“It’s the most advanced band we’ve seen in terms of technology on the wrist,” Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President of Devices and Services said, “and it’s really designed to do two things: have people live healthier, and be more productive, by having a band that can serve on the opposite side of your watch, worn 24 hours a day, and get some of the most accurate data that you can possibly get.”

Another nifty feature is that the Microsoft Band comes along with the latest service from Microsoft – Microsoft Health. The Microsoft Health platform includes a cloud service for consumers and the industry to store and combine health and fitness data to create powerful insights.
