Advantages: 0. There is an indicator of temperature "overboard". But it only works when taking data from a smartphone. 1. He counts the steps almost exactly. Without GPS, he does not want to count the rise of floors. But this is not critical for me. 2. There are enough types of workouts for a normal life. 3. The appearance is excellent, everything is readable, I did not notice anything superfluous. 4. It very well determines the level of oxygen in the blood (after updating to the next official firmware). 5. Monitors sleep phases. Moreover, precisely and in detail. 6. It is possible to see notifications. 7. Not afraid of water. Shower, rain is not a problem. 8. There is a function of constant monitoring of the pulse with a notification when the selected threshold is exceeded, which is convenient for strength training. Or just walking. 9. Battery - lives quietly for a week. With training and constant heart rate monitoring. How long will this be? Unknown)))).
Disadvantages: The first "friendship" with a smartphone. The application refused to be friends with the tablet. But they quickly became friends with the iPod. So, we can say that there are no shortcomings.
Comment: I recommend to purchase. At times better than apple watch. Unless, of course, you are 16 years old or you are not a fashionable "kid" or an Instagrammer ... If the review was useful to you, please mark it.

Advantages: 1) captures daytime sleep 2) shows the current weather 3) night mode function on the display - automatic dimming at night 4) it is possible to reset an incoming call 5) detailed sleep statistics in the huawei health app 6) an attachable strap end clip (3rd photo) 7) it is convenient to view received notifications without taking out the phone (but the amount of displayed text is limited) 8) convenient charging, unlike xiaomi bracelets 9) the ability to switch music tracks played on the smartphone (with and without headphones, as well as with a connected bluetooth speaker ), and control their volume (this all works only when the Huawei Health application is running in the background)
Disadvantages: 1) the display does not always light up when you turn the wrist (when lifting and turning, it usually lights up), which is sometimes very annoying, especially if the second hand is busy: you have to press the button with your nose (with mi band 2 the same) 2) if the hand is in an upright position (the angle of inclination of the hand relative to the horizontal plane is more than 45 degrees), then the display does not light up after turning the hand (with mi band 2 the same) 3) it is not possible to edit the time of falling asleep and waking up 4) if you are in a motionless and relaxed state, then the bracelet can refer it to sleep, which is why the total sleep time turns out to be inaccurate: • if after waking up to lie in bed for some time - this time is often referred to as sleep (with mi band 2 the same, but in mi fit you can at least manually adjust the duration of sleep) • the bracelet considered that I was napping while I was sitting in a chair in the hairdresser 5) if I fall asleep before 20:00, then this sleep interval until 20:00 is added to the sleep of the previous day 6) vibration for more labile and less pleasant compared to mi band 2 7) the stopwatch can run no longer than an hour 9) you cannot set the time frames for night mode (it turns on at about 10 pm) 10) after viewing the notifications on the phone, they do not remove themselves from the bracelet, you need to clean it them a bracelet manually 11) initially the choice of additional dials in the huawei health application was not available and there was no synchronization with the cloud storage, I had to tinker a little to make it appear 12) you cannot change the position of the settings in the bracelet menu (they always go as the third icon if scroll the menu up); you cannot remove the blood oxygen detection icon from the menu (it is tied to the pulse icon and always comes after it in the menu). 13) the strap sometimes falls out of the strap end retainer (perhaps this is inherent in all watches with straps of this type)
Comment: When the continuous heart rate monitoring function is off, I charge it once a week. I switched to it from mi band 2. For a long time I chose between mi band 4 and honor band 5. Both there and there are significant advantages for me, but honor eventually attracted a little more. I ordered on Aliexpress complete with a white strap, which turned out to be just awful. It's informal, flimsy, cheap and clumsy. Screenshot of all available watch faces: https://yadi.sk/d/LXMf32kRFvAU6w I will supplement the review as I use it. For all questions, write to VK.

Advantages: everything works, quite miniature in width, bright, good functionality, including the determination of oxygen in the blood after updating
Disadvantages: flawed screens are available for the Russian Federation, everything is decided, but frankly it saddens us that we were again cheated, unlike the entire "civilized" world, and again and again we have to dance with a tambourine to achieve the desired result ...
Comment: an excellent device for a good price, if the mind is friends with progress - the bracelet screens are updated (everything is on the Internet), I took a blue strap - a wonderful rich color

Advantages: All the options are fine, I'm not an athlete. I turned the brightness to a minimum and that's enough. At night, he limited himself from possible calls from 23 to 6-40, and at seven incl. alarm clock, and very correctly, without frightening, wakes up every 10 minutes, if you sleep soundly at all. The dial is visible in the light, plus. You sit for a long time - beeps so that you can walk around, you have to do it. Attention: Firmware 1.1.0.96 - provided track management on the phone, as well as SpO2 - measurement of blood oxygen levels (see photo below)
Disadvantages: Still, there is no sensor for measuring the level of oxygen in the blood, but I wanted so much, I have no strength. There is no dial with air temperature and date at the same time - I'm waiting for such a firmware, I hope. It seemed to me that in version 4 the dials are better (my wife has this) The firmware differs from the 4 model and all the difference
Comment: I’m not a runner or a jumper, I took a watch, because it’s hard to walk with metal ones - my hand became numb, old age crept up unnoticed. They are lightweight and adjustable with a strap. There are plenty of straps on aliexpress. I have the default black one, I immediately rearranged the parts of the strap, so it's more convenient. On permanent incl. heart rate battery eats strongly, the battery lasts for 10 days. I ride the tram-steps does not count, smart. The dream counts correctly, the mileage was checked against 2GIS, it seems like it falls into the topic.

Advantages: wears it comfortably, after a day you don't notice it. The pulse counts accurately and the amount of sleep is quite accurate, which is important. Steps, in my opinion, are overly optimistic. Well, I’m not sorry :) I didn’t like the application on my phone to the end - it was constantly hanging in the tray and was eating up energy. But this may be because I have an old android - version 6. I bought it at the Huawai brand store, so while the bracelet does not measure oxygen, they promise a little later. Cost in 2750 with courier delivery. In general, I am satisfied with the purchase.
Disadvantages: The meager selection of dials and some of the items from the "nostroyka" menu, I would prefer to see as separate items immediately on the bracelet.
Comment: I gave this thing to an elderly man who was sure he slept a little. Now I know for sure that in general he has enough sleep and that his pulse is also good during the day. Which helped a lot psychologically. So I recommend for a purchase. Order # 5020947045

Advantages: Apart from the basic functions that are in every fitness bracelet, I liked the app, the design, the phone search function and charging: you do not need to pull out the capsule to charge.
Disadvantages: It happens that sleep information is not shown in the application, although the bracelet has recorded everything
Comment: I wanted to take honor band 4, but it turned out to be more expensive, and it is not surprising, because it is important for the manufacturer to buy a new product, and honor band 5 is the same 4, only the icon design is different. If you already have band 4, then you shouldn't take the fifth one.

Advantages: I bought it for use in the pool, copes with its tasks by 1000%, finally you can just focus on the swimming process itself, and the bracelet calculates the time, number of pools, distance and a million more parameters by itself. Amazing.
Disadvantages: no

Advantages: 1. Steps counts not bad enough. 2. Many different types of training. 3. Appearance "simple and tasteful", nothing more. 4. Determines the level of oxygen in the blood. 5. Monitors the phases of sleep. 6. Displays smartphone notifications. 7. Not afraid of water. 8. There is a function of continuous monitoring of the heart rate with notification when the selected threshold is exceeded.
Disadvantages: 1. Some workouts can only be started from the app (for example, cycling). 2. Blood oxygen levels are not measured during exercise. To measure it, you need to exit the training mode (where is the logic?). 3. The menu sometimes slows down when scrolling. 4. The advertised set of dials is useless, as they painted for children.The most optimal dial was the standard one from Band 4.
Comment: I ordered a bracelet from China. It is difficult to call it version 5, rather an easy restyling of Band 4. Outwardly, it is impossible to distinguish at all which version of the bracelet. If you already have a Band 4 and you are thinking about buying a Band 5 - take your time and think again if you need to change the "awl for soap".

Advantages: "First, it's beautiful!" :) The bracelet looks minimalistic and does not strike the eye. I chose the standard black strap and it suits me completely. However, knowing that the strap is replaceable, I have already looked at a very beautiful dark gray version on the Internet. Secondly, it is really very comfortable: light and imperceptible on the hand. If I personally constantly want to make the strap of the watch more loose, then the rather tightly fastened rubber strap of the bracelet is almost invisible. Doesn't bother even when you fall asleep.
Comment: A recent trip to the pool pushed me to buy a bracelet. It's always interesting how long you swim, but the monotony of counting tracks is enraging. In the Honor Bend 5 bracelet, you can select “swimming in the pool” among the training modes, set the length of the track and voila - the program will start counting. It is very comfortable. By the way, whether there is this mode in the bracelets Honor-band-4 and Huawei-band-4 is not at all obvious from the description of the models. By the way, there was a slight inaccuracy in calculating the distance: among the 50-meter segments that were close in terms of indicators (number of strokes and pace), two were wedged in, which are very different from the others. For example, the last one, very short in duration and with several strokes, was clearly a swim to the stairs (and I unknowingly turned off the workout after leaving the pool), but the program counted it as another 50-meter distance and added it to the overall standings. A few more pleasant and useful functions: - bright color display and a decent number of interchangeable dials that can be loaded; - alarm clock (vibration); - measurement of pulse and oxygen in the blood, - remote start of the camera, - control of music playback (appears after software update); - a pedometer, which, however, sums up the steps from both the bracelet and the phone, and whether this can be changed is not clear; - sleep monitoring, which lying in bed in the morning with a smartphone in hand can easily be mistaken for the next stage of sleep, but still the function is very cool, showing different phases of sleep, the amount of awakening, etc. - notification about calls and messages: the call can be rejected, long messages can be scrolled, but about 10 lines fit. At the time of this writing, I have been using the bracelet for the second day. I'm happy with the purchase - I'm having fun)
