Jawbone Up | Nike Fuelband | Fitbit Flex | LifeTrak C200 |
|
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price | ||||
| Style |  The second most stylish of the bunch. Small, descrete and sexy. |  Slightly thicker than the flex and wider than the Up with a rubber finish. |  Sleek, small and thin with a matte finish. Sizing is great. |  This is more of a sport watch and not something I'd wear to a nice dinner. |
| Overall Motivation |  The lack of immediate feedback will eventually make this device a desk drawer gadget. | This bands bright LEDs and immediate feedback is awesome. The battery life hurts long term use. |  Great! I'd prefer an always on LED or screen like the C200 and with the sleek design I want to wear it. | Having a great real time tracker HR monitor and progress bar gives this the highest honor. |
| Bluetooth Syncing |  This is the worst part about the Up. Plugging in makes the motivation decrease. | Syncing the fuelband requires you to push the button. It needs to be more automatic. | This is the benchmark for wireless syncing by auto syncing. | The C300/C400 has Bluetooth 4.0 LE |
| App Integration | The Up has a lot of app partners but we can't give it full stars because you still have to plug it in. | With only two apps but a new API there is hope but the current situation looks bleek. | The Fitbit has the most apps in it's library and a great API to connect to. | The C300/C400 are going to have a library of apps. |
| Waterproof | Water resistant which is rain splash, sweat, and shower resistant. | Water resistant which is rain splash, sweat, and shower resistant. | Water resistant which is rain splash, sweat, and shower resistant. | Fully waterproof. |
| Battery Life | I received 10 days of battery life which makes it come in second place for the trackers. |  The worst of the bunch. I got around 3-4 days of battery life. | After 3 weeks of use I get 6.5 days of use before a charge. | No charging, uses a watch battery which gives 2 years. |
| Corrections | -8 Stars: Quality control. These break easily. -2 Stars: No LCD or LEDs. +4 Stars: Nice iPhone app and a great sleep mode. -1 Star: The cap falls off too easily to get lost. | +1 Star: Doubles as a watch. -4 Stars: The most expensive of the bunch. -2 Stars: No sleep mode. +2 Stars: Great app, support and community. | -4 Stars: Changes modes way too easily. +4 Stars: Also has a sleep mode. -2 Stars: Sleep info needs work. +2 Stars: Great app, support and community. | +3 Stars: Great active quick pulse readings. +1 Star: Doubles as a watch.. -2 Stars: No sleep mode. -2 Stars: Data is stuck on the device. |
| Total Stars: | 10 | 15.5 | 26 | 22.5 |
