How the Microsoft Band will beat Apple's Watch

Apple is priming the masses for the Watch's maiden journey into the "waters of wearables". Microsoft by contrast is more subtly and methodically building a system to immerse itself in the developing currents that are directing the wearables market

From Windows Central:

Microsoft's ambitious CEO Satya Nadella has his head in the cloud and that is a good thing. He envisions a world where a user's experience exists in that ephemeral space "between" devices. To the typical user that space is an invisible "magical" place that is trusted to carry one's experience seamlessly across their connected devices that themselves act as a tangible portal to that immaterial realm.

To Microsoft, that space is the cloud that functions as an intelligent platform to store data from millions of users. The cloud can then process that data, interpret it and proactively communicates relevant and contextual information back to individual users in a meaningful way.

The Microsoft Band is endowed by the Redmond company with 10 sensors that collect external data that is processed in the cloud and delivered to users so that they can make consistently informed decisions about their health. The system is analogous to how our five senses collect visual, auditory, olfactory, tactile and gustatory (taste) input that is then communicated to our brains.

How the Microsoft Band will beat Apple's Watch

Well... i guess we all know its not gonna happen.

I mean, i really like MS band, although i'll never buy it until its water-resistant, but to think that it will beat Apple's iWatch... its just silly.

I admit to rely on windowscentral.com for news regarding Windows Phone, but i have to say, they have a few retards writing crappy posts, with nothing but the need to show off or to force their (stupid) ideas onto others.

I'm not saying there isn't any useful stuff there, there is, but there is also many crap.

The forums seem to work better though.

Once upon a time Watches said on the Back. WATER PROOF. Now they just say Water Resistant. Ha. I do not think I will be using either one. Good luck to those that like them.
