Chime in: Should Microsoft make another wearable?

[Windows Central]

Are you a fan of Microsoft's wearables? Will the company ever get back into the market?
Wearables are a big part of the roster when it comes to the major tech companies. The Apple Watch, the Samsung Gear, and the LG Watch (to name a few) are all popular smartwatches that connect to a phone and provide instant access to notifications and more just by raising your arm. Microsoft was once part of the group with the Band, but that has since been discontinued, much to the chagrin of many users.

I still use Band 2 and love it. I'm on my 3rd, which I just Sugru'd, so I'll be looking for another Band 2 or moving on to Ionic. The Band 2 is a great device other than the strap cracking and battery eventually failing. I believe MS could have easily fixed these issues with Band 3. It still boggles my mind why MS would exit wearables after all that effort. I for one would have loved an improved Band 3.

I love my Band 2 despite the fact the battery is on its last leg. It was an amazing set up and design overall.
