Many people nowadays buy smartwatches or smartbands because of their multiple uses. Thanks to them we can much more easily check our heart rate, but also pulse or even sleep rhythm. Such devices have recently replaced our watches, therefore, more and more convince us with modern functions.
Smartband is a device that will be useful mainly for athletes and active people. It has functions such as stopwatch or GPS, thanks to which we can precisely check, for example, our cycling route. Smartband allows also for precise counting of steps and measuring pulse during exercise. This is very important, especially for interval training. Many smartbands will also help us to calm down or record our cycle
All this information will be sent automatically to the phone, thanks to the application configured with our band. Our sports scores are also recorded there, which motivates us to work out even more. Smartbands nowadays can also inform us about a meeting, remind us to drink water or breathe evenly. Notifications such as text messages or massenger messages also come to them.
Smartwatch, in turn, has also the ability to measure steps or read notifications, but in addition we can also write to them. Of course, both devices will show us the time or the current weather, but the smartwatch has slightly more functions. You can use it to make a phone call or answer a call
Many smartwatches on the market even allow you to have a conversation without taking out your phone or browse your e-mail.
