Xiaomi Redmi Watch Review Takfars


The Redmi Watch is Xiaomi’s latest economic smartwatch. This $ 55 watch offers features such as heart rate sensor, sleep sensor and GPS in the form of classic watches and is water resistant.

Designing

The Redmi Watch is a beauty device and one of the most attractive economic watches on the market. The white color of the body and strap of this watch has given it a wonderful look. Xiaomi has also offered this watch in two colors, blue and black, with a green strap. The white color and body design of this watch are very similar to the Apple Watch, and if you look at these two watches from a distance, it will be difficult to distinguish them.

However, the Redmi Watch also has its own design elements. The curved design of the straps of this watch is more eye-catching and practical compared to most sports watches on the market, and these straps are easily integrated with the body and can be easily removed from it. To separate the straps, simply press the button below the strap and pull the strap.

The sides of the watch body have a smooth and smooth design and a large button on the right side. This button is made of plastic and its color is gold, but its appearance is similar to metal buttons.


The watch display is covered by 2.5-dimensional glass, which integrates seamlessly with the body of the watch with its curved design. The watch heart rate sensor is also located in a compartment under the watch and below it are two pins for charging the watch.

The Redmi Watch is 34 mm wide and 48 mm in diameter and is not a large watch in this respect. However, there is no larger version of this watch and Xiaomi has offered this product only in one size. This watch is also water resistant and you can immerse it to a depth of 5 meters.

In general, Xiaomi Redmi Watch is a beautiful and attractive product, and despite the use of simple materials, it has a luxurious and similar look to expensive watches.


screen

The Redmi Watch uses a 1.4-inch LCD screen (IPS) with a resolution of 320 x 320 pixels. Due to its square shape, this screen does not completely occupy the space on the front of the watch and its black edges are slightly thicker at the bottom. The screen also lacks curved edges, which is usually not a big deal unless the watch screen is square and the edges are too large.

The image quality of this screen is acceptable compared to the price of the watch. However, the colors are not very bright and vivid, and this problem is especially visible compared to the screen of other watches. The viewing angle of this screen is not as good as the old panels, but it has the minimum required quality. Normal contrast and high levels of black are major problems with LCD panels, which is why black background watches do not blend well with the black edges of the watch.


The brightness of the screen is normal, but the contents of the screen are well visible in the sun, and the clock has performed well in this regard. The clock display also supports automatic brightness adjustment. Currently the main problem of this screen is the lack of support for the screen feature is always on. The touch screen of the watch is deactivated when the screen is turned off, so it is not possible to turn on the phone by touching it. The only way to turn on the clock is by raising your hand or pressing the side button.

The ability to raise the hand to turn on the watch is not usually enabled, and the same is true for turning it off by lowering the hand. Sometimes the clock turns on snugly without raising its hand. This problem will most likely be fixed with the release of the next update.

The last problem with the screen is the delay in turning it on. This problem can be seen even when you use the side button of the watch. This is not a big problem in itself, but the lack of support for the always-on screen makes this problem even more apparent.


System and user interface

The Xiaomi Redmi Watch has a simple user interface and is very easy to use. You can swipe down from the main screen to enter the notifications area, and swipe up to access the Control Center. You can also swipe left and right to search for the heart rate sensor, sleep tracker, weather widget, activity tracker, and music player.

Pressing the side buttons of the watch also launches an application that allows you to select the capabilities of the watch. In addition to the above mentioned features, this application has features such as breathing exercises, compass, barometer, alarm, timer, stopwatch, flashlight (the screen turns white), phone tracker (your phone will sound when connected to the watch) Makes available.

The Redmi Watch interface is not very smooth and there is no transition animation in the entry and exit of widgets. However, this user interface is highly responsive and very easy and enjoyable to work with, unlike many other smartwatches.

As expected, it is possible to send phone notifications on this smartwatch. To do this, you must first select which application displays its notifications on the watch. However, these notifications are completely one-way in relation to the watch, and interaction or rejection of the notifications on the phone does not prevent it from being displayed on the watch, and you must manually reject them on the watch. Since this watch does not support any applications, the only way to interact with notifications is to read them.


The Xiaomi Redmi Watch is not expensive, and this is perhaps the most important reason why it does not support third-party applications. However, this is not a big problem considering the price of the watch. To use the watch, you must first install the Xiaomi Wear app on your smartphone. This application takes care of all the tasks of the watch and collects fitness information. This app informs you about things like the number of steps, calories burned, exercise history, sleep rate, heart rate and also how long you stand.

This app is where you can download new watches for the watch. Xiaomi has done a great job in this regard and has offered several watches for this watch. There are countless amazing options in this area and this watch offers some of the best watches among all wearable gadgets. In addition, the Xiaomi VerApp app has a good design and supports many other features.

Unfortunately, the Redmi Watch can only store 5 watches and 2 of these watches cannot be removed at all. As a result, you can only add 3 watches to the watch. However, Xiaomi has added a feature to this watch that allows you to download and install new watches on the watch. Thanks to this feature, the system automatically deletes previous features without asking for approval.

The only problem with Redmi Watch watches is their installation speed. Most watches of this watch are less than 1 MB in size, but the transfer of these watches takes about 80 seconds and it is not possible to use it in this distance.


Activity Tracker

Redmi Watch is capable of tracking sports such as running, cycling, walking, mountaineering and swimming. However, this watch does not have the ability to automatically track these sports except for walking, and to use this feature, you must first select the activity you want.

Internal GPS makes working hours easier for tracking outdoor activities. Connecting this GPS takes about 30 seconds and is disabled upon entering the building. You can use the tracking capabilities of this watch outdoors without the need for a phone. However, the Redmi Watch does not have the ability to play music, although this is understandable given its price.

This smartwatch is also equipped with a heart rate sensor that is not able to continuously track the heart rate and only does so at different intervals. The minimum heart rate tracking time is 1 minute. However, the use of this watch is not recommended for medical purposes because most heart rate monitors in smart watches have low accuracy.

This problem is more pronounced with the Redmi Watch sleep tracker. Unfortunately, the sleep tracker on this watch is not accurate enough and provides incorrect information. The watch also does not support a blood pressure monitor, although most competing smartwatches use this feature.


Battery

The battery life of the Redmi Watch is 10 days if used standard. However, heavy use of this watch reduces its battery life by up to 5 days. This amount of battery is very suitable compared to other smart watches that need daily charging. However, you can increase the battery life by changing the clock settings and disabling some of its features. Overall, the battery life of this watch is good and acceptable.

The watch charger that comes with it has the same good design as the watch itself. After connecting the charger to the watch, the amount of battery and time is displayed on the screen. Lack of always-on screen support disables this feature, and you must constantly press the side button to use it.


Conclusion

Xiaomi Redmi Watch is an attractive and well-made watch and its body is made of quality materials. The large screen of this watch distinguishes it among a sea of ​​wearable gadgets. The user interface of this watch is very simple and it is very easy to work with. The watch also supports an extraordinary number of watches.

The downside of this watch is its fitness tracker. The number of sports that this watch can track is limited, and the watch does not support blood pressure tracker and advanced heart rate tracker. The sleep tracker of this watch is also one of its main weaknesses. Another problem with this watch is the lack of support for the always-on screen.

The Redmi Watch is only $ 55, but it is not the cheapest smartwatch on the market. The Riley smartwatch offers more features at a lower price. If you are looking for a watch that, in addition to a different look, is reasonably priced and supports iPhones, the Xiaomi Redmi Watch could be the right choice for you. Otherwise, the Riley Watch smartwatch will be a better and cheaper option.

What is NFT? And what impact does it have on the human future?

Nothing can make you think like a blast of news about the China Bloc. Even when we all thought we almost knew what was going on, the founder of Twitter sold his autograph tweet as NFT. With all these interpretations, you may be asking yourself: What is NFT now? Well, let’s start with the basics: Non-fungible token. Nothing was clearer True, “irreplaceable” more or less means that these NFTs are unique and cannot be replaced by anything else. For example, bitcoin is flexible – trade one bitcoin with another bitcoin and you will end up with exactly the same thing again. On the other hand, a credit card is completely unique and therefore irreplaceable, and if you trade it with another card, you will have something completely different. How do NFTs work? At the comprehensive level, most NFTs are part of the atrium blockchain. Atrium is an encrypted currency, such as bitcoin or dogecoin, but its blockchain also supports these NFTs and stores additional information that makes them diffe...
