Can't read your heart rate with the band on; screen is not always on, and terrible in bright daylight; not waterresistant
A new wristband and new firmware improve the Pulse and make it a true fitness band, but it's not a big leap forward over last year....

It weighs 8g, small size, plenty of information (when it works), smartphone Bluetooth sync and app support, online data analytics, keep an eye on your walking progress, full Withings ecosystem available
So small and light it's easy to misplace, pulse element ceased to work on occasion, won't accurately measure cycling as steps, battery life should be better, not waterproof, inaccurate measures, not a full-time heart rate monitor
For all its good Pulse hasn't totally connected with us. But then it might with you. It's all about where you're at. For some the Pulse will be a miracle product. For others, like us, it's not really something we need. For beginners, or those who a...
Compact design, Easy to use, Great battery life, Useful heart rate monitor
No syncing via USB, Screen brightness is poor
The Withings Pulse packs a lot into such a small body. It's so easy to use, has a great battery life and has the unique features that make it the best fitness tracking device to buy right now. Your move Fitbit and Jawbone…Next, read our round-up of the be...
When you first open up the packaging, you'll see that the Pulse is absolutely tiny. It weighs just 8g, and measures up at just 8mm thick, and 43mm long. So it'll fit in any pocket with plenty of room for your keys or phone. In the box you'll find the Pulse itself, a micro-USB cable for charging, a chunky silicone case, and a wristband to wear when you're sleeping. Setting up the Pulse is a cinch,
To use the Pulse, you have to sync through your smartphone or tablet, which can be annoying. The bundled USB cable is just for charging, so you can't beam your info over through your laptop or PC if your phone or tablet is out of juice.We also found that the Pulse wouldn't jump into Running mode automatically, meaning we couldn't check the distance we ran or how long it took. That could just be b
There's not much to fault the Withings Pulse on: it's a simple, understated device that you can stick right in your pocket and it'll track your activity for well over a week. Plus it can sync with a wide range of devices and measure your heart rate. If...

Not showersafe, Easy to misplace (leave in pockets, etc)
This tiny device became available in August 2013 and is well worth considering. While product quality and user feedback are only just becoming available, initial feedback is positive and on paper the device has many of the key features that make a stand-o...

Abstract: I sit at a desk too much. I drink too much coffee. I don't sleep very well. I have an odd feeling those three things might be connected. This thing on my wrist agrees with that assessment.After a few months of wearing and interacting with a fitness tracke...
Long battery life. Includes both wristband and clip. Measures steps, distance, calories burned, elevation, sleep, heart rate, and blood-oxygen level.
Requires mobile device; not compatible with Windows or Mac. Heart rate readings not continuous and inconsistent in testing. Difficult to use during activity. Data displays could be improved
The Withings Pulse O2 activity tracker packs a lot of features, but isn't the easiest device to use in day-to-day life, especially if you're active....
