It's not a secret for everyone that many manufacturers are trying to imitate Apple's gadgets production, but no one has succeeded in doing exactly the same not only externally. These smart watches have the ability to call and talk directly through them, an SOS emergency call, Icy's voice assistant , phone search, AMOLED display, blood oxygen and heart rate measurement , in principle, at the moment, almost all watches have these functions, but how high quality they are This is done by 13 kinds of sports modes, powerful 4-core architecture, NFC, battery life up to 36 hours, and most importantly, they can be used separately from the smartphone, since there is an eSIM connection. And the price will definitely shock you. Write in the comments, how much do you think the manufacturer wants for these hours? And now I’ll tell you how everything really is... Tube 897 Vivat to everyone. You are on the Benefit NET channel, my name is Sanya.
There are only quick reviews on the channel, which are always backed up by tests. I stream most of them online. There are many contests - the conditions of which are in the description. And now I will quickly talk about the Meizu Watch. Go.
Unpacking. Black box with a picture of a smart smart watch and a name. On the reverse side, the minimum number of specs in Chinese. Came crumpled in the corners. The box is made of very thick cardboard.
Opens easily. There is a smell of glue. Everything is beautifully laid inside, you can safely take it for a gift. The kit includes the Meizu watch itself, straps, a usb type-c cable, a user manual and a magnetic charger that magnetizes the watch to itself with a bang and plus the charging itself can be magnetically attached to a metal surface. The color palette differs not only in the straps themselves, but also in the color of the watch case, namely, there are two of them - black and gray.
Moving on to the watch itself. Outwardly, they are very identical to the Apple Watch, though without a wheel and a little larger in size. Minimalistic square design with rounded corners. The straps are very tactilely pleasant, they can be changed without difficulty. The dimensions of the watch itself are 46 x 38.4 mm and the thickness is 12.97 mm. Weight is 69g with straps.
They are felt on the hand and look bulky. The watch is made of aluminum alloy, perfectly assembled. On the body there are heart rate and SPO2 sensors , contacts for charging, speakers, a microphone, latches to unfasten the straps and a functional single side button that is pressed very tightly without backlash, while still merging with the body, which is very convenient. Go ahead. AMOLED screen with a diagonal of 1.78 inches, which is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 2.5D, which provides a resolution of 368 x 448 pixels, a density of 326 dpi and a brightness of 500 nits. In sunny weather, there is no difficulty in seeing everything you need on the display.
When raised, the backlight is triggered after 1 second, although not critical, but noticeable. You won't be able to see the time quickly. When you lower your hand back, they are not automatically blocked, the screen goes out after 5 seconds. The watch is based on Qualcomm's flagship Snapdragon Wear 4100 platform 12nm and 4-core.1 GB of RAM, 8 built-in. And now attention, the main drawback is the lack of a global version.
The watch can be fully used only in China and a couple more exceptions from around the world. I couldn't install third-party applications. It did not work to receive incoming calls either, although there is an answer to the call icon , but it is not clickable, so we are content that we can simply drop the call. But there is good news, you can call directly from the watch and dial the number. Despite the fact that there is a speaker and a microphone on the device, talking directly through it is not an option.
I did not find the gallery. Also, the promised function of photographing through the watch also does not work and there is no camera in the watch itself. It is possible to turn on music through the application on the watch. The chest strap is not connecting. The choice of dials is extensive and I will not say that they are all the same.
You can install your photo on the screensaver. The voice assistant does not respond to me, since I have not learned to speak Chinese yet. Anyway, if you go into the application itself with Aisi, she is ready to listen to me every other time. The ability to use an electronic SIM card is certainly very cool, but again, not in our country. The speaker is quite loud, on the street near passing cars you can hear what the interlocutor is saying.
The widgets inside can be changed. NFC and Meizu Pay were naturally not brought in for us either. Everything inside is rendered in accordance with Apple's design, by the way, you can look at Apple Wath reviews on my channel. The last one was on Aplle Watch 5, the link is in the upper right corner. Battery capacity 420 mAh.
Battery life up to 36 hours without recharging. There is also fast charging, in 15 minutes they scored 30% for me , which is very good, since they are enough for a day. Meizu Watch supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2. You can connect headphones and any devices with bluetooth support to the watch and everything works flawlessly. Wi-Fi is low-frequency, so it won't be super fast to download , by the way, the limit for Wi-Fi connection is 3 minutes, and bluetooth connects well with devices, it doesn't fall off.
The menu inside is very large, so I will not list it in full. Meizu Watch can track various types of activity. Among them: indoor and outdoor running, walking, elliptical trainer, cycling, table tennis, badminton, rock climbing, skipping rope and so on. Like everyone here, there is a function for monitoring oxygen in the blood, you need to turn it on manually, a function of constant monitoring of heart rate and sleep tracking. On board breathing exercises and a reminder to get up and move if you sit in one place.
There were no false positives. There are built-in Chinese applications, for example, you can install an application on your phone to download music and listen. GPS only works with a connected phone. Notifications for the entire time of use came 1 time, so I could not make sure if there were application icons and smilies, although I tried very hard. Multitasking is present in them.
The official website does not indicate anything about moisture protection, but the watch has a screen lock function for swimming. So you can bathe them. After my tests with water, everything is in order with them, the functionality has not been affected in any way. Speakers and microphone are not clogged. The watch app is called the Wear App.
Only available on android. There is no translation into Russian, but the coolest thing is that only the phrase “check the update” is here in our native language. Funnily wrong. There is a division into 4 tabs inside. The first is monitoring data about your activity and internal processes, + monitoring stress.
The second is a short report on your physical activity , how well you did sports. If you click on this icon, we will go to the activity tracking calendar. The next tab contains all possible watch faces. And the last one is the main settings. In the upper right corner there is an icon, by clicking on which you go to your personal account, if you can call it that, here you can indicate your age, gender, weight and height.
Well, at the end of the list is a firmware update. Of the minuses. It seems to me that I don't even need to talk. One of the biggest drawbacks is the lack of a global version. A chest strap cannot be connected further.
The main button is pressed tightly. There is no way to install a third party app. Yes, but NFC does not work for us. Calls are not accepted. SPO2 monitoring is not 24/7.
Connection to Wai Fai is limited. Well, for me personally, the dimensions of the watch itself are bulky. There is no gallery, like File Manager. The price tag, of course, is transcendental for them. The Apple Watch 3 38 mm is even cheaper.
$ 312 price for this watch on Ali. I attach the link if you are interested in looking. To summarize, the toy is not bad, but for such a price, I would prefer an apple. Let's hope that, nevertheless, for you and me, the version will be globalized and finished with the firmware. Very strange impressions after these hours, because they seem to be able to do a lot, but you can't really check anything.
The device is for the efforts of the manufacturer, yes, but it's not worth buying yet. Good luck, dear friends.
