Like the Surge, the new model runs Fitbit's proprietary software designed to keep users fit, while keeping up with their (in)activity, sleep and heart rate.

These products will include activity trackers and smart watches with Fossil and Misfit brands, and all 100 styles will be available by Holiday 2016.

For the time being, Fossil won't kill the Misfit brand as it has unveiled its two new fancy-looking wearable devices at CES in Las Vegas.

The update to the fēnix 3 multisport watches includes Garmin Elevate wrist-based heart rate technology, additional activity profiles and new watch bands.

The devices were made in partnerships with HTC and HARMAN; one of them, UA HealthBox includes a wrist-worn device, a smart scale and a heart rate monitor.

VivaLnk's Vital Scout uses multiple sensors including electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement to continuously monitor heart rate and other body functions.

Frequent swimmers will get to benefit from in-depth analysis of swimming with support for different styles, with quantified movements and calories burned.

Called WELT, it looks like a normal belt, with added electronics to provide users with a more discreet way of using sensors to monitor their health.

The product is designed to allow accelerated development of wearable products for consumers monitoring their health and fitness on a daily basis.

The upcoming model resembles its predecessor with few differences such as a larger prism display and a front light that turns on when the camera is in use.
