Samsung miCoach Mobile Phone Review

samsung miCoach mobile phoneDespite its clean and stylish good looks, the Samsung miCoach is much more than an ordinary mobile phone; it is a fully functioning personal trainer, multimedia computer and mobile communications device all rolled into one.

miCoach System

The Samsung miCoach phone has been designed with joggers and runners of different disciplines in mind, from beginners to seasoned enthusiasts. Its aim is to assist you during your workouts and help you to achieve and surpass your goals; it is the ideal workout companion for those who need a little encouragement when it comes to self-motivation.

The miCoach system comprises a stride sensor and heart rate monitor as well as the phone unit itself.

miCoach Stride Sensor

The stride sensor is a small chip that fits on the shoelaces of your running shoes. It cleverly calculates aspects of your run such as stride, speed and the distance that you cover. This information is transmitted to your Samsung miCoach handset, which analyses the information to give you an accurate assessment of your workout.

Heart Rate Monitor

The Samsung miCoach’s heart rate monitor is designed to sit snuggly around the chest. It monitors your heart rate and communicates with you, letting you know when you need to increase or decrease your efforts to stay at the optimum heart rate. Like the stride sensor, the heart rate monitor sends information to the phone where it can be accessed for later assessment.

miCoach.com

Connecting the Samsung miCoach phone to miCoach.com enables you to upload and assess your exercise data. The site follows and analyses your fitness routine, even helping to plan your next sessions and set new goals.

Active Multimedia

The Samsung miCoach comes with a generous 1GB of internal memory, allowing you to upload your favourite music to the device and stay focused while exercising. If that all sounds like too much work then use the entertainment features of the phone to sit back and relax. Upload and watch your favourite video clips, enjoy a range of preloaded games and take advantage of mobile internet.

The Samsung miCoach even includes a 2.0 megapixel camera with video recording capabilities; allowing you to capture images and video clips then share them with friends via MMS and email.

Durable Design

As you would expect from a portable fitness device, the Samsung miCoach is built to last. Tough, durable construction, a slide design to protect the keypad when not in use, and a textured, easy grip back, all contribute to deliver a unit created to perform.

A convenient armband holder allows you to wear the phone on your arm, providing easy access to the unit and its functions while on the move.

Other Features

The Samsung miCoach mobile phone has a unique voice-coaching feedback feature; this can be activated at any time during your routine by simply tapping the device twice.

miCoach Dimensions

The Samsung miCoach measures 101.5 x 45 x 14.5 mm and weighs 80g.
