It would appear we are stuck with the rising trend of wearable technology, whether that’s for better or worse is not for me to say. Amazon clearly thinks it’s for the better though as they have a new store focused on wearable tech.
Amazon has described its new section as “a one-stop shop where customers can easily discover the latest in wearable technology and research wearable devices including activity trackers, smart watches, wearable cameras and more”. So if you’re looking to pick up a new watch or fitness tracker, this is the place to go for products from Samsung, Jawbone, GoPro, Basis, and Misfit, with plans to add products from Narrative and Bionym.
The store also contains product videos, guides, suggestions, reviews and information on compatibility so you can be sure to research every detail before committing to a purchase. The store also features an Editor’s Corner that provides access to wearable technology news and the store lets you shop by category and compare products just like any other part of Amazons’ store.

John Nemeth, director of wireless and mobile electronics at Amazon made this statement; “We’re thrilled to bring our customers a store with the largest selection and great prices that helps eliminate the guesswork when deciding which wearable devices best fit their needs—whether that is tracking activity, staying connected through smart watches or capturing their next adventure with wearable cameras,”
“Customers will find the same shopping tools they’ve come to know and love from Amazon, including fast and free shipping, Free Two-Day shipping with Amazon Prime, editorial reviews, personalized product recommendations, customer reviews and best sellers,” Amazon added.
To celebrate the store’s launch Amazon is offering an exclusive pre-order deal on the $80 Misfit Bloom necklace for use with the Misfit Shine fitness tracker. You can learn more about Misfit and other wearable technology on Amazon by visiting Amazon.com.
