Smart speakers will likely outsell wearable devices this holiday season. That’s the latest prediction from analysts at eMarketer, which forecasts a slowing growth rate for devices like fitness trackers and smartwatches here in the U.S. The wearable market is continuing to grow, to be clear, but it’s struggling to reach the mainstream. Next year, only 20 percent of the U.S. adult… Read More

These days, everyone and their mother has an Apple Watch. If you don’t have one now, spoiler alert: there’s a good chance you’ll get one as a gift. With your bedside outlet already overloaded with your smartphone, tablet, and laptop chargers, another device to charge could cause absolute mayhem.

Fitbit is, again, not having a good day after spending the year in mostly middling status as it looks to prove there’s a market for fitness trackers and its own smartwatch. The culprit today: a Wall Street firm slapped a “sell” rating on the company’s stock, which often results in a rejection of its potential and sparks a sharp drop-off in the company’s share value.

Apple GymKit is coming to a treadmill near you
It’s been half a decade since Apple transitioned to the lighting connector, and still I regularly see the long-retired iPod 30-pin cable flopping off treadmill dashboards at gyms all around the country. It’s impossible to say how any of this will look five years from now, but at the very least, Apple’s new GymKit offering is certainly more refined than most of what’s… Read More

T-Mobile is offering $50 off the Apple Watch Series 3 starting Dec. 8 and running for an unspecified amount of time. (We inquired with Alan Danzis, VP of media relations, about that end date but all he said was that it would be for a “limited time.”)

This new FDA-approved Apple Watch band measures the electricity in your heart

The Federal Drug Administration just cleared a new band for the Apple Watch that monitors the electrical rhythms in your heart.
After a two-year process to satisfy the FDA’s stringent requirements, AliveCor announced today that the Kardia Band is now available for purchase for $199. It’s a mobile electrocardiogram (EKG), which measures a heart’s electrical activity and has traditionally been used by doctors to identify abnormal cardiac rhythms.
“It’s a regulated measure of physiology by the FDA. Doctors can recognize over 100 conditions when they see an EKG,” AliveCor CEO Vic Gundotra told Mashable. Read more…

More interestingly, the numbers point to a larger overall trend of consumers… Read More
