id="cnetReview" section="rvwBody" data-component="indepthReview"> I'm 518 Fuel points ahead of men aged 30-39 at this point in the day, and 678 points ahead of yesterday at this time. But, I still have at least 900 more Fuel points to go to reach my goal.
Welcome to the world of NikeFuel, and the Nike+ FuelBand SE, the latest version of the company's wearable wireless fitness band.
The world of wearable, smart fitness trackers is getting increasingly crowded, and there are a lot of options on the market: the Fitbit, the Jawbone Up, and lots of other assorted pedometers. The FuelBand was one of the first mainstream fitness gadgets, and it's perhaps the best-known, and the best marketed; Nike's presence as a company is far larger than any of the others.
View full gallery Sarah Tew/CNET What it does, though, is similar to what other trackers do: it counts your steps and measures your motion, and sends that data to an iPhone app, or to your computer. The difference with Nike's system is the use of universal points system called NikeFuel that serves as a measurement of activity.
What's new from last year? SE stands for "special edition," and the difference mostly amounts to adding Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity for more continuous, energy-efficient syncing, and updating the software to offer more ways to track data and motivate you with video-game-like achievement badges.
But what the FuelBand 카지노사이트 | 바카라사이트 | 더킹카지노 | 샌즈카지노 | 코인카지노 | 솔레어카지노 | 크레이지슬롯 still boils down to is this: it's a wristband that doubles as a cool watch, counts steps and your Fuel score, syncs with an app, can be worn in the shower, and 카지노사이트 | 바카라사이트 | 더킹카지노 | 샌즈카지노 | 코인카지노 | 솔레어카지노 | 크레이지슬롯 has some fun social features that link you with friends who use NikeFuel apps. As a deeper coaching tool or life assistant, t
SE still leaves a lot off the plate.

/CNET Design: Best-feeling band around
Many pieces of wrist-worn wearable tech have issues of one sort or another: maybe the clasps are too loose, or the snap-on band not tight enough, or the whole device isn't water-resistant. The FuelBand SE is the best-fe
've tried, and the most useful, too.
View full gallery Sarah Tew/CNET It's the same idea as the original FuelBand: it's really a giant LED-lit, water-resistant band with a clasp that doubles as a USB stick. The whole band's a USB stick, which is the ingenious part: plug the end into a PC to sync or charge, 카지노사이트 | 바카라사이트 | 더킹카지노 | 샌즈카지노 | 코인카지노 | 솔레어카지노 | 크레이지슬롯 or into a USB-jack-equipped wall outlet. An additional e
th USB dongle comes in the box, in case you need extra room.
The FuelBand snaps on your wrist, and on mine it felt cozy, secure, and utterly comfortable. Just make sure you have the right size: it comes in two different sizes, along with an extra piece of band that ca
e size a bit if needed, and a tool you can use to pop it in.
A single button operates everything on the FuelBand SE: clicking cycles through Time, Hours Won (see below for what that means), and Fuel "earned" for the day. You can add Calories (measuring estimated daily calorie burn), Steps (a pedometer), and hourly Move reminders by changing settings via
d iOS app or Nike+ Connect Windows/Mac software and syncing.
View full gallery Sarah Tew/CNET The FuelBand also has a clever progress bar below the readout, made of a spectrum of lights ranging from red to green. As your day continues, it's a clear and effective gauge (to go along with the o
number) of how close you are, relatively, to your Fuel goal.

rough battery-life indicator and Bluetooth on/off controls.
The big, bannerlike LED array feels like a mini billboard on your wrist, and glows futuristically up from the rubberized black band. The readout runs across the band, so you have to turn your wrist -- it's odd, but it works. The FuelBand's color schemes include electric orange, pink, and yellow underbellies (Total Crimson, Pink Foil and Volt), but from the top, everything's black except the Nike logo highlighted around the clasp.

Bluetooth 4.0: Automatic syncing...sometimes
All of the top-of-the-line wearable-tech products have begun adopting Smart Bluetooth, otherwise known as Bluetooth LE or Bluetooth 4.0. The new FuelBand SE has it, and it enables devices to connect and disconnect and sync automatically in the background, 카지노사이트 | 바카라사이트 | 더킹카지노 | 샌즈카지노 | 코인카지노 | 솔레어카지노 | 크레이지슬롯 with less strain on the battery. Over the course of a week of solid use and many
cs, I only needed one recharge. Charging via USB only took me a little over an hour.

I had to log out and on from the Nike+ app, and even reformat the FuelBand once. My colleague Brian Bennett didn't have any problem syncing it with the iPhone 5C. Me
me, the Jawbone Up24 never had a syncing problem over its Bluetooth 4.0 connection.
While wireless syncing seemed a bit buggy, the FuelBand always kept its tracking going, and plugging in and syncing with a PC via USB is always a fallback option, too. The FuelBand holds
on its own without needing a connection, but on
