Jawbone has launched a new smart wristband, the UP24, that finally connects wirelessly with a smartphone app. The UP24 gets Bluetooth Smart (Bluetooth Low Energy) that will connect with the app and push notifications to the band. The UP24 is priced at $149.99, which is similar to the Nike+ Fuelband.
The UP24 will track your movement as well as your sleep pattern and will also push automatic summaries every morning. Users can customize it to send reminders via vibration to keep reminding users to keep moving and hit daily goals. Jawbone claims its battery would last up to 7 days.
“The UP community has logged more than 500 billion steps and 35 million nights of sleep with UP. It’s an astounding amount of data,” said Travis Bogard, vice president of product management and strategy at Jawbone. “From it, we’ve learned a tremendous amount about how people live, and we’ve applied that knowledge to deliver even more personal data insights and more actionable recommendations with the new UP 3.0 App. UP24 plus UP 3.0 is the only system that pushes incredibly smart, timely information to you at just the right moment to help turn your intentions into action. As a result, UP24 is much more than just wireless syncing – we didn’t just want to add Bluetooth. Instead we used the real- time experience to create a powerful, personalized system that helps you take action and fine-tune your day.”
