The First True Sports Music Phone with Innovative Coaching System is now available

The launch of the new miCoach phone, a collaboration between Samsung Mobile and adidas, comes amid growing public awareness of the importance of a healthy lifestyle.

This is the perfect device for people who want to work out and enjoy music and other multimedia functions at the same time.

The miCoach phone, equipped with a stride sensor and heart rate monitor, provides a comprehensive on-the-go personal training system. The phone provides training tips and time updates, and encourages users with music tailored to the workout.

With a few simple clicks, you can connect to the stride sensor and heart rate monitor and begin a workout that suits you! A personal coach will talk you through your run, telling you to either ’speed up to power zone’, or ‘15 minutes is completed’ (example). Tapping the phone twice will give you instant updates on the workout. The phone screen will show you a real-time visual display of time, heart rate, distance, speed and calories burned.

The miCoach phone also delivers music that will motivate you to exceed your limits. You can arrange songs according to tempo or motivational value, which allows you to listen to exactly the right type of music.

The phone also has a 2-megapixel camera and 1GB memory capacity, helping users capture their workout milestones.
