@Tennisguy45, To be honest you are kind of correct.. I have also reflected on my posts and most seem to carry a negative tone, however all the negative points I have put forward are the ones actually affecting my band.
(1) Charging.. I have no issues, in fact I am getting almost 48hrs.. Perfect
(2) Most calories burnt.. Problem. Mine is stuck at 799.. Doesn't matter how much calories I burn it doesn't change.
(3) Step count.. Problem. There are more than 3000 steps difference between my phone and band. However I don't know which one is accurate.
(4) Treadmill use.. Problem. Band cannot keep up with speed changes.. Other users have also noted this.
(5) GPS accuracy.... Fantastic
(6) Rubber wrist strap... Problem. Less than two months and regardless most delicate of use, very clear worn-out signs
(7) UV sensor.. Problem.. No readings
(8) Automatic light sensor.. Problem.. Others having the same
(9) Comfort of use... Fantastic
(10) Skin temperature sensor.. Where is the data going.
So when others happened to write anything relating to above, I contribute and share my experience.
I think most of the posts here are relating to a negative issue rather than positive one.
I have always told you guys that thanks to B2, I am even more conscious of my activity rate.

Nice to see some positives in there. For the life of me I cannot figure out why you keep having so many issues.
2. Your phone or band is stuck at 799 calories? If its your band then return it for another one under warranty, something is wrong with it.
3. No step counter is accurate, this is a proven fact that can be found at any reputable source of information. They all are estimates. Your variance seems to be abnormally high but I dunno.
4. Dont use treadmills so I cannot speak to this. Band seems to do well when I am running though.
6. I play tennis, run, and lift weights. My band does not look new but the rubber is not tearing or cracking. Is yours? If not then what are you considering "worn-out"?
7. UV sensor, never tried it but I added it after reading this and will report back.
8. Auto light works well for me.
10. Skin temperature sensor? Dont see this as a listed feature.
What I do see is this, which is used internally by the band software to determine how to monitor your activities and its not something logged for us to look at.
Galvanic skin response (GSR) sensors
The GSR sensor measures the conductivity of your skin between the GSR sensor diodes under the clasp. Your Band uses this information to determine if you’re wearing it, so it can adjust how it monitors your activities.
