- Why a fitness tracker?
I’m not that into sports. I really need someone to remind me – whether it’s to get more activity or drink more water. I’ve always wanted to try a fitness tracker.
Look and Comfort
You have to wear the bracelet all day long to get the best results. Before purchasing, you’ll need to get the correct size fitted. The UP24s look is pretty good, especially when compared to other similar gadgets. The design, which is made of hypoallergenic TPU-rubber is wearable. It looks chic if you combine it with other bracelets.
Usability
The usability seems to be very simple. After unpacking it, I installed the app. You can synchronize the gadget with only one click via Bluetooth. Afterwards, I signed in and set my goals. The settings are self-explanatory and you can control the gadget via phone. The battery lasts for about 10-12 days and charging it takes about 2 hours. You can charge it with a USB-Adapter. The data transfer functions with Bluetooth.
Sleep Analysis
In this regard, this product is perfect for me. It doesn’t matter if I sleep 4,6,10 or 12 hours – if it’s cold or warm, dark or not. I never feel refreshed when waking up. My mother often told me to get a sleep tracker that would wake me up gently. I didn’t want to believe that this would work, but it actually does. You have to specify when you normally wake up. During the week I get up at 6am within a range of 30 minutes. The bracelet vibrates a little so that you will wake up slowly. I only had headaches once. I think I will keep using this gadget thanks to this feature.
Food Tracking
You can log your meals easily by entering the food type or scanning it. The smart coach tells you how healthy your nutrition intake is. I did not use this function regularly, as I don’t want to lose weight or change my diet.My conclusion
It’s a good way to keep you motivated. The gadget doesn’t make you sporty or more healthy by default. It will simply remind you to do something and that’s cool in itself. I also think that the wireless connection is very good and the app is easy to use. I also like that it doesn’t have a huge display. What I didn’t like is that the gadget couldn’t count all the stairs I use at work. Despite this, I’d still recommend the UP24.
