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
It looks awful
It feels awful
Battery life is poor
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 Health app needs work
Expensive
Design is forgettable
Not waterproof
Needs more apps
Clunky and unattractive design which can be painful to wear
Especially at first
Short battery life means you'll not be able to wear it 24/7 as suggested
Pricey for a fitness tracker but probably more suited to the sportswatch or training aid sector

Этот браслет может очень многое, но он громоздок и недоработан. Хотя уже сейчас он очень полезен и обещает быть еще лучше, если производитель доведет его до ума. Причем не требуется делать очень сильных изменений, чтобы Microsoft Band стал очень хорошим у...
Abstract: Специалисты из Microsoft закончили работу над необычным гаджетом, являющимся чем-то средним между наручными часами, мобильным компьютером и медицинским оборудованием. Устройство, созданное в лабораториях Редмонда, называется Microsoft Band и является одни...
Лично меня браслет порадовал. Недостатка, как по мне, всего два: габариты (объясняется большим количеством всевозможных датчиков) и отсутствие поддержки кириллицы (исправится с приходом браслета в наши страны). Хотя, честно говоря, хотелось бы побольше ав...
