Microsoft comparison ...

Stiffman

Ended up with fitbit blaze for now it's good enough for most lower level exercise and the software is more finished than Microsoft's currently. Then I guess if an amazing watch comes out I'll maybe move I feel their might be one this year either all round fitness or smart watch plus fitness pretty good...maybe Apple watch 2 who knows.

Just to update the microsoft band 2 has gone back.. I liked it but the max heart rate was hit or miss and battery life was in the end to much of a pain..
How you getting on with the blaze?
I have the polar a360 to try and the vivoactive being delivered next week.

Not
Hurt my back so only used blaze for walking/every day stuff and it seems very good at that but all these watches struggle at 150  bpm but it depends on how often you stay in that zone and if you don't mind not having those readings. It is a nice watch best to watch some reviews app is very simple and nice and hopefully more fit star exercises are on the way to the watch as they seem quiet useful...
