Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “HTC Grip GPS Fitness Tracker at MWC 2015”.
Hey guys, if leveled a virgin here at MWC 2015 in Barcelona – and this is a new HC grip – this is a first wearable device from HTC is done in partnership with under AMA and in plugs into the Under Armor record system, which already has a 130 million Users, but this is the first device that natively plugs into it. The big deal with this is it has GPS and it tracks. You runs it tracks. Your workouts and yes, city wants all the time I’ve tried on here in Barcelona, the first time I tried it. Actually, on both wrists in my knee, the class managed to snag my wrist and do a little bit of damage but hey. She says that they still okay on the final design of this.
I’M not an issue that I found immediately. Was that there’s no vertical orientation and so landscape inside interfaces in landscape and that pretty much caused you to wear it on the inside of your wrist, which might be just fine for most people? So, even though it’s a stiff device, it’s also rugged one. It’S waterproof! So you can go with you wherever you go uses a passive OLED display.
It’S a touch screen. It’S really fast and responsive HTC says that it gets up to 5 hours of battery life with GPS, enabled and two-and-a-half days without GPS. If you see also makes a big point of this being a standalone device, so it tracks your data tracks things like steps. These are my steps.
Somebody did them for me. It tracks the distance traveled calories consumed. I don’t know how it does it, but it calculates it for you and also sleep.
The other wraps are things like music controls which plugs into your phone. Once you get connected, there’s a calendar again, you need to have a connection to your phone and you can actually read notifications from your phone and even respond to them with pre canned responses. Once those things get hooked up, you can take a look at the weather. Again with the help of a phone – and you can set it along without the help of the phone, I really like the touchscreen – it’s really responsive. It’S really easy to use, however, this being a fitness device.
If you go out running in the rain and snow or any other moist conditions, wet hands are going to be an issue with the touchscreen, but in terms of tracking the big deal is it has GPS and there are two too many GPS devices like this. It’S priced at 199 dollars. It will be released only in the United States and available in the spring. They say: they’ll have a most pootie products by the end of the year. This one has been designed entirely by HTC Under Armour. It’S only wear is providing the software and the tracking, but in the future the designs are going to be collaborative between the two companies. So that’s our first look at HTC grip here at MWC 2015 in Barcelona, yeah .
