A little bit not what I expected, generally fine.

I switched to this bracelet from Honor Band 3 and I am somewhat disappointed . first of all, autonomy - the third one worked much longer. I also didn’t like the strap: here the clasp is like on a watch, and on the third there was a clip, which IMHO is much more convenient when playing sports. The problem with this clasp is that it constantly clings to everything. In addition, in the third gang, the "swimming" mode was turned on and off by tapping the knuckles on the screen. In the fifth, completing the workout is far from the first time, and as a rule, after carefully wiping your hands from the water .
But the most important thing is still autonomy: my wife has Mi band 4 and its autonomy, I can only envy. I would take something from Xiaomi, but I don’t really like how they look on my hand.

Pros

Good ergonomics. Great look. Nice display. The calculation for sports is quite correct, with the exception of swimming, IMHO. Waterproof. Saturation level measurement: maybe not as accurate as with special devices, but a really working feature - I checked it for myself when I was sick. You can control music from your phone (although the controls are very limited).

Cons

Very short operating time: 4-5 days, and this is with the constant heart rate measurement turned off. The weather information is too small. Uncomfortable clasp. In the "swimming" mode, it is problematic to complete the workout. Information about the weather and the percentage of charge are displayed on the screen in a microscopic form.

With its pros. Everything that was stated is. Glitch not found Some cons: I was hoping for stronger vibration and synchronization with the alarm clock and not for putting it in a separate application.
