The TalkBand is a reasonably comfortable fit on the wrist.

Compared to some other Bluetooth headsets on the market, the B1 is on the large side.

The unit charges from a basic USB port by plugging the band itself in. The lack of a proprietary charging cable or dock is a nice touch.

The band itself is certainly well made and feels secure when strapped on.

The B1 has an OLED screen, but it's non-touch and very basic.

Compared to other OLED screens on fitness werables, the B1 can look a little 80s.
