Within the world of quantifiers, we can find a multitude of options. Although most are oriented to the sports world and have a sporty appearance and manufactured mainly with plastic materials, we can also find style models like those manufactured by Withing. The new Activité Steel model is situated halfway between the Activité Pop model and the first model with the same name that hit the market last year. This new model offers us a more elegant touch if we want to use a quantifier 24 hours a day without looking like we are wearing a decorative bracelet.
If you are one of the users who uses quantifying bracelets but does not like or does not just see the one used on a smartwatch, the watches of the French firm are the ideal solution. The Activité Steel offers us a nice round steel case with the typical quantifiers such as step counter, distance traveled, sleep cycles but in addition, and thanks to its resistance to water, it also allows us to check our progress while swimming.
All the data that we extract from the device, thanks to its bluetooth 4.0 connection, we can manage them from the firm's own app called Whiting Health Mate, where we can check our daily and weekly progress. The Activité Steel, as I mentioned above, is more of a quantifier than a smartwatch, so if we want notifications on our wrist, this is not our device.
Like previous models, the Activité Steel offers us an autonomy of 8 months thanks to the non-rechargeable battery built into the device. With a duration like this, we will not mind going through a watch shop from time to time to change it. This Withing model is compatible with the iPhone 4s onwards and with any version equal to or greater than iOS 7. On November 19 it will hit the market for $ 169,95.
