Microsoft’s first smart band has been available in the US for a while now, but now it is launching in the UK. The new device is more fitness and health orientated than other devices as it features a lot more sensors than the Apple Watch.

The band has a few basic features such as message notifications and health statistics. As of yet only one retailer has payment functions at Starbucks it allows you to pay for your coffee.

The device is available for £169.99 and can be purchased at the Microsoft Store and Amazon.
