Dylan Lewis: They unveiled the UA HealthBox, which is kind of like this full-suite solutions type thing, which retails at $400. They're billing it as the world's first connected fitness system made by athletes for athletes.

Sean O'Reilly: This feels like a good move for them. Have you seen all the shoes? They're clearly going after Nike with that.

Lewis: Yeah, with all the NBA deals they're signing, getting Steph Curry ... I mean, yeah. They're chomping at the bit there. So, within the Health Box is three main products: UA Band, which is $180 outside of the HealthBox packaging. It's basically a health tracker, it automatically tracks steps, distance, resting heart rate, and sleep, very similar to some of the base level Fitbit (FIT) offerings. There's the UA Scale, which is a Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled scale that measures weight and body fat percentage. And lastly, the UA Heart Rate--

O'Reilly: They can do that?

Lewis: Yeah. The UA Heart Rate, which will retail $80 as a standalone, which is a compact heart rate monitor that features an innovative micro snap technology designed to provide comfort during workouts.

O'Reilly: Do you think they're confident about the accuracy of their heart rate monitor?

Lewis: I hope so.

O'Reilly: Word of warning.

Lewis: So, if you do the math, it's $440 if you buy them all individually, $400 to buy the whole suite. The UA Band retailing at $180 is pretty much well within the price points of most of what people who are expecting to pay for a fitness tracker. It's on the higher end, but it's not crazy. And I think in terms of functionality, you're going to see a lot of the same stuff with the UA Band. One of the things, in terms of battery life, I think UA Band was like five days, I think Fitbit's charge was seven to 10, that's what it's billed as. The thing I was most blown away with the UA Band was the charge time for a full charge -- 15 minutes.

O'Reilly: Wow! Really?

Lewis: Yes. And granted, this is what they're saying.

O'Reilly: That's almost Tesla good. They can do half a charge in 20 minutes, for a car. That's amazing.

Lewis: For five days battery life? That's outrageous.

O'Reilly: Why don't we have this on our phones? Why?
