Review on Smart bracelet HONOR Band 5, blue by Anastasiia Hrytsenko ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Think twice before you buy-the product is disgusting.

In fact, this bracelet does not even deserve one star. All those few pluses that it has are overlapped by its many minuses. There is no way to install Huawei Health necessary for operation on any tablet. Of the four smartphones, we managed to install it on all four, but pair it only on one (and only (!) With GPS turned on), in the remaining three cases, the pairing ended with an application crash with an error. The pedometer is lying, as many have written, in a big way. Sleep monitoring. Disgusting. Watching TV consistently counts as light sleep, but randomly: it can count 45 minutes, or maybe more than 3 hours. At the same time, it often happens that during wakefulness at 00-50 it already shows 1 hour and 30 minutes of sleep on the bracelet, which is simply impossible theoretically, because. at 00-00 all the data collected during the day are reset to zero with the advent of a new day. With the Huawei TruSleep function enabled, it was possible to read data from the bracelet in Huawei Health only for the first time, then for a month of use: when synchronizing, the bracelet "downloads data" for 7-10 minutes, after reaching 100% progress, it displays the message "No sleep data. Check the data device sleep". With Huawei TruSleep disabled, sleep data syncs quickly, but only with two sleep phases and a random tail of non-existent light sleep while watching TV. Constantly loses Bluetooth connection. Interestingly, the smartphone sees the bracelet as Honor Band 4, although the smartphone has never paired with the fourth. I don’t want to write about Huawei Health. Bad starting with usability and ending with the banal failure of the program to work with the device. Multiple resets, reinstallations of Huawei Health, cleaning the application buffer, forced discharge of the bracelet to zero, as well as ates to the bracelet software did absolutely nothing.

Pros
  • The appearance of the bracelet, build quality. Pulse measurement and oxygenation (SpO2) work plus or minus correctly.
Cons
  • Not compatible with all tablets, not compatible with many smartphones. Disgusting quality of sleep monitoring. The pedometer is lying in a big way. Terrible software (Huawei Health).
