31 Days with the WHOOP!

[@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep]

Ngl I'm not interested in something like this that doesn't have a screen and requires a membership. The 24-hour tracking is cool but a membership like this is kind of a deal-breaker.

[@mden2490]

Most people do not realize that there is No upfront cost for the device, you pay for it over time, mainly for the use of the software. I suspect that most finance their watch purchase over time via credit card, or through carriers, so it’s virtually the same in terms of “subscription”. Most carriers the contract is 3 years, and credit cards well that can go for years with interest. If you argue that you or others buy it outright, if you purchase an ultra 2 or 10 series titanium well that’s $700+ dollars. If you were to take the highest monthly term for Whoop which is month to month that’s $30 a month and I believe the lowest is $16.00 which has to be paid in one lump some ( one year term). If you take the highest $30 a month that’s still cheaper than the cost of the ultra and titanium and would give you two years of a subscription cost. When a new whoop comes they will send you the new unit at no cost. When a new Apple Watch comes you have to buy it, and most will upgrade in the two year cycle. Most are not saving money buying an Apple, sure their are outliers that keep their gear 5 years or so before upgrading but that is far and in between with most consumers, that’s why Apple and Samsung release new products every year.

[@thicknurman1949]

i dont blame you. as a full time athlete even im hesitant to put forth the money for a whoop. ive ultimately decided to go for it bc i know itll benefit myself and in the long run itll be much better to support me and my passions. ive changed my outlook on it since i pay monthly for many other fitness based things like a gym, strava, and food tracker - so for me, why would a whoop be any different? its really not. would i prefer to pay once and never again? of course, and i would say the same for every other membership ive ever bought. but considering the benefits itll bring, and knowing how much i care about said benefits, its absolutely worth it to me.

WHOOP WHOOP Jacklyn posted!

[@NBTJacklyn]

@@ShervinShares ahhhh thank you for checking this out!

[@bramdespriet1091]

When you take the uograded band . You get one band ? Or the black one and the other band that you chose ?

[@i4mPulkit]

One band is included, other one is just add on.

[@ScoopofScience]

I like the charging mechanism, kind of of like the old apple battery case. But it wouldn't be a bad idea to move the whoop around to let the skin breath.

[@Palvader]

These devices are fun and all, but I don't think anything compares to the Garmins for health tracking. The Fenix 6 is on-par with the Samsung Apple watches now, and the Fenix 8 blows them out of the water!

[@Justgambleit]

I agree! I did the whoop idea but don’t want pay a subscription based lol. I have the 6 pro and although I’d like to upgrade to epix or even the fenix 7 or 8 my 6 pro still going strong and tracking everything I need but will eventually upgrade my fenix 😜

[@NikolajSinik]

Hey did you buy the whoop from the website or amazon?

[@NBTJacklyn]

@@NikolajSinik their website!

[@roshartz9793]

Great review! Would love to see a comparison between a Samsung Ring (or other top rings) and Whoop, considering that they are both "on-body" devices with no screens. I know all the features may not stack up, but it would be good to see a comparison between comparable features.

[@saulramos79]

Why do we always get incomplete info on these videos? You were going to compare the step count for both the Apple Watch and this thing, and the count between them was way off, but which one is correct? If I missed this part, my apologies but these videos always want me wanting more info, in not a good way.

[@NBTJacklyn]

Hmm we mentioned it in the video and put it on screen? The Whoop undercounted a lot - 176 instead of 1000

[@saulramos79]

So which is right? MKBHD did this in a short not too long ago and his was over counting. Yours under counting.

[@NBTJacklyn]

@@saulramos79 they’re both incorrect - we set the baseline at 1,000 steps, so they were both off but Apple Watch was more accurate!

[@SomeoneBeginingWithI]

@@saulramos79 the whoop step count is based on the assumption that you're wearing it on your wrist and swinging your arms as you walk. If you're carrying something in front of you or pushing a shopping trolley, it won't count steps. If you're moving your arms in a way that it thinks is similar to walking, it will count steps. Sometimes it's an over-count, sometimes it's an undercount. It's not reliably accurate. Lots of things about whoop are good, and to me it's absolutely worth the money, but the step count is not accurate.

[@somethingelse25]

I like that it tells you how bad drinking is for you. I could have used that in high school haha seriously though, it's pretty interesting though I prefer a regular smart watch because I just know now not to drink etc. Great review though I love health tech too!

[@zebrahead89]

I wear my Casio watch daily and have a silver bracelet on my other wrist. Wearing this would be such an overkill visually, plus the membership system is not something I personally support. Thanks for your review.

[@gtleshow]

31 days with WHOOP? Sounds like a relationship status update: 'It's complicated' but in a fitness kind of way!

[@mden2490]

I know that you showed the discrepancy with the step count, have you uploaded the newest firmware (on 10/31) which I believe should help with that.

[@ignaciopaulito2186]

WHOOP, there it is! I'm watching Jacklyn's very interesting take on the Whoop 4.0.

[@guitarsz]

Hey, great video. What do you do in business? Just curious as a UCBerkeley alumni myself. Just curious what business track you chose.

[@jorgerangel2390]

Dr mike said it best, this devices are not mean to actually improve your health and if you feel like they help go for it but they are not a must to be healthy

[@JasonRaneses]

Sponsored, not sponsored. Late to be talking about the 4.0 in the scheme of things. Wear it for 30-60 days and you’ll realize the subscription is overpriced. By that time, you’re locked into at least a 1 year contract with unapologetic customer support.

[@kennethholden]

I am so insanely tired of everyone saying something change their life that they used for a few days or a few weeks or a product or a technology thing that changed their life like seriously please come up a better terminology. I found something very useful or something made an impact on my workflow that really helped me become more organized and efficient, but it changed my life seriously such an overused, simple lazy phrase please come up with something better.

[@NBTJacklyn]

@@kennethholden hmmm I can see this perspective but it did genuinely change my life? What would you prefer I say

[@mden2490]

And who to say it has not change her life? She has learned some insights from using the device about how her particular lifestyle affects her overall health and she modified those behaviors and she is seeing health improvements because of her changes, I would say that has changed her life! I hope that she has not used the title to simply garner viewers, but let’s give her the benefit of the doubt.

[@kennethholden]

@@NBTJacklyn it is not just you. It’s a common thing you see now on KZbin, phrases such as this changes everything, this changed my life, this is a game changer. I just happen to to be listening and at that moment they just registered Not everything changes our life it’s that sort of his reserve or something much more substantial than a piece of every day technology

[@kennethholden]

@@mden2490 I have no idea if it changed your life or not, it’s just a heavily overused phrase and all KZbin videos the same thing with the GRAPHICS out front with people’s mouths open, overused, or this changes everything it’s a never ending stream of this changes everything and it makes it means nothing When something actually changes a person’s life suddenly have no idea if it’s true or not true because everyone’s using the phrase constantly for everything

[@kennethholden]

@@NBTJacklyn the phrase is so overused by everybody, it was not intended just for you. It was just at that moment, but right now when I see a KZbin video and I see something like that I dismiss it immediately no matter who is video it is. In my opinion, something changes your life. It makes one massive change that literally alters the course of your life.

[@craigwoodgate7120]

Am I correct in thinking that with whoop you need a subscription to use it and that you are unable to use it without a subscription to the service. Where as the Apple Watch you only need a subscription for Apple fitness+

[@riskyroy]

Your dedication is amazing ✨ The way u test health-tech...u can review CGMs pretty precisely

[@NBTJacklyn]

Thank you so much 🥹🙏🏻 and that’s super interesting would be a fun video!

[@riskyroy]

Absolutely!

[@T3CHGY007]

WHOOP-ti-dooooo!

Thanks for sharing. Blessings on your day.

Outside of the massive awful visible branding. It looks pretty clean.

[@PedroHenriquePS00000]

WHOOP!

[@alam9ir]

I am facing a problem while connecting when I am trying to put sensor on pairing mode blue light blinking with white light and couldn't connect can you help me to connect my whoop?

[@Bailey-HOJOONG]

Good!🙂

[@GoBrand0n]

Whoop 4.0 ancient sensors

[@XTREMESagmentus]

Good video, however not a fan of that clickbait thumbnaik jacklyn. If this thing really changed your life, which is a really bold statement, you should have explained this in the video. How did it change your life? Aren't you living a pretty healthy lifestyle anyway?

[@Mathias_Beaufort]

It seems to be a good product.

[@yeti08]

Why is everyone doing full length ads now? It’s like you are buying air with few chips in a chips bag

[@onimashou8705]

Here for the "Whoop there it is" comment

[@ChargerInHell]

Their motto gotta be "Whoop yo a$$." Because that seems to be a very successful scam. Paying a subscription for a sleep tracker while you have many other choices without a subscription is ridiculous.

[@gregmccarter3243]

The whoop what a great name......

[@dylansousa5571]

Good video

[@M.C.N.1020]

Everything is a narrated marketing these days ..and life changes 😅..how things are so different then anything else is just to make you want it..😅 thanks for making its worth known

[@AmonRoxx]

"The WHOOP is off-body" 💀

[@AntisocialTrashman]

I love mine

[@mikoajmakowski5774]

It's really just too expensive with this subscription business model.

[@Verrazzano-e4r]

membership..I never buy it.

[@Starlite4321]

Subscription based ? Yeah, never - and I mean NEVER - happen. Next.

[@snithereens]

The strap in its own right: strong buy. Sinking myself into the next subscription? I’ll pass. You could rather give me the band for free and you can sell anonymized data from customers instead of dragging me into a subscription. It’s enough subscription economy already. Jacklyn: I like how are you deliver the message and how relaxed you are in front of the camera.

[@RahulDutta927]

💯

[@kennethholden]

And why would anyone wanna pay for something that they can get through so many other different sources that are part of your other product flow seriously why it’s one percent better 3% better has anyone ever run the metrics against other things?

[@GadgetsArise]

The Galaxy ring is simply better compared to this thing

[@nope8013]

The Galaxy Ring is a companion Device for the Galaxy Watch. As a stand Alone Device it is Not That Great.

[@davidjackson3221]

[@gorillamafia5144]

240 dollars for something that has no screen 😂😂😂

[@newfnshow031]

I'm from NY... it's just her wearing this trash. She will be back to shilling apple in a week even though this supposedly changed her life

[@davidjackson3221]

☕☕☕📽️😁👍

[@KNMK259]

I just wish the next model has a small screen, at least for the time.

[@prince_warhero]

Nah useless I’m not wearing something that doesn’t show time in my hand

[@DigiDriftZone]

I like the idea of whoop but their pricing doesn't make sense, an Apple Watch is £300, whoop is £50 + £229 per year - if you keep it for 5 years that's the price of 2 Apple Watch ultras... The data accuracy is also not as good as the Apple Watch for weight lifting, sleep tracking, HRV etc.

[@kennethholden]

It’s all Marketing

Ah wow thank you so much 🥹🙏🏻 so pumped you feel this way!

[@ValentinG23]

Lol ,it does what every other fitness tracker or smartwatch ,it doesn’t even have a screem so now you gotta spend more time on your phone and somehow it changed this girls life, blink twice if you made this review at gunpoint 😂😂😂
