Bandai Namco - Digimon - Vital Hero Interactive Fitness Tracker/Digital Watch/Virtual Pet (White) (Japan Import Ver.)

As someone that had a Gen 1 and a Gen 2 digivice, the new Vital Bracelets are great and so much fun. Using the app to connect and interact, play online, manage multiple Digimon and many other things, it makes everything much more interesting, interactive and feel like it all matters and means more.The Digimon evolution times are fairly spaced out, having goals and other little objectives to do keeps gameplay interesting. The battery on mine seems to last me about 36 hours. (Maybe a little less) I usually charge it every night or just an hour or so before I leave the house.

The real world Digivice is a device that keeps evolving since it's first iteration.1. Does what a fit bit does. - You can get more missions/challenges from the app.(known as special) - Normal are distance missions.(perfect for people that go to work and don't sit most of the day) - Hard is where the exercise regiments are.(Digimon needs to a Rookie first)2. Your Digimon trains while you have the VB attached. - You don't have to do the onboard fitness targets . - Your Digimon (more specifically Pulsemon) Digivolution will be based on your exercise/movement routine.3. Online connectivity via the app. - Load boosters and support items for your Digimon to utilize while battling/training/recovering. - There are arena battles. This is done via setup the battle> do battle with a meter for critical hits> hopefully your Digimon is victorious as this is a way to increase their vitals and mood.4. Are there non-online battles? - Yes, and you can watch them. - Achieved by completing the goals during the adventure missions. - You need to know when to throw in the towel for your Digimon cause they can die if they take too many losses in one day. Stop the adventure and let them rest. - The Vs dim card is used for in-person battles5. Do I have to keep the VB all day? - Depending on your Digimon's personality and your exercise routine he/she will go to sleep for 12hrs. (Mine is an 8 to 8 mon.) This is a good time to take it off. - It ain't waterproof so take it off before the bath or any other water activities. - Apparently very cold temperatures can affect the device as well.(Keep it warm during this time)6. Digimon Personality - Yes they have one and will let you know too with emotions. - You can have a better look at effects in the app(Globally released btw) - It is also tied to their Digivolution stats. - Your Digimon maybe tired when you are tired. - You can reset the Digimon if he/she has reached max and maybe you want to try to access the other Digivolution paths.Overall- This is a Digivice which rewards you Digimon with power based on your real world activity. The only bad part is that the waterproofing is not a part of the device yet, not even in the latest revision the Digivice V.

All in all. A good product. If you don’t care about the devices color or starting digimon, get the cheapest one you can get that is new. Picture attached is using the screen protector(which has some bubbles in it and most of them have gone away). See below for more specifics. (1: Device uses/guide, 2: Digimon training, 3: Vital Bracelet Digimon Lab)1: This measure time, heart rate, and steps. The digimon have different awake/sleep cycles which the vital values increase only when awake. As a 2nd shift worker this can be a hassle when training as I am not active during the normal wake cycles. I do like how we can manually choose the time, I set this to be behind by a few hours so the digimon “awake” time is the same as mine to get full benefit for training the digimon. I also recommend checking out the guide for this product on humulos.com, as the instructions included are in Japanese. For English speakers and other languages, check out humulos.com which will tell you a lot.(I just found this website when trying to look up the guide/user manual in english)2: Digimon will digivolve as time goes on in the “awake state” they will not get more time to digivolve while asleep or device is off. some require more exercise(more miles(which is steps)) than others. If you don't wear/move the device for more than 24 hours, then the digimon in the device will die and you can restart by reloading the dim card. This is a great way to restart if you dont like what you get during digivolution. Humulos.com or the vital bracelet digimon app(free, no micro transactions) can give you the requirements to digivolve your current digimon.(Trophys, # of Battles, Win rate, Vital values, and time awake on vital bracelet). Each combination of these 4 values will determine which digimon it will digivolve to, while the time will be the same for when it will check those values to digivolve like a timer to get the objectives completed. The vital bracelet app will also allow you to store multiple digimon with worrying about them de-digivolving or storage capacity.3: the Vital Bracelet Digimon Lab app for the smart phone is a great way to save your digimon(if you make an account to save progress) it is free and no micro transactions. You start with a small number of storage containers, but with every new digimon/dim card added to your account, the more storage containers they give you for free so you can store them all with some extra. (I still havent filled all the storage containers)

My friend and I absolutely love this thing. The step counter is not very accurate but the quality is amazing and overall a great product. You do need the companion app for 100% enjoyment but thats to be expected. The whole thing is in english except the digimons name so if you're worried about that, dont. Overall its a good product, you may wanna buy a new strap though cuz these do run pretty small.

Not the newest model, but still offers entertainment

I got the vital bracelet a few days ago, and it's now my primary watch! As the description says, it is the imported version, so the box and manual are in Japanese. It's not hard to figure out even without the manual, but I found a few tutorials online that helped with the intricacies. The step counter is very generous as it's attached to your wrist, and the heartbeat monitor is not overly accurate, but as long as the resting heart rate isn't set absurdly high it won't affect the digimon. Only possible issue: the watch band is pretty small. I have small wrists to begin with and I'm about halfway down the band- but you can find extended bands online for this watch, easily. Works well with the new app (though not as well as the new BE seems to), I've had no issues there. It's a fun little watch with a basic pedometer and a super-cool digimon pet, I love it!

Muy bueno para jugar y hacer ejercicios básicos entretenido para niños y adultos seguidores de la franquicia

Es un buen producto fans, su unico problema es que la pantalla se raya fácilmente y el bracelete de color blanco se ensucia muy rápido.

Zu aller erst.Das Datum wird nicht am hauptbildschirm angezeigt sondern nur die Uhrzeit und dein Digimon sobald du es installiert hast.2.Die App für dieses Gerät ist nur für twei Dinge gut. In Deutschland:*als Charakter archive für die eveolutionen die du schon erreicht hast.*und falls du anderen kennst mit der app. Für eventuelle private battles.Aber da man die App außerhalb davon eh nicht brauch ... ab zu den Features.Das Paket beinhaltet dein Digivice... uuuhhm ich mein vital bracelet, ein kleines USB micro lade Kabel und die Pulsemon Dimcard es gibt auch eine Battle dim card aber die ist nur fürs battlen was man sowieso nicht ohne die app kann.Sobald man sein digimon installiert hat und Pulsemon daraus wird muss du dich darum kümmern indem du dich um dich selbst kümmerst.Mache challenges, wie zb squads und crunches, um Trophäen zu erhalten und geh ne runde wandern ... Ich meine geh und mach eine "Adventure mission" um Siege zu sammeln alle 500, 1000, 1500 schritte wird pulsmon kämpfen und dann entweder gewinnen oder verlieren.Fazit.Das man die app nicht braucht ist eigentlich nicht schlecht da worauf man achten und was man tun sollte alles die fitness watch macht.Dazu hat man nen Einfluss auf wie viel man tut und wann, da die Entwicklung von dem eigenen Anstrengungen abhängt ist das eigentlich eine richtig interessante Idee Gamification mit Fittness zu verbinden für Fittnessanfänger.
