Runtastic Moment – intelligent analog watch includes features fitness watch review. The combination of a very unusual and gadget you can try to compare with known device Withings Activite, Mondaine Helvetica 1 Smart and Nevo Watch. It would justify the purchase of this device, or better to prefer smart trackers listed previously in the form of an analog watch?
The most important “chip” news Runtastic Moment became noble, low-tech appearance – the device cannot be distinguished from the traditional watches. The removable battery provides autonomy of up to six months and a set of sensors to monitor the activity and performance of the carrier.
It is believed that this is a very attractive value for money, considering the build quality and materials: for example, the analogs are significantly more expensive – Activity priced at $ 450 and Nevo Watch with a cost of $ 299.
Runtastic Moment Elite is the dimensional model with a diagonal of the dial 46 mm and weighing 242 g to the body of stainless steel attached hard cloth belt (which, according to reviews, is no different convenience).
Model Runtastic Moment Basic 20 grams heavier, but less than the diameter of the dial – 43 mm. Silicone strap used much nicer.
In general, Runtastic not created a stunning design – each model is deprived of aesthetics, looks unremarkable and even gray. This is certainly a matter of taste.

When tracking of sleep also watches has problems with accuracy, although less significant.
Besides all this, there is one negative point: the launch of the sleep mode tracking is carried out by holding down three seconds. It’s not too convenient and outdated because almost all the trackers (Jawbone, Misfit, and Fitbit) start this mode automatically.
You can also set the alarm, but it will wake you up at exactly the appointed time, excluding the current phase of sleep.
It is necessary to talk a bit about the application Runtastic Me. It is very simple and displays daily statistics, and can sync with Apple Health and Google Fit.

You are waiting for additional costs is not very nice part of the company, taking into account the fact that most trackers offer these features for free.
