New update for Amazfit Helio smart ring: more accurate sleep and heart rate data
Zepp Health has introduced a new update for the Amazfit Helio smart ring that includes several improvements but also causes confusion among users.
Here's What We Know
The update, version 2.3.8.5, is a small 2.04 MB in size and can be easily installed via the app. Users are advised to make sure their device is fully charged before updating.
The description of the changes in this update is quite concise and contains only four major improvements, some of which can have a significant impact.
One of the main changes is a complete update to the sleep monitoring algorithm, which now also displays a sleep quality score.
Some users on Reddit have expressed doubts about this change, noting that their sleep scores have dropped significantly. One user noted that the REM sleep time dropped from 90 minutes to only 13 minutes, raising questions about the accuracy of the new algorithm or problems with the previous one.
In addition to improved sleep monitoring, Zepp Health has also improved heart rate measurement for more accurate results. In addition, the user experience when the battery is low has been improved, making the device more convenient to use.
Amazfit recently released an update for the Active 2 smartwatch. Amazfit Active 2 users will be able to listen to music without a smartphone.
Zepp Health also released a global update for Amazfit Balance with DJI support and new workouts. The update is known to include several new features, including support for remote control of the DJI drone via Bluetooth.
