Xiaomi Mi Home Smart Treadmill Features Noise Reduction Brushless Motor and Full Track Design

Working from home has become a popular and permanent part of our lives since the pandemic. Many people, including Gizmochina editors, now spend at least a few days a week working from home. This is beneficial in terms of comfort and productivity, but it can also lead to a sedentary lifestyle. Fortunately, Xiaomi has a solution for this. The company has launched the Mi Home Smart Treadmill, introducing an innovative solution to home fitness. The treadmill comes with a tag price of 1899 Yuan ($270), making it a very affordable option for those looking to get in shape at home.

The Mi Home Smart Treadmill is designed with a notebook-style folding mechanism, making it the perfect space-saving solution for small apartments or tight living spaces. Its full track design and fixed 4% incline provide a more intense workout experience, simulating outdoor running conditions. The treadmill features a running belt that measures 640x460mm, providing sufficient space for a comfortable run. One of its prominent features is the seven-layer flexible shock absorption system, which reduces the impact on the user’s joints, offering a smoother and safer running experience.

Powered by a brushless motor, the treadmill ensures noise reduction, making it an ideal choice for home environments. Operating at approximately 65 decibels, it won’t disturb family members or neighbors, even during intensive workout sessions. This motor allows the treadmill to reach speeds of up to 15km/h, and it can handle a load of up to 220kg.

The treadmill, weighing approximately 40kg, can be folded down to a height of about 210mm. It also supports full-house device interconnection, allowing users to link it with other smart home devices for a more integrated lifestyle. Furthermore, it offers a range of courses and supports various running modes, including heart rate controlled speed running.

Huami, a wearable devices making company from China and fitness startup Studio have partnered to launch a connected treadmill. During Huami’s keynote at CES 2020, the company announced its new Amazfit HomeStudio treadmill.

The first thing you’ll notice on the Amazfit HomeStudio is the lack of traditional front panel/dashboard. Instead of that, the user can control the device using smartphone which the content is delivered to a separate, vertically-oriented 43-inch HD screen that the companies are calling the Glass.

The Glass is a giant phone-like device that seems like a smart mirror. It also includes a camera that can analyze the user’s movements with computer vision. For those who are worried about the privacy issue, there’s a slide piece that can cover the camera sensor.

The company has introduced two models of the device — a premium model that uses slat belt technology and can reach speeds of up to 12mph. Then there’s AirRun, which a foldable version that reaches a top speed of 9 mph.

It also offers classes through the glass, enabling users to access a library of 1,000 classes across a wide variety of exercises. Also, not all the exercises are treadmill-based as it offers options to participate in yoga, sculpt and stretching classes on the floor.

Basically, Amazfit HomeStudio combines Studio’s content with Huami’s hardware expertise, and it integrates with Huami devices and other wearables to track heart rate. While treadmill is best for running, the Glass also offers several interesting classes.

Huami has said that the pricing details and availability information for the Amazfit HomeStudio will be revealed soon. While it has not revealed the pricing details, it said that the price “will delight US customers.”

In this era of smart devices, consumers are always looking for gadgets that are convenient and easy to use. And as we lean towards a sedentary lifestyle, we have to actively take care of our health.

Treadmills are an excellent option for staying fit, but they need a dedicated space as well as a significant upfront investment. This is where the Xiaomi Youpin backed WalkingPad R1 Pro comes to your rescue. It solves two major issues associated with traditional treadmills: bulky and heavy form factor and expensive price tag.

WalkingPad R1 Pro Hands-on: Design

The WalkingPad R1 Pro is a foldable new-age treadmill that’s super-portable too. Yes, I said portable, because the R1 Pro folds in two stages to convert itself into the size of a long but extremely thin suitcase. It’s so thin that storing it under your sofa or beside your cupboard is a cakewalk. It will even fit inside your car boot, which can be extremely handy if you travel often.

The WalkingPad R1 Pro features an aluminum alloy frame with EVA cushioning that softens the impact on your knees while walking/ running. The treadmill is comprised of two major parts: Deck & Handle. The deck is the heart of the treadmill which features the anti-slip running belt and the motor. The handle is added for balance and safety. You can fold the deck in half in the middle and lift it up to line up with the handle. The handle is further retractable and the treadmill folds down into a suitcase-sized device. WalkingPad team claims that this design saves space by nearly 90 percent! Plus, the treadmill comes with rolling wheels which makes it very easy to move it around the house.

Thanks to this design, the WalkingPad Pro R1 can be used practically anywhere right from your small bedroom, office, balcony, or even a yard. You should have no trouble using it outdoors provided you have a power outlet nearby.

WalkingPad R1 Pro Hands-on: Features

Despite its super-compact form factor, the WalkingPad Pro doesn’t compromise on traditional treadmill features. The treadmill has two modes: Walking & Running and the company offers several ways to control it.

For example, you can connect your smartphone (via KS Fit app) to the treadmill to use it as a control panel. This would make for a solid setup especially when you place the phone or the tablet in the holder provided on the handle. Or you can use the provided remote button to control the speed. Finally, the WalkingPad Pro also comes with feet control, wherein you can simply change the position of your feet on the belt to increase, decrease, or maintain your speed.

The treadmill also comes with an LED display on the front will show you essential features such as running speed, distance covered, and workout time. It’s nothing fancy but gets the job done. The maximum speed in the running mode is 6.2 miles per hour (10kmph) and in the walking mode, it is 3.75mph (6kmph). The handle helps you keep your balance and there’s a safety clip too (just like a regular treadmill) that acts as an emergency stop in case you lose your balance.

WalkingPad R1 Pro Hands-on: Price

The WalkingPad R1 Pro is currently available on IndieGoGo for $429 with worldwide free shipping. The project has already crossed 6743% of its initial goal with a few hours left. That’s an extremely competitive price, so make sure to check out their project for more details.

The tremendous growth in the fitness industry can be attributed to people’s willingness to spend a lot of money to lead a healthier lifestyle. As a result, the market is crammed with steeply-priced fitness products that monitor your health and help you achieve your fitness goals.

Alternatively, fitness enthusiasts sign up for an annual gym membership but do not go to the gym regularly as they eventually lose interest. In other words, exercise can be quite hard to stick to unless your commitment level is high.

If the treadmill you bought recently has now transformed it into clothes rack or you have already sold it second-hand, we got a product that will get your fitness back on track.

Dubbed as WalkingPad C1, this walking machine from Xiaomi Youpin adopts a foldable patented technology for enhanced portability. Once folded, the machine occupies only 0.4m2 area so you can easily put it under your bed, sofa, or desk to store.

On top of that, the WalkingPad C1 comes with digital remote control. You can track your fitness data in real-time in a bid to achieve your fitness goals using the Exclusive WalkingPad APP.
