The Basis Carbon Steel Edition is the latest version of the Basis fitness tracker,
and features several design changes from the original Basis fitness tracker, the
Basis B1. It sells for $199, whereas the price of the original version dropped to
$179. But is newer necessarily better? I tested the Carbon Steel to find out.
Design/Comfort: ★★★★☆
One of the main differences between the original Basis and the new edition is
visual: The new band definitely has a sleeker look. It has a silicone strap, which is
more flexible, and feels softer, than the rubber/plastic strap on the original
