Quasi-Athlete-class watches, Garmin (Fortune) Forerunner 735XT Triathlon Sports Watches Reviews

In front of you

The first contact with the Garmin brand was around 2003; for a long time in memory, Garmin's impression was that this is an unusually professional brand in GPS, and the brand means high quality.

With more outdoor play in recent years, the understanding of this brand has gradually expanded into a brand that is very professional in outdoor electronic equipment and electronic sports equipment. Not only is R&D strength outstanding, but the product is also known for its high performance. The fenix 3 series is a wave of purchases in the past two years. Among the daily sports equipment, the shooting rate is extremely high.

As a popular comprehensive sports event in the world, since the millennium after becoming an Olympics event, after several sessions of rendering, the popularity of the people in the country has risen rapidly; even many friends who have run around have gradually begun to play with iron. Third, and in the amateur circle, the scores are good.

For those who love sports, especially those who exercise outdoors, having a GPS equipped with robust and accurate motion information can be said to be a dream, especially when the electronic equipment is still available. Monitoring of sports patterns; this monitoring provides users with more comprehensive, accurate, and intuitive data so that users can have a clearer picture of current conditions and future improvements after the exercise process and exercise. Clear understanding and consideration.

When Aunt Zhang's public appraisal channel applied for Garmin evaluation qualifications, it was not reported. After all, there were too many bulls hidden here, and all types were guarded. In such a situation, when you receive a notification, it can be said to be an "unusual surprise"....... This kind of surprise hasn't passed for quite a long time. After all, a programmatic day needs such an occasional surprise!

As part of Zhang Aunt’s community, although it’s not very professional in evaluating this product (PS: Of course, I’m also sure that most users, or buyers, like me, just know about these electronic digital devices and it’s far from Arrived or familiar with), it does not matter, then take a look at the protagonist close to the daily user's perspective - Garmin forerunner 735XT iron three optical heart rate watch

So since it is measured from the perspective of ordinary users, everything is simple and complex. The structure of evaluation is as follows:

First, look at the value (explained: unpacking)

Second, what (Explanation: Functional Description)

Third, how to (explain: practical use)

Fourth, how to play (explain: push information and APP use)

How long is it?

Six, can buy (explain: advantages and disadvantages and purchase recommendations)

Seventh, answer questions (interpretation: do not want to see long articles directly to the last to see this, just ask one answer)

============================ Gorgeous dividing line ================== ===================

Let’s get started, or else you should take a brick

First, look at the value of Yan (out of the box drying, in the end what kind of)

It is undeniable that this is an era of face; whether you are a human, a demon, a thing, a software, a hardware, or you are a virtual person. SO is to look at the face; it does not look good, everything is free! Even if you say you are powerful, you show. With such a look, let's take a look at the 735XT.

When receiving the courier, the typical Zhang Aunt style; the thick yellow tape on the sealing tape is highly recognizable. Open the package, there are bubble bags inside the real product (see below)

The rest is the demolition, demolition, and demolition. After all, we are not visiting Aunt Zhang. (The three-minute advertising time for you is almost the same;)

The positive information transmission of the box is accurate: the model, style and brand are all available; it is clear and clear that this is a sports watch, and the curve of the screen represents the data visualization conveyed by it.

The side of the box should brush the contents of this mobile phone APP. After all, if electronic equipment of this era cannot be connected to mobile data, it is simply not necessary to sell it; there are two exaggerated two-dimensional code representations at the bottom of the side. Garmin has already kept pace with the Internet age.

The bottom of the box (of course, I stand up), is a handsome brand poster (said the side is not bad)

Open the box, the 735XT is quietly and quietly lying in the box, motionless; heart rate icon in the lower right corner shows that he supports the latest photoelectric heart rate

Remove the watch and see what's still in the box? Watches, charging lines, certifications, manuals; be regarded as routine routines for electronic products.

Although there are not many accessories (PS: only a single charging line), but the workmanship is also very good; above this Garmin LOGO

The charger is clip-on type, and USB charging is performed by engaging the right side of the watch.

Since the main heart rate function, we first take a look at the bottom of the watch, the photoelectric sensing area is raised at the bottom of the entire case, this has the advantage of being able to play as far as possible to maintain the fit of the photoelectric and arm, avoiding the bracelet Inadequate heart rate monitoring caused by loose or tight fitting; heart rate sensor is printed with various icons and some parameter numbers around, and there is even a miniature two-dimensional code;

At the same time, this watch supports ANT +, ANT + as a proud wireless transmission technology, really good stability, but there are some problems (will be mentioned later)

The watch bracelet is made of classic silicone material, with fixed rectangular buckle holes. The strap also has a leather strap strap. (It is necessary to specify that the strap has a stable positioning point on the inside to use Fit with strap hole)

The watchband has a black and gray two-color structure, the exterior is black, and the inside is gray; and the observation watchband can be clearly seen to belong to a concave structure, ie, the middle low side is high, such a benefit is that a long strap fits the skin Under this circumstance, it is possible to achieve maximum ventilation and to avoid the discomfort of long-term wear; from the following perspective, it is more intuitive.

Charging time, the basic shape of this watch is as follows, although looking a little awkward (estimate still does not see the habit), but the overall line is not easy to shake.

From the overall value of the point of view, 735XT is a good table; Although the appearance of aluminum alloy material is not used, it is not enough atmosphere, not enough masculine. But it's good enough. The eye-catching big numbers show abnormal gazing. From this point of view, it is still very suitable for everyday wear.

Second, what (to see exactly what can be done)

Appearance also looked so much, then the name of this name around the table, in the end can do? What are his functions? I think these are the concerns of many people

First of all, this is a multi-function sports watch with a triathlon signature, as shown in its advertising image.

Second, since it is a composite watch, then it is supportive of multi-function, this watch supports sports activities (bicycles, indoor bicycles, indoor running, running, swimming pools, open water swimming, and iron third)

There are also some features such as: real-time heart rate monitoring, sedentary reminder, swimming stroke recognition, stride length record, SMS and notifications and phone alerts, track records, navigation, training, etc.)

As well as the daily steps shown in the above chart

It can be said that most of the basic functions of this wristband product are owned by this buddy; most types of wristbands have no function (navigation, real-time heart rate, swimming stroke recognition, etc.) It also has; in short, there are two words: comprehensive.

If you are interested in matching him with an official heart rate and bicycle cadence sensor, that will record more! ! !

In addition, if you want to record your heart rate while swimming, use your heart rate....

Although the main functions are related to sports, as a daily office worker, most people who exercise on weekdays usually use "watch functions, notification push, real-time heart rate monitoring, and sedentary reminders."

Third, how (usually used to see å–½)

First of all, the landlord, as a typical North Dry Duck, can't really swim, so the swimming stroke recognition and swimming related functions will not be tested. Who let you be a northerner?...

In nearly two weeks of testing, the landlord's scope of my testing is as follows:

1, daily nearly 10,000 steps of daily records

2, heart rate monitoring in real time (nothing to look at the current heart rate, the company has a meeting with a hurry to see)

3, running (each running 10km)

4, riding (a single close to 15km)

5, daily information push

6, navigation

First of all, say the dial button layout structure

There are 5 buttons on both sides of the watch, the upper left is the power + light button; the lower left two buttons are the upper and lower buttons, if in the time interface, press to enter the shortcut menu, press to enter the heart rate interface; right is the shortcut to enter the sport mode button, at the same time Has pause, start, and end functions in the exercise; the lower right is the return button.

The color of the upper right button is obviously different from the other four buttons, but it does not bring much help to the operation in actual use scenes.

In actual use, the monitoring of the heart rate is relatively accurate. This is in contrast to the new bracelet of Xiaomi; the difference is between 3-5; the heart rate lamp fits the wrist when it is always bright.

Regarding daily records, the number of steps is relatively accurate, and at the same time, there is a progress curve on the left side of the screen to describe the degree of completion of the daily steps you set.

Regarding running, the running reminder is calculated according to the circle, and once every 5KM watch vibration is reminded, at the same time, in the running mode, the page can be adjusted to be in the heart rate display mode for a long time; when the heart rate exceeds the set threshold, there is a vibration prompt.

With respect to riding, the entire journey and heart rate will be recorded. If the bicycle is equipped with a designated accessory cadence, riding assistance will be more effective.

About daily information push (taking into account that the information is not suitable for screen capture, or don't let it out); current information push includes SMS, WeChat, APP push, and phone calls. Currently, you can view SMS, view WeChat information, and even WeChat on 735XT. Group news, also see app notification push. Telephone calls will also be reminded, but the only downside is that the information class can only be viewed and cannot be answered; the telephone class can only make notifications and cannot be called.

In addition, the key point here is the Bluetooth connection of the mobile phone. The disconnection will be more frequent. The characteristic of the 735XT is that after a while, it will vibrate to remind you that the mobile phone has been disconnected. However, in reality, the mobile phone is within a meter of the side and there is no operation. . This piece is the key to optimization.

About navigation: navigation needs to open the map, at the same time you can save the address of your home, and then select these locations to navigate back to the origin, you can also record each ride, running travel, to facilitate the next run or ride directly Advance through the navigation route.

From this point of view, the 735XT has powerful sports functions and high navigation practicality; real-time heart rate monitoring helps to understand its current mental state, and information push only reads non-responses. It is still necessary during exercise and can be quickly viewed. Determine what really important information needs to reply.

Fourth, how to play (APP and information push)

The 735XT can synchronize the data in the mobile phone through the mobile phone APP (Connect).

After the software APP is opened, it enters the top screen and it is mainly displayed as a snapshot of the main sports items. It can be swiped left or right to show the details of the monitored contents of each category item.

On the details page of each sub-item, you can click to continue to see more detailed content, such as running, cycling, sleep, heart rate, etc. Please refer to the figure below. All data is very detailed. If you are an athlete, Then look at the data to help you improve your exercise habits and achieve better goals

For example, the following figure rides from altitude to heart rate to delivery

Click on the hamburger icon in the upper left corner to enter the menu. Quick and direct access to each item's monitoring gauge page is available through the menu

This piece of APP, Garmin can say that it has done very comprehensive, and the interactive animation of the data table icon of all kinds of sports is also good, in some data charts can also be displayed horizontally, and local amplification processing; can be said that is quite Professional.

If you need to improve, it is more friendly to the human-computer experience. The next thing is that the update of the 735XT and APP needs to be accelerated, and there is the ability to update manually.

V. How long is it (Life and actual wear experience)

In the case of full power, the heart rate monitoring function can be turned on, and the key frequency of 20-35 times a day can be maintained and synchronized three times; it can support between 12-13 days.

Charge from 0 to 100% full, 2A charging head, fully recharged within 2.5 hours

The diameter of the watch screen is 31mm and the outer diameter is 43mm. Overall, it is suitable for men with medium wrists. The figure below shows the landlord's wear. The landlord's wrist diameter is 54.80mm.

Due to the use of a silica gel watch band and a grooved structure inside, it does not feel stuffy or sweaty due to wear for a long time. Relatively comfortable.

Six, can buy (the advantages and disadvantages)

Let’s talk about the advantages

1, full-featured, more than 10 types of sports can be monitored

2, real-time heart rate, not only more accurate, but also guarantees a good life

3, charging fast (basically no more than 2.5 hours can be full)

4, mobile phone notification push (check reading no problem, can be used as half a reminder)

5, the size of moderate (for many of the boys with small wrists, the characteristics of large outdoor watches are not suitable for the characteristics of almost 735)

6, the endurance is strong, after all, lasting is the last word

7, positioning search quasi-fast, fast; 3-5 seconds to quickly locate.

After talking about the advantages, let's talk about it.

1, Bluetooth connection is not stable,

2,735 screen does not wear

3, the price is high (compared with the same door fenix 3)

Overall, the 735XT is a sports watch worth buying, with more features and relatively good face value; after all, fenix 3 is handsome, but many people can't hold it, and the gap between 1k is not small, and actually Similar functions.
