![]() Meanwhile, the high-tech physical format that sought to replace vinyl in the '80s (the compact disc) continues its death spiral seemingly everywhere outside of Japan. ![]() That's in addition to locked groove songs on each side in and a number of other special features. That Ultra LP features vinyl-only hidden tracks under each side's label, with one playing at 45 RPM and the other 78 RPM. RTJ also toyed with virtual reality in their 360-degree video for the single "Crown."Īnd for plain old engineering wizardry, look no further than Jack White's Lazaretto record. ![]() Most recently, rap duo Run the Jewels released Run the Jewels 3 with an augmented reality component for not only the vinyl version of the record, but all of the group's merchandise. Its twin 45 RPM LPs, glow-in-the-dark cover art and other accoutrements will set you back somewhere around $60 depending on where you buy it. The rest of the so-called features is mostly smoke and mirrors.The Motown-esque album doesn't come cheap, however. But this is basically a watch, and not much more. I mean, for the price I can’t complain too much. They don’t even allow you to edit your sleep data!ĭoes anybody know, how many new products have been introduced since this watch has come out? Who has time to fix bugs or update anything? If I get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, that’s the end of the sleep data for that night. The crystal scratches when you look at it.īut their so-called sleep function, as others have pointed out, is doa pretty much. Swiping two different screens is a challenge. Steps are nice, but who knows how accurate that is on any watch?Ĭompared to my Fitbit charge, I prefer the larger, color screen of the Wyze watch. It was my hope months ago, that I would be able to replace my Fitbit with this watch, since I use it mostly for sleep tracking. Everything else? Toys.Ĭoncentrating on the Wyze watch, specifically the sleep function, or actually the lack of one, is a waste of time at this point. I have my suspicions as to why (stock market, cough, appearance to investors, cough, cough, etc). Imo, Wyze has introduced way too many products. There are plenty of them at their price point. We get what we pay for and I didn’t expect much from the Wyze watch as its a rename of Chinese generic equipment. I will end up shelving my Wyze watch and get what we already have in household. The plus is they are introducing folks to each product space AND customers will grow away from them to real world solutions. They have yet to solve many solved problems their competitors solve. ![]() And other other times, it tracks I was awake when I wasn’t.Īs much as I would like Wyze to be a serious contender in their product spaces, Wyze will continue to be just a gimmick. Other times, I’m awake and not really asleep and it tracks as sleep. I’ve been up in middle of night and it doesnt track that I got up and was awake. Even if you set watch for sleep times to not notify its not really using that time to track sleep. If you take sietas/naps in the middle of the day or evening, it won’t track your sleep. If you sleep in middle of day and work a night shift it will not track your sleep. Not sure what it tracks for sleep, but apparently its not the industry standard. QA and testers at Wyze are likely so green that they don’t know how to fully test products and apps. It seems the testing and QA at Wyze is so lacking that they forgot to ensure all types of customers would be considered. I stated there are no settings to check or update for sleep. He didn’t offer any solution other than “play with the settings” to get it to work. I’ve called and Wyze support person seemed to not care and clearly didn’t know what to do. I’ve sent logs twice from phone app and have yet to hear from Wyze support. I’m sure I’m not the only person who works a 24/7 job and has to put out “work fires” throughout day/night AND have more than 1 sleep/nap sessions in a day. Say I sleep 4 hours, wake up for 30 mins, go back to sleep for 3 hours, wake for hour, go back to sleep…the app will only show the first 4 hours. Now it shows partial sleep time as the “total” for the day and misses any second or additional sleep periods in any day. The graphs show only one period of sleep per day…they should show the full 24 hours on the graph and show wake and asleep times for a total of 24 hours.
