Jawbone UP3 - The world's most advanced activity tracker

@nikitakorotaev This year (2014).

@tymrtn Phone misses about 20% of steps because it isn't always on the body. And of course sleep tracking is one of the most interesting things that being on the body makes easy.

@tymrtn Most phone trackers require that you walk for 30 secs+ before they pick up your steps, so even if you do put your phone in your pocket all the time, you'll miss a lot of your steps around the house because you don't move for long enough periods. Having said that, Jawbone overestimates my steps way more than Fitbit or the Misfit Shine, so I can easily get 2,500-3,000 steps in a day with my UP24 without leaving my house at all (and it's a tiny bedsit).

@tymrtn While I do love my iPhone 6 Plus, I can't see myself carrying that everywhere I go like a newborn. It's just too much.

@michael_xander It's nice... but not completely necessary. Most of my winter workout is on a stationary cross trainer, or other machine; so I'm not going anywhere cool anyway.

@michael_xander There is a big challenge with that. The act of putting in 24/7 GPS tracking means it's something you won't wear 24/7 because it grows a lot. The reality is you can get this by using your phone for the GPS tracking since that is on you for all the major movements. The movements within places where phone may be on charger or off body, is less likely to have much delta from a GPS perspective. See link right above for URL to more context.

@basprass I can see it just fine. Browsing from Eindhoven on Safari. (the browser, not an expedition to observe animals in their natural habitat).

@marckohlbrugge Safari works indeed, Chrome (or my cache) is the problem.

@nickatloot Pre-order is now up.

@travisbogard awesome thanks!

@cyborgnation There will be many many more. It is created as a design platform.

@andyfortson Same.

@kchau Very different use cases between the products. Size matters a lot if you want a 24/7 device. If you want smart watch, bigger is likely ok trade-off for size, but means it will come off frequently. More context: https://jawbone.com/blog/jawbone...
