    With a matte black finish, colorful interior band, and curved display, the Grip looks like a hybrid of Nike’s FuelBand 2 and the Microsoft Band. It includes five sensors for tracking your workouts. One of those is GPS, which is always a big deal for runners. A “multi-sport mode” can track various activities from running to cycling. “Simply put, Grip will train you as if you have a team of professional experts coaching you the entire time,” said HTC CEO Peter Chou. “And it is very fun.”
