Reviews around look (4.20 of 5)

  • Since the Shine is magnetized the loose O-ring coupled with a strong magnet makes for a great combination.
  • I like the look of the product and I have friends that have it
  • I wanted an elegant looking activity tracker because I think that Jawbones and Fitbits look like gumball machine toys
  • The plastic band, although looks like is very flimsy, has held up well for 10 months of normal use.
  • I, like so many others, lost my Misfit Shine because of the cheap-o plastic band that comes with it

Reviews around sleep (4.17 of 5)

  • My Misfit tracks sleep better than my husband's Garmin at 1/6 the price
  • Both sleep and activity have tracked very well over the last month
  • Data is lost fairly frequently, and it will not automatically count your sleep if you fall asleep during the day.
  • There seem to be a few glitches in the software, such as occasional missed sleep data, and one day where it logged all my activity but only awarded me 21 points
  • off.• Along with tracking your daily activity, the Misfit also monitors your sleep

Reviews around feature (3.96 of 5)

  • Sleep tracker - the BEST feature, especially for an insomniac like me
  • Here are all the things I love about my Shine:- Swimming - accurately tracks time and effort and converts it to points.- Other Sports - easily switches to activities such as biking and tennis.- Sleep - my favorite feature - I don't know how it is so accurate on the amt of restful
  • Sure you wont have some of the more advanced features but in my eyes just the waterproof feature is worth it.
  • When it comes to it working, this product would get 5 stars... however, the accuracy, great app, lack of needing to be charged, and all the other features become useless once you find out that wearing it as a watch will end up causing you to lose the tracker
  • The "show my shine" feature has never worked with any of the shines I've had

Reviews around fact (3.77 of 5)

  • Personally, I love the fact that you don't have to charge the battery and just have to replace it after 6 months or so
  • The fact that the LED lights are not visible in sunlight makes this item unusable for me

Reviews around calory (2.49 of 5)

  • I find that I really do want to meet my activity goals, both for sleep as well as for physical activity
  • After walking 1.9 miles, it says I burned 1343 calories.
  • Beyond that, the Misfit not only recorded how many steps I took or how many calories I burned, but it also recorded how many hours of sleep I got
  • I was really hoping this would work out as I needed an activity tracker for the swimming pool.
  • Pretty accurate, when run I also wear a TomTom runner's GPS watch because displays pace (also a worthy device) and Shine's reading of distance, calories is reasonably similar
