You can continue to track your runs and workouts using the. However, NikeFuel has been removed from your profile and is no longer available. All running data that you have synced to your NikePlus Profile is still accessible through the Nike Run Club and Nike Training Club apps. These Fuelbands (along with the original Black) are available at Apple Store (online and physical stores) in US, UK and Canada for USD149.95, GBP129.95 and CAD149.95 Nike has removed that App, and has stopped supporting the Fuel Band. Unfortunately, the Nike+ Fuelband is still not available in Singapore at time of writing. While I’ve not seen actual photos of the newer Black (non-Ice) Fuelband, the lock has been said have a glossy black finish now. This reminds me of the sides of the Black/Slate iPhone 5. The newer ones feels more discreet as the lock has a matte look. The original Black and the new Black Ice, compared. Nice to see the grid of LEDs (and a secret message above it.) Either way, it’s quite attention seeking. Maybe it’s because it would be harder to read the display because everything is so white, or the frosted plastic transmits more light from the LED. The White Ice edition, just like the first Ice Fuelband, has a brighter display for some reason. It has a very shiny lock, like the chamfer edges of the White/Silver iPhone 5.
Except these slots (for support staff to reach the battery?) which are in an opaque white. Most of the band itself is clear for the White Ice variant. It has a white PCB, and the band exterior is frosted clear. Only time will tell if it holds up better than my original Fuelband (which tends to open on its own). The little plastic dock is gone, though.Īpart from the omission of the “dock”, the new Fuelband seems to have a stronger, redesigned lock. It is bundled with a USB cable, an extra 16mm link, and an adjustment tool. Just like before, the Fuelband comes pre-attached with a removable 8mm link. The new colours, called Black Ice and White Ice, seem to complement the new iPhone 5 pretty well. It will also sport an updated look in a response to the popularity of the ICE edition. The Fuelband will be made available at more channels in the US, UK and Canada, retailing at locations such as Apple’s Online and Retail Store. Two months ago, Nike unveiled some exciting news. It was seen worn by many celebrities, including Serena Williams, Tim Cook and even Kanye West (hmm.) It was a limited run, sadly, but is still available at cut-throat prices from resellers. This colour was very popular and often sold out. Nike released a new colour, called Ice (or Clear), in time for the Olympics season. While it’s not a sole motivator for keeping active for me (it’s just a nice reminder), the fancy LED display is certainly a conversation starter. Since then, I have worn this nifty black wristband for almost every day, and encouraged some close friends and family to do the same. I wrote about the Nike+ Fuelband in March 2012.
