Today, we've got it — and it supports the iPhone.</p> <p>The HTC Grip (http://www.androidcentral.com/htc-grip) is a GPS-capable fitness tracker that's in the same sort of category as the Microsoft Band (http://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft-band) and entries from Fitbit or Jawbone. (A watch, folks, will have to wait, apparently, though it's not like we didn't see this one coming (http://www.androidcentral.com/htc-teams-under-armour-will-release-new-series-products-ua-record).) It connects to phones running Android 4.3 and up, and iOS 7 and up, and syncs with Under Armour's UA Record application, which just gained millions of more users after UA purchased My Fitness Pal and Endomondo (http://www.androidcentral.com/under-armour-buy-endomondo-and-myfitnesspal-total-560-million).</p> <!--break--> <p>The Grip is about 0.89 inches wide on the wrist and done up in that sort of fitness-band tracker rubber you'd expect. It's got a 1.8-inch PMOLED display that presents text as a relatively low-resolution black-and-white message, with some basic symbols to help guide you through the touchscreen. It doesn't sport a heart-rate sensor but can connect to other Bluetooth-enabled fitness accessories.</p> <p>Grip will come to North America this spring in lime green or deep teal.</p> <ul><li>See our complete hands-on with the HTC Grip!
