Jawbone - UP Wristband (Large) - Onyx

I think it's an exellent tool to keep you on task to move. I like the alarm (vibrates) when you've been sitting to long. Of course you have to set that. Also, I really like the way it monitors your sleep patterns. It's a great around the clock monitor.

I bought this because it was on sale. At first I was worried because there are two more newer jawbone up out there. But with my need this is sufficient. It tracks my steps, it wakes me up, it reminds me when I'm idle for certain amount of time and tracks my sleep. That is all basically I needed eventhough it offers more than that. I am satisfied with this product and would recommend to my friends.

I've had the UP bracelet for a little over a week now and absolutely no problems. It's extremely accurate on the treadmill as far as calories burned, distance, and pace. I compared results to the machine I was on. I was also able to track my HIIT training. I run at 6 m.p.h. for 30 seconds and then turn it up to 8 m.p.h. for 1 minute. The band graphed this perfectly and there was a distinct difference in speed changes. ACTIVITY. It also does an amazing job of tracking my sleep schedule. The bracelet and app work together wonderfully in this aspect. By collecting all my sleeping data throughout the week, its able to give me an average hours slept and offer insights on how I can hit my sleeping goal of 8 hours. I'm currently averaging 6 hrs and 59 mins. SLEEP. It also does a superb job tracking your daily step count. After the week of tracking it was able to provide some insight for me. "A brisk 10 minute walk in the morning will help you burn more calories all day and increase your step average of 8,008 steps a day by about 14% - that's 7,980 more steps a week." It motivates you to help you hit your goals by showing you data from well... YOU! The APP. The UP app is flawless. It looks beautiful, works effectively and has many excellent features. You can set your "smart alarm", "nap alarm", "log workouts" and many others. The best feature about the app is the "Lifeline". It shows you a daily progress since the very first day you started. I'm looking forward to my friends getting the UP wristband so we can help each other hit our daily goals. SIZE. I recommend going with a size bigger. I wear a large. I'm 5'9 roughly 175 lbs. My wrist size is roughly 7.5". I normally wear a rubber wristband on my dominate hand (R) anyways. So I took it off at best buy and measured the size of my band with the sizes on the "UP bands" This is a good size for me, I think it's better to be loose then super tight and uncomfortable. The idea is you don't want to notice it's there. Downfalls: No bluetooth support. It's not a big issue but it could be better. I don't have a problem taking the cap off and syncing the band twice a day. It's kind of become a focal point of my day to gauge what I need to do for the rest of the day. The CAP! It's not attached! Somehow, I have managed not to lose this thing yet. I take care of my things and i'm very "OCD" in this sense, however I can see many people losing the cap left and right. If you are one of the people that lose your keys or personal items on a daily basis... plan on buying a sack of these things. So far the cap hasn't come off on it's own. Just make sure you're aware of where you set it down. Waterproof. I have not tested this theory and I don't intend too. However, I have gotten it completely soaked a couple times on accident doing the dishes and its completely fine. I don't wear it in the shower either. Why? I just spent $130+ on an "electronic gadget", why would I purposely try to ruin it. Overall------ 9/10 There's definitely room for improvement but the band does exactly what it says it does. It's the first of its kind to add fashion and personality to an activity tracker. I have people asking me everyday what i'm wearing on my wrist. It's fun to tell them and they are just as excited about it as I am! It truly does help improve your life and motivate you to hit YOUR goals. Great product.

If you looking for a great basic fitness band this is it. I got it on sale at Best Buy for 29.99. You can't beat that price. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles but it works great for tracking sleep and steps.

For anyone looking for simplicity in a fitness tracker, I would definitely recommend the Jawbone Up band. I enjoy the ease of use and sleek design. Some bands are far more advanced and can be rather bulky on the wrist. With this particular Jawbone, you can track your steps throughout the day and your sleep patterns. Also, with the Up smartphone app, you can add a food log as well as many other activities. I'd recommend this to pretty much anyone.

I HAVE BEEN USING THE JAWBONE UP FOR 3 MONTHS NOW AND HAVE HAD ZERO PROBLEMS. I WANTED TO WAIT FOR A SIZE XL BUT SINCE THE FIRST VERSION CAME OUT I HAVE LOST ENOUGH WEIGHT TO WEAR A LARGE. IT FEELS GREAT ON MY WRIST I DONT EVEN REALIZE IT THERE. I LOVE THE APP AND HOW EASY IT IS TO INPUT FOOD AND DRINK. I DONT USE THE SLEEP MODE I JUST ENTER IT MANUALLY AND THIS AVOIDS AND MISTAKES OF HITTING THE BUTTON AS I SLEEP AT NIGHT SOME HAVE SAID THEY WISH IT HAD BLUETOOTH BUT I DONT I HAVE NOTICED WITH BLUETOOTH DEVICES YOU GET FREEZING AND CONNECTION FAILURES ALL THE TIME AND WITH THE 3.5MM CONNECTION I DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT EVERY DAY IM EXCITED TO SEE MY PREVIOUS DAYS STATS AND THAT WAY I CAN CHALLENGE MYSELF TO INCREASE FOR THE NEXT DAY. I USE TO HAVE THE NIKE FUEL BAND AND THAT WAS NOTHING BUT TROUBLE IT FAILED HALF THE TIME AND WAS A PAIN JUST TO SET UP AND NEVER FELT COMFORTABLE

The UP by Jawbone is a great fitness tracker, that has progressed throughout the years. Initially, I purchased a FitBit (which was damaged from wearing in the shower) and went awhile without a fitness tracker. When I saw this item on sale for $30 I couldn't pass it up!!! The only frustration with it is that there is no way to sync the device except plugging it into your phone/computer. Taking this into consideration with an awesome price point, i really don't have any complaints. If you can find this for under $40, by all means pick one up!!!

This is my first fitness tracker purchase. I do like the features. The sleep tracker seems very accurate and helpful. The step tracker is pretty accurate. The smartcoach feature is great & very helpful. I was having issues with the app not loading my stats. The customer service reps were very helpful and since their update, I haven't had any issues. I do wish that there were more options for exercises in the app. Overall I am happy with this purchase as a first time user.
