The editors liked
Big design improvements
Comfortable band
Easy set-up
The Basis Peak is a fitness-focused waterproof smartwatch that runs for days on a single battery charge. It passively measures heart-rate and steps
With little need for intervention from the user
Great looking new design
Much more thought out smartphone app
More features coming down the pipe
The editors didn't like
No heart rate band compatibility
Notifications are poor
Slightly expensive
Its swipe-based interface is almost too smart for its own good. Many promised features won't be available until future firmware updates. The watch isn't very attractive or stylish
And its mobile app design is far behind competitors like Jawbone
It all makes for a very curious wearable. For true fitness fanatics, the Basis Peak is unlikely to hit the spot. The inability to export data to other apps or record GPS-tracked rides and runs – not to mention the lack of any speed, pace or distance inf...
Abstract: This February, the Basis Peak got a new ability to display smartwatch notifications in a new firmware update. Does that make it a great smartwatch too? Ehhh… not so much. I just spent the last couple weeks trying it out, and here are my findings.Generally...
Big design improvements, Comfortable band, Easy set-up
No heart rate band compatibility, Notifications are poor, Slightly expensive
Yeah, if you want an activity monitor, and you want it now. At $US200, it's coming in on the higher end, but it's simply more capable and more accurate than any of the other activity trackers I've used to date. It gives you more data and helps you come up...
Great looking new design, Much more thought out smartphone app, More features coming down the pipe
Comparatively short battery life, Buggy app updates, Heart rate monitor drops out randomly
Sorry Windows Phone 8.1 users, you'll need a Fitbit activity tracker if you're looking for support for your Lumia device (or those small few with an HTC One M8 for Windows). However all iPhones running back to the iPhone 4S are supported, as is the fifth ...

Despite some smart features, the Basis Peak is a fitness watch that's impressively automatic but too limited and unfinished to feel like a truly great product....

Abstract: I've tested dozens of these wrist gadgets, but I've never bought one for myself. Now, I think, it's time. But which one? The Apple Watch? A Fitbit thing?I decided to conduct a little reality-show competition on my arm. I resolved...
Abstract: Actual watch on actual arm Hirsuteness sold separatelyBack in 2014, we reviewed the original Basis fitness tracker and, to put it nicely, were underwhelmed But a lot can change in two years and, wow, has it ever The fitness tracker market has really heate...

the Basis Peak Titanium does exactly what it says it will – it automatically tracks your fitness habits without having to fumble around in menus or remember to push buttons. Just keep it charged, and wear it every day, and the app will automatically tra...
Clunky looking design, There's no monthly view with the app, Features set pale in comparison to the competition, Finicky trying to activate the backlighting
Attached with an MSRP of $199.99, it's in direct competition to notable fitness trackers like the Microsoft Band and Fitbit Surge. Compared to them, the Basis Peak is a simple, no-frills fitness wearable that tracks activity with minimal interaction. Need...
