I spent about 8 hours using this today. Some notes.

  + It does feel heavy at first, but I got used to it pretty quickly. 

  + I plugged it in to charge and it seemed to be stuck at 80%. This may be because of the port I was using so I can't lay blame on Band. 

  + The charging mechanism is solid and feels great. 
  + I keep wanting to swipe the screen to turn it on (you need to press the "home" button).

  + I went for a 1.5 mi run. It took *4 minutes* to lock in GPS. This is in a fairly populated area, but the I was kind of in the woods. My iPhone has zero issues locking into GPS. 

  + It mirrors all my notifications from my iPhone which I love. 

  + After running, I went straight to Starbucks and tried to pay with the band but failed because the screen does not respond to sweaty fingers. This is partly my fault.

  + Haven't detected any UV yet. 

  + HR locking is quick.
