Misfit Ray Review

[ad_1]

For the release of its new smart health connected bracelet, Misfit unveils the alliance between design and autonomy. It remains to be seen if the embedded technology and the application make the Ray an object to possess absolutely. The answer in this Review!

Installation:

A simple and uncluttered packaging with the colors of the bracelet chosen, dimensions adapted to the content, easy opening. The first impression is good and the marketing has done its job!

Inside the box we discover first the smart health connected bracelet, then the instructions and the 3 batteries provided for the operation of the ray.

Getting started is easy, we insert the batteries by unscrewing one side of the bracelet and install the Misfit application on his phone. After activating his Bluetooth and smart health connected his bracelet to the app, all you have to do is play sports !!

Design and Hardware:

I chose to Review the sport model with its cylindrical shape and its plastic strap resistant and very pleasant.

It is clear that the brand wanted to give importance to design and less functional. Indeed, the Ray is devoid of screen and its multicolored LED that can be alerted throughout the day. Very thin and discreet it seems that the Ray is targeting a more feminine clientele .. yet I find it perfectly suited to the male genre with its dark and metallic color.

This bracelet "jewelry" is quickly forgotten and adapts to other accessories such as a watch for example. Moreover its waterproof side (50 meters deep) allows to keep it daily on his wrist even in summer during a swimming pool afternoon!

Autonomy issue we do not lie, the batteries are effective, the LED changes color and attracts the eye and curiosity of our entourage.

Features:

The bracelet captures daytime activity with steps, kilometers traveled, activity time and calories burned. All this gives you points to reach your daily goals! The Misfit Ray has a 3-axis accelerometer, but negative point, no heart sensor.

However, it has a vibrator that will be happy to wake you in the morning or to warn you when you do not move enough on a given period. No feigners here! I wake up for a month thanks to this technology and it's still a lot nicer than a cellphone ring!

My regret vis-à-vis the Ray is an analysis of sleep not always accurate (especially that of Saturday night …), because it tends to focus too much on the alarm clock programmed by the bracelet. So to see for an improvement of this system which remains still practical and faithful on the data of the week with the phases of light and deep sleep.

 

The Link application:

I hooked the design of the Link application available on iOS and Android which remains simple and very intuitive with the ability to change the theme in dark / light.

The reception is summarized by statistics presented in the form of curves or diagrams, which can be analyzed on the day, the week or the month. There are therefore its activity curves, sleep and weight!

By scrolling, we discover a description of the activities of the day which, I think, are not necessarily very faithful to the reality .. A point to improve in the next version.

The social network side was not used for me (yes I have no friends and then?), But can be compared to other users of a misfit smart health smart health connected object.

Finally the application also allows us to connect our camera or change music with tapping on the bracelet. For this you need to install a free extension available on the blinds.

My opinion on MisFit Ray:

I really enjoyed testing this little bracelet very design, discreet and practical. The data is mostly correct, the battery life is excellent and the vibrator is very appreciated. Perfectly designed for both sports and fashion accessories, the misfit ray meets the expectations of a very good quality / price bracelet and aimed at a curious clientele with regard to smart health connected objects.

I do not necessarily recommend it to fans of extra-specific data who are looking for excellence in sports. For others, do not wait!
