One of the biggest problems with wearable devices is that it's difficult to balance form with function.

You'll often see fitness trackers, sleep monitors, and smartwatches compromise on one aspect or the other — many beautiful devices lack an array of useful features, and many feature-packed devices tend to look unattractive.

Enter the beautiful, accessible Misfit Ray.

Introduced last week at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the $99 Misfit Ray can monitor your sleep, track your steps, and measure how many calories you burn during specific activities like yoga. But this little device offers so much more, which helps it stand out among a sea of similar competitors.

Since all the important tech is housed in the Ray's aluminum body, you can easily switch out wristbands, necklaces, and any sort of custom accessory for wearing your Ray on the fly.

As far as the tech goes, the Misfit Ray can measure your steps, overall distance, and calories burned.

It can tag and measure certain specific activities, including walking, running, dancing, swimming, cycling, yoga, soccer, and tennis.

It also tracks your sleep, in terms of both quality and duration.

Misfit Ray also delivers notifications. A small LED on the side of the device will change colors based on your activity progress — it'll change from red to green as you get closer to your goal — and it can flash different colors and vibrate for incoming calls, texts, and alerts.

You can look at all the information collected from your Misfit Ray via Misfit's app, which works for iPhones, iPads, and Android devices running 4.3 Jelly Bean and up.
