Might as well go cyberpunk, I guess.

If you tell me where one can get real cyber implants that give you the superhuman abilities you mentioned, I'll get them rightaway.
But unfortunately, RFID / NFC implants and sensing magnets are the best you can get if you're interested in human augmentation. it's a bit pathetic, yes, but nobody is working on anything more sophisticated because no doctor will touch operating on healthy human beings for voluntary augmentation with a ten-foot pole.
I want my tiny piece of the future and I got it with my boring implants. Sorry to be so disappointing to you.
Yeah those would be cool and I would also like to know where to get them. Its too bad we live in a boring dystopia and not the cool one.
Not implants, but there are cybernetic exoskeletons.
As an amputee, I am no stranger to that kind of cybernetics. But it's not true cybernetics in the sense of an intimidate and permanent man-machine symbiosis: a prosthesis or an exoskeleton is something you don't want and you - thankfully - take off at night.
