Short overview in screenshots of Healbe GoBe after few days testing of production version.

Main changes in production version:

— weight: much less, like Motor 360

—needs really hard contact with skin as always.

Intake calories

I’ve just used MyFitnessPal to compare one-day tracking of calories with Healbe. In result: Healbe can measure intake calories accurately, diffrerence is 127 cal, and i think coffee is one of the biggest problem to measure.

Heart rate

I’ve tried to test in real-time 3 different heart rate sensors, Wellograph (optical sensor, left hand), Healbe (right hand) and Runtastic combo belt. Numbers Wellograph vs Healbe are comparable: 98 vs 92 (we should understand the difference between hands) . But both are not comparable with Runtastic belt, because 98 vs 92 vs 112, 10–20% difference is too much to use it for sport, but in lifestyle all sensors are in this accuracy.

Blood pressure

Magic or not? Looks like magic but works well like iHealth wrist monitor.

Test 1 — AND vs Healbe

Test 2 — Healbe vs iHealth vs AND

My opinion as result

Healbe works perfect for absolutely new device with absolutely new technology, sometimes it look like magic, but ten years ago wifi in airplane was also like a magic.
