The editors didn't like
Setting it up is a bit too lengthy of a process
No way to track any other types of exercise apart from walking and running
No display at all
Finicky band closure. Complicated setup process. Confusing notifications. Rudimentary fitness tracking capabilities. Virtually useless media controls
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
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...
We'd like to propose this is a beta product, and we have our reasons. First, having more than one app for a single device suggests this is meant for a platform. Smart Connect has uses beyond the Smartband, and we'd like to see a day when the tiny, white p...

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...

The Sony SmartBand SWR10 is now sold for $100, a price that is not too high given that the competing FitBit Flex is also sold for $100, while the Nike FuelBand+ is priced significantly higher, at $150.For all it aims to do, though, the SmartBand delive...
Abstract: Way late in the fitness tracker game, Sony knew it had to come up with something unique in order to stand out from the growing market. If the Wellograph is designed for suits, the Sony SmartBand is designed for narcissists. Yeah, the device can track if y...
