We went to the "Bird's Nest" and rode it eight times! Just to discuss how to choose a smart watch.

In fact, compared with ordinary watches, the biggest role of smart watches is to view some miscellaneous notices. Moving your wrist can replace watching the movements of your mobile phone. But then again, Apple Watch, which currently has the highest market share, only supports the iOS system, which has certain limitations. Compared with Android, the size of users using iPhone is still very different.

Such a big market can't be thrown away in vain, so major domestic mobile phone manufacturers are also eyeing the "fat" of smart wear, and have successively launched various smart watches. Compared with Apple Watch, low price, quite good experience and more diversified system provide people with a new "desire to buy".

But each watch is different, which makes friends who want to buy Android smart watches very confused. Don't worry, Ji brought four smart watches, and everything you care about is here!

The four watches we selected are representative: OPPO Watch, Huawei Watch GT2, Xiaomi Watch and Xiaomi Watch Color, which have their own characteristics in terms of power saving, fluency, application ecology and watch system. Both Xiaomi watches are very cost-effective, and Xiaomi watches are also equipped with Wear OS system, both of which support Mijia ecology; Huawei Watch GT2 is naturally a must-have for high-end people, while OPPO Watch is more popular with young people, and it is also equipped with an improved version of Android system.

In fact, people buy smart watches, a large part of which is to exercise and check their physical condition. We chose two projects for comparison. And in order to prevent compatibility problems, we all use our own mobile phones with our own watches.

First of all, the project we are preparing is bicycles, and the rules are simple. Ji led three tool men to set off at the same time, and the destination was a relatively obvious landmark "Beijing Olympic Building". Before you start, use four watches to open the cycling event, and then start. After arriving at the destination, check the trajectory map and kilometers of the watch and compare it with the kilometers marked on the map.

The rules are set, then make the whole thing public!

To this end, we specially moved out of the "Four Kings" on the bicycle lane to test the accuracy of positioning. In this way, Ji Guojun set off with three tools and finally arrived at his destination in about an hour.

"Four Heavenly Kings"

The distance recorded on OPPO Watch is 8.94 km, Huawei Watch GT 2 is 8.3 1 km, Xiaomi Watch is 8.48 km, and Xiaomi Watch Color is 8.67 km.

△ From left to right are OPPO Watch, Xiaomi Watch Color, Xiaomi Watch and Huawei Watch GT2.

Well, these four data are a little different. Let's open the map of Gaud and have a look.

The distance recorded on the map of Gaode is 8.3 kilometers, and the periphery of the Bird's Nest is about one kilometer. We rode around the Bird's Nest for about eight times!

In addition, from the perspective of movement trajectory, the record of Huawei Watch is the closest among these sets, followed by Xiaomi Watch, Xiaomi Watch Color and OPPO Watch; ; It is worth mentioning that the heat consumption of these watches is very different, and the algorithm may be different.

The second item of our "competition" is to choose heart rate as the comparison item.

The rules are relatively simple. One person wears each watch in turn, and the standard is to find the watch with obvious gap by taking the majority.

Let's find a good fruit chick to be a "tool man" in this competition.

It can be seen that in the heart rate detection, these four watches are actually similar, and they are all maintained at around 92, with little difference; And on the Xiaomi watch, the functions of pressure detection and body energy detection are also expanded by using the heart rate function.

A good smart watch also needs a good experience, and fluency and ease of use are what we really need. We won't do "comparison" on the system. After all, how do you say this thing? Radish and vegetables have their own tastes, and we can't say whether they are good or bad. Let's talk about these products separately.

The first is OPPO Watch, which entered the smart watch circle late. As a latecomer, OPPO can be said to have handed over a very good answer sheet. First of all, it uses the "magic change" of Android. Compared with Wear OS, which is half dead, and RTOS, which needs to be modified by itself but is still stuck, OPPO has chosen a path that no one has taken.

△ The picture shows the OPPO watch.

Of course, there are also shortcomings, that is, everything has been subverted, and there is very little software in the watch store from the beginning. However, the advantages are also very obvious. The overall fluency is the best among the four watches, including various over-animated and long-life dual systems, independent use and so on.

Let's talk about the Xiaomi watch equipped with Wear OS. The original Wear OS is actually not easy to use. Let's not talk about bugs flying all over the sky. It is still a closed source system, and others have no right to modify it, so it is still half dead. This time, Xiaomi found Google, obtained the modification permission of Wear OS, and it was easier to get started. The control of Xiaomi Smart Home also made it more competitive.

△ The picture shows Xiaomi Watch.

Due to the adoption of Wear OS, it has a good performance in application ecology. After all, Wear OS has been used for so many years, such as some WeChat, Didi, maps and so on. On the whole, it has strong interoperability with watches and relies on mobile phones.

Two watches, such as Xiaomi Watch Color and Huawei Watch GT2, use the modified RTOS system: LIte OS and MIUI system. Both watches have several characteristics: they can't connect to WIFI, can't make phone calls, and have no application market, that is, they can't install applications.

△ The picture shows the color of Xiaomi watch.

To put it bluntly, these two watches are similar to big hand rings, but the color of Xiaomi watch can be controlled by Xiao Ai.

Of course, since it is a "big hand ring", it naturally has an advantage in power, and both of them can get a battery life of 14 days or more under extreme conditions.

In addition, smart watches are definitely different from traditional watches in appearance. Traditional watches can make various appearances, while smart watches are neither square nor round. These four watches are also square and round, so I won't make some comparisons. Here I only show you the black edge at an oblique angle of 45.

Among the four watches, OPPO watch uses a curved screen, which can cover the black edge well under any circumstances.

OPPO Watch and Xiaomi Watch may not have obvious black edges due to workmanship and painting; The color of Xiaomi watch cleverly adds a time scale on the black side of the dial, which will not be so obvious if it is not intentionally seen; But Huawei watch GT2 is a bit. ......

Smart watches can change the dial at will, so that we don't have to look at a dial every day and have aesthetic fatigue, which is definitely a big advantage.

The most personalized dial is definitely Xiaomi. Both watches have many personalized dials, and they are both free. There are only more than 30 kinds of dials of OPPO Watch, but the good thing is that they are all officially produced, the quality is definitely guaranteed, and the dials also support monthly updates.

As for Huawei watch GT2 ... There are quite a lot of dials, which are also quite expensive.

For today's intelligent age, the Internet of Everything is the ultimate goal. Watches have long been "targeted" by major manufacturers. From smart watches to now, it has been improving, but all this has stopped with the stagnation of Wear OS.

Until now, after OPPO smart wear, it has also given major manufacturers a new idea, that is, putting Android in watches, but the problem is also obvious, and the sacrifice is battery life. Under the moderate use of OPPO Watch in one day, the battery life will be around 30%. About electricity. This is a good choice for friends who pay attention to fluency and don't pay attention to endurance and accuracy; Xiaomi Watch can find a balance between fluency and connectivity, and the price of 1 199 is really to make friends.

There is nothing to say about the color of Xiaomi watch. The ultimate cost-effective player 749 can get a terminal to control Xiaomi's smart home by wrist, and can also measure pressure, energy and bicycle. The people who are most suitable for Huawei Watch GT2 should be some successful people. After all, Huawei's business model can't be learned by others.
