In this article, I want to tell you about the latest 2020 smartwatch – Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS. As you understand from the name, the main feature of this watch is built-in GPS.
Probably some of you already have the smartwatch from the Zeblaze Vibe series, for example, Vibe 3, Vibe 3 Pro, Vibe 3S, or other. This series has many models.
The price of Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS is only $39. Let’s talk about other features of this watch.
Unboxing
When you order Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS, you will get it in this box.
Here we can see how the watch looks like, and main features on the back, such as GPS/GLONASS, Heart Rate, and others.
Inside the box, there is the watch, magnetic charger with a two-pin connector, and user manual in English.
OK, now let’s talk about the design of Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS.
Design
It looks like the case of the watch is made of plastic, but actually this is a drilling carbon coating. The diameter of the case is 50.5mm, while the thickness is 15.9mm.
Yes, the new Zeblaze watch is quite thick. For comparison, this is my phone and Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS. The smartphone is twice as thin as the watch.
The weight of the new watch is only 59 grams.
Talking about the strap, it is made of TPU, and it is removable. You can choose the strap from black and blue color. By the way, the blue strap looks very nice. Do you agree? Write in the comments below.
The strap has a width of 24mm, so you can buy any other strap on Aliexpress, and use it with Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS.
On the back of the watch, there is a heart rate sensor and charging contacts.
On the right side, we can see two physical control buttons.
The screen is touch-sensitive. It has a diagonal of 1.3 inches, and 240 by 240 pixels resolution.
As you can see, it is quite good outdoors. You can see the time and use other functions in direct sunlight.
Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS is a sports watch, so it is waterproof by IP67 standard. However, it doesn’t have a swimming pool sports mode, so most likely you should take it off before going to swim.
Now let’s turn on the watch and look at the functions.
Functions
On the main watch face, we can see the time, date, calories, steps, and heart rate. You can also press and hold on the screen to choose another watch face. In general, there are three watch faces pre-installed.
Swipe down from the top and you will see your daily activity, such as steps, calories, and distance.
Swipe left to measure heart rate.
The next swipe allows us to see information about sleep and sports records.
If you want to read the latest notifications, then you have to swipe left from the main screen.
Swipe right from the main watch face, and you will get a quick settings menu with battery level, do not disturb mode, screen brightness, find phone, and settings menu.
In the settings menu, there is a sedentary function, about, screen light, restart, power off, and reset.
Finally, the main functions are at the bottom of the main screen.
The first function is the daily activity that we have seen before.
The next one is sports modes. Here we have walking out, running out, indoor running, outdoor running, climb, pedestrianism, free training, and motion record.
I took a little walk outside with GPS on, and now I can see the map of my route, distance, time, and other useful information.
The other functions are sports records, sleep information, heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen, timer, music control, camera control, find phone, settings menu, stopwatch, and screen brightness.
By the way, the screen with new notifications looks like this.
When somebody calls on your phone, you will see the name of the contact on the watch. All you can do is reject the call.
That’s all functions of Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS.
App
I will not go into details of the app because it is the same as the previous Zeblaze watches. It is called Fundo App, and it is available on Android and iOS devices.
In the app, you can monitor your daily activity, heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen, and sports records.
Battery
Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS is equipped with a 280mAh battery. The battery life depends on usage. For example, if you are just looking for time on the watch, then the battery life is about 15 days.
The watch will last for 10 days if you receive many notifications, use heart rate, blood pressure, and other functions.
With continuous using GPS, for example, when you are running, the battery life will be 235 minutes or about 4 hours.
You should understand that battery life depends on usage.
Conclusion
Zeblaze Vibe 3 GPS is one of the most affordable sports watches with built-in GPS. You really need it if you are running and walking outdoors.
However, if you don’t need GPS, then there are many other watches from Zeblaze. I will leave the link below.
