We've been waiting for the Microsoft Band, the only fully featured smartwatch/wearable that works with Windows Phone, to hit the UK and it seems that this is the week. Microsoft's YouTube channel have put up a couple of UK videos unboxing the Band and then showing off how some of the Microsoft Health data it produces can be used. See the embedded clips below.

The Microsoft Band is available to buy from the likes of Amazon at £170 and available in Small, Medium and Large sizes, it seems. We have a review unit in UK retail packaging on its way, so hopefully my wrist will fit it!
