I've only had this band for a couple days now so I can't comment on the battery life or durability yet, however, I can say that it is much lighter/comfortable than the Up24. Also, it comes with a sleeker look and wireless charging which is a very welcomed change for me. You can easily tap and hold to change modes and the icons/lights have been upgraded. Accuracy so far seems to be spot on for both sleep and counting steps, which should be expected. So far, I'd highly recommend trying this out!
