It's worth it! 19

-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------

Update 12/01/2014 meanwhile I also Lifelog installed and am one hand enthusiastically what you so everything can aufzeichenen on movement patterns with the small part, on the other hand, it is also frightening. Driving works well, although one gets reflected in other movements times short car journeys. But all trips made certain date. The sleep tracking works now also, you have to adjust anything, everything goes by itself. The result after 3 nights, however inadequate, here you have also stages of sleep, while you are still online. In my Jawbone up24 yet understandable, since it is only by movement patterns, but also the online times are tracked. Each picture taken can be seen in his days Revue, great !! Unfortunately, it has also killed with the update to sleep tracking the Whatsapp notifications, about 20 news it creates an on tape. For now has a star deducted, but I still hope for an early update from the Update .... In addition to query the battery state of the smartphone no longer works by Smart Control app, also a factory restore and reinstallation was futile.

Update 23/11/2014 meanwhile, I have found that the speech recognition can be improved by setting extremely slowly in the App on in speech speed, now the telephony works quite well, but everything works very slowly in relation to Voice Control.

Furthermore, I regret to say that the screen is easily scratched. Despite most careful handling and storage of night, I have scratches, although during the day always pullover or similar. the band have covered.

I think it is already a little talc become when the voice app is even faster, it can even grow. Perhaps it is also time to read Whatsapp. I'm curious if there is something. One must not forget, however, the. To 13min Telephony 20% battery are used up already, for me every day is invite announced. Since you can track the battery level on the smartphone and a charge is completed in about 1 hour, can be easily integrated into the day, and vice versa, you can track the battery power of your smartphone on the wristband. Never walk again several times to the charging station, to see if the battery level is sufficient already. That's really great.

Update 11.19.2014 Today the Voice Control app has finally appeared. Man can thus be announce the time or date, which does not always work right away, the app often needs to start very long, if that is done the voice says -I then höre- but you should not even going to speak, but still has a wait for beep, then the band says the desired response and displays it on the display. In addition, you can declare what the weather is, but must specify the location with. The answer appears on the display. While the band explores the correct answer, there are sounds. You should now be able to make calls that does not work, but if you ask in advance for missed calls you will be asked if you want to be called back, you answered the question in the affirmative works of recall! The whole process takes but so its time. Read unread SMS I have not tested, Whatsapp is not supported. Setting the timer works very well, but it rings on my smartphone and it has been unable to stop the timer, only smartphone helped. Find smartphone and announcements battery level also works excellently. Let announce appointments works. The alarm clock can also be adjusted by command.

Conclusion: not as the yellow of the egg, the app is slow and often can only repeat the procedure, and 20 times in a row. The Sprachqualiät the announcement is also not particularly good. The name Talk has not (yet) earned the band. Meanwhile, no longer does the app, even after several installations and reboots only Repeat the process !!

I have the tape ordered directly from Sony, as it was available there. You will receive this Smart belt with 2 bracelets (large and small) and a charging cable to the USB port. A manual is not in, only one information, to download the app from the Play Goals. Who needs a guide she gets on the website of Sony.

The decor is very simple and self-explanatory about the Smart Band App. The compound is stable and everything not connects to a termination by itself. Was with Garmin unfortunately the case. I use the tape with a Sony Z1 Compact.

Opening the tailgate is slightly fiddly, a magnetic charging port would have been nice. Maybe successor.
Changing the belt is also tricky, but that does not make it so often. The closure of the bracelet seems not very stable, let's see how long does that. Only 2 metal pins inserted into the holes of the bracelet, without additional security!

I am thrilled by the handling. There can be messages from Apps view, which also receive messages on your phone for. B. Email, Whatsapp, SMS, quiz duel, calls, etc. This works perfectly only if the band just contact as out of reach, lost it works not and will not be submitted if the connection is established again. That's totally fine with me

So far there are not many apps for the band, but sufficient. One can, for example, date and calendar entries, save contacts, which can be called from the strip. Pause a media player and start again and adjust the volume, but songs before or rewind does not. It can be used only the Media Player is just getting started. In my case, for example Amazon or Audible music, others I have not tried. Furthermore, you can search be smart if sometimes misplaced. If you have misplaced the bracelet helps the smartphone app to find it, which I think is really good. It can display contact details or important information that you have stored. There is a bet Rapp with 3-day preview. Battery level of smartphone and smart belt, activity, world clock, camera shutter button, voice memo, Life Bookmark. Overall, however, there is only room for 9 Apps, who has saved, for example, already 8 contacts can only add an app.

The alarm clock is set in the smartphone and works by vibration, but it can also add a ring tone.
It can be set many alarms, also an advantage for Garminband.

The display can be read very good but is not illuminated. The screen color can be reversed. This is when the screen is not a touch screen, it can only plan type, if one has entspeert the display with the function button, which works great when you type something solid, it worked you get a feedback in the form of a mini vibration. Since this is an e-ink display is the resolution is not very high, but perfectly adequate.

The Lifelog App for tracking of all activities I have not been installed. Because I was still a Jawbone U24 use not relevant for me. I was interested in buying mainly to the notification functions and the rapid adoption of conversations. The call inspires me really, because the sound quality is very good.

What I have noticed, if not addressed on a message, from whatever reason, the information remains only 30 seconds. on the display, then it is gone forever, but does not bother me, will remain so in the Smartphone.
The band can be switched off completely. I use at night, saving battery.
The battery lasts me only a maximum of 2 days since I also use to make phone calls.
The band is very light and easy to carry wonderful night I got it from but.

Soon there is the Voice Control app, then it is called Talk deserve. So you can give voice commands.

So far with the band, no problem occurred everything runs as it should.
