Elephone has now revealed that
they’re going to launch the 5th generation of their smart bands, unsurprisingly
called Elephone Band 5.
The Elephone Band 5 is expected to come with all the
basic features you expect from a fitness band. It’ll have 24hr heart rate
monitoring, as well as track steps, sleep and sports. Being an health monitor,
the band is configurable to notify you when your heart rate changes due to
exercising, so, if for example, your heart rate goes over a set limit, it will
start vibrating.
Other functions will include calories counting,
“shake to take photos”, message notifications and more. The built-in battery is
also said to last for at least 10 days, which is quite a good autonomy for this
kind of products.
The Elephone Band 5 is expected to launch in
mid-May, so pretty much any day now, at the starting price of US$ 9.99.
