Mix between a smartwatch and a smart health connected bracelet, the Sony Smartband has just become available in the USA, and this, after the release in Europe a few months ago.

The Sony Smartband SWR10 presented at CES 2014 was currently only available in Europe for € 99 on the official store, and € 70 on Amazon. It's only now that the activity tracker arrives in the United States on its online store, priced at $ 99. As Sony announced at the conference earlier this year, the bracelet is slightly more complete than the Jawbone UP24, or the Fitbit Flex. He had also distinguished it from "activity tracker" by naming it a "life tracker" (nuance …).

The Sony Smartband is therefore capable of measuring steps or sleep, but it also offers features close to the smartwatch: it vibrates when the user receives an SMS or a call, he can take photos, or analyze the weather. It is also possible to use it as a remote control when listening to music on your smartphone. To retrieve the information, you will need to connect to the LifeLog application (available on Google Play, for free): the bracelet smart health connected silicone is waterproof however, is not compatible with iOS, and works in Bluetooth / NFC.

In the starter kit, two bracelets are included (one small and one large): the module that records the data must be placed inside the bracelet chosen: it is discreet and light (6 grams). You will have to choose beforehandone of the nine colors offered.
