I bought this as a gift for my once-beautiful wife.Since our marriage she has piled on the pounds and seems to get fatter and fatter by the day.A while back I noticed that she actually has not one, but THREE chins, which is far too many, in my opinion.I was drowning my sorrows one night by drinking whisky. I didn't want to go to bed because she was there, like a beached whale, snoring and farting like a burst tractor tyre. I had another whisky and then started to look on Amazon for something to help my situation.In my drunken stupor I saw a "Fatness Tracker", and bought it there and then on impulse. Of course it was a "Fitness Tracker", but I had read it wrong thanks to finishing a bottle of Royal Stag on an empty stomach... because she had eaten my dinner!When the "Fatness Tracker" arrived I was quite disappointed, but then I realised that I could put it to good use after all.The strap is quite long, and it fits tightly around her fat wrist, which is the size of a normal person's leg.I set up all the functions and now I can see that she walks about 300 steps a day - mostly from the chair to the fridge.Unfortunately, there is no "Exercise Setting" for eating cake, samosas, or biriyani, or she'd be the world champion.It does measure HER sleep - which is about 10 hours a night - but it doesn't measure mine which is constantly interrupted by her incessant snoring. Sometimes it sounds like a machine gun being fired the the bedroom, it's so bad!It wasn't what I had hoped for, but it was a good price, so I can't complain.
Using the band since 9 days and this is my review:Pros-1)Looks beautiful, looks and feels much better than the mi band 2 and the Fastrack reflex 2.2) Touchscreen OLED display only at 2k.3) Features like Find my device, Step tracker, Silent, Notifications and a lot more.4) Battery life (when not connected via Bluetooth)Cons-1) Heart rate sensor- Isn't accurate at all. Once shows 75 bpm and if tested again after 2 or 3 seconds shows 95 bpm. Senses heart rate for my table also, which obviously doesn't have a heart.2) Battery life- When connected and with features turned on like lift to wake, automatic heart rate detection, App notifications lasts only 5 -7 days.3)Screen- Scratches very easily and it is a fingerprint magnet. And its really hard to see the screen in direct sunlight.4) Charging- Taking the capsule or main body from the wrist band is a big task. Feels like the capsule is going to break everytime you try to take it out of the wrist band.
Heard way too much about mi band 3 but they are kind of fooling people.1. Battery backup not great as claimed2. Counts steps when I type on my laptop3. Sometimes heartrate sensor just shows cross, even with band held properly to wrist4. The worst noticed today, removed band yesterday at about 8.50 and wore back at 11.45. Today morning when checked my sleep then was amazed to see that I slept at 9pm and had deep sleep at 9.30 to 10.20. I slept at 12.The worst part is that its not returnable.

I got this phone on Friday evening.Pros:Great battery lifeAmazing performancePremium designImpressive rear and front cameraIn display fingerprint scanner is really fastCons:No headphone jack but you'll get a converterNo notification LEDNo microSD card slotI will give points on my personal experience of 2 days full usage as below:Weight: 9/10OS: 10/10Screen size: 10/10CPU: 10/10Performance: 10/10Storage: 10/10 (you'll get approx 113 gb for use)Battery: 8/10Rear camera: 10/10Front camera: 10/10In display fingerprint scanner: 9/10Face unlock: 10/10I hope this will help full.
Camera quality is not upto the mark. I visited one plus store and the store representative checked my phone and compared the camera quality with his demo phone. He noticed a significant difference between the two.I request Amazon to replace my phone with a new one as it is evident that this phone has some problems.
1. The Battery lasts max of 6 hours.2. Major application not working in the upper side of the screen.3. Camera quality is very poor.4. Audio output through earphone is very poor, same earphone works with other phone is excellent.5. While in a call unable to drop down the notification window.6. Video quality is very poor compared to other less price phones.I have applied for replacement, not going to take any replacement for such a worst product.

Direct hit on Pros and ConsPros:-Built quality is goodDisplay performance excellentAverage speedDecent battery life (been 3days 60%left)Good on handsCons:-Sometime It won't wake up when turn hand to see time*Constantly* disconnecting from mobile.(Though I use Honor mobile)Just 3 facesMessage notification is below average.Verdict:- Good on hands with perfect looks but lacks excellence
NOTE:@ I am already using this Band since Last 1 month that I purchased from China, so this review is Based on over 1 Month of heavy usage. Being satisfied with its performance, I decided to buy one more from amazon.@ Some features like Camera Shutters, Outdoor cycling works only with Honor smartphones.@ It has Clip on type straps and they are replaceable.@ Has average battery backup of 12 days ( check the review for Detailed Battery backup )This is very long review divided into 3 parts namely, Quick Overview, Full Detailed review and Comparison of it with MI Band 3. So if you are really looking to invest 2600 rupees, then I highly advice to read it completely, to ease your decision.●● If you want to get quick overview of the device, then read below else scroll down for Detailed Review ●●# The Screen is Full Touch Coloured AMOLED with 2.5D slightly curved at the edges.* Brightness is Adjustable.* Its prone to shatter if falls on face. ( Mine already had very small crack on the top )# Has average Battery backup of 12 days on normal usage and upto 5 days on Heavy use.# Its very Light weight and compact.# The Strap is extremely comfortable and also replaceable.* Its Not easy to remove it, which is good as safety, but pain when you want to replace.# Has Full Whatsapp, Instagram, Message, Call, etc Notification alerts.# Updates are Frequent ( Got update right out of the box )# Connects to both android and iOS, without any problem.# Has 3 pre built watch faces and hope to receive more as it has AMOLED display.# Watch interface is Clean and easy to use.# Has ACCURATE built-in Continuous Heart Rate monitoring, insanely Accurate Sleep Tracker and above average Pedometer.# It is swimming safe as well ( I tried it personally )# Cost is slightly high compared to features.# Charging dock is clip on type painful plastic.Full Detailed Review :--● DESIGN : -----------# It is Slim compared to MI Band 3 and 0.95" 2.5D display surrounded by black bezels perfectly blends in.# It is extremely Light as well ( just 24 g with straps on ).# It has Circular Touch sensitive Home button, similar to MI Band & is very Handy.# It has 2 pin contact charging dock, so the Back of the watch is completely flat and Smooth adding to comfort.# Finally Quality of the strap is above average and feels comfortable.* They are clip on type and it takes bit of efforts to remove them.● DISPLAY : ------------# It sports 0.95" AMOLED Colour display which gives crystal clear output ( Best in any fitness band under 3K).# The display is Rectangular with Vibrant colours and Bright Light (Adjustable upto 3 Levels).# Its very responsive and has good readability even in direct sunlight as well.● FEATURES : ---------------It has 6 Main modes namely Daily activity tracker, Heart Rate sensor, Sleep tracker, Workout, Messages and More (settings)# In Activity tracker, complete pedometer and calories details of the day are mentioned.* Its 90% accurate according to my usage.# In Heart rate sensor, you can quickly check the heart rate and it displays it in continuous manner for few seconds before it stops.* Its the best heart rate tracker I have used in any Fitness band and its almost 95% accurate.* You can even set heart rate tracking on Continuous mode from the app.# In Sleep tracker, you can just view the sleep time of previous night.* To check the detailed data you need to use the app.* It also tracks the day-time sleep data.* Its the Most accurate sleep tracker I have used in any fitness band or smartwatch.* Trusleep mode is what makes it such accurate, but it consumes lot of battery and eats up DOUBLE the battery.# In Workout mode, there are many in-built modes like walking, running, swimming, free exercise, etc.* In this mode you can set alerts and targets separately for each session.* There's continuous heart rate tracking in any workout mode.# In Message option, you can check all your smartphone notifications when connected to it.* It supports phone message, whatsapp messages, etc. And you can read the complete message.* It also supports call notifications, which has call Rejection option as well.* You also get direct notification and sedentary alerts on band without needing to check the message option.# In MORE, there are various micro settings and more features like Timer, stop watch, Watch faces, Reset, Power off, etc.* There are 3 built in watch faces, with one of them being LIVE watch face.* Its very thoughtful to put extra settings or feature in the more option, so as to keep the interface clean.### Best part about the interface is, when the screen goes blank when you are in certain option/mode, it brings you to exact same position where you were when you immediately wake it up by tilting the wrist or pressing the home button.● BATTERY PERFORMANCE : --------------------------------------# It charges quite quickly from 0 to 100, within an hour.# With band not connected to bluetooth, not in Trusleep or continuous HR mode lasts upto 12 Days.# With Bluetooth connected and Continuous HR mode, it lasts upto 6-8 Days.# If Fitness app is used for about a hour or more with Trusleep ON, then it lasts upto 5 Days max.* I prefer to keep it bluetooth mode all the time and continuous HR mode, but Don't turn the Trusleep ON,by which I easily get upto 6-7 days of backup with 1 hour of workout mode used 6 days a week.● CONS : -------# Biggest issue is the Display. Since its Glass, its prone to damage easily, if screen protector is Not used.* Mine have cracked up at the top slightly.# Some features like Remote camera shutter, Outdoor Cycling works only in Honor phones.# In Notification option, only the Latest message from a single sender is visible, while rest of the message from the same sender CAN NOT be viewed. Also there's noticeable Lag in notification option.# There serious Connectivity issue. Bluetooth only works when Huawei Health app is ON.# Finding a replacement strap which is affordable is pain.# Can't view Detailed Sleep tracking on the band itself. You will need the companion app for that.# To Turn the band ON every time, you need to connect charging dock to it.● COMPARISON with MI BAND 3 : ------------------------------------1. Honor band is much more attractive than MI band, when it comes to looks.2. Display of Honor band is AMOLED colored compared to MI band's OLED black & white.* Also honor band has 0.95" display whereas mi band has 0.78" display.* But, mi band's display is very durable compared to honor band's damage prone glass.3. Touch response is Better on Honor band.4. Pedometer is more accurate in Honor band.5. Heart rate sensor is sometimes similarly matched, but I think Honor band has slightly more accurate HR sensor.6. Sleep tracker of Honor band is undoubtedly much more accurate.7. Replacement straps are easy to access on MI band and finding spares is also easy compared to honor band.8. Battery backup is indeed better on MI band, thanks or no thanks to its grayscale display.9. Features are even matched on both the bands.10. Finally MI band is 600 rupees cheaper than Honor band.VERDICT :------------After a Month usage and trying almost all the fitness band under 3K price, I can firmly conclude that its the Best fitness band under this Segment. It has accurate pedometer, HR tracker, Sleep tracker and top of it Colored AMOLED display like nothing else in the segment. Coupled with week long battery on heavy use, its just irresistible deal.So if you have budget upto 3000, then certainly go for this band and yes, buy a Screen protector immediately if you happen to buy this band. If your budget is upto 2000, then better go for MI band 3.Hope this helps you make sound decision.
#UPDATED REGULARLY (based on usage) Latest: Charge time 5w vs 10w, Final battery backup in 3rd scenario & other minor updates.***************Got the device in hand & it feels awesome. Sturdy build, premium sleek looks, colour screen with glass front & what not. Overall a great band in hand. Got it after lots of shift in b/w Honor Band 4 & MI Band 3. Find comparison b/w both towards end of review.I have tried to cover just everything honor band, to help you decide wisely on its purchase. Inbox, Pros, Cons, Issues, Setup, App, Band, Interface, Gestures, MI band 4 vs Honor Band 4, Battery backup, Notifications etc etc.ENJOY READING!***************INSIDE BOX:***************1. Smart band2. Charging dock (with micro usb port for cable & pogo pins for band )3. Micro USB cable (white cable, a bit odd, coz device & charging dock is black)4. Quick Start Guide5. Warranty booklet*****************ABOUT DEVICE:*****************1. Screen 10/10 (high density amoled with awesome sunlight legibility, images attached)2. Battery 9/10 (100mah, backup details below)3. Performance 9/104. Build 9/105. Sensors 9/106. BT Range 9/10 (approx 40-50 ft)Overall: 9.2 which translates to 4.5 star, so a 5 star device*****************PROS*****************1. Budget device with solid features inside.2. Colour high density AMOLED touch screen with 2.5D curved edges glass top. (gestures detail below) - Don't feel the need to spend extra on screen guard as device is to be wore on hand similar to watches, unlike phone which is hand held & is prone to accidental fall. - On the other side, you would touch its glass frequently to use it, unlike regular watches. - In my view, guards spoil the looks & slightly interfere with touch response. Enjoy your device till you have it. These are not meant to last forever. I avoid them & use devices carefully.3. Extra touch button below screen to work as back, home button or to perform specific actions (gestures detail below)4. Device is responsive with fast touch & good performance overall.5. Light weight (22.7g only), compact & comfortable to wear. At times you even forget wearing it.6. Very good visibility in direct sunlight (images attached)7. Decent battery life (details below).8. Water resistant up to 50mtr. Did initial water test by putting it in water tray n no issues were there. (images attached)9. Easy initial setup & configuration. (details below & images attached)10. Pretty decent feature set for activity tracker (details below).11. 24 hours sleep tracking. 00:00 to 23:59. Some bands offer tracking only during night.12. Fairly accurate heart rate sensor with continuous monitoring feature & alert at set rate. -Took around 9.5 secs to display 1st reading -Took around 50-60 secs to display final avg reading -While in continuous tracking mode, it displays reading immediately13. Easy to understand user interface. Not cluttered. (images attached)14. Software update frequency is too good. I got two updates within an hour. 😀 One as soon as it was paired. Next one in an hour. (details below)15. Auto sync of data to Health app, whenever connected to phone.16. Compatible with both Android & iOS devices.17. Idle alert to let you take a break & have a walk.18. Strap with easy to remove clip lock is highly secure. (image attached) -We don't need to remove it to charge band. -Only required if strap need to be swapped. -To remove, use nails via minor gap on one side of clip, to pull it out19. Replaceable straps is an add on. Choose your taste. But availability is an issue.*******CONS*******1. No power on button. Power off option is provided in settings, but to power on you need to connect it to charging dock. Not a big deal. Its not meant to be switched off.2. Camera remote shutter exclusive to Honor mobiles3. Outdoor cycling exclusive to Honor mobiles4. Proprietary charging dock with pogo pins. Micro USB would have been better as its handy. But may be water resistance ate it up. Rubber flap is an option for that, but that loosens with time.5. Going through message or notification or conversations is an issue. Its interface is very slow & it renders it almost useless (details below)6. Only 3 watch faces. Hope to get more via updates.7. Very small usb cable. Only 7.5 inches long.8. No dedicated website or store for getting genuine replacements or accessories. Others elsewhere are costly & have quality issues.9. No inbuilt GPS support10. No Music control11. Step counter at times skip steps & realtime update of steps in band is slow. Both things can be fixed via update. For skipping thing, its like, if idle for a while, accelerometer needs a jerk to trigger proper counting of steps & recognise walking pattern.**************************************FEATURES AS ACTIVITY TRACKER**************************************1. Regular & detailed 24 hour sleep tracking including REM, deep sleep, light sleep etc. -This screen has no sub screen & only displays current nights sleep duration -Need to use app to view rest of sleep data -Activating tru sleep also includes REM sleep data. Rest if off, only light & deep sleep is recorded.2. Continuous heart rate monitor with high rate alert or heart rate on demand3. Multiple workout types: Walking, running (indoor & outdoor), cycling (indoor & outdoor), swimming (with swim stroke recognition via 6 axis sensor), free training. -all with targets & reminders in form of time, calories, distance or none & relevant data like calories, distance, heartrate, time duration etc while activated. -you can pause activity using touch button or end it -water resistant up to 50mtr, so can easily be wore while swimming4. Step counter with daily target covered (in %). Opening it, we have steps taken, calories burned, distance covered, time & no of times we got up from chair (daily target is 12). -Its fairly accurate 2000 steps were counted as 2020. -Sometimes it counts steps during night, which is wrong. Once i had 49 steps, next night 0. -It hangs sometimes & watch interface is not updated instantly with step counts. Auto updated after few mins.5. Idle alert (setting accessible via app). Displays cool animation with figure standing up & doing some body warmup.6. Detailed analysis, graphs & data etc on mobile app************************************************************************OTHER FEATURES (accessible via "More" in band or health app)************************************************************************1.

Low battery mode at 10% & 0% to save battery (Details below)****************************************************INITIAL SETUP (screenshot of steps attached)****************************************************1. Connect device to charging dock to switch it on2. It asks to pair device after Honor logo3. Download Huawei health app from store & click on + sign to display device list4. Click on Smart band. It may need to connect to servers to download latest device list. Allow it.5. Select band & click on pair in next screen6. Accept pairing request on Band. Tick Mark.7. Paired message is displayed on app. If available, it will ask to update firmware.8. Just continue & configure notifications, band preferences, etc9. Enjoy you device. Its ready to use.************************GENERAL GESTURES************************TOUCH BUTTON- Touch to go to home screen- Touch to wake band- Touch or touch & hold to perform on screen actions like reject call, silent or dismiss alarm, pause or end activity etcSCREEN- Swipe top to bottom to scroll downwards- Swipe bottom to top to scroll upwards- Swipe left to right on any sub screen to go back- Swipe mid way left to right in notification screen to scroll through bunched msg/notification (more below)- Touch & hold on home screen for watch face changeBAND- Raise wrist to wake screen- Rotate wrist to switch screen (clockwise/anti-clockwise)*********************************************NOTIFICATIONS & MESSAGE THREADS*********************************************a) Band is able to displays individual & bunched notificationsb) But interface gets very slow when notification count increases. Delay of up to 2 sec while opening any notification/msg.c) In short notif/msg viewing is messed up here. Can be fixed in future updates. Till then, its may be a goodbye to this feature.ALSO There is a way to VIEW ALL MESSAGES IN A THREAD, say 4 whatsapp message by same person-Some users reported it being not possible. Its possible but is slow & messed up. Sometimes works & sometimes not.-Swipe from midway screen to right to scroll through all msg in converstion one by one (can be done only once)-Say you get 3 msg from xyz person. In message option in band. We have 4 entry. xyz(4 messages), xyz (3 messages), xyz (2 messages), xyz (1 message)-Just open 1st one & scroll through all as explained above.TIP: Be sure to clear off message screen after checking it, as device has limited capacity & gets slower when count increases.Also in social apps like whatsapp, you need to mark all read, else, unlike sms, with every new msg, all unread msgs will be pushed every time new msg arrives.********************************************HEALTH APP & SYNC TO GOOGLE FIT********************************************#Health app by Huawei by quite detailed & developers have put in a lot of hardwork in it.a) In main screen it shows steps & calories with options to get into details of sleep, heart rate, weight record etcb) Top right corner to access band specific settings & regular steps, calorie, distance data with options to enable/disable True sleep, Idle Reminder, Heart Rate Monitoring, Alarm, DND, Notifications, Weather reports, BT disconnection reminder, Function Customization, Raise wrist to wake screen, Rotate to Switch, Firmware specific settingsc) One usefull feature is to be able to customize sequence of whats displayed in band on scrolling via Function Customisation.d) Activity reminder or idle reminder every 1 hour is another useful featuree) Next ones come, raise to wake screen & rotate to switch screen. Here some strong wrist movement is required in both. It was made that way to prevent accidental & frequent wakeups.f) Sleep data provides detailed daily/weekly/monthly/yearly insights into your sleep patter over day & night, with further bifurcation into deep, REM, light, sleep etc.g) Continuous heart rate monitor records data every 2 sec & you can check it by moving pointer over timeline. Nice way to keep track of your heart over day & night. Also you can set heart rate warning limit via setting icon in on top right & define other exercise related parameters.#Google Fit: I had no issues syncing with this app, as was reported by some users. Only 4 steps. Me tab -> Data sharing -> Google fit -> Connect-It records everything from Huawei health app & displays it as per its interface without any issue.****************BATTERY LIFE****************There are various parameters affecting battery viz BT, Heart rate monitor, Tru sleep, Screen on time etc. Each having its own impact wrt on/off. So backup can vary by large means depending on usage pattern.But i will try to shorten it based on some criteria as detailed below.#CHARGING TIME (0 to 100%)(Battery Capacity: 100 mah, After 0% battery drained till auto off before charging)5W / 10 W charger: 1 hour 45 min (same time, thats weird, checked 2 times)#COMPANY CLAIMS (Backup)I) Scientific/Tru sleep off: 14 daysII) Scientific/Tru sleep on: 6 days#REAL WORLD USAGE (backup)i) Tru Sleep & Heart rate monitor off & device not connected via BT: TBUii) Tru Sleep & Heart rate monitor off: TBUiii) Tru Sleep on & Heart rate monitor off: 10 days 10 hours 27 mins - Band was used till auto off - Bt used once in morning & night to sync data - Screen used less frequently, brightness 2, night mode on, raise to wake off - Heart monitor used twice/thrice in a day -10-15 min in workout mode daily - After 0 battery indicator, it worked with full functionality for ~13 hours till auto offiv) Tru Sleep off & Heart rate monitor on: 4 days 3 hour 45 min - Band was used till auto off - BT was connected for 10% of time - Screen was used less frequently, brightness 1, raise to wake off - Band was used in workout mode for ~36 min - After 0 battery indicator, it worked with full functionality for ~5 hours till auto offv) Tru sleep & Cont. heart rate monitor on: 3 days 1 hour 35 min - Band was used till auto off - BT was connected for 40% of time - Screen was used quite frequently, Brightness Setting 1 , Raise to wake on - Band was used in workout mode for ~50 min - After 0 battery indicator, it worked with full functionality for ~2 hours till auto offGENERAL INSIGHTS & TIPSa) With everything off viz true sleep, continuous heart rate, raise to wake, rotate to switch & not connected, as in you are using it as a watch & step counter. Though this defies its sole purpose, but you get super max battery life.b) Switch off "Raise wrist to wake screen" to save battery. As it will light up screen unnecessarily evey time you move your wrist in that way, even when you don't desire to look at.*************************LOW BATTERY MODE*************************#1 At 10%1. No watch face initially on wake up. A low battery indicator is displayed. At times, partially for sometime all access is disabled via band. This is restored to full band functionality after sometime.2. Band keeps on recording everything as per settings be it heart rate, steps, sleep etc.3. Rest access via health app is as usual. You can disable heart rate & tru sleep to extend battery life further.#2 At 0%1. Default watch face is only displayed every time you wake it. Any access to band interface is disabled. You try to scroll, it displays low battery indicator.2. Band keeps on recording things as per settings, be it heart rate, steps, sleep etc.3. You wont have band interface access till its charged.4. Rest access via Health app is there with full functions available. You can disable heart rate & tru sleep to extend battery life further.***********************************************BLUETOOTH CONNECTION & ITS ISSUES***********************************************a) BT Pairing was as easy as 1,2,3b) Range is quite good. It worked properly for up to 40-50 ft with a wall in b/w.c) Once out of range it disconnects & bands BT goes to standbyd) Auto connect wont occur unless you unlock your phone & app is having sufficient priveleges to run in background. Dont restrict itd) Health app needs to be running in order for BT connection to work. If cleared of recents, it will close connection.e) I had no issues like frequent disconnections or any other related one, as reported by some users.***********************FIRMWARE UPDATE***********************Since device is newly launched, team is working a lot to provide regular updates.Fw v 1.0.0.80: Device came with this oneFw v1.0.10.20: Upon pairing it got this update (change log screenshot attached)Fw v1.0.10.24: In an hour only, another update (change log screenshot attached)Update is generally in range of 3-5mb. First its downloaded in app, then sent to band. (screenshot attached)It took around 15 min to transfer file from health app to band via BT and another 3-4 minutes for device to upgrade fw.**********************************************HONOR BAND 4 VS MI BAND 3 DEBATE**********************************************See i don't have mi band 3 right now, but it was in my purchase list along with Honor band. So here you will find the reasons why i did go for Honor Band 4, despite of being MI fan. This will help you to decide on which one to go for.Departments where Honor Band 4 is better:1. Sunlight or outdoor performance of Honor Band 4 is far far better than MI band 3 (MOST IMP)2. Colour display of Honor Band, which looks cool & UI thus looks easy to use & understand, while MI band has greyscale display.3. Higher resolution display at 240x120px. So reading out things is easy. MI Band has low resolution 128x80px.4. Heart rate sensor of Honor is much faster than MI band (almost instantly displays rate while MI band takes few secs to display heart rate, takeaway from several side by side reviews)5. Honor band is rich in features. MI band misses out a lot of things like several workout out modes in Honor while few in MI. Proper sleep tracking, day time sleep tracking, live watch face, brightness setting unavailable in MI Band.6. Honor looks better with slim look profile. (Personal taste, some may prefer MI bands curvy looks)7. Screen of MI band is curved on all sides & projected. So more prone to scratches & applying screen guard on it is another typical job.8. Battery issue in MI band as reported by many users, that not getting proper backup & got replacements9. Camera remote feature in Honor Band (though only available for Honor mobiles)10. Supporting health app of Honor Band is feature rich & detailed compared to MI fit app.11. Strap design is better here. Secure lock pins hold both strap in place, unlike in MI Band, where its a single piece & main module is snap fit. So there are chances to lose it, as reported by some users who lost it without any hint while strap was on hand.12. UI of Band is also feature rich with proper in band settings13. Theres 24 hour sleep tracking with REM sleep & breathing data also available. These 3 are unavailable in MI Band.Departments where MI Band 3 is better:1. Comparatively soft & comfortable band strap2. Better spare strap availability due to MI's own store.3. Better battery backup due to grayscale display, unlike colour in Honor Band.4. No any features that are MI phone specific. Seriously Honor should take up this point & make all its features universal in future updates.5. Cheaper******************FINAL VERDICT******************For now Honor band looks well, performs well & is best buck for the price bracket. Its a nice & beautiful device with color AMOLED screen. Company has put in lot of efforts to deliver good device & companion app. Some hiccups can be easily rectified by company via updates. You wont regret buying it.To be honest the departments where Honor band 4 excels or is better compared to similar bands cant be ignored & are worth the extra money invested. Minor issues there can be fixed in future firmware updates. So in the end of the day, i went on for Honor Band 4.a) If your budget is low & you can ignore the things discussed above, go for MI band 3. It best in class device in its price bracket. Remember you cant get everything in 2k range.b) But if you can extend your budget by few hundreds, then definitely go for Honor Band 4 without any second thought.c) If you are looking for serious activity tracking, then extend your budget further by 1000's. Remember these devices are budget devices, & expect similar features & performance from them. Just dont exxpect wonders & get disappointed to rate them low.Rest i will frequently update review based on usage as it will take few weeks to completely judge this band wrt battery life & accuracy in various modes.
