Fitness tracker devices are all the rage within my broad sphere of friends and acquaintances. From mid-twenties to 70+, I know people who love these devices to track their steps count (how many steps they walk in a day) as well as various iterations that monitor heart rate or even how they are sleeping. There are a range of devices out there and it does require some research on what to buy for yourself or give to someone else (Father’s Day, birthdays, graduation etc). One of the newest fitness tracker devices out there is from Jawbone a featuring two wristband models: UP2 and UP3

As Jawbone states it, “Fitness reinvented with style” Jawbone UP2 (starting at $99.99) and UP3 (starting at $179.99) is smart! When I read the reviews, I was astonished at the positive reviews and the raves about these devices.

UP 2 and 3 Mode Selection:
This is a very cool device. I highly recommend checking out BESTBuy stores and BESTBuy.com for these 2 models of the UP device. The UP2 is a less expensive model that has the basic version of the different elements UP tracks. The UP3 is more expensive but has so much more interactivity and connectivity with both device, app and also your network.
