Will you still have to hold Mickey Head to Mickey Head or is this new battery more powerful allowing you to just keep your puck in your pocket? (and that was weird typing that sentence)
My guess is yes you will still have to go Mickey to Mickey.Will you still have to hold Mickey Head to Mickey Head or is this new battery more powerful allowing you to just keep your puck in your pocket? (and that was weird typing that sentence)
The puck is held in by watch screws.It's kinda what I feared..larger (i.e. seems bulkier).
IMHO that's a significant size difference:

I also wonder how quickly those "pucks" will get lost. You have to easily enough get it out if you want to interchange it with the key chain or the band so it doesn't..at least right now..seem as rough and tumble as the other ones. Could you potentially lose the puck on a ride?

Ohhhh now that's interesting. Thanks for letting me knowThe puck is held in by watch screws.
Really? Then that wouldn't make it really easy to swap it out. So, if for example on vacation you want to swap out bands, you'd have to have a screwdriver with you or ask a cast member to do it. Is that correct to say?The puck is held in by watch screws.

Well my issue is I have small wrists..so not only is weight a concern but also having the sides be like a large watch.....which I don't buy because of my wrists. Any watches I've had in the past have been much smaller ones which usually require 2 or 3 links to be removed. I suppose we'll see though if they stick with this design or adjust it (like they did with the original magicband by making it thinner) by next September when I go. I do think it is interesting that they decided to make the original magic band thinner not too too long ago but then decided to do a 180 and go the opposite way of in a sense that the puck design sticks out more on the sides so I'm really wondering if the puck design is the same weight all around as the thinner magic bands.It does look a bit wider, which doesn't really bother me, but I know everyone's different. Also, it's hard to tell in the picture, but it looks like the band will be thinner. So it may be thick where the puck is, but taper off the further it gets. So the elongated width won't add any vertical bulk, but again, this is just basing it on the couple pictures. I could be totally off base.
I don't think you have to worry about that. I wear a Jawbone Up Move with the wrist band accessory.
I have worn this thing for years, through many physical activities and it has never once popped out. The rubber band around the puck will keep the puck from popping out forwards, and your wrist (and the rubber band around the back of the puck) will keep the puck from popping out backwards.
EDIT: @rteetz really? I feel like it's kind of unnecessary to screw it in. It should just stay in place with the rubber of the band keeping it still.
