The flat-faced Microsoft Band wasn't hailed as the most stylish wearable ever, but leaked renders of what is expected to be the second generation device leaked via Microsoft Insider on Sunday showing a curved display.
The blog is claiming we can expect a new metallic finish, at least on part of the front display panel, but also some new functionality - for example, users will finally be able to measure elevation .
One other notable physical tweak that Microsoft appears to have made with the Band 2, known internally as "Envoy," is a new location for the battery - now under the display instead of the sides.
The original $199 band was announced in late October 2014, and positioned as a health and productivity focused wearable in the tradition of Fitbit.
