Might as well go cyberpunk, I guess.

Yeap, that's why I said it was boring cybernetics.
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.
