fuelbandRemember earlier in October when Nike announced the FuelBand SE? Well for those who don’t remember, the FuelBand SE is sort of like a successor to the original FuelBand. The design has been kept mostly the same, but has gotten slight upgrades in terms of water resistance, better accuracy, hourly tracking, Bluetooth 4.0 LE connectivity, and will arrive in a host of new colors, but apart from that it essentially the same device. For those who don’t own the original FuelBand, we reckon this might be a better purchase, but for those who do own the first FuelBand, it’s really up to you if you see these extra features as features worth paying money for.

In any case the FuelBand SE was pegged for a release on the 6th of November, but strangely enough it looks like it has gone on sale a day earlier than anticipated. According to reports, the FuelBand SE will be available for purchase via Apple’s online store, with user reports claiming that the FuelBand SE has made its way into Apple’s retail stores as well. Perhaps this is due to some kind of agreement with Apple where the FuelBand SE will be made available to Apple stores exclusively a day earlier than everyone else, but either way if you’re looking to get your hands on the device, hit up Apple’s online store for the details.
