Basics

Introduction

The SmartBand Talk is both a standalone device as well as a companion product that connects wirelessly via Bluetooth® with Android™ smartphones and tablets. Worn on your dominant wrist, it can monitor your body movements and interact with your Android™ device to generate data about your daily life and habits. For example, the SmartBand Talk counts your steps and records data about your physical state while you walk or run. Together with the Lifelog application, you can set personal goals and then track your progress in a comprehensive and easily viewable format.
The accessory also helps you to stay organised and manage common day-to-day tasks. For example, you can use it to handle alarms, phone calls and text messages, and to record voice notes. And with dozens of applications available for your SmartBand Talk on Google Play™, you can add new features regularly.
Before you can get started using your SmartBand Talk, you must download the SmartBand Talk application and set up the accessory to work with your phone or tablet. Refer to the relevant setup information for more details. Also, remember that your Android™ device must run the Android™ software version 4.4 or higher and support the Bluetooth® version 3.0 profile.

Understanding the display

Your SmartBand Talk features an E Ink® display that uses electronic ink technology to reproduce the appearance of ordinary ink on paper. In an E Ink® display, no backlight is used. Instead, ambient light from the environment is reflected from the surface of the display, making it more comfortable to read. The image on your E Ink® screen is retained even when power to the screen is turned off. Also note that when the content displayed on the screen changes, there is a brief transition time. This is normal E Ink® display behavior.
