RENPHO Smart Jump Rope with Counter, App Data Tracking, LCD Display

I’ve only used this smart jump rope once, but it works well! I was surprised to find it was battery-operated, as I prefer USB charging, but it conveniently came with batteries. The app was easy to download and use. The little tube included didn’t have a description, but I assumed it was for protecting the part of the jump rope that hits the floor. It was initially hard to push through due to a bend in the middle, so I cut the tube in half, which made it easier to slide over the rope. The length is adjustable, allowing my husband and me to take turns using it. The app and jump rope seem to track accurately, though I’ll confirm this with more use. It appears durable, but I understand the caution against using it on hard, uneven surfaces, which could weaken the cord. The bag it comes with is convenient for storage and travel.

I recently had to write a review for another brand's jump rope for the Amazon Vine program, and compared it to the Renpho model which I have had for 1-2 years. It made me realize how much I love the Renpho, so I’m including the review here: I have used jump roping as a regular exercise of mine for years, and own at least a dozen different types; anything from $8-80 models. A few years ago, I started using a Renpho Smart jumping rope, and, although it’s not my particularly the best made or my favorite jump rope, I have used it almost exclusively several times a week because of the “smart” features. I base my work outs on the number of jumps, so this thing has allowed me to stop counting and listen to music or podcasts because it counts for me. I love it. As a frame of reference, I typically do 4000 jumps and it takes me 27-28 minutes. The rope on my Renpho has started to wear in the center (which happens) so I needed to replace it anyway. I had the opportunity to try this brand, WEGYM, through the Amazon Vine program, so decided to compare the 2. There are more similarities than differences, so I will mostly point out why I would absolutely recommend the Renpho over this brand: The app for the WEGYM is more confusing to navigate. It’s part of a multi-training workout app that incorporates many other (non jump rope) exercises. The Renpho is just a jump rope app. While someone else may want to also have an app that does core exercises, strength training, etc it made this clunkier to navigate for me because only a small section of the app is dedicated to rope jumping. It looks like they also sell some type of resistance band (“Rally-X”?), and most of the app is focused on that. While many of the features of the jump rope section WEGYM app are the same as the Renpho, it was also just a little more confusing to navigate (and I’m usually pretty tech savvy - I like gadgets). For example, there is a “metronome” setting which ticks while you jump, and I thought this was going to be a deal breaker, because it’s really annoying. You can turn it off, but it wasn’t obvious at first how. It’s probably just that I've been using the Renpho for so long and that I’m used to it, but it seems simpler and more sleek to use, even though the interface looks more rudimentary and not as polished as the WEGYM. Also, the Renpho let’s you compare your jumps, time, and calories burned to other users for that day, week, month, etc (just a little motivating factor) and I didn’t see that feature on the WEGYM. The main issue though, are the handles. They are on the thin side (about the width of your thumb) and are short and made of a smooth plastic. I typically like the thicker handles, just for the feel and grip. However, if you are going to have thin, light handles you need to have a thin, light rope as well (which I also don’t usually like). I’m sure there are official weights/designations, but I would call this rope moderately heavy (it’s a steel cable surrounded by a plastic sheath - fairly typical) and moderately thick for a jump rope. When jumping, the handles are not heavy enough to support the weight of the rope, so there is a lot of motion/toggle on the inner portion of the handles. This is annoying, especially if you are jumping for a while. I tried “choking up” on the handle, so I was essentially hitting the rope, and it still moved a lot. Basically, the balance is off so it’s not very comfortable to use for a long time. The Renpho, at the time of this writing, is also $8 cheaper ($17 vs $25) than the WEGYM, making it a no-brainer. I will say, though, that the WEGYM and it’s features are worth $25, it’s just the Renpho is a much better bargain. I think I’m going to remove the rope part from the WEGYM and put it on the Renpho handles. If it doesn’t fit (or is still too heavy for those handles), then I’ll just but another Renpho.

This is a recent purchase; Easy to set up the jump rope and install the app on my iPhone 9you do need to make sure you download the Fit App – there are a couple of different Renpho apps). I’ve used it a few times already and will start using this as part of my fitness routine as something different to do. It has been a couple of decades since I did a lot of jump rope, but it is kind of like riding a bike, you’ve done it before, you can do it again (well at least I can). So far so good. A couple of drawbacks: Older eyes require bigger print in the small manual. The manual doesn’t provide any guidance on how to connect the pieces in the box, but it can only go together one way when you start to think about it (and amazon does have a picture that leads you to attach the rope the correct way). The provided cable is a little long for me, but the clips provided do make it relatively easy to adjust. I would have liked a heavier rope (cable), but I’ve gotten used to it as is. I expect there is a way to replace it, but it has to go through the handle in order to count accurately. I discovered one issue which is of my own doing – if you don’t stop the timer it keeps going. Overall – good purchase and I look forward to using it more and more. I do wish I had bought it earlier during the pandemic when I stopped going to the local gym.

Overall this seems to be a good quality jump rope. The handles have a good weight to them and the count seems accurate. The app tracks jumps in real time which is great. The smart jumprope itself is great so giving 5-starts for that. However, as others have mentioned, the directions are a little vague. In particular around assembly of the rope. It instructs great on battery install, functions and pairing with the app, but omits any instruction on rope assembly. It may be common sense for some, but I had to reference the photos on the Amazon listing to make sure I did it correct. Not a huge problem unless you gift this to someone, then they’d have to do some research to find the listing and photos (unless they can just figure it out on their own!) Also their is mention of the device playing background in the manual (and in the FAQ on the App) and how to stop it from doing this. Mine did jot do this, nor could I figure out how to enable it to do this. Not sure if this would be a feature/benefit or an issue with the bluetooth connection to your device but might be a nice feature to have it able to play music/audio queues as you are using it. Again, due to the vague instructions I’m kind of uncertain about this. The other thing, in my opinion, the quality of the storage bag seems cheap. Seems like a cheap vinyl drawstring bag which probable won’t last. Would prefer a better quality mesh bag, but again this is just my opinion and many may not even need the bag. I was hoping the Renpho app I use for their smart scale would be the same for this product, but it is a different app. Would be great if they could have a dingle app that covered all their devices. Overall I am satisfied with this item/purchase and would recommend to others.

I really like this rope! I think it is so cool how Renpho is creating IOT (internet of things) devices to assist with your workout. Connects easily to you phone to track your workouts. Free application that is easy to install on your phone. I have their scale too, this application is separate from that. Rope comes ready to go, just adjust to your height. Smooth glide and rotation from the handles, as demonstrated in the video. I enjoyed the goal setting features. I tired timed jump countdown and also the jump countdown. Both kept me motivated to get to the end. I did the timed first and then set a jump goal higher than my timed rotation to see if I could beat the timed goal. I did. It was fun. The external motivation worked lol The guide explains to you how to hold the handle so you can see the screen, this information isn’t really a concern because my eyes can’t discern the screen while skipping. Left out a few instructions on how to use some of the pieces that come with it, but they are mostly easy to figure out. All in all, good value for money. A fun little rope. If you are going to buy a skipping rope, why not an IOT one?

The jumprope is lightweight and easy to use. The only issue is that I save my data once I finish jumping but for some reason it is erased and does not show in the app. My calories are counted on my apple watch but I would love to be able to use the app to track if I am jumping more or less. The first time it happened I thought that maybe I sat the rope down and it cleared before I hit save but the next two times I hit save first and it still did not calculate my jumps. I really like the rope and if you are looking for a nice lightweight rope this is perfect. I am going to test it out more with the app it may just be this particular rope. I know for sure I have jumped over 5k but it shows I only have 2198. I wrote down my jumps that showed on the rope each time I stopped and I was closer to 10K than 5K. It also shows in the app that I only jumped for 8 minutes but I have jumped for over 30 minutes.

Renpho delivered again with another great product. I've really enjoyed purchasing their products as they are always intuitive, well built and meet the need I am trying to fulfill. However, what I don't enjoy is the 5+ different Renpho apps I now have. I center a lot of my purchases with Renpho around my health -- it would be nice if Renpho could just consolidate each of their apps into a single Renpho Health App :shrug: I originally had this review as a 4/5 stars -- but as I am a typing this I slipped back up to a 5/5 star rating as I realized this product alone is great and my beef about multiple apps isn't relevant as someone purchasing this jump rope might only ever purchase this single product from Renpho . . . anyways rant over ;) The single most important feature on this jump rope is the ability to count how many times I jump. I am an avid cross-fitter and at times we will go around doing 400+ jump ropes during the competitive workout of the day -- and instead of being called out for "counting my jumps incorrectly" :) -- I can now feel every bit more confident and just flash the count of jumps on the app on my phone. It does an awesome jump of keeping a great log of your consistent jumps too. So if you do 85 consistent jumps it will break that out into a bar chart like stat as you continue to do your next consistent amount of jumps. The jump rope itself has a speaker audible on it that lets you know when you have hit your goal. The app on the phone does a great job of showing an "egg-timer" like countdown until you have hit your goal -- but the audible on the jump rope is my favorite. I can "zone-out" and not try and squint at my phone posted up on the floor in front of me. It is very accurate too.

Contador de vueltas, excelente para hacer ejercicio sin llevar la cuenta

Molto bella

Comes very nicely packaged and with everything you need to set it up out of the box. Comes with two diameters of rope depending on if you want a lighter or heaver workout. Fully adjustable as shown in the listing and length adjustments are just a matter of snapping the rope and the end into a little retention piece. Throwing in a pair of AAA batteries, the display lights up and allows you to start pairing the rope to an app, though it can standalone track the number of rotation it actually goes through as well. The tops of both handles rotate very freely so it's a very nice premium workout experience. In terms of cons, not sure how much I really want to keep using the app, but it is decent and works well. The thicker diameter rope had a small manufacturing defect where the sheeting had a bubble on it, doesn't hinder operation and likely just something that slipped past their QC, but worth noting. Overall, still very impressed by this product! Never had a premium jump rope before, but this really does fit the bill. Love that you can adjust the length so easily as well, without having to cut or crimp or tie knots. The fact that you can start with the thinner diameter and work up to the higher one is pretty awesome as well. Would highly recommend for those who want to do jump-rope as an exercise!
