GEORGIA: We have got some deplorable news if you were expecting to find the Jawbone UP3 fitness tracker under your Christmas tree. According to an incipient story from Wearable, the contrivance won’t be launching until early 2015.
Jawbone will be missing out on the bump in revenues from holiday sales of its incipient flagship product entirely, it has been reported. The Up3, launched at the commencement of November and pristinely set to ship afore the terminus of the year, will instead be delayed to early next year, thanks to delays caused by a number of manufacturing issues.
While Jawbone wasn’t too descriptive about what that fine-tuning process would be, it integrated that it should only cause “a short delay.” The company has recalled the UP band in the past for quality-cognate issues.
With its incipient flagship contrivance, the UP3, Jawbone introduces an incipient set of sensors and software features that could conclusively provide reliable slumber and activity tracking data, prospering where so many others have fallen short.
Jawbone’s tracker will withal face some pretty stiff competition with the Apple Watch slated to hit the market around the same time. Albeit it will commence at $349, Apple’s wearable will provide many of the same features.
