In recent years, smart wearable devices have become more and more popular, basically becoming a necessity for young people’s life. And the biggest demand is smart bracelets and smart watches. The functions and prices of the two are different. How to choose?
I. The difference between a smart watch and a smart bracelet
Smart bracelet: As the name implies, first of all, it is a bracelet, which must be light and compact in shape. It uses the induction chip in the bracelet to collect human body information and carry out health monitoring. It has functions such as exercise pedometer, sleep monitoring, heart rate monitoring, fall judgment, sedentary reminder and so on. It can be connected to the mobile phone through Bluetooth to transmit health data and facilitate daily monitoring.
Smart watch: First of all, it is a watch with the shape of an ordinary watch and a relatively large dial. Of course, the weight is larger than that of the bracelet. Smart watches use internal intelligent systems to synchronize phone calls, messages, photos, music, etc. in mobile phones to watches through Bluetooth synchronization. Most smart watches also need to be connected to mobile phones, and some can be plugged into mobile phone cards, which is equivalent to a watch mobile phone.
In fact, with the development of smart devices in recent years, the functions of smart bracelets and smart watches are getting closer and closer. Many models of bracelets are also equipped with screens, which can display some text messages and WeChat, and can be used as Bluetooth headphones to make calls. Of course, these functions can’t be compared with smart watches. Smallness and lightness are the advantages of smart bracelets, and high-endness is the advantage of smart watches. How to choose depends on everyone’s needs.
If you don’t have too many requirements for high performance, you just want to experience smart wearable devices, simply record and view some sports health data, see the time, and like lightweight devices. Just choose a relatively cheap smart bracelet.
If you want to buy a watch substitute, there are many requirements for device interaction functions, especially for business people with more phone calls and WeChat. It is definitely the best choice to buy a fully functional smart watch.

In view of the above-mentioned use needs, the shopping bracelet is mainly based on this principle: lightness first, as long as the work can be used.
Heart rate monitoring, timing alarm clock, ultra-long battery life, sleep monitoring, exercise mode, sedentary reminder, message reminders are all necessary basic functions. Of course, NFC, blood oxygen monitoring and voice control functions are the better. In terms of selection, there are many functions at the same price.

In addition to looking at the time, smart watches also have two functions: receiving phone calls, text messages, WeChat from mobile phones, listening to music, reading pictures, wireless payment and other smartphones; tracking health status directly through the health monitoring chip and software of smart watches.
The smart watch is powerful, and the hybrid watch has a longer battery life, which is a good choice. In addition, the level of detail of notification, battery life, shape style, waterproof performance, device compatibility, sound quality and other functions are also important considerations.
