Ozaki O! Fitness - the cheapest chest heart rate monitor
Concluding a small series of cheap heart rate monitors, today we will briefly tell you about the Ozaki model. She has a number of advantages.
First, the price. Today, even after studying Aliexpress, it was not possible to find a Bluetooth Smart bib with a price and parameters comparable ( 819 rubles ). Plus, all cheap heart rate monitors from China have a "cast" shape, but here the sensor is separate - the belt is separate.

In other words, if the belt fails sooner or later, it can be replaced by retaining the sensor.
Ozaki is clear in its design: it is an oval-shaped gadget that works from the “Cr-ki”, synchronizing with smartphones using Bluetooth Smart. And this, too, is, let's say, the “hidden meaning.”
For iOS
In general, the company Ozaki is positioning itself as the creator of gadgets for girls: what they did to monitor the progress of pregnancy, what now the heart rate monitor is positioning as a gadget that helps to lose weight. Actually the native application in the AppStore is called FatBurn .
At the same time, for some reason, the company does not do Android applications. The native software is made quite brightly, playfully, in some ways even meticulously: the registration process is very consistent. Here, for example, only a few steps.
In general, every step until the heart rate monitor is on the chest connects to the smartphone, you are accompanied by kind prompts and an offer to give the data to Apple Health.
In this case, and voice prompts during training - are attached, but ... Unfortunately, the application is currently not localized. This can be tolerated, because the basic information is still in figures: there will be a counter of steps, distances, calories consumed.
Android
With Android smartphones, Ozaki is also compatible, of course, and will work with any software you are used to. We connected it to Endomondo. In this case, it works like a normal heart rate monitor.
From the point of view of accuracy, there are no complaints. Within half an hour of walking back and forth, having a Fitbit Ionic comparison on my arm as a means, the maximum divergence on both sides is from 1 to 4 units.
Pulsometer done very well. The belt is made of fabric, it is soft and elastic.
The fasteners, although not deeply recessed, do not cause censures: the design is securely connected using “rivets”.
The only thing: connect it "without a breast" does not work. In order for the heart rate monitor to connect to the smartphone, you need to wear a belt, while it is desirable, of course, to start moving.
Also, we must pay tribute to the fact that for its price tag, it is packed very, very worthy:
The price tag is, as we wrote above, 819 rubles. At the same time, if you pay for the goods directly on the site, then with the OZAKIWE code it will cost 600 rubles until May 20 of this year.
