“Mini smartphone on hand”: Lemfo LEM5

The industry of both the production of smartphones and wrist watches has been bent for several years under the pressure of the stubborn and persistent Chinese with their exorbitant level of production.

Equipment

When unpacking the packaging received or purchased at the store, the following list will be found inside the box:

1. His Majesty, Lemfo Lem5.
2. Docking station, which allows you to both charge the phone and connect it to a PC.
3. Bag with 4 spare bolts for attaching the back cover.
4. USB to micro USB adapter cable
5. Phillips mini screwdriver.
6. Variable presence of a protective film on the display and an additional USB-microUSB cable.
7. The instruction manual is in English or Chinese, depending on the place of purchase.

Appearance

The box is made in a traditional configuration: black minimalist style with the brand name on the front.

We see a stylish round dial framed in a metal case with three end buttons on the right side. The watchband is resilient, pleasant both tactilely and externally. The watch strap is made of genuine leather in black.

In the shops to choose from, customers are offered models of 3 different colors: black, blue and silver.

Main characteristics

Equipping smart watches with a decent detailed base allows you to seamlessly and conveniently surf the Internet, receive and respond to notifications from Facebook and Twitter, and use e-mail capabilities.

The device has the following technical parameters:

• 1.39-inch IPS-touch display with a resolution of 400x400;
• RAM capacity - 1 GB;
• internal memory - 8 GB;
• processor type - 4-core Quad-Core MTK6580 with a clock frequency of 1300 MHz, assembled on the basis of ARM Cortex-A7 cores;
• communication standards and interfaces: Bluetooth0, Wi-Fi, GSM (2G), WCDMA (3G), GPS;
• maintaining telephony and SMS messages subject to the use of a nano-Sim card;
• OS type - Android1 with access to the latest versions of the system;
• maintaining monitoring of sleep, calories, heart rate, running / walking speed.

Functionally, the gadget has access to a timer, stopwatch and alarm clock.

During operation, the capacity of a non-removable battery with a capacity of 450 mAh is enough for about one day of use and for 2-4 hours of a full "load". If for a while you forget about the "brains" of the watch and use it exclusively "for its intended purpose," then the autonomy of the watch will last for 1.5-2 days of free use. A full charge of the device is achieved in 1 hour.

The device has an IP55 protection level: they are protected from dust and are able to cope with a directed stream of water.

Advantages and disadvantages

As a rule, we start with the advantages:

• The bright and, indeed, beautiful AMOLED display with a resolution of 400x400 is worthy of special praise;
• model equipment: the hands of the owner gets a complete set for easy use;
• a wide variety of "start" screens, which can be changed almost every day throughout the month.

Describing the shortcomings of this model of smart watches, the following notable features immediately come to mind:

• “Capriciousness" of the display in relation to the installation of new applications: the format of most of them does not fit the screen and goes beyond. The problem, however, is solved by turning on the “Interface Style” option in the screen settings to adjust the application to the screen.

Unfortunately for envious people and those who are looking for happiness, the category of “cons" ends at this point. Smartwatch came out in full quality and reliable, they are pleasant to wear and convenient to use. The functionality of the gadget is fully sufficient for its size and technical capabilities, squeezing all the juices from the available capacities.

For its "geolocation" with respect to similar models, LEM5 has a reasonable price of 6.8-7 thousand rubles.

Compare lemfo lem5 and finow x5 plus: which is better

For those who went deeper into the selection of Chinese smart watches, most likely, the slightly external and completely internal similarities of the Lemfo LEM5 and Finow X5 Plus models will not be a discovery. Both pairs of watches have exactly the same technical characteristics: the same display, a similar ARM Cortex A7 processor model MediaTek MT6580 with a clock frequency of 1.3 GHz. The price of Finox X5 Plus is quite a bit lower than the Lemfo LEM5 variant.

Summing up the question to a more categorical comparison, Lemfo watches are still better in some aspects than similar ones from Finow. Firstly, LEM5 have a more comfortable, flexible and stylish strap. Secondly, the Lemfo gadget is not much, but, according to Antutu Benchmark's analysis, faster than its opponent. Despite the desire to continue listing, there were no big differences.
