Misfit Swarovski Shine shows New Possibilities of Fitness Jewelry at CES 2015

LAS VEGAS -- There have been plenty of recent attempts at meshing wearable tech and jewelry -- theIntel MICA band, Fitbit's Tory Burch accessories, and the Misfit Shine, which has its own pendants and bracelets, are a few that come to mind. A key limitation, however, has been battery life: these gadgets, sooner or later, need a charge or a new battery.

Misfit Swarovski Shine, a line of crystal-bejeweled fitness trackers announced at CES in Las Vegas, takes everything up another level. Thanks to a partnership with Swarovski, these trackers cross the line into true jewelry. Two versions will offer either a clear or violet crystal. It's the violet one you want, because that one's solar-powered -- it shouldn't ever need to be charged at all.

It looks good cooperation. Recently any wearable devices would have mistake to insert many functions beyond its practice. But this Misfit Swarovski Shine is simple, and it increases beauty of the crystal by twinkling LEDs. Besides it has a solution of battery charging and if it can't be working, it has worth enough to reveal beauty and also its price is affordable. Like this try, if the crystal can have an important role as a hardware platform, its series will be able to make a success.
