Zepp Health is now offering a new module for building a custom wearable, so to speak. Customers can potentially save money, and there are also extensive options for customization.

Some readers may already be familiar with the Amazfit Helio, which is a wearable that does not sport a display and therefore may be less distracting during workouts and might also be allowed in competitions where traditional smartwatches are not permitted. In addition to the Amazfit Helio, Zepp Health is now also offering the so-called Helio Core, at least in the US. The $70 gadget is available in three color variants, namely FireCore, SpiritCore, and NeonCore. However, the the required charging base or a Helio strap are not included in the box.

The Helio Core is likely a rather special device. Buyers only get the sensor unit itself, which of course includes a processor, integrated storage and the necessary modules for synchronization via Bluetooth. It is not immediately clear which group of users Zepp Health is targeting with the Helio Core, although an integration into proprietary wearables is conceivable. In the simplest use case, the Helio Core could be attached under a sweatband or a strap used to carry a smartphone, but attaching it to a leg might also make sense. For instance, this could be useful on leg days at the gym. It’s currently unclear if, when and at what price the Helio Core module will be launched in other markets. The Amazfit Helio Strap is currently available on Amazon for $99.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

My fascination for technology goes back a long way to the Pentium II era. Modding, overclocking and treasuring computer hardware has since become an integral part of my life. As a student, I further developed a keen interest in mobile technologies that can make the stressful college life so much easier. After I fell in love with the creation of digital content while working in a marketing position, I now scour the web to bring you the most exciting topics in the world of tech. Outside the office, I’m particularly passionate about motorsports and mountain biking.
