YU has entered the wearable technology segment with the launch of YuFit smartband and HealthyYu health tracker in the country. The YuFit fitness band comes with a price tag of Rs. 999 ($16/€14). The fitness band will go on sale next month and is being positioned as the first calorie counter for Indian foods. The company is of the opinion that the new device that they are offering is not just a fitness band, but is a lifestyle companion instead.
The YuFit band comes alongside the YuFit app (made in collaboration with HealthifyMe), and together users get such features as step tracking, sleep tracking, distance walked, and calories burnt. The app also lets users track how many calories they have consumed, with its database also including Indian snacks and dishes. The smartband also features a display that shows the time, apart from notifying users about incoming calls and messages.
There’s a small OLED display on the band, which also allows it to show alerts for calls and messages. This gives it a leg up on the similarly priced Xiaomi Mi Band, which has only three color LEDs on its front. However, it brings several features in addition, giving some stiff competition to the popular Chinese manufacturer. Connecting to smartphones via Bluetooth, it is compatible with both Android and iPhone smartphones.
The fitness tracking band also comes with a Find My Phone feature that helps users locate their paired smartphone. The company is adding a human touch with real life personal trainers, the first 1,000 users get access to the service for free.
