I've been writing about and reviewing consumer technology since before the turn of the century. I'm also a photographer and cat herder, frequently at the same time.
The Vapor 2 will be available in 8 colors at launch.
Misfit's Vapor Wear OS smartwatch adds some new tricks to its repertoire, including NFC for payments, a built-in GPS and and updated heart-rate sensor, along with new sizes of 41mm and 46mm.
Misfit didn't specify availability, but it will cost $250 (£215, AU$375) when it ships.
The standalone GPS means there's no longer need to connect to a phone to track steps or calories. It retains the features of the previous model, including swimproofing and water resistance up to 164 ft/50m, 4GB of storage and a built-in music player.
