Lots of built-in sensors that measure useful metrics. The band gives you deep readings of some vital signs. Guided Workouts are a feature that could really help a lot of beginners get into shape. Love having an at-a-glance heart rate reading all day. Pret
Overall, the touchscreen interface is a big disappointment. It's not very pretty to look at and notifications are almost more of a pain than they're worth. The band isn't waterproof, so tracking your swims will never be possible, even if a developer wante
Not now. Wait and see how many developers jump on the Microsoft Health platform to actually make use of all the sensors. Also, it's worth waiting to see if Microsoft irons out some of the early quirks with its user interface.The Microsoft Band tries to do...

Sammanfattning: I've never worn an ankle bracelet like the one Lindsay Lohan had to wear while under house arrest. But after two days testing the Microsoft Band , I think I may have an idea of how constricting and confining those electronic monitors might be. The Micros...
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...

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....
