Wearable Technology

 Smartwatches and fitness wearables offer many cool features and benefits including the ability to track our health, heart rate and activity which can help anyone get a grip on their progress. Sleep tracking, or the ability to measure the amount and quality of sleep is equally as important since it focuses on how our body recovers and repairs itself.

If there was any doubt that this would be the year that smartwatches and other wearable technology hits the mainstream, look no further than Best Buy, where you’ll find best-sellers like the Pebble smartwatch alongside the latest generation of Samsung’s wearable tech –the Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo. Soon some new entries will be joining these: the Cookoo and Cogito. Choice is good and these new models offer a new take on the traditional smartwatch form factor as well as a more affordable option for those who want to take the plunge into wearable technology without a large investment. I just spent a week with a Cookoo smartwatch and you can read my review here.
