelet ZIVA plus are also the most common in our life. The performance of both the recognition of sports modes and the recording of sports data are excellent. The "specialized in sports" is to make sports more efficient and convenient, which is achieved by the heart bracelet ZIVA plus.
4、 Summary and evaluation
Returning to the question I put forward in the preface at the beginning of the article, "In the case of increasingly convergent functions of intelligent wearable devices, especially smart bracelets, whether or not to make the characteristics of their own products is directly related to whether or not they can be accepted and welcomed by the market, then how does this music heart bracelet ZIVA plus perform in actual use?", You should have found the answer. The performance of ZIVA plus is very good!
First of all, I am used to seeing the bracelet with a small black plastic display screen. The appearance of this metal body, blue and gold dual color large screen Lexin bracelet ZIVA plus is absolutely dazzling, which is called "beautiful in appearance";
Secondly, the heart rate monitoring function upgrade of the heart rate bracelet ZIVA plus is very targeted. Compared with the functions of step counting, clock and reminder, heart rate and sleep are more closely related to human health. The improvement of heart rate monitoring accuracy and the heart rate early warning function, combined with sleep data, can more effectively analyze the physical condition in a period of time, This is "good at heart rate and healthy";
Finally, the basic functions of the sports bracelet, the music heart bracelet ZIVA plus, are perfect: the screen is large and clear, comfortable to wear, fast charging speed and long life, and the daily use of various reminder functions are all available; The motion mode is automatically recognized, and the data record is accurate and clear. It can be said that the music heart bracelet ZIVA plus meets all my fantasies about intelligent sports bracelets. This is what "beautiful in face, specialized in sports, proficient in heart rate, and healthy" said.
Of course, we can't say that the music heart bracelet ZIVA plus is perfect, which is not objective. As I said earlier, the swimming mode cannot be selected actively, and the conditions for automatic recognition are very strict. In actual use, only a few people who can swim well can use it, so the function of swimming recognition and recording is wasted, You can really consider optimizing in the later version upgrade, and adding it to the motion mode you can choose.
In a word, the flaws do not hide the merits. This is a high face bracelet born for sports and serving health and convenient life. The Joy Heart bracelet ZIVA plus is worth having.
