Lenovo HX03F Spectra Fitness Band

Lenovo HX03F Spectra Fitness Band Review

Chinese Giant  Lenovo has been focusing on the wearables segment of late, and has announced a series of affordable products. In April this year, the company launched the new HX03 Cardio and HX03F Spectra in the Indian market. Priced at Rs. 2,999, the HX03F Spectra is the more expensive of the two, and boasts of features such as heart rate sensing, sleep tracking, and an IP68 water resistance rating. 

• The display has a capacitive touch button below it
• An IP68 rating is a nice addition at this price point
• The Lenovo Healthy app has a great user interface

The LenvoHX03F Spectra has a detachable strap that can be pulled off to reveal a USB plug for charging on the tracker unit itself. We have previously reviewed three other fitness trackers in this price range with similar designs - the Ambrane Flexi Fit, Fastrack Reflex, and Amzer Fitzer.

The lenovo HX03F Spectra has a minimalist design, a dull display, and an occasionally frustrating user interface. However, the Lenovo Healthy app is neat and clean, with the ability to easily track statistics synced from the fitness band. Step tracking is irregular, sleep tracking is accurate, battery life is decent, and heart rate is measured decently well when in auto measure mode.

At an mop of Rs. 2,299, the Lenovo HX03F Spectra is a decent offering for a budget wearable, and there's high demand for this segment in the Indian market. While its battery offers a slight edge over the recently launched iVoomi FitMe, you might be better off with the tried and trusted Mi Band 2 from Xiaomi.
