The editors didn't like

  • 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

  • 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

  • Hi

  • Αυτό είναι το Band, η είσοδος δηλαδή της Microsoft σε μια ξεχωριστή κατηγορία gadget η οποία όπως αναφέραμε και πριν, απευθύνεται κυρίως σε όσους θέλουν να διατηρήσουν ή να μπουν σε φόρμα, ειδικά τώρα ενόψει καλοκαιριού.Έχοντας κυκλοφορήσει για την ώρα μό...

  • Stevig en draagt erg prettig, 2 dagen op een volle accu, De fitness tracker werkt prima zonder je telefoon, Niet gebonden aan 1 merk telefoons, GPS, De sensors, Geen zweetband, Microsoft HealthVault
  • Maatvoering niet voor brede polsen, Wat dikker dan mijn oude horloge, Geen 'wandel' modus, Weer een ander laad kabeltje
  • Om samen te vatten: De MS Band is een stevig apparaat, wat prettig draagt. De metingen zijn behoorlijk betrouwbaar en alle input die gegeven wordt maakt goed inzichtelijk hoe het met je (tekort aan) beweging zit. Als je eenmaal gaat bewegen, worden deze...

  • veel en nauwkeurige sensoren, draagt comfortabel, Werkt op Android, Windows Phone en iOS, Zet je aan tot meer bewegen, stand alone GPS
  • Nog net wat te lomp ontwerp, Meer apps welkom, Niet voor de privacyfanaat, Geen vervanging voor mooi horloge
  • Een vooruitstrevende crossover tussen smartwatch en fitness tracker. Veel sensoren en een goede accuduur maken de Band zeer bruikbaar voor zowel werk en thuis als bij het sporten. De horlogefan zal echter niet warm lopen voor het design en de software mag...

  • İşin ilginç tarafı Microsoft akıllı saatini Apple'dan alışık olduğumuz devasa bir lansman olmadan neredeyse sıfır reklam ile piyasaya sürmüştü. Microsoft'un, Apple gibi yüksek fiyat etiketli ürünlere sahip bir firma karşısında mobil ve giyilebilir teknol...

  • Microsoft Band 作为微软研发3年的力作,尽管在功能技术方面有着无可匹敌的能力。但不管是外观还是佩戴舒适性上,作为一款消费类产品,Band 的缺陷都是不可原谅的。如果说,微软到底看中什么,笔者认为,微软心中的主角一定是 Health,微软通过 Health 建立起自己的健康数据库,其目的不是让用户了解每次锻炼的各项数据,而是通过数据分析告诉用户你接下来该怎么做,从而达到改变人们生活方式的目的,可谓野心十足。购买建议Microsoft Band 的售价为199美元(折合人民币1220元),目前仅...

  • 199美元的手环从价格上来说确实很贵,很多人都是望而止步。Microsoft Band在外观设计上也非常一般,佩戴感也很一般我们很难去平衡它的优越性在哪里。但是微软并不是一家以硬件而闻名的企业,人家买的是软件。虽然Microsoft Surface平板电脑在市场反响还不错,但是不同于平板电脑可穿戴无论是在战略上还是未来发展都与平板电脑走的是不一样的路线。Microsoft Band在外观得到各种吐槽,但是在软件以及功能、硬件上确实赢得不少掌声。总而言之确实是一款值得入手的手环,就笔者身边的人来说也已经有不...
