Q-Band Q-68HR Accurate Health & Fitness Tracker Watch, 100 Hours Heart Rate Monitor, Bluetooth Activity Tracker, Sunlight Readable Scratch-Resistant Big Screen, Pedometer BandThis review is from: Q-Band Q-68HR Accurate Health & Fitness Tracker Watch, 100 Hours Heart Rate Monitor, Bluetooth Activity Tracker, Sunlight Readable Scratch-Resistant Big Screen, Pedometer Band (Misc.)
I have wanted a fitness tracker for a number of years now. This is not a well known brand but it seems to do the job fairly well. I say fairly well because I am not sure how accurate the step counts are. I wear a clip on one on the pocket of my pants and I wear this one on on my writst. Few weeks back I wore both while mowing the lawn. The clip on one counted 3,000 steps more than this did on my wrist. I tell you this so that you are aware that certain tasks won’t be counted.
The sleep feature on this is cool but I am not really too sure how it knows whether I am awake or a sleep or how it knows if the quality of sleep is light, heavy or REM.
I love the simple wristband but it is challenging to get it tight enough sometimes (in the dark) for the pulse to be able to work right. Speaking of the pulse feature. This is really cool and fairly accurate. The other day I have my pulse checkded as part of the screening process for donating plasma. Once it came up on their equipment I checked my fitness tracker and sure enough they both had the same number.
One more feature that is really handy to have is the notifications that pop up from my iPod. Since I have it connected it letts me know when I get a new email or message. It also reminds me to to take a break of an activity or that I have been not moving enough. The app that you are told to download is fairly basic and simple to use. It not only tells you your stats fro the day but you can look at your heistory as well.
As far as battery life goes, on a full charge I can wear this for a full week before I have to charge it if the pulse sensor is not acctive. If it is on constantly then the battery life is shortened by a few days.
One thing that I would most like to change is the charger. My preference would be to be able to use a micro USB to connect to it instead of the cheaply made clamshell style charger that is uses. It feels like ti will break in half at the hinge after too many times being opened and shut.
I give this a 4 out of 5 stars since it is good overall but needs some improvements.
