Hands On: Jawbone UP24

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

After around a week with the Jawbone UP24, which is available through Future Shop,  I feel it is the health tracker that’s best suited to my needs and lifestyle. It’s the lease obtrusive device I have tried, looks like a bracelet, the medium-sized model fits me perfectly and I enjoy what it has to offer.

 

The accompanying iOS app is easy to read and offers a good mix of information as well as motivational features to keep you on goal, suggest areas of improvement as well as give you an overview of your progress.

My only qualm is that it takes a while to get synched and see the latest information. I’m also not a fan of needing an extra dongle in order to charge, it’s another part that’s easy to misplace.

In terms of design, functionality, ease of use and the great 5-7 day battery life on a single charge, the Jawbone UP24 is the ideal health tracker for anyone that doesn’t need a smart watch or who doesn’t want to call attention that they’re wearing a health tracker.

Design and materials are outstanding. I have used various health trackers and I just wish I had found the Jawbone UP24 earlier.
