I've been using Jawbone UP bands since 2012. They are great when they work but break rather quickly. They do a good job of replacing while under warranty typically but that gets annoying. I bought the UP3 on 8/13 and it stopped working on 9/10, so not even a full month.

I really wanted to like this, but sadly Jawbone has not added active heart rate monitoring yet and that was one of my reasons for purchasing. Another big issue was fit. With only 1 size, when tight enough to be on properly per the instructions, it was uncomfortable when turning or flexing my wrist. I'm a very small woman but this was not designed for someone as small as me. I really tried, wore it for a month, but after having to re-sync multiple times per day, reported sleep time being way off(had to manually adjust every morning), and step count not accurate either, I returned it today and got a Fitbit Charge HR. I'm loving it!!!! The HR tracks active & resting heart rate optically, so the band is to be worn loose, like a bangle bracelet...PERFECT for a small person. It is so comfortable, even though it is much larger than the UP3. So far the HR seems more accurate and although there are complaints about the app, I actually prefer Fitbit because you can sync to smartphone and/or computer(and it comes with a dongle in case your computer doesn't have Bluetooth, like mine). Set up of the HR was easier as well. I'm typically independent and not usually part of a heard(no iPhone for me)...lol. But in this case FOLLOW the HEARD....Fitbit has it more figured out than the others(have tried a few other bands as well)....they aren't perfect either, but much better.

I got the up3 to monitor my activity, heart rate, and sleep. The heart rate monitor function can be a little off sometimes, but usually it's very accurate! And the clasp keeps sliding down making me have to tighten it up a couple of times a day. I've had it for about a month and everything works great! Only thing is that I wish you could have it check your heart rate in real time whenever you're working out. It does monitor it quite regularly though.

I wish the store had the UP3 in black, but the silver is nice too.
I was looking for a fitness tracker with heart rate sensors, but didn't want a watch since I already have the Gear 2 smartwatch. The UP3 is perfect! It integrates well with MyFitnessPal and the Smart Coach is amazing. I love how it looks at all the collected data, compares it to previous data, and offers advice, encouragement, and hints to help along your journey.

I have really enjoyed by up3 by jawbone. I'd been thinking about which band to buy. So happy with this one. Tracks my sleep, steps, and heart rate. Very easy to use. I can also input my weight, water intake, food intake, get reminders for taking meds, there's just so many benefits. It's amazing. Under 100 dollars.

This purchase was a gift for my mother. She wanted a fitness tracker but didn't need a watch. It did have to look 'not out of place' alongside jewelry and work attire - most bands are a little too sporty.
This device had all the features she required, including heartrate tracking, and could easily be adjusted to fit her wrist (even those with very large wrists should have no issue adjusting the band to fit).
The app was easy to configure and had all sorts of functionality.

I had the up first and it stop working. Decided to purchase the Up 3, because of the heart sensor, but it kept falling of my arm. Overall a great product.

I have been using this for about a month now and am very satisfied so far. I like having the ability to have a very complete view with not only steps but heart rate, sleep evaluation, and diet evaluation. The only real problem I've had so far is the clasp doesn't always stay put. I have had a couple times that it almost fell off my wrist because the clasp slide open.

app for the phone is great. heartbeat monitoring,calorie tracking,workout assist and much more.

Mine looks and fits like a regular bracelet as if its not even there. I do stay on top of monitoring my activity which is pretty cool to see the results after a while. I like tracking my sleep but it doesn't seem to track daytime naps and add them to the daily tracker chart. I still need to read the manual but I must say its neat and helpful with setting alarms to get you moving again.

Very attractive and attaches well. The info it gives is correct and the program has many great features when linked to other apps. It has however filed to link with my iPhone and iPad requiring having to re-link which is a real problem since you must attach the band to the charger and then plug them into an outlet, then remove and wait. Not a good feature. It also says 7 days of power but I've yet to get more than 5. And the heart monitor only records your HR while sleeping. I'd to use it to work out with as well.

This is my first health tracker and I researched options for a few days before and actually was going to get the Fitbit charge HR, but Best Buy had a blast sale and the Up3 was only $47 so I figured a good way to jump into the market cheap. I wish it had an alert screen and I could see things without having to open my phone. It also misses syncs a lot and you have to open the phone to see your stats and refresh. The tracking seems to be accurate and there is a good bit of data on the app and menu logging but the ecosystem is lacking. The smart coach is ok, but it can be generic. Reminders you can set are limited and there is no online website to go into deep dives of your data. Only the app which is limited. It holds a charge for a good 5-6 days so that is good and it doesn't take too long to charge which is another benefit. It is very lightweight and easy to wear which is probably something you give up when you go for the fancier bands/watches so that is the tradeoff. For a first and cheap jump into the market place I am satisfied but when I repurchase I will most likely go for one with more features.

I have the Up through its evolvement. I lime this band so far as well as the app. I would recommend they redesign the band clasp. It fell off in the washer and went through the entire wash cycle. It synched right up and continues to work

I love this. It counts my steps, and even checks my heart rate during sleep. It is easy to use and connects via Bluetooth to my smartphone. Well worth the money.

I love the UP bands, but with this newest update, I wish I could turn on the stopwatch function with out my phone. I love that I no longer need to put it on sleep mode. Wireless updates are also a huge plus
