Unlike its predecessor though, the UP3 is a one-size fits all affair that looks more 'jewellery' than 'gadget'. Jawbone has again turned to Swiss designer Yves Béhar for the design of the UP3 – the same chap who came up with the flexible fit of the UP24.

Water-woes aside, was it worth the wait? We've had the UP3 strapped on for a couple of months now (with the new firmware fully loaded), so read our full Jawbone UP3 review to find out. The UP2 will retail for $100 and is available now at Amazon.At $179.99, it's not the cheapest fitness tracker on the market either – $50 more than the Fitbit Charge HR and $80 more than Jawbone's own more than capable UP2. This simplification will hopefully further ensure device reliability. Also noteworthy is that the capacitive touch interface removes the need for a physical button to change modes, in turn simplifying the product. Both devices feature LEDs hidden under the shell of the device that indicated modes which are changed by tapping on the surface. The UP2 shares the same band design as the UP3. The advantage here is twofold: fewer potential entry points for moisture and no more charging cap to remove and lose. Small contacts on the underside of the band magnetically mount to a short USB dongle. The difference is an added NFC chip to support secure contactless payments with a paired American Express card.Īll of the new UP devices will share a common charging format. The UP4 is still a few months out and will cost $200, but will look and feel like an UP3. It’s available in black or silver for $180. Given the advances in design and technology, combined with the sordid history of the original UP, it’s no wonder Jawbone took their time to get this one out the door. Though announced many moons ago, the UP3 is finally shipping, with the first customers receiving their bands next week. Gaining insight and the opportunity to improve both of these will surely prove invaluable. Deep sleep is what we need to regenerate whereas REM sleep is what we need to be smart and creative. Heart rate data combined with movement tracking can differentiate REM sleep from deep sleep, a split not before trackable by UP. Where we get most excited, though, is the implications for sleep tracking. Activity and diet habits can now be correlated to your resting heart rate, which in turn give a measure of overall fitness. Workouts can automatically be recognized and logged. The addition of heart rate monitoring sensors on the UP3 opens a door to many new aspects of health tracking.

And though the heart rate and skin temperature sensors in the UP3 are spread around the inside of band, we didn’t find them noticeable. Those electronics have also been miniaturized, reducing the overall volume of the splash-proof device. The first versions-UP and UP24-had bulk around the sides and underside which some people found distracting the new versions have concentrated most of the electronic parts to the top of the device affording a slimmer band.

Plus Jawbone will play nicely with Apple Watch as it already does with Health Kit, both sharing and utilizing data within the iOS app ecosystem.Īs we’ve found over the last couple of days, the latest generation of UP bands is significantly more comfortable to wear. Though many anticipate the first deliveries of Apple Watch later this month, the UP (and similar devices) remains relevant for its seven-day battery life and ability to track sleep data. The UP2 replaces the UP24, the UP3 adds cardiovascular and temperature tracking and the UP4 layers in contactless payments through an unexpected American Express partnership. Jawbone, an early mover in the wearable fitness tracker category, today announced two new products and shared updates on a third.
