Health Monitoring and Sports Tracking Capabilities
Both models provide continuous heart rate, SpO2 (blood oxygen), stress, sleep, and skin temperature monitoring. The Pro version further distinguishes itself with an integrated electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor and a depth sensor for diving enthusiasts, as reported by Tudo Celular.
The series supports over 110 sports modes. Specialized features include a professional ski mode, advanced metrics for cycling, trail running data, and pre-loaded maps for thousands of golf courses.
