During a special Windows 10 event today in New York City, Microsoft announced a new version of its fitness- and health-focused Microsoft Band device. The wearable device launches on Oct. 30 for $250.

As you can see in the video above, the new Band looks nicer than last year's model, and now comes with Cortana integration. It also sports GPS tracking, notifications, calorie and sleep tracking, and a new golf-specific feature that tracks your rounds and more.

The Microsoft event is ongoing; watch it here and check back later for more.

Also during the event today, Microsoft announced that Windows 10 has reached 110 million installs and that integration for Xbox One is coming this holiday. In addition, Microsoft is now accepting applications for HoloLens development kits, which will go for $3,000.
