Abstrakt: This February, the Basis Peak got a new ability to display smartwatch notifications in a new firmware update. Does that make it a great smartwatch too? Ehhh… not so much. I just spent the last couple weeks trying it out, and here are my findings.Generally...
Big design improvements, Comfortable band, Easy set-up
No heart rate band compatibility, Notifications are poor, Slightly expensive
Yeah, if you want an activity monitor, and you want it now. At $US200, it's coming in on the higher end, but it's simply more capable and more accurate than any of the other activity trackers I've used to date. It gives you more data and helps you come up...

Great looking new design, Much more thought out smartphone app, More features coming down the pipe
Comparatively short battery life, Buggy app updates, Heart rate monitor drops out randomly
Sorry Windows Phone 8.1 users, you'll need a Fitbit activity tracker if you're looking for support for your Lumia device (or those small few with an HTC One M8 for Windows). However all iPhones running back to the iPhone 4S are supported, as is the fifth ...

The Basis Peak is a fitness-focused waterproof smartwatch that runs for days on a single battery charge. It passively measures heart-rate and steps, with little need for intervention from the user
Its swipe-based interface is almost too smart for its own good. Many promised features won't be available until future firmware updates. The watch isn't very attractive or stylish, and its mobile app design is far behind competitors like Jawbone
Despite some smart features, the Basis Peak is a fitness watch that's impressively automatic but too limited and unfinished to feel like a truly great product....

Buggy software, Bluetooth connection issues, More utilitarian than fashionable, Poor Android device compatibility, Notifications are poorly implemented
Abstrakt: The Basis Peak, the latest activity tracker from the Intel-owned company, is aiming to be your fitness tracker of choice, packing in heart rate monitoring, a pedometer, sleep tracking and smart notifications from your phone, but can it stand out in an alr...
Suffice to say, it all goes together to make for a very curious wearable. And for true fitness fanatics, the Basis Peak is unlikely to hit the spot. The inability to export data to other apps or record GPS-tracked rides and runs – not to mention the compl...

Overall, we think that the Basis Peak is a great fitness and sleep tracker. The amount of data it processes provides you with a holistic overview of your fitness and sleeping habits. The accuracy of the tracker itself is great – we tried to fool it into t...

Super accurate, Decent notifications, Tonnes of sensors
Information overload, Hard to learn anything useful, Syncing nightmare,
We really wanted to love the Basis Peak, and as a general activity tracker and sports watch it's one of the most powerful and accurate out there. However, despite its power in the gym or on the road, when you return from your workouts, its usefulness plum...
