Ozaki O! Fitness - the cheapest chest heart rate monitor

    Concluding a small series of cheap heart rate monitors, today we will briefly tell you about the Ozaki model. She has a number of advantages.



    Firstly, the price. To date, even having studied Aliexpress, it was not possible to find the Bluetooth Smart bib with a price and parameters comparable ( 819 rubles ). Plus, all cheap heart rate monitors from China have a “cast” shape, here the sensor is separate - the belt is separate.



    In other words, if the belt sooner or later becomes unusable, it can be replaced by saving the sensor.

    By its design, Ozaki is understandable: it is an oval-shaped gadget that works from the "Circus", synchronizing with smartphones using Bluetooth Smart. And this also has, let’s say, “hidden meaning”.

    For ios

    In general, the Ozaki company positions itself as the creator of gadgets for girls: what did they do to control the course of pregnancy, that now the heart rate monitor is positioned as a gadget that helps you lose weight. Actually the native application in the AppStore is called FatBurn .



    At the same time, the company for some reason does not defiantly make Android applications. Native software is made quite brightly, playfully, somewhat pedantically: the registration process is very consistent. Here, for example, are just a few steps.



    In general, every step until the heart rate monitor is on your chest and connects to your smartphone, you are accompanied by kind tips and a proposal to send data to Apple Health.



    At the same time, voice prompts during the training are attached, but ... Unfortunately, the application is not currently localized. You can put up with this, because the basic information is all the same in numbers: there will be a step counter, distance, calories burned.

    Android

    With Android smartphones, Ozaki is also, of course, compatible, and will work with any software familiar to you. We connected it to Endomondo. In this case, it works like a regular heart rate monitor.

    In terms of accuracy - no complaints. Within half an hour of walks back and forth, having Fitbit Ionic as a means of comparison, the maximum discrepancy in both directions is from 1 to 4 units.


    The heart rate monitor is made quite well. The belt is made of fabric, it is soft and elastic.



    The mounts, although not deeply recessed, do not cause any complaints: the construction is reliably connected with the help of “rivets”.



    The only thing: connecting it “without a chest” does not work. In order for the heart rate monitor to connect with the smartphone, you need to wear a belt, while it is advisable, of course, to start moving.

    We must also pay tribute to the fact that for its price tag, it is packed very, very dignified: The price tag



    , as we wrote above, is 819 rubles. Moreover, if you pay for the goods directly on the site, then with the OZAKIWE code , it will cost 600 rubles until May 20 of this year.
