 Is there a difference between smart bracelets and smart watches in terms of functions?

Whether there is a difference in the functions of smart bracelets and smart watches is a key question. Smart watches on the market can be roughly divided into two categories: one is based on mobile operating systems such as Android and Apple, and has independent calling and Internet functions. In essence, it is a smaller version of a smartphone. Apple iWATCH is a typical representative, which can be regarded as a mobile phone in the shape of a watch; the other is that it does not have an independent mobile network module and must be connected to other smart devices for use. It can receive calls/text messages from smartphones and realize Bluetooth transmission with mobile phones.

The bracelet emphasizes sensor technology more, and collects human physiological and behavioral parameters through a variety of sensor chips. Common functions include sports step counting, sleep monitoring, heart rate monitoring, sedentary reminders, etc. The timing function of the watch can also be easily possessed by the bracelet. Of course, sports watches can also be built-in with a variety of sensors to achieve the same behavior monitoring as bracelets.

So in fact, in terms of functions, 80-90% of the functions of smart watches and smart bracelets are almost exactly the same. If there is any difference, it may be that the manufacturers have different functional positioning of the bracelets and watches themselves, and then deliberately create differences in functional configuration. However, as an outdoor sports smart watch, because of the particularity of the usage scenario, it has higher requirements for functions and safety.
