<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/lenovos-website-lists-iphone-compatible-smartband-sw-b100' title="Lenovo's website lists iPhone-compatible Smartband SW-B100"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_brw/public/article_images/2014/10/lenovo_logo_ifa2014.jpg?itok=SEMvdoDS' />[/url]</p> <p>Lenovo's (http://www.imore.com/tag/lenovo) foray into the world of wearable devices is set to commence with the Smartband SW-B100 (http://www.imore.com/tag/lenovo-smartband), which is now listed on the manufacturer's official website. The fitness tracker was seen making its way to the FCC earlier the month, which revealed a rectangular display.</p> <!--break--> <p>The product page for the Smartband SW-B100 shows that Lenovo is targeting a younger audience with its first fitness tracker, which will come with the following features:</p> <ul><li>Exercise Tracking: Steps/Distance/Calories/Heart rate, and daily/weekly/monthly data graph in APP</li> <li>Sleeping Tracking, and daily/weekly/monthly data graph in APP</li> <li>Smart Device Interaction: call/SMS alert reminder with number or name</li> <li>Alert Reminder: smart clock, appointment alerts/exercise reminders</li> <li>SNS sharing: sharing of track information to main SNS</li> </ul><p>In addition to tracking your vitals and showing notifications, the Smartband SW-B100 will be able to automatically log in to a connected PC without entering a password. Xiaomi's affordable Mi Band offers a similar feature, although that particular wearable device unlocks your device when it is in close proximity.</p> <p>Judging by the image of the device on Lenovo's page as well as earlier rumors, it looks like the Smartband SW-B100 will eschew Android Wear (http://www.androidcentral.com/android-wear) for a more basic operating system, similar to what Samsung has done with the RTOS-based Gear Fit. From what is listed on Lenovo's site, it looks like the SW-B100 will be available in blue and grey color variations, and will sync with iPhones (http://www.imore.com/iphone) and iPads (http://www.imore.com/ipad) running iOS 7.1 and above, as well as Android devices running Android 4.3 and later.</p> <p>What is your take on Lenovo's upcoming Smartband SW-B100? How much do you think the fitness tracker will cost?</p> <p>Source: Lenovo (http://shop.lenovo.com/ae/en/itemdetails/GY20G90866/460/B7716FFC600942CE86D9FF17D186451E)</p> <p>Thanks Kshitiz for the tip!</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-27928"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/3fd1a9f4/sc/28/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
