I found a purchased one of these from Laptops Direct on eBay. They looked reputable with over 15,000 feedback so took the chance and they served me very well.
Arrived without packaging but brand new, I know sometimes these things come with phones etc. If you're wondering how this may come about.
I'm not too fussed about having the box, so overall I am very happy with the saving made.
They also have white if you prefer:

In case anyone else has the same issue with theirs. Mine arrived today, but the micro-USB cable supplied doesn't work. At first I thought it was the device, but it is now charging after using my own cable.

Do these wake you up with a vibration? Or is it only for Sony devices?
And where are the people recommending Mi bands getting them from for this price? I'm interested in a decent, but cheap, branded band.
This thing is absolutely pants. Don't waste your money!!

Purchased in white, not sure if the missus will use it much but for this price it's worth a go, might help to work out if a pebble 2 or a newer device would be worthwhile.

Another nifty feature on it is that it vibrates if you are more than 15 meters away from your phone.
You can also control music (play, pause, next song, previous song) from the band... or configure it to use camera remotely.
At this price, its a super bargain.

I had Xiaomi Mi band 2 and had to send it back. It's step count was woefully inaccurate. Twice as many steps counted as other bands. It counted every movement as a step. I may have been unlucky and got a duff one.

Xiaomi band is better in my opinion and same price.

Got one of these cheap off eBay three months ago. Great gadget for the price. Battery last five days. Tracks steps and time spent walking/running. Tries to estimate running distance from steps. This can be a bit hit or miss. Step tracking is interesting, but not sure how useful it is on this or any other device.
What is great is that you can set it to vibrate for notifications. You choose which apps. My phone has been left on silent since I got it.

EBay listing says it's compatible with iPhone but the same product on Amazon seems to suggest it's Android only.. Can anyone confirm?

The video on the page states 'you need Android 4.4 or above', no mention of iOS.

liverpoolla to lynne_mummy2james
5 Jul 16#18
Yes. And it also has 'smart wake up' feature.

No heart rate sensor on this.

Are you able to view google calendar events on smart bands? I have my routine saved in each day on google calendar. Would this also track weight training activity?

Certain features on the lifelog app are not compatible with the swr10 like the heart rate monitor, you will need the swr30 for that.

I'm yet to use mine, just waiting to get my butt to the gym, but I've heard good things! I always find its worthwhile using Amazon for reviews then buying on eBay.
