I feel I can add a genuinely honest comment here, Ive had the Microsoft Band since November 25th, Ive also now had the Fitibit Surge since last Tuesday. The Band in my opinions seems better prepared for its use, Its handled all GPS based activities from the start everything from running...

Thanks for posting, I live in the UK and found I had to change the region to US un-install the app then install again and then offered the update

Also I do realise this is a risk of buying a product that is not release within the country of the buyer!

Also had the same with the Fitbit flex but so far (3weeks use 24/7) and no signs on any rash

I have the Skinomi seems good, I did however damage the screen protector but they have happily shipped a replacement so I can recommend the product and the company

The surge for me is the only other device that I consider "competition" and definitely a device im keeping my eye on mainly due to the claims of the battery life and its form factor. Initial preview/reviews are beginning to surface what I find interesting is peoples claims on battery life:-...

Hello I wanted to write up my thoughts after a weeks full use, I live in the UK and have been in the States for the past week I managed to pickup three Medium Bands from the Columbus Circle store one for me and two others for friends (Ive seen them going for ?280 on eBay which is madness...
