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

Not a bad price, companion app is really good, helps keep you motivated, simple to use, reasonably inexpensive, good battery life
Can get in the way at times, calorie counting and sleep tracking aren't hard sciences
We found ourselves quickly becoming used to wearing the Up. Yet even now, there are times when we notice it. Typing on a laptop can sometimes be bothersome, with it clattering away on the wrist rest, but apart from that it's comfortable to wear, lig...

Attractive design, Great smartphone app, 10 day battery life
Expensive, Limited functionality, No wireless, Doesn't charge while syncing
It looks good and it certainly seems to work as intended, but if you were hoping that the Up was something more than a pedometer in fancy dress, then you'll be disappointed. Especially considering that At $149 it is twice the price of most step-counters...
Simplicity is the UP's greatest strength, but for some people it's just too basic. The absence of a display and wireless synching is annoying, especially when the UP costs considerably more than monitors such as the Fitbit One which have many more feature...

Abstract: Jawbone's Up, the fitness-tracking wristband, first went on sale more than a year ago but ended up being withdrawn because of reliability problems. Jawbone redesigned Up from scratch, making it sturdier and fixing problems with water resistance. The ne...

Tailored health tips, Good battery life, Quick charging
Water resistant not waterproof, No wireless synching, Complicated food logging
A hugely impressive first offering for the wellbeing tech sector, the Jawbone UP is one of the best all-encompassing health trackers on the market but is kept from greatness by a few small niggling issues.While the nutrition section is touted as a key
Jawbone up covers a range of lifestyle issues although the food aspect of the program is rather too basic. Still, it’s neat-looking and simple to use although currently for iOS only. The only real concern is the Jawbone tip that covers the 3.5mm headp...

we found that the Jawbone UP2 under-counted our steps when we compared it to our benchmark device, a Fitbit Ultra. Over the course of a day, there were parts where the step counts were close between the devices, but at the end of the day, there was some...
Jawbone's premium fitness wearables are good products, but having used both we can't recommend the UP3 over the UP2 for everyone. Advanced sleep tracking and heart health monitoring don't justify the UP3's Rs. 14,999 pricing. If you're willing to spend th...
