I've heard that the first production run of Band 2s were the faulty ones. I bought one last October, when they were first released. While I didn't have issues with the material of the Band, dead spots on the screen developed by December. I returned it, and got a new one with a different batch number from my original. The second one has been flawless for me.

I bought mine on day 1 and so far haven't had any issues with it. Material is good, screen is good, working great.

Mine has been working flawlessly since May this year.

Bought mine December last year. Not one issue.

I never had, knock on wood Two months on it day and night non-stop. Working like a charm.

Probably didn't knock on real wood... It just cracked yesterday... On my way to the MS store, hopefully they have replacements...

Interesting that y'all have had no issues. Both my first unit and the replacement had issues in the strap.

I've had no issues. Wait. That's not true. I'm on the THIRD band in 10 months. The build quality of both band 1 and 2 was very, very poor. That said, I wish MS had stuck with it and continued to develop and refine it. When this band dies (and it will), that'll be the end of the journey. Kind of makes you wonder what they'll do with the health app.

Also makes me wonder what they're going to do with 2 years worth of my sleeping, gym going, calorie burning, step counting, GPs tracking data??

don't know how so many people aren't having problems. i'm on my 5th one in under 10 months. first one broke after 4 months due to cracked band. 2nd, 3rd and 4th all died due to battery. either the band would just power off thinking there's no battery left or battery won't charge. just sent 4th one back and waiting for 5th one to arrive... I have a mate with a band 2 and he had it for 2 months and it just died with battery issue as well. i think the people in this thread really are the lucky few and the many complaining are the norm.

Had mine since June, have worn it pretty constantly since then. I go to the gym 3 to 3 times a week and so far all good, no problems.
