Activity-tracking wristbands are a dime a dozen these days, but each device takes a different approach to monitoring your fitness. Some pretend to be timepieces while also counting your steps, others are full-on smartwatches, and still more aim for style and subtlety over flashing LED step counts.

The Shine 2, now on sale on
Misfit’s website for $100, mimics the design of its predecessor, but that’s not a bad thing. The original Shine looked a minimalist though slightly strange bracelet when it launched in 2013, but that was appealing in an age of all-around hideous activity-trackers. Now companies are upping their game, so Misfit had to polish the
Shine’s rough spots—most notably, its syncing and accuracy.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2995541/fitness-hardware/misfits-100-shine-2-is-thinner-and-smarter-than-its-first-gen-activity-tracker.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
