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...

I wanted to like the Sony Smartband, but I`m not sure I do. The overriding pain of having to re-connect it constantly was enough to really sour my experience with it, despite the fact that it's so comfortable to wear.Sony, Jawbone, Fitbit, LG, Huawei – an...
Great design, Attractive application, Detailed analystics
Poor exercise companion
Sony's SmartBand is another wearable unsure of its focus. It fails as an exercise companion because of its limited support, while its diligent approach to phone monitoring is an answer to a question no one has asked. This wearable could benefit from doing...

Sony's SmartBand is a lightweight simple device that's easy to set up and has a companion app that's packed with features. It's dust and water proof and has a great battery life
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....
No. It's bad. And it's $159 in Australia. There are some big ideas here, and while I'm not convinced that all the lifelogging is really something a lot of people want, regardless, this device does it poorly. It feels like Sony had a brainstorm session, tr...
A fitness band that's about more than just fitness: it logs more than just your steps, calorie loss, and sleep patterns, with information stored about what you're doing through the course of a day and where you do it; Can be set to automatically switch in
No app for iOS or Windows Phone (we can excuse Windows Phone, but this should be available on both Android and iOS, since they're the major mobile operating systems); Not waterproof enough for a swim; Information can't be shared on social networks; Not al
Sony's take on the wearable fitness tracker is a little different from everything else we've seen thus far, and actually a nice diversion, which some interesting possibilities.We quite like the idea of finding out how much time we're wasting away over the...

Inexpensive, Light and comfortable, Tracked data is truly useful, and not limited to health and fitness, Compatible with many Android devices, Excellent battery life, Waterproof
Lacks a screen, Notification feature somewhat useless, No iOS compatibility, Strap gets easily dirty, Potentially confusing and onerous setup process, Update: An earlier version of this article noted that the SmartBand's Core sensor was not waterproof, wh
The Sony SmartBand is an excellent example of a wearable smartphone companion that, by living on your wrist, improves the overall mobile experience. It's not the ideal fitness tracker, but what it lacks in focus it makes up for in features....
While the Smart Band is a really clever idea, especially when paired with the Life Log, I simply wasn't impressed with its functionality. I'm hoping that updates and future version will improve upon the design and offer better results – this kind of tech ...
Quick and easy setup, High level of activity tracking accuracy, Fantastic Lifelog app
Heavily dependent on smart device interface to work, Attracts a fair amount of dust
The Sony SmartBand is not a fitness wearable in the truest sense of the word, instead its best described and utilised as a smart device companion and low-level activity tracker. From this standpoint, the SmartBand performs extremely well and helps in furt...
The Sony SmartBand is a comfortable, customizable fitness tracker for Android devices. I really like the idea of being able to put the Core in different bands as I please, but in general some of the information it provides isn't very useful.Business Insid...
