Amazon Halo View

With theAmazon launch eventset to take place later this week, many are beginning to speculate about the products which will be on offer. Leaks have been remarkably quiet so far, though a fairly comprehensive suite of new devices are expected based on previous events.

We have heard some rumours about newAmazon Fire TVsticks. We’d also expect some kind of update to theAmazon Echoline, though details are too sparse to speculate on exactlyhowthey might change.

Plus, if history is anything to go on, we’ll likely see an oddity or two. Need I remind you of theRobot Astro, which was designed to follow you about the house?

While the Amazon Halo View acted more like aFitbit, with a wrist-mounted display, the regular Halo was a simple smartband – similar to theWhoop. And that’s a fantastic product category to occupy.

See, for me, the Whoop is pretty much the perfect health tracking device. I wear a lot of rings and watches, making it hard to accessorise asmartwatchor asmart ringwithout looking like… well, a bit of a wally.

But a band that just looks like a bracelet could work well. The Whoop is quite pricey, though. The Amazon Halo was a much more affordable way to get into that, without losing too much functionality.

Sadly, it never made it to the UK. Then, back in April, the decision was made todiscontinuethe product altogether. There wasn’t much of an explanation for that, either.

So I’m not holding my breath. While I’d love to see it make an emphatic comeback, I can’t see them doing so in the space of the same calendar year. But hey, Amazon, if you’re reading this… please do.
