HUAWEI Band 5 Review

Band 5 is the newest smart band of HUAWEI. HUAWEI has already launched it in UK. What is its performance? This article will make a brief introduction.

First, users need to use HUAWEI Health App. Pair HUAWEI Band 5 with smartphones. The App is suitable for Android and iOS systems. The pairing process is very simple. Complete the setup. The smartphone can push the notification to HONOR Band 5. The application displays information. Such as the number of steps, the user's heart rate, and how long the user sleeps.

The HUAWEI Health application allows users to track their physical condition on their smartphones. It will maintain continuous notification. The application needs a stable connection to the frequency band. Then it can display notifications. This has not significantly changed the battery life of our smartphones.

The application also uses the smartphone's own sensors to track the pace. We count 1000 walking steps. We want to test the accuracy of HUAWEI Band 5. It recorded 990 steps. This is a very good result. We think the tracking is accurate enough. HUAWEI Band 5 is different with HUAWEI Band 4. The walking counter does not record steps when we are driving.

The tester walked a distance accurate to 1 km. We want to check the distance tracking accuracy of HUAWEI Band 5. The distance recorded by HUAWEI Band 5 is 1.06 km. We Consider the fact that there is no local GPS function. This result is already very accurate.

Sleep tracking is also very reliable. HUAWEI Band 5 can display the user's sleep time. It can also have several modes. Deep sleep, light sleep, rapid eye movement sleep and awake time. The Health application uses Huawei's Trusleep algorithm for tracking. The application grades different sleep times. The application provides us with tips on how to improve sleep quality. HUAWEI Band 5 also has a vibration alarm function. It can wake up the user.

HUAWEI Band 5 can perform continuous heart rate tracking. It has two modes to choose from. The intelligent mode will automatically adjust the measurement frequency. It needs the user's activity level. The other is real-time mode. It can constantly track. HUAWEI Band 5 can detect users' heart rate within the same range as Apple's smart band and Samsung's Galaxy S9 Plus.

HUAWEI claims Band 5 will provide the same battery life as before. That is, 14 days. It takes 1 hour and 20 minutes to fully charge with a special charger.
