Lenovo is the latest tech company to join the wearable technology race, introducing its first fitness band called the Smartband SW-B100.
The device had already leaked online earlier this month when it was spotted at the FCC, suggesting that it was gearing up for an imminent debut. The new Lenovo Smartband SW-B100 now seems to be official, although the company made no formal announcement, issued no press release, and gave no hints regarding the product launch.
Nevertheless, Lenovo's website now lists the fitness tracker in orange or blue color options, and details its features and functionality. Just like other fitness trackers out there, the Smartband SW-B100 enables users to track their daily exercise, heart rate, and sleep patterns. The gadget also allows users to customize it so it would provide certain notifications.
As expected, it offers the usual set of features found on most fitness gadgets out there, keeping track of users' steps, calories burned, distance, and so on. It connects to a smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth, requiring a dedicated app, and will show call information and text message notifications on its display. Moreover, the gadget can also serve as a watch, complete with a smart clock function.
"The Lenovo Smartband is for young people who take care of their personal health and are interested in new tech trend products," reads the product overview on Lenovo's website. "It allows you to track daily exercise, sleep and heart rate, customize notifications to improve both work and life efficiency and automatically log in on a PC without entering a password."
The product page doesn't give any specific details regarding the actual hardware specifications of the Lenovo Smartband SW-B100, but it does note that it requires Windows 8 and later on PC and Android 4.3 or newer, or iOS 7.1 or newer on the paired smartphone or tablet.
No pricing or availability details are available at this point, but Lenovo is expected to make a formal announcement soon enough. Considering that it already has a product page, the Lenovo Smartband SW-B100 is clearly ready to hit the market in the near future, and we'll keep you up to date as soon as more information becomes available.
