code table is installed on a bicycle to record and display several cycling data. The brand meaning of Bryton is "Bright" in English and "on" in French, while the Chinese means bright, smart and exciting. Bryton is headquartered in Taiwan, with a production factory in Taiwan and mainland China. Its R&D team has more than 10 years of experience in GPS electronic product research and development and strong technical capabilities of GPS products.
Since playing with bicycles, it has successively 1 traditional wired code and 1 wireless code. It is very troublesome to install the sensor head and set the tire circumference. The data cannot be exported, there is no riding trajectory, and there is no social sharing. With the purchase of GPS watches and the popularity of mobile APPs, these two code watches have long been abandoned. Thanks to Yewaner for organizing this Bryton R301E code table evaluation and giving it an opportunity to evaluate. After several trials, my personal evaluation experience is as follows.
1. Appearance design 20 minutes
The simple packaging with refreshing color matching feels great. You can directly see the true content of the code table from outside, and the product's functions and other information are listed in the 4 weeks of packaging. There are only a few standard items in the
packaging box, including the code host, data cable, base and manual. Not only the code meter, but also the fixing rubber ring, base and USB cable are very good. The host of
code watch is very small and has a smooth and round surface, which makes people love it. The front is mainly a display screen, with three buttons distributed below the host, and the back is a USB port. The overall design and key layout are relatively reasonable.
2. Functional parameters 20 points
As a 2015 product, the price of less than 500 yuan is only a mid-to-low-end positioning, but the functions are very rich, enough to meet the needs of ordinary players. Players who need route planning and navigation functions need to purchase the more advanced 330 series.
. Practical experience 18 points
. Installing R310E is very simple to install. Fix the base and then screw the code table tightly on. The installation position can be a horizontal handle or a vertical handle. If necessary, you can also purchase an extension bracket.
. Code table setting code table setting function is quite rich, the display content can be customized 3-8 items, the display number is up to 5 pages, and other pages are available, such as Bluetooth switch, height correction, GPS mode, adding other peripherals (heart rate band, cadence), etc.
query manual found that R310E only supports ANT heart rate band. I just happened to have the ANT heart rate belt of the Garmin watch on hand, try pairing it, So Easy!
. Cycling experience There were cycling 2 times in this review, with a total of 3 riding records.
.1 GPS star search speed R310E's star search speed is very fast. After updating GPS information through software, the star search speed was not successful in less than half a minute, which is comparable to the Garmin Fenix 3 watch in speed. The GPS position update is also in seconds. Once the bicycle stops, the current speed of the code table will immediately become 0.
.2 Display effect When setting the 5 items of data display per page, you can clearly see the display data in the riding state, especially the first item, and the key page turn reaction is also very sensitive. The backlight display effect of
R310E is very clear, and there is no pressure to view data when riding at night. The R310E also has a very commendable feature, which is automatic backlighting, which will automatically backlight during sunset time according to the GPS-located sunrise and sunset time.
.3 Data record is about 28KM for the first time, the distance recorded by R310E is 27.57KM, and the distance recorded by Suunto Ambit 3 is 28.32KM. The difference between the two is 750M. The difference is within an acceptable range. There should be some impact on the middle.
The second ride, to avoid the impact of pause, the record was directly stopped dividing into 2 sections. The difference between the R310E and the Garmin Fenix 3 is 0.13KM, and the difference is very small. It can be seen that the GPS function of the R310E is very powerful and reliable.
Other data such as temperature, altitude, climbing, etc. are also somewhat different, but it is of little significance to ordinary cycling enthusiasts and is for reference only.
.4 Waterproof function R310E's nominal waterproof level is IPX7, which means that R310E will not exceed 30 minutes after immersion in 1 meter of water. During the actual measurement, short-term immersion and water sprinkling were performed, which did not affect the normal operation of the code table.
.5 Battery life R310E can be used for 28 hours in normal GPS mode, far exceeding the general riding time, meeting most cycling activities. After more than 4 hours of trial riding, the battery consumption was visually estimated to be around 20%. After 10 minutes of operation and activity, the R310E will automatically shut down to save power.
charging data cable is a normal Android, which can share the plug and cable with other Android devices. It can be charged directly on the computer or other USB interfaces. In an emergency, you can also use a power bank to supply power.
4. APP and software supporting 18 points
. Official APPDue to well-known reasons, Bairuiteng has developed a Chinese version of the APP for Chinese users, which is considered a conscientious enterprise. After downloading and installing
, click Bluetooth synchronization, search for the R310E code table for pairing to achieve data synchronization. The official APP also has functions such as record viewing, track planning (R310E has no navigation function, not applicable). Unfortunately, no code table setting can be performed on the APP.
official APP also has other very rich data and charts for reference, which are very suitable for advanced training of friends and data control, and can also be used for one click on each social platform.
official APPGPS trajectory always starts to drift in the same place, and then runs into the reservoir. It seems to be the reason for using Google Maps, but suddenly a horizontal line starts to drift, and it seems that it is not entirely because of the map, so I can't figure it out.
. Tulip Sports APPIn addition to the official APP, Bairuiteng products also support direct connection with the Tulip Sports APP and synchronizing data. Note that it is directly synchronized with the code table connection, rather than resynchronization through account association.
Compared with the official APP, the trajectory displayed after tulip movement is synchronized is more accurate. The above drift phenomenon disappears, but the data displayed is not as rich as that of the official APP.
. PC software , like other mainstream GPS sports devices, Bairuiteng also needs to update the device firmware through the PC side. After connecting to the computer through the data cable, click Update software and Update GPS information to update the code table.
. Overall feeling 19 points
For cycling enthusiasts like me, Bairuiteng R310E meets my needs for cycling data, social sharing, etc. with extremely rich and accurate data records, and avoids the dangers of raising the wrist while riding and the embarrassment of not being able to see the surface display clearly. In addition, it has a very high price ratio, although this is a 2015 product, it is very worth buying! Advantages of
: 1. Powerful recording function, accurate GPS recording; 2. Applicable to many APPs, it is very convenient to view data records and social sharing; 3. The screen display is clear, and the display content can be customized as needed; 4. It can be paired with other peripherals that support ANT transmission; 5. Simple installation operation.
Disadvantages: 1. The official APP drifts when viewing the GPS track, and other maps cannot be replaced; 2. The code table setting cannot be performed on the APP.
