LG has made its first foray into the fitness technology market with an activity tracker and earphones that measure your heart rate.
The two devices i.e. LG Lifeband Touch and the Heart Rate earphones offer practical features and one of the most accurate data collection and analysis currently available, making it easier for wearers to take control of their health. Both devices can be wirelessly connected to most of today’s popular smartphones to create a full-featured wearable ecosystem.
LG Lifeband Touch features a bright, full-touch OLED display that provides easy, real-time access to a full range of fitness data. It is a lightweight device that is a simple to use and the display turns on when wearers rotate their wrists.
The LG Lifeband Touch enables users to check incoming calls and messages and control their music playlists on their smartphones. It is compatible with both Android and iOS operating systems and can work with the LG Fitness app as well as other fitness apps such as MyFitnessPal, Runkeeper and MapMyFitness.
On the other hand, LG’s Heart Rate Earphones are designed to provide accurate heart rate data by measuring blood flow signals in the ear via PerformTek sensor technology while also delivering excellent sound.
LG Heart Rate Earphones can be used alone or with LG Lifeband Touch. A separate clip-on medallion contains Bluetooth connectivity sends data to the Lifeband Touch or a compatible smartphone. If you use the LG Fitness App, you can also receive audible status updates informing you of your heart rate and VO2 max (maximal oxygen consumption) levels in real time.
