Apple stops selling two fitness trackers released in 2013
Last night, Recode reported that Apple had removed Nike’s Fuelband and Jawbone’s Up24 fitness trackers from retail — both online and in stores. And since the timing coincides with the impending launch of Apple Watch, some are floating the idea that Apple might’ve made this move in an attempt to rid its retail shelves of other wearable competition. This morning I walked over to Apple’s store in Grand Central Terminal and can confirm that yes, both the Fuelband and Up24 are history. If they’re gone from one flagship store, you can bet the same products aren’t in any other Apple location; the company is meticulous about consistent presentation across its retail chain.
