MISFIT FITNESS AND SLEEP MONITOR SERIES
And it's even more appealing in person than the Fossil Q Motion, a very similar looking tracker from Misfit's new owner.īut you do lose a couple of things, most notably the circle of LEDs that the Shine series is famous for. It's slim, sleek, comfortable and won't pop out. The black model with the – as yet not on sale – cord bracelet, or the leather bracelet that you can get for $20 extra, for instance, may suit male wrists more. That said, the rose gold model, with sport strap, that we've been wearing is definitely leaning towards a feminine aesthetic. While dainty enough to look good on smaller wrists, the Misfit Ray does a good job of staying fairly unisex. In terms of design, Misfit is keen not to be drawn into questions of gender. It looks like a bracelet, sits alongside other bangles or bands nicely and can be worn as a necklace. The round-faced Misfit Shine 2 clashes with most watches – people don't want two circles on either wrist – which is why the Ray heralds an all-new design. It was an even bigger problem for Misfit than most. This is a problem for the fitness tracker. What's more, people don't like wearing two devices – it looks dorky as hell and can leave you feeling encumbered. Whether it's that classic watch you like, your shiny new smartwatch/fitness tracker or some other piece of jewellery, there's limited space for tech.
And each wrist can handle just one wearable at a time.
That problem is thus: people only have a maximum of two wrists.
Well, it's actually the answer to a problem faced by all fitness bands. The Misfit Shine 2 was released just a few months ago, so what's with this brand-new cylindrical tracker at the same $99 price? Here's a new, slick looking fitness tracker from Misfit, but it doesn't do anything different. When we first clapped eyes on the Misfit Ray we were slightly puzzled.
