Misfit is pushing down the prices of its wearable fitness trackers without sacrificing any smarts.</p><p>
The Misfit Flash, a basic tracker with step counting and sleep tracking, now costs $30, down from $50 previously, while the aluminum-clad Misfit Shine now costs $70 instead of $100. The company also announced a $20 tracker called the Misfit Flash Link. It includes the same step and sleep tracking as its more expensive counterparts, but lacks a wristband and LED lights.</p><p>
Misfit is actually billing the Flash Link is more of a “smart button” than a fitness tracker, as its built-in button can activate a smartphone’s camera shutter, scroll through presentations, and control playback in music apps such as Pandora and Spotify.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2948964/fitness-hardware/misfit-drops-prices-on-flash-and-shine-fitness-bands-unveils-the-20-link-tracker.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
