Tencent Digital (Compiled: Mi Ke) Fitbit Blaze is a product that has been positioned as a "super sports watch." Generally, Fitbit wants to make Blaze into an integrated wearable device that not only has powerful sports health tracking. Features, as well as features like smart watches.
At first glance, Blaze seems to look more like a tougher Apple Watch, and the Fitbit element is not obvious. However, after several weeks of trials, I discovered that Blaze is indeed a very good product. Although the price is a little expensive, it is very suitable for amateur runners or those who are just beginning to exercise.
design
Not so much a sports tracking device, Blaze is actually more like a smart watch. The Blaze is equipped with a 240-by-180-pixel 1.2-inch color display and uses a metal bezel and a rubber strap, which are still quite familiar to Fitbit users.
If you look at Blaze as a smart watch, Blaze can't really count the most beautiful products on the market today. It has neither the high-end feel of Huawei Watch or Moto 360 2 nor the beautiful design like Moto 360 Sport or Withings Activite Steel.
Blaze, however, is not as “ugly†as some other smart watches, such as Razer Nabu Watch. Sorry, this is just my personal opinion.
Like Apple Watch or Pebble Time Steel, Blaze's 1.2-inch display is not large, but the smartwatch screen is sufficient. When we want to see some information or text on the wrist, it is not too strenuous. Or hard.
For those who want to pursue a bit more sophisticated experience, Blaze also offers some customization options. First of all, we can replace leather or metal straps for Blaze, and we can also perform various digital interfaces or analog pointer interface changes at the dial position.
For convenience, I chose Blaze to provide a rubber strap by default, and this strap has also become my partner to wear most of the time. Of course, I also tried a metal strap, but it looks rather wonderful. Once again, even a friend who is not familiar with electronic products asked me if I was wearing an Apple Watch.
Blaze's screen is also significantly different from the previous Fitbit products. In the past, Fitbit products either had no screen or even a simple monochrome OLED display, and full-color touch screens are still very rare in Fitbit products.
Although Blaze doesn't have AMOLED displays that are more suitable for use on sports bracelets than other competitors, such as Microsoft's Band 2, they perform very well on screen colors and clarity.
At the same time, Blaze can also customize settings for different areas, including different colors and logos, including some key data, such as heart rate monitoring and the number of steps. The 240 x 180 pixel resolution basically ensures that text and pictures can be seen very easily.
Tracking and software
What I was most dissatisfied with Blaze was that I wanted to approach the design of the smart watch too much and made some unnecessary compromises in the tracking of the movement.
Fitbit Blaze looks more like a hybrid device that specializes in motion tracking, and when I tested the Motorola Moto 360 Sport before, the two encountered very similar problems.
First of all, Blaze is not waterproof. Although we can wear Blaze running in the rain, splashing water, and anti-sweat, Fitbit advises us not to wear Blaze while bathing or swimming.
And this is really tangled up for those who plan to wear Blaze for 7 x 24 hours. Although the rubber strap is waterproof, every time I inadvertently touch the top of Blaze, it wipes the water subconsciously, preventing the watch from entering the water causing unnecessary troubles and damages, and it is also more careful when wearing it on weekdays.
In addition, Blaze doesn't have built-in GPS, so for more accurate location tracking and distance data, you have to bring your smartphone while running or cycling. This is very troublesome for sports enthusiasts. It is important to know that running and sports are very light and that no one likes to run while carrying his own mobile phone.
For running amateurs or friends who are just starting out, Blaze is a tracker that is easy to get started with, or called a smart watch. In addition to the lack of GPS, Blaze supports basic tracking features such as hardware accelerometers, optical heart rate sensors, altimeters, and ambient light sensors. Blaze also supports Android and iOS smartphones.
I am an Android user and the smart phones used for testing are Nexus 5X and Huawei P9. It's easy to install apps and pairings. After fully charging Blaze with a dedicated charger and downloading Fitbit's app, turn on Bluetooth and follow the above series of tips to pair Blaze with your smartwatch step-by-step.
It can be said that Blaze's matching process is the simplest one I've ever used, and this is in stark contrast to the Jaybird Reign I've experienced before.
Blaze has its own dedicated system, which is different from most of the smart watches on the market today. Blaze can be operated through the touch screen. Although Fitbit still belongs to a third-party smart watch system and does not have as many App options as Android Wear or Apple Watch, it is still adequate for smart reminders and FitStar services.
With all our usual exercise programs and tracking data, including running, cycling, and strength training, Blaze can automatically detect changes and track multiple sports at the same time. And can be switched between different modes, such as when I start a certain exercise can be set manually, but also can rely on Blaze automatically switch after a period of exercise.
After pairing with a smart watch, Blaze is very accurate in tracking data for each sport. I used Blaze to compare with Microsoft's Band 2 and Basic Peak and found that basically all the results of the data are relatively close, and the error basically does not exceed 10 to 20. Even the heart rate data are exactly the same. The conclusion of the three different products in the heart rate monitoring data is consistent, which shows that the three products have maintained a very high standard.
Blaze did not have any abnormalities during sleep tracking. However, according to the tracking results, the advantage of my deep sleep time will be relatively short, especially at night, but basically does not have a great impact on the overall tracking results.
If equipped with a smart phone, Blaze's path and distance tracking results are also more accurate. For example, the distance I ran was about 5 kilometers. Blaze's data and Band 2's results were relatively small, and basically kept the same.
We can view the basic data directly on Blaze's screen, but for more detailed information, you have to use the smartphone's App. Fitbit's App is also a selling point. App can provide key information needed by most ordinary users, such as the number of steps, calorie consumption, and sleep time. At the same time, there are different data for specific sports, such as average heart rate, speed, and maximum speed. Another highlight of Fitbit's App is social and challenging features.
The App provides a "friend" mode that allows you to see other friends who are using Fitbit products and compare it with everyone. Although this function seems insignificant, it can be a great incentive for many people and even encourage us to do more exercise. If you can often overcome your friends, it is definitely a great sense of accomplishment.
The challenge mode has further increased the fun. We can send challenge goals to friends through the App, including some daily sports and special sports goals. This will also allow better comparisons among friends and improve the efficiency of sports.
There is also an adventure mode, which is very interesting for some more professional users. The adventure mode includes some special scenes such as the New York City Marathon and the beautiful resort park, and it can be used to locate and upload photos to complete their own adventure goals.
FitStar is another feature that helps users exercise and allows us to exercise more efficiently. The App is preset with a variety of training modes and contacts at different times within the specified time. The exercises include squats, push-ups, etc., and are more suitable for those who like to go to the gym.
The coolest thing is that the App can guide the action on the screen for each different action, not just for fitness enthusiasts. We can even use Blaze's help to improve both strength and endurance.
Intelligent features
In addition to the sports tracking function that sports fans care about, Blaze's smart features also left a deep impression on me. Blaze can display incoming calls and text messages as well as calendar reminders while controlling the music playback on smartphones. Although Blaze's notification reminder function was good at the beginning, I still found some problems with the passage of time.
For example, Blaze's notification always has a problem of delay, and it can't appear in time. Calendar reminders, often from smart phones, are always on the screen when they are about to happen or have been missed, and this task has long been done by smartphones.
Although Blaze looks like a smart watch, it does need to improve on smart features, especially the notification system I hope to be more advanced. In addition, third-party apps such as WhatsApp, Facebook, and Twitter inform Blaze that it is not yet compatible, including Android and iOS platforms, and hopes to improve in future upgrades.
Lifetime
Life is one of Fitbit Blaze's strengths. Other smart watches with color touch screens that I tested, including Moto 360 Sport and Microsoft Band 2, will last no more than two days.
In contrast, Blaze is definitely the top level, Blaze can be used continuously for 5 days after a single charge, and the intensity of use during my testing is not too low. Including each morning morning exercise, a full-day notification reminder, and the screen brightness set to the middle value.
Therefore, compared with most smart watches, Blaze's life is definitely a big advantage, of course, there is a problem that can only use Blaze dedicated charging base charging, can not be compatible with other products.
to sum up
If you're a runner or just running casually, Blaze is a reasonable choice. The addition of FitStar services and social elements can better promote our adherence to exercise. Blaze's custom screen interface is also one of the few highlights in motion tracking products. If you wear Blaze all day, you can display notifications and attract some entry-level users.
But if you are a sports fanatic, Blaze is not for you. Lack of GPS positioning, non-waterproofing, etc. will keep professional running enthusiasts or users who like to swim outside the door. Therefore Fitbit's Flex 2 is a better choice.
In addition, Blaze sells for 159.99 pounds (approximately RMB 1,320), which is still somewhat expensive for such an entry-level product. At the same price point, we can buy products such as the Garmin Vivosmart HR Plus with built-in GPS functionality. Sports bracelets with features similar to Blaze, such as Moov Now or Basis Peak, are cheaper.
