9.0 The Sony Smartband is a great first effort by Sony that's lightweight with exceptional battery life and is a perfect all around package for anyone looking to keep track of their daily life while maintaining some casual fitness....

Sony's SmartBand is a lightweight simple device that's easy to set up and has a companion app that's packed with features. It's dust and water proof and has a great battery life
Some tracking results didn't seem overly accurate and some of the features weren't very useful. The design is also a bit bland, and its not great for real fitness junkies
The SmartBand is an ambitious recipe that needs a little more time in the oven. There are better trackers on the market....

Innovative, versatile design. Waterproof. Beautiful app. Lots of graphs for stats lovers.
Finicky band closure. Complicated setup process. Confusing notifications. Rudimentary fitness tracking capabilities. Virtually useless media controls
Part activity tracker, part notifications accessory, and part journaling tool, the Sony SmartBand SWR10 has a lot of potential, but needs more refinement....
Extremely lightweight and compact, you can almost forget you’re wearing it, Works with all Android 4.4 phones, Water resistant with IP58 certification, 5day battery life, Sleep monitoring is nice, and silent alarm is great too
Setting it up is a bit too lengthy of a process, No way to track any other types of exercise apart from walking and running, No display at all
The Sony SmartBand SWR10 is now sold for $100, a price that is not too high given that the competing FitBit Flex is also sold for $100, while the Nike FuelBand+ is priced significantly higher, at $150.For all it aims to do, though, the SmartBand delive...
Abstract: Way late in the fitness tracker game, Sony knew it had to come up with something unique in order to stand out from the growing market. If the Wellograph is designed for suits, the Sony SmartBand is designed for narcissists. Yeah, the device can track if y...

I wanted to like the Sony Smartband, but I`m not sure I do. The overriding pain of having to re-connect it constantly was enough to really sour my experience with it, despite the fact that it's so comfortable to wear.Sony, Jawbone, Fitbit, LG, Huawei – an...
Great design, Attractive application, Detailed analystics
Poor exercise companion
Sony's SmartBand is another wearable unsure of its focus. It fails as an exercise companion because of its limited support, while its diligent approach to phone monitoring is an answer to a question no one has asked. This wearable could benefit from doing...

No. It's bad. And it's $159 in Australia. There are some big ideas here, and while I'm not convinced that all the lifelogging is really something a lot of people want, regardless, this device does it poorly. It feels like Sony had a brainstorm session, tr...
A fitness band that's about more than just fitness: it logs more than just your steps, calorie loss, and sleep patterns, with information stored about what you're doing through the course of a day and where you do it; Can be set to automatically switch in
No app for iOS or Windows Phone (we can excuse Windows Phone, but this should be available on both Android and iOS, since they're the major mobile operating systems); Not waterproof enough for a swim; Information can't be shared on social networks; Not al
Sony's take on the wearable fitness tracker is a little different from everything else we've seen thus far, and actually a nice diversion, which some interesting possibilities.We quite like the idea of finding out how much time we're wasting away over the...
