The editors didn't like
Expensive
Limited functionality
No wireless
Doesn't charge while syncing
The Jawbone Up lacks a screen. It only syncs with iPhones and some Android devices
So there's no other way to view your fitness data. It connects via a less convenient wired connection
It doesn't have a display to quickly check fitness progress and there's no heart-rate tracking. The sleep tracking tends to overestimate and the band can't be worn while swimming
Not really an improvement on the Up 24 or Up Move
Except on design
Band can clip arm hair
Still no smart band features
So no notifications on phone calls or messages
Water resistance is less like resistance
More like restarting to deal with the wate
Terrible charger
Temperamental touchscreen
Compatibility issues with Android
No wireless syncronising
Food tracking hit and miss
A little expensive
Buckle a little awkward for us
Logging food can be a chore
Best results obtained when wearing it all the time
Not fully waterproof
$149.95
Despite being able to monitor muscle movement and twitching
It can't work out when to switch itself into night's sleep mode
Can't be used when swimming or surfing
Android app can be buggy and only likes some devices

Small, comfortable design, Great Jawbone software, Long battery life
Not completely waterproof, Fiddly clasp

Can only add friends you already know, No wireless syncing, No website interface only apps, Band ends are sharp, Hair can get stuck in cap, button, Can slightly overcount arm movements as steps, No screen on device means you don't have constant, immediate
This 24/7 wearable band is great for the absent-minded who tend to lose things, because you never have to take it off. It does an excellent job of tracking sleep and a fairly good job of tracking steps (in my case, it overcounted slightly). Great for smar...

Abstract: I sit at a desk too much. I drink too much coffee. I don't sleep very well. I have an odd feeling those three things might be connected. This thing on my wrist agrees with that assessment.After a few months of wearing and interacting with a fitness tracke...

While the Jawbone UP set itself apart from the competition when it originally launched, it can no longer consider itself the leader of the pack, especially since the retail price of the UP remains unchanged, at $129.99. Although it's been pulled from t...

Reviewers rave over the Jawbone UP's clever alarm, in-depth sleep tracking and holistic fitness app. "Being lightweight, very comfortable to wear, and extremely durable, it's the easiest fitness tracker to operate that I've ever used," reports Brian Benne...
I was quite impressed by what the Jawbone UP delivered in the way of accuracy and encouragement for a more active lifestyle which, funnily enough, also includes keeping track of the most inactive period in our daily life: our sleep. For less than 145 buc...
Abstract: When Jawbone's UP wristband was released in late 2011, I was excited. Then I was disappointed. The motion-tracking band seemed like a perfect step into wearable tech at the time, but its companion app wasn't available for Android. Whether and why Jawbo...
