Recently, Apple's official website has listed two new products, the smart water bottle HitrateSpark STEEL and the Hitrate Spark 3.
The Hidrate Spark 3 is priced at $498, with a capacity of 592 milliliters, and consists of a food safety grade plastic Tritan and a polypropylene plastic material (no insulation function is provided). In terms of battery life, with CR2477 lithium battery (non-cyclic charging), the battery life is about 6 months.
The 568 yuan HitrateSpark STEEL is a stainless steel vacuum insulated direct drinking cup, with a capacity of 620 ml, which can keep cold for up to 24 hours when holding cold drinks. In terms of battery life, the use of USB charging for 2.5 hours can provide 10-14 days of battery life. The water cup set also contains a straight drink lid and a straw lid.
Both new products have built-in smart sensors to record the user's daily water consumption and record it through the App on the iPhone or iPad, Hidrate Spark 3 reminds the user to drink water by the bottle body (three colors of the lamp), HidrateSpark STEEL will be prompted by the bottom of the bottle to be illuminated, especially it can also emit a "colorful black" effect, taking it out of the door must be very eye-catching.
Simply put, compared to ordinary water bottles, this is two more reminder and recording functions of the water cup, connected through Bluetooth, need to be used with the App, the audience is limited to Apple users, five hundred yuan or so to start is not worth it? It's a matter of opinion.
But from the current point of view, even if you have money to buy these two water bottles are not easy to buy, because the delivery date is 8-10 weeks, the fastest will be in early July to get your hands on it, compared to the original "shelf is sold out" value of 145 yuan apple polishing cloth, the late delivery of the goods is a comparison.
More affordable, or even zero-cost water reminders
Pingti Smart Water Bottle: Huawei Smart Water Cup
In fact, products with similar functions have long been available in China, such as the Hals smart water cup (bullet cap model and screw cap model) selected by Huawei two years ago.
Like Apple's smart water cups, they all have a 12-hour insulation function, which can record daily water consumption through the App, recommend scientific water consumption according to weight, facilitate users to set up drinking reminders and cultivate drinking habits, and also have a humanized temperature touch screen display and pop-up window experience. And because there is no "cool" RGB lighting effect, Huawei's two smart water cups last up to 4 weeks on a single charge.
The most important thing is that the price is only 149 yuan (bullet cover model) and 159 yuan (screw cover model), which can be described as a higher cost performance, perhaps a more sensible choice.
Take advantage of the sedentary reminder of the smart bracelet/watch
Of course, in fact, there is no need to buy a smart water cup in order to remind the drinking water, and now many friends are also the recipients of smart watches / smart bracelets, may wish to open the "sedentary reminder" that comes with the smart wearable device, the right should be "drinking water reminder", and it is not impossible to add water to the body after walking (touching) moving (fish) at intervals.
