Exactly what I needed, it's a great buy, I recommend it.

Before that, I used Mi Band 3 for almost a year. I took Honor Band 5 specifically for measuring sleep, since Mi Band has problems with this - it did not count daytime sleep. In general, I like everything, except for how the notifications are implemented: the icons do not show, I have to display all the spam that comes to the phone, since there is no Telegram in the list of applications. Synchronization in the Huawei Health app is many times faster than in Mi Fit for Xiaomi, and there is also a link to Apple Health.

To sum up, the transition from Mi Band 3 fully justified itself, but you can still think about choosing Mi Band 4. If notifications and music switching are more important to you, then take the Mi Band. If more accurate sensors and high-quality performance, then Honor Band.

Pros

- Oximeter - Soft strap - Flicker-free color screen - Nice oleophobic coating - Thin enough: does not cling to the pillow in a dream - Quick alarm setting, immediately after opening the application - Accurate sleep measurement

Cons

- Few dials - The timer is buried in "More" (On Mi Band 4 similarly) - The battery is smaller than in analogues, I had to reconfigure the constant pulse measurement to "smart", otherwise it was enough for a couple of days - Notifications are inconvenient, there is no Telegram support - For the oximeter to work, the strap must be tightened quite tightly
