A nice video from the people making the band.
Machine-learning enhancements to canned responses is an awesome feature shown at 2"20.

OMG! I didn't know there's a smart reply! Why MS even didn't tell us..

Yeah, but does it have a smart-a** reply feature?

I believe all the cool reply features are limited to Windows phones (for now?)

This stuff is cool, but realistically, 99% of the time my phone is in my hand anyway. I do wonder what Microsoft Research could accomplish if they tried to reinvent the battery.

That's true of the Keyboard, but I think all versions have common canned responses.

I just checked: I have "I'll call you back" and "I'm in a meeting".

This has come in handy a few times when my phone was on my desk in other parts of the house, or when I'm in the car and my phone is in my pocket. Rather than trying to dig it out of my pocket under my seatbelt (while at a stop light of course) I just reply on the band. Just like a touchscreen was never meant to replace the mouse/keyboard, this is meant as an additional communication option.

I'm pretty sure you can customize a few quick text replies in the manage tiles part of the Health app, I don't think that's available only to Windows Phone.

Right you are! Up to 4 different custom responses.
