The editors didn't like
Some tracking results didn't seem overly accurate and some of the features weren't very useful. The design is also a bit bland
Although we didn't very long to look at the SmartBand and Core, we liked the design and the feel of the device on our wrist.The amount of data the app collects and how it's used raises important questions over privacy, but it's a certainly a compelling pr...
Logs physical and digital activities, Waterresistant, Neat UI on the Lifelog app, Smart wake up alarms, Good battery life, Attractive pricing
Hohum design, Misses out on social sharing, Media playback is iffy, Needs support for controlling more thirdparty apps, Needs a way of distinguishing different notifications

Logs more than just physical activity, Waterproof, Comfortable, Easy to set up
Battery life could be better, No social features, Disappointing selection of third-party apps
I think there's a trick being missed here. As it stands, the SmartBand feels like it's living up to about 75 percent of its true potential. Lifelog is clearly meant to be the focus. The app isn't perfect -- I'd love to be able to drill down into even more...

Small and light desig, Different color band option, Good sleep tracking
Only works with Android 4.4 device, Involved setup proces, Finicky smartphone remote contro, No diet tracking
Sony's SmartBand tracks your daily activity as well as what you do on your smartphone, but the information it gathers isn't all that useful. No, it's not just a fitness band. Sony's $99 SmartBand is designed not just to record your daily movem...

Abstract: It was announced a few months back, but the SmartBand was finally available in the last two weeks. I picked this up on a whim, and it's been on my wrist since then. How has it performed? Not so bad, especially if you have an Xperia phone.The SmartBand is...

Some tracking results didn't seem overly accurate and some of the features weren't very useful. The design is also a bit bland, and its not great for real fitness junkies
The SmartBand is an ambitious recipe that needs a little more time in the oven. There are better trackers on the market....

Innovative, versatile design. Waterproof. Beautiful app. Lots of graphs for stats lovers.
Finicky band closure. Complicated setup process. Confusing notifications. Rudimentary fitness tracking capabilities. Virtually useless media controls
Part activity tracker, part notifications accessory, and part journaling tool, the Sony SmartBand SWR10 has a lot of potential, but needs more refinement....
