Abstract: Heute Morgen haben wir unsere Freunde von Microsoft in Hamburg besucht. Neben vielen Windows-Geräten und Lumia-Smartphones hatte eine Produktmanagerin auch das brandneue Microsoft Band dabei. Der kleine Fitness-Tracker mit Smartwatch -ähnlichen Funktionen...
We had high hopes for the Microsoft Band: with every sensor under the sun packed in for a reasonable US$199, it looked like it might consign all our other exercise devices to the scrap heap. And it certainly has plenty to offer: we loved the guided work...

Comfortable, Crossplatform, Not too bulky, Sensorrich, Decent battery life
Microsoft Health app needs work, Expensive, Design is forgettable, Not waterproof, Needs more apps
The Microsoft Band has the potential to be the best fitness tracker, but the lack of apps and its overhyped Health platform aren't quite there yet....

The Microsoft Band works with Android, iOS and Windows phones, tracks all-day heart rate, has an impressive set of smart notifications, has built-in GPS for runs and can download workout suggestions
It has mediocre battery life; it's not swim-friendly; Bluetooth syncing and pairing can be buggy; the Microsoft Health app isn't that easy to use, and learned insights seem few and far between. Heart-rate accuracy seems to be a little inconsistent, too
Microsoft Band is an ambitious first crack at a smart health wearable that throws in a ton of features and cross-platform support, but it's just not as easy to use or as functional as it should be....

Abstract: The new Microsoft Band is probably the most ambitious activity tracker I've ever seen: It jams 10 sensors into one slim wristable. But after strapping it on for the first time, I really feel that it's more than just another handsome little metrics bracele...
There is so much potential here it's killing me. I love the Microsoft Band, but it's breaking my heart knowing it can do so much more.It seems as if Microsoft thought cramming fitness, fitness and some more fitness would make the band a feasible tracker...
Abstract: Microsoft has unveiled a new fitness tracker / smartwatch called the Band 2 . You can pre-order one straight away, and it costs the same as the old model: £199.99. That's the same as a Fitbit Surge : expensive for an activity tracker, but not for a smartw...
Abstract: Why? Well, in terms of features, it falls between an Apple Watch and a fitness band like a Fitbit. It isn't designed to take the place of your watch, so you can wear it just some of the time, such as when sleeping or exercising, and use a “proper” watch a...
