The Leon Pocket pro offers temperature control for the body,with the added convenience of smartphone connectivity. while the device itself has a button for adjustments,using the smartphone app is particularly beneficial when the Leon Pocket Pro is worn on the back,as it can be difficult to reach the device’s controls. The “Leon Pocket Pro” app is available on both the Google and Apple App Stores. After installation, users can follow a connection process within the app, indicated by a solid blue LED light.
Though, the wearing experiance of the Leon Pocket Pro did not entirely meet expectations. Over time, the device tended to slide down the neck, suggesting a weakness in the neckband’s ability to maintain a secure fit.The neckband, designed with a flexible wire frame and mechanical tubing to contour the neck, appears to lack sufficient rigidity. This flexibility allows the neckband to gradually revert to its original shape, diminishing its supportive function. The reviewer likened this to arms losing their strength and slowly slipping down. this slippage not only made the device uncomfortable but also reduced the contact of the cooling plate, diminishing the cooling effect and leading to a less pleasant experience than the cooling itself.
The placement and height of the ventilation system, responsible for dissipating heat from the Peltier element, also presented an issue. When worn with high-collared shirts, the Leon Pocket Pro became obscured. the device is more comfortably used with garments that lack collars or high necklines, such as t-shirts or shirts with a simple collar. For those who find wearing it around the neck inconvenient, the Leon Pocket Pro can also be attached to other areas with bends, like the arms or legs.
Priced at 299,000 won, the Leon pocket Pro provides both cooling and heating functions, making it suitable for year-round use. Nevertheless, the insufficient support from the neckband and the overall weight of the device are noted drawbacks. The device is considered more suitable for individuals in environments with less physical activity or indoor settings, rather than those who spend more time engaged in outdoor activities.
