if you are conscious about your body and you are into fitness exercises and activities,
you might probably think to get a tracker gadget that will let you monitor your time your heart rate
as well as your workouts and that is what Willful smartwatch sw-025 will provide for you,
or if you are into fitness and you want something very basic non-bluetooth,
Willful fitness tracker and pedometer sw-308 is one of the best sellers among fitness trackers and pedometers.
in this video we're going to talk about Willful sw-308 pedometer and Willful sw-025 fitness tracker.
and we will go through all the things such as the specifications, features, pros and cons,
and everything that you need to know about it before you decide whether you want to buy it or not.
the first impression after unpack: it doesn't feel cheap, I am pretty impressed with the quality,
nice rectangular curved screen looks very premium with the nice finish on the side and the bottom,
and it's got that Apple watch look and it's completely splash proof weatherproof and waterproof.
we got here the sensors at the bottom and the magnetic charge pins for the charging port,
and it comes with a dedicated charging usb cable with the magnetic pins on the one end,
and the standard USB plug at the other end.
with a solid body and a sturdy build quality, the Willful smartwatch also comes with a variety of colors,
including blue, white, pink and black.
as the body is rectangular the display screen underneath is square,
which gives the impression of the extra space of the corners as you can see.
I'm okay with it. let me know what you think in the comments below.
there's no buttons on this side and it hasn't got a touch screen,
however all the functions and features are controllable with the circle button at the bottom of the watch face
for clarification, a short press lets you navigate through the screens,
and the long press gets you into an advanced functions.
the fitness tracker is compatible with most smartphones with bluetooth 4.0 or higher,
and it's suitable to use with android 4.4 or higher or apple ios 8.0 or higher.
this watch using a dedicated app called VeriFitPro which is compatible with both android and ios for iphone.
the Willful sw-025 has got a pretty good list of features;
you can track several exercises as it has 11 sport modes,
and it is: an outdoor walk, indoor walk, it's an outdoor run and indoor run,
it's outdoor cycling and indoor cycling, it's hiking, yoga,
it's a cross trainer or elliptical machine, a rower,
and the last one it's called other which is actually designed for weight lifting.
it hasn't got an automatic exercise detection
so before exercising you'll have to switch the exercise tracker manually,
however it does detect when you sleep and when you wake up, so it will catch your full sleeping pattern.
you can pick up to three of your favorite exercises to have a quick access to them from the watch.
I got here outdoor walk, indoor cycling and the weightlifting.
to elevate your style and the aesthetic of your watch the Willful offers some degree of customization,
as it features three dial settings.
so here we got two sports dials and one classic dial. unfortunately you can't download any new dials and you can't upload your own bitmaps for more personal customization,
as for example you can do in Apple watch. I'm okay with it. let me know what you think in the comments below.
the wrist strap has a smooth texture so that it fits and rests comfy on the wrist without irritation.
it can be replaced for any 22 millimeters wrist strap but it's obviously up to your personal preference.
another feature the Willful smartwatch offers is a heart rate measurement. heart rate is divided here by five heart rate zones.
these zones are fully customizable, they depend on personal preferences and can be adjusted via the app.
smartwatch has got a relax guide which takes about one to three minutes of abdominal breathing exercise.
at busy hours it helps to relax and regain your inner balance.
it could be useful with yoga or meditation or with abdominal breathing that allows you and your body to relax and work more effectively and efficiently with more focus.
okay, let's try it: inhale...
...and exhale...
...an inhale....
...and exhale.
not only is the smartwatch suitable for men,
but it also adds exclusive features for women who wants to keep track of their menstrual cycle,
all you need to do is enter and set your menstrual details in the app on this device,
and the smartwatch takes care of the rest by notifying you about the next menstrual cycle beforehand.
in sw-025 every time you receive a notification, like a call, sms, app message from facebook, twitter or whatsapp,
instagram etc, it vibrates to alert you to avoid missing any important news.
the notifications for incoming calls are supported, you are able to reject the incoming call,
in addition it offers sedentary reminder, alarm clock, stopwatch and also a non-disturb mode,
which mutes all calls and alerts notifications and basically any notification on your smartwatch.
as for battery life you should have about 7 to 10 days of battery life between the charges.
in standalone mode the battery should last you up to one month.
full charge takes about one and a half hour.
and that's the Willful fitness pedometer sw-308 and this is one of the best sellers among cheap pedometers wristbands.
it is one of the few that can do without bluetooth and a smartphone connection.
most other fitness bracelets can only be configured with the help of a smartphone app,
unlike in this Willful pedometer, where everything can be configured on a small touch screen without bluetooth,
without any smartphone and without any app.
the tracker sits in a flexible bracelet made of TPU material.
the bracelet is available in white, pink, turquoise and black.
it can be adjusted between 6 and 9 inch wrist circumference which means it is suitable for the children,
however for small children between 4 and 6 years old this device is a little bit too large
making the bracelet too wide for the little wrists.
the initial setup is pretty straightforward,
first, you have to identify the round circle that's the touch button,
same as with the willful sw-025 presented earlier in this video, a short press of the button allows you to navigate between the screens,
and the long press gets you into an advanced menu.
with a simple touch of a button you can navigate between the functions, which is: time and date, steps, distance walked, calories burned,
sleep monitor and the settings.
at night all the activity data such as steps, calories and distance are automatically reset to zero,
that happens at every midnight.
the Willful pedometer is splash proof and weatherproof, you can wear it when you're washing your hands, get in the shower or in the rain.
the charging time is relatively short the first charge took us about one hour until the pedometer was fully charged.
we've been testing the Willful fitness pedometer for about seven days now and the battery is still holding well.
the USB charging port is located at the top of the device.
you'll need to take off the wristband to gain access to the usb
you could charge it via computer power bank or any device which got usb 2.0 and higher.
how accurate is it? I must say, the steps are not counted with hundred percent accuracy,
but okay when working normally.
we did a couple of tests where we counted them and cross check with the Willful sw-025 presented earlier in this video,
and there was a slight difference between the step counts
however, it doesn't count normal hand movements for example when typing on a keyboard or cooking,
so you are safe on this side.
normal hand movements and driving do not distort the step count results.
no problem when driving a car either.
we drove a bumpy road by car and the fitness bracelet did not count any steps, which is good,
but there was a slight issue when cycling.
yeah we tested willful pedometer while cycling and cross checked the number of steps with the other Willful fitness tracker,
and here we identified some weakness.
of course even on a push bike you are in motion but this behavior makes the device a bit inaccurate
so it's not a great option for the cyclists.
in this case i would rather recommend the sw-025 discussed earlier in this video.
in a summary, the willful fitness pedometer is one of the few that can be used without an app, bluetooth connection and a smartphone,
it wears comfy on the wrist and counts steps pretty well and it's suitable for both men and women of all age,
and most importantly it's suitable for the children.
it's a solid fitness bracelet at a great price and if you're planning to pick this one there's an Amazon link in the video description.
with so many similar devices currently available on the market,
what this willful fitness trackers is the simplicity and the attractive price,
this is something which helps this product to stand out
and these are great and cheap alternatives to a high-end manufacturers like Samsung and Apple.
I think that both fitness trackers presented today are a great buy
with loads of features dedicated to people who want a healthier lifestyle while being on a proper schedule.
