I've bought the Honor Band 6 based on this video. I'm happy to corroborate with how accurate the heart rate is. I've used it along with my old Polar (F6 Watch + T3 chest strap) checking numerous times and the readings were almost always the same or within an insignificant 2 BPM margin of error. The few times that read 3 or 4 (rare) beats apart, it took no longer than 2 seconds for the reading to go back to the 2 BPM margin. So if you need a chest strap replacement, I fully recommend this product.

However, be advised that the distance counter while walking on a treadmill is completley useless (stationary wrist). At the end of the workout you can manually correct the distance walked, however, the band limit this adjustment to a ridiculously tiny window, not even close to make up for the huge difference. You need to input the entire workout data manually on the app but there's no option to include the average heart rate, rendering the whole thing mostly useless.

One more thing: if the device (phone/tablet) you're using to pair the band is on a language other than English or Chinese, the band will be stuck with the default chinese language. I had to switch my Android to English, pair it so that the band could automatically change it to English, and than unpair the band from the phone before returning the Android to my native language, otherwise the band would go back to chinese.

I love these tests! It's important that you do these so you can we can tell how accurate the data we are getting from these bands are.
I would love to see a ranking of which devices are the best for each metric of tracking and overall.
It'd also be cool to know what the prices of equipment are that you use for your reference data and what equipment you use personally too.

This video is on a completely different level from all other reviews for this device. Thanks for making it.

Been waiting for this! This is how smart watches/fitness trackers should've been reviewed

Thank you for the work you put into these videos, I know it must be really tedious and time consuming. You're one of the few youtubers who actually work their ass off to make their buck uploading such quality content. Keep churning out these videos and we will support you through this journey. Subscribed and watched all vids end to end. :)

I'm in awe with your videos. Hats off! Only thing I'd welcome is outdoor running reviews! My Huawei Band 4 and my Mi Band 6 have almost a km difference for every 5K run! Quite frustrating! Keep it up! ❤️

You're the right guy I found in here explaining stuff in details about its actual efficiency. If others wouldn't know better looking at the right place, they'd get consume in the hype proliferated by other reviewers.

Hi Rob, thanks for your vids and that section on the SPO2 measurements. Lots of devices are coming out with this feature and it's good to know how they actually perform. Cheers!

Honor Band 5 is one of the very few trackers with hi/low heart rate alerts. That and the low price make it worth a buy imo. Even with the wonky sleep tracking.
