Misfit has announced Shine 2, the next generation of Shine Fitness and Sleep Monitor. The successor of the Shine, Shine 2 tracks activity and sleep more accurately with a 3-axis accelerometer and newly added 3-axis magnetometer.
Users can now easily see progress and tell time in a halo of rainbow-colored lights, or get motivated with Misfit Move. The Shine 2 comes with an improved touch responsiveness with capacitive sensing technology, faster syncing, and extended Bluetooth range. It delivers text and call notifications and a silent vibe alarm. Shine 2 track steps, calories, distance traveled and sleep quality, as well as activities such as swimming, basketball, tennis, soccer, yoga and dance. It is also compatible to the Misfit Link app for iOS and Android.
The Shine 2 is larger than its predecessor and is made of aluminium.
