I bought mine band7 a few days ago, and was wondering if it was really that good, your video helped a lot, never saw any reviews like yours, you’re the GOAT man, thx for the help!!!!!!!
I'm not a fan of wearable tech, but I needed a watch that's under 60 euros for tracking my activity, and seeing this perform better than the whoop which is very heavily sponsored and much more expensive , I'm happy with knowing it's not going to be a bad performer. the detail in the video is incredible so thanks for putting it out there !
Just found your channel. I'm planning on replacing my Mi Band 5 and I've binged several of your reviews. My Mi Band has disappointed me a lot, especially since they changed the app (from Mi Fit to Zepp Life). I've found your channel to be highly informative. I hope Huawei addresses the sleep tracking issues since I'm in love with its HR and step counter features. Never thought Amazfits were that bad, considering how good they look. Thanks for the info 👍🏾
As someone with multiple degrees in exercise science, I am loving the analysis of these trackers. This is significantly more insightful than other reviews which really only tell you the features, and nothing about the efficacy of the device they are trying to make you buy. You really should have more subs.
Exercise science?! Damn, I never knew, that that was an option... Always thought, that rehabilitation, surgery or endocrinology is the top choice for a broad and medical education in exercising. How is studying it? What do you study? Can you explain Stimulating Reps theory, for example? How knowledgeable do people really end up after graduating? Please tell me, I am so interested in your experience.
Im following your video for about 1 year ago and thank you so much, even im not buying smartwatch/band every single product release, your video still entertaining for me, keep up sir !
I'm surprised Band 7 didn't outperform Band 6. That's a pity! Still, there is a chance after updates Band 7 performance will be improved Thanks for a great review!
I really appreciate your hard work, quality content and I must say you help people make a better purchase unlike the other TH-camrs whom smack features and read pamphlet from the manufacturer, thank you
Amazing review! Huawei watches seem to be quite good on most tasks, but fall short on sleep tracking. I've been wondering if using Sleep for Android app to take advantage of these watch's sensors would make for better sleep tracking, have you ever experimented that app?
Sadly Huawei watches cannot be used with Sleep for Android as I realized a bit too late after buying. Their sdk does not allow you to interact with the watch directly, only indirectly through their Health app, meaning you can't use the watches data on its own but only the already process data
I love and appreciate your work in analysing the accuracy of modern watches, but I made an astonishing experience, that might be worth to think about regarding sleep tracking. When checking your experience of sleep tracking of the Amazfit GTR3, that watch is pretty perfect (and even better than the Withings Sleep Analyzer) regarding only the total or complete(!) sleep time, meaning the time between falling in sleep and awakening. And my experience is exactly the same: That GTR3 is pretty perfect when measuring the complete(!) sleep time. But wait: This Huawei Band 7 on the other hand is measured by you as one ot the worst regarding complete(!) sleep time. So far, so good. One could resume, that you should not take this Huawei Band 7, even if you are fine with only the complete sleep time. But now my experience: I wear the Amazfit GTR3 on my left hand and the Huawei Band 7 on my right hand now for a week, and I noticed, that both watches measured always(!) the same (+/- 1min) total sleep time ! How is this possible ? When checking a lot (but not all) of your videos regarding the exact tracking of sleep stages, I noticed, that every(!) watch has some problems, measuring the right stages of sleep. Even the best systems like the Withings Sleep Analyzer lacks a lot of accuracy: None of them tracks sleep stages in a range of 80% or better. Only regarding total (or complete) sleep time, there are a few watches (like the GTR3), which are pretty near (say more than 98%) to the actual complete sleep data, regarding your measurements. So how is it possible, that you measured the Huawei Band 7 different than the Amazfit GTR3, but I noticed, that they track complete(!) sleep exactly the same ? Well - maybe we do have different sleep habbits. And some watches do track well the sleep of one person, but have trouble, tracking the sleep of an other person. My conclusion: Tracking sleep stages is still mostly only a rough estimation, tracking total or complete sleep might be working much better, but even there, the accuracy might be different from person to person.
I want to add about step counter. Huawei apps also count steps taken by phone sensor. It would be great if you do both: with phone in pocket and without phone at all to check if it's more accurate if the phone is inside pocket
Hey Rob! I was one of your first subscribers :) It's good to see that the channel is growing so much! Wanted to ask: what are the best budget sleep trackers in your opinion? Thanks for the great work!
Thank you very much for your videos. Watching you from Ukraine. You make a very important tests and unique content. Take my like :) Ps during last months I realized that physical training helps to stay in charge even in the most difficult situations. So if someone of you have difficult times or depression - please just go for a walk on the street or visit some gym near you. It really helps.
Hi Rob. Great review as usual. Keep it up! Have you considered reviewing a COROS device? They've just released na interesting update which claims to detect the REM stage and I'm sure we would all love to hear your opinion on that...
Hi Clauder! Yes, I saw that popping by. I might start reviewing COROS products at some point, but there are so many things to test 😊 . My first COROS video did not seem to be very in demand
Great review. I really like you videos! I think you could more indeep comparison between 6 band and 7 band of Huawei, or against their competitors like Mi band 6. Once again, thank you for the great video.
Superb video again. Your hard work shows in the detailed analysis. One thing I noticed, the Huawei Band 6 though quite accurate as a step counter seems to have a mind of its own and counts steps even while the person is totally at rest and not even wearing the Band.
Hi Amanda. Just to clarify, no brand has every paid me anything or sponsored me for a review. My opinions are my own. Happy to discuss if you disagree with my conclusions, but the data I present are the actual data I collected, and no company has any influence over them.
@@TheQuantifiedScientist Thankyou for reply Rob! I alreadt bought one since this is on sale in my country haha. Hoping the heart rate tracker of the watch fit 2 is comparable on the watch gt3 as you mentioned on yoir previous video
Just a personal advice. I got the band 6 (maybe it is the same with the band 7). I used it in the pool and it broke, probably one of the connectors with the button. So maybe be careful with that. Thankfully Huawei replaced mine when I took it to their service. There is a video on youtube of a guy that says clicking the button under water damages it (wich is what I did). He also says that his band revived after drying out for a few days (mine did not revived, it got stuck in a reboot loop). But who knows, maybe mine was just a defective device. Other than that it has been a good heart rate sensor and sleep monitor (just for the total sleep time and nap time). Also, thanks Quantified Scientist, you make a great job here, next time I'm definitely buying whatever you recomend.
Amazing and detailed review. It's a bit disappointing that the Band 7 gets slightly worse accuracy than Band 6, I was looking to upgrade from Honor Band 6. But as you mentioned, both seem to have the same sensors, so maybe it's a matter of software updates and the Band 7 will get better at tracking. Still on the fence whether I should wait for Band 7 or get the Watch Fit as it's even better than Band 6... Though it's more bulky, I love the small form factor of Huawei bands, you don't notice them on your wrist.
Hi, your reviews are amazing and very specific. Thank you for the work you do! I would all like to advise you to add the accuracy of gait tracking when you do sportwatch reviews: it would be interesting to understand, in addition to beats and GPS accuracy, which device is more accurate in recording the average pace (it can be done either cycling or walking while running). Indeed, it seems that the various smartwatches are very different on this point!
Oh finally the wait is finally over! I was a bit worried last couple of weeks, I was thinking like "What if I buy Huawei Band 6 right now then immediately Huawei Band 7 is released days after I'd be fucked up", and now I have update the wishlist 🤣👌
I searched for a group of Arab videos that talk about the same topic, and I only found the satisfactory explanation in your videos, 'Thank you for your effort.
I am curious about the stress measurement. I use this band and whenever I do massage to clients (I'm a massage therapist) my stress level will go high 😂 even though i don't feel stressed at all.
Hi! Have you ever considered testing the Fossil Hybrid HR? It's an interesting hybrid watch using e-ink, claiming to have a 25-day battery life while also having fitness features. However, I'm not too sure about the accuracy. Appreciate it!
That was informative. I was researching all over for the sleep tracking accuracy of huawei band 7 and it is off my list now after watching this video. Thanks
Wow, Rob! Your videos are incredible, and so helpful. Thank-you so much. One thing that I find frustrating with this Huawei band is that it does not count side steps or backward and forward motions that are not full steps. For example, when I am working on our canning line, I am constantly side stepping and back stepping. I have done that for hours at a time without the Huawei band logging a single step! It seems a little unfair since I am always getting a workout! My Fitbit always logged those steps. It's a rather big anomaly that I thought you might find interesting for future videos! On the exact same type of work day, the Fitbit would log over 20,000 steps while the Huawei Band 7 will give me 3,700! Why the big difference? I know that the Fitbit tends to give you some free steps, but that discrepancy is crazy. Is it in the type of sensor used?
Thank you very much for the review! I'm in thoughts of buying these watches and was not sure if sleep tracking began to be reliable compared to 4-5 years old models. The testing cleared everything I've been doubting about!👍
I had decided to buy this Huawei Band 7 but I reminded something decisive to me. Spo2, heart rate, step count and other details are pretty important to me, but what about stress sensor? I mean, Huawei Band 7 has it? Have you checked it out on another video? It'd be pretty nice if you had it 🙏🏽✨ Really pretty thanks for these videos. I was going to buy Xiaomi Mi Band 7 but I saw Huaweis better (for my necessities). You are the best dude. 🙏🏽
@@tienatho2149 and that algorithm is good enough in Huawei Band 7? or there are better bands for that? I mean, I already bought Band 7 but I want to know.
Heloo Hope you are good and have a Nice day. I would like to hear from the best about the accurate the watches below, which is best?. Maybe in GPS, heart tracking. Need to buy soon as possible. You the best out here så let me know what you think. Maybe Forerunner 255 vs Forerunner 955 the new watches vs garmin instinct 2 solar as you mentioned before . Which is The best of them 3, which more accurate?
Mr Rob, for the casual ("poor") athlete, best sportwatch with GPS: Huawei GT 2e (TruSeen 3.5) x Huawei Band 7 (TruSeen 4.0) x Huawei Band 4 Pro (TruSeen 3.5)?
Thank you for this! I am thinking about getting this for my mom because ae need to monitor her oxygen levels and you gave me a lot of help in deciding if it is worth it. ☺️
Good job, but just add RAW EEG spectrogram to somnograms compairing slides (on top of as example)! It will be much more informative and answered to many questions about relevaiting of your compairing.
I am quite happy with the Huawei Band 6 I bought in March 2022, your review help me decide... that and also a great deal at 30€. I did not get it for the sleep tracking so the under performance do not bother me much, that mentioned not being able to set up the sleep time range is bad and if you are working on a night shift the band is 100% useless as the sleep time is considered as naps and you do not have any details. But again for what I got it (steps, some activities, heart rate etc...) I am ok and will not upgrade to the 7, maybe to the Watch Fit but I like a small wearable device as I am always wearing an automatic watch and will never stop. Also as an iOS device user, I have to say that you do not get the SMS and that's a shame.
Hi! I'm from Brazil and I just discovered your channel, I understand a little of what you say through the translated comments to get an idea which one is better in your comparisons.... my 2 doubts are the following: 1* which is the best smart band or smartwatch to monitor sleep up to about 105 dollars? 2* which is the best up to about 55 dollars? If you can answer me I would be very grateful for the help, because I want a smartwatch / smartband to monitor my sleep around these values.... You just got my like and another subscriber to your channel.
Hello! Thank you for your video, it’s really informative and very help me. But I have one question, many people say that in huawei band 6 doesn’t work music with iOS devises (for example, Apple Music), did it fix in new version?
Just wondering, when will you re-test the Withings Scanwatch on its latest firmware? I have the Scanwatch and the Honor band 4. I tested on playing badminton, where the Scanwatch recorded significantly higher HR than the Honor band 4, I am talking about Scanwatch giving me an average HR of 165 and the Honor gave me 116. I tested a few rounds and the results were similar. Which results make more sense to you? I'd love to hear your thoughts since you are an experience scientist on these tests. Thank you.
Hello! I really like your channel. The analyzes are very interesting and useful. I would like to know how to export data from huawei band. Can you tell me? Thanks!!
Thankyou sir ,for the review.. but sir, you could have talked about the smart alarm feature in the watch.. ie if it works well or not... That feature could be a major use to many many people.. and I have a question sir, does any other smart band have that smart alarm feature ( which wakes you up when you are in light sleep).. does the amazefit bip u pro have that feature ?
Hi Miqdad! I think at this pricepoint it does quite well indeed. However, after updates the Mi Band 6 also did quite well (and hopefully also the Mi band 7 :-D )
Thank you for the great review!!! Now i know that i can ignore all the sleep stage data! There is also something called "Breathing Quality" (under sleep section) and stress scores in the HUAWEI Health app I wonder if they are accurate.
Thank you for the great video. But I'm very surprised that your sleep only ever seems to have a deep sleep phase in the first third of the night. Can that really be the case? Is that correct?
Bro iam from india and i thought to bought a smartwatch/band and did some research and i found your channel it was a gem. Initially i thought i would go for amazfit bip u pro and see your review and decided to bought haewaii band 6 or mi band 6.your suggestion needed. I only want some decent tracking on skipping exercise. Will you please suggest me and what about some indian brands(boat,noise,real me etc) it will increase your view count as well. Thank you for all your reviews.
I love your reviews. Why don't you do calories measurements. Because I have bought this band 7 and the calories counter is so ridiculously low. I'm disappointed
Hello.... excellent video, always very useful.... please do the analysis of the new Garmin forerunner 255 series... I want to buy it but not without seeing your analysis.... please, greetings and thank you very much. ...
Thank you very much for the information, you are so cool! I'm choosing between huawei 7 and xiaomi 7 pro, but can't find information about this xiaomi product.
Hey, I just started using a Garmin Instinct 2 and I had some questions after watching your review on it. I mainly want to use it for tracking 2 things: my progress with training for a triathlon and my total sleep time (since the detection of different sleep stages isn't very accurate anyway). How should I use the watch to get the best results? Is it okay if I only wear it when exercising and going to bed, or should I really be wearing it the entire day? I'd love to hear your insight on this! Thanks for all the content :)
I not a scientist, but I think you should wear it the whole day, because then the watch will take more information about you and say how long you should recover after exercise (if recovery is important to you). AND BECAUSE YOU MUST SHOW OF YOUR WATCH!!🤣🤣🤣
@@gabbiesjoubert6197 I bought a super inappropriate lime coloured one, which turned out to be dirty faded yellow. So I ain't showing that off hahaha. Besides, It's just a tool. I have a nice mechanical watch which I wear every day.
I just found your channel and subscribed, such great quality review, i would like to ask if you can do a review on Mi Scale Body Composition, it claimed can measure body composition, like body fat etc, i would like to know how accurate it is, Thankyou very much
I am using band 7 .Do you recommend to upgrade to huawei GT runner? I would like to use it for running as i am start running as beginner level.Also O new user for wear watch
It's always nice to see HR testing during activities, but what about testing HR measures outside activities? Some watches I had was giving fairly accurate measures during activities, but was totally unacurate outside activities when I'm looking at my real time HR at a glance.
Lots of comments for fit adults, who are into gym, cycle riding and running. What about the vast market of pensioners who need to have note of their fitness/ activity . Plus need the motivation and warning of ,overdoing activity. You do not notice till the following day,and then suffer the pain and stiffness. Looking forward to you comment. Peter
hi Rob thank you for the review. thanks to your channel I bought Huawei band 6 last year and am very happy with it.. I bought it at a major discount special offer from aliexpress for 30$. kinda sad to see that at the moment the band 7 didn't add anything new (GPS? camera? internet??) but nonetheless it's still a great watch!
I'm confused now about these watches using the HRV ( stress ) . My understanding is the healthier you are, the higher the number is, but when they display the numbers its a low number that they consider the best number which is the OPPERSITE of what we trying to gauge?!? what am i missing here, ill appreciate any explanations please
either this one or fitbit luxe not sure which one to get..i think the luxe has better sleep detection and heart rate monitoring is decent .almost as good so the band 7 seems not as versitile and overall not as useful .i wish they had body temp and blood pressure even iif b.p is so great on these devices its still nice to have thanks for the review

Exactly at which point of the left arm did you wear the watch? 2/1 finger of distance from the wrist?
I had decided to buy this Huawei Band 7 but I reminded something decisive to me.
Spo2, heart rate, step count and other details are pretty important to me, but what about stress sensor? I mean, Huawei Band 7 has it? Have you checked it out on another video? It'd be pretty nice if you had it 🙏🏽✨
Really pretty thanks for these videos. I was going to buy Xiaomi Mi Band 7 but I saw Huaweis better (for my necessities). You are the best dude. 🙏🏽
Stress point is calculated based on heart rate and Huawei's algorithm.
@@tienatho2149 and that algorithm is good enough in Huawei Band 7? or there are better bands for that?
I mean, I already bought Band 7 but I want to know.
Amazing reviews mate. Thanks a lot for your work, it's extremely helpful.
Heloo Hope you are good and have a Nice day.
I would like to hear from the best about the accurate the watches below, which is best?. Maybe in GPS, heart tracking. Need to buy soon as possible.
You the best out here så let me know what you think.
Maybe Forerunner 255 vs Forerunner 955 the new watches vs garmin instinct 2 solar as you mentioned before . Which is The best of them 3, which more accurate?
Mr Rob, for the casual ("poor") athlete, best sportwatch with GPS:
Huawei GT 2e (TruSeen 3.5) x Huawei Band 7 (TruSeen 4.0) x Huawei Band 4 Pro (TruSeen 3.5)?
I really like the new correlation overview! Makes things way easier to find a accurate watch!
@The Quantified Scientist
This is not you right?
Thank you for this! I am thinking about getting this for my mom because ae need to monitor her oxygen levels and you gave me a lot of help in deciding if it is worth it. ☺️
Good job, but just add RAW EEG spectrogram to somnograms compairing slides (on top of as example)!
It will be much more informative and answered to many questions about relevaiting of your compairing.
I am quite happy with the Huawei Band 6 I bought in March 2022, your review help me decide... that and also a great deal at 30€.
I did not get it for the sleep tracking so the under performance do not bother me much, that mentioned not being able to set up the sleep time range is bad and if you are working on a night shift the band is 100% useless as the sleep time is considered as naps and you do not have any details.
But again for what I got it (steps, some activities, heart rate etc...) I am ok and will not upgrade to the 7, maybe to the Watch Fit but I like a small wearable device as I am always wearing an automatic watch and will never stop.
Also as an iOS device user, I have to say that you do not get the SMS and that's a shame.
Hi! I'm from Brazil and I just discovered your channel, I understand a little of what you say through the translated comments to get an idea which one is better in your comparisons.... my 2 doubts are the following: 1* which is the best smart band or smartwatch to monitor sleep up to about 105 dollars? 2* which is the best up to about 55 dollars? If you can answer me I would be very grateful for the help, because I want a smartwatch / smartband to monitor my sleep around these values.... You just got my like and another subscriber to your channel.
Note: I'm using Google translator and I hope you understand my questions, thanks! 🤣✌️

Hello! Thank you for your video, it’s really informative and very help me. But I have one question, many people say that in huawei band 6 doesn’t work music with iOS devises (for example, Apple Music), did it fix in new version?
Just wondering, when will you re-test the Withings Scanwatch on its latest firmware? I have the Scanwatch and the Honor band 4. I tested on playing badminton, where the Scanwatch recorded significantly higher HR than the Honor band 4, I am talking about Scanwatch giving me an average HR of 165 and the Honor gave me 116. I tested a few rounds and the results were similar. Which results make more sense to you? I'd love to hear your thoughts since you are an experience scientist on these tests. Thank you.
Love your stuff, Can we get an update on the accuracy of the device after updates, and the same with the mi band. Thanks 🤘
Hello!
I really like your channel.
The analyzes are very interesting and useful.
I would like to know how to export data from huawei band. Can you tell me?
Thanks!!
Always on time for reviews
Exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you!
1 question, will you do a comparison between 6 and 7?
Man, you're awesome. Such a great video compared to the rest. Keep it coming 👍
Thankyou sir ,for the review.. but sir, you could have talked about the smart alarm feature in the watch.. ie if it works well or not... That feature could be a major use to many many people.. and I have a question sir, does any other smart band have that smart alarm feature ( which wakes you up when you are in light sleep)..
does the amazefit bip u pro have that feature ?
I think the Huawei Band 6 really set the bar very high for the competition at its price range
Hi Miqdad! I think at this pricepoint it does quite well indeed. However, after updates the Mi Band 6 also did quite well (and hopefully also the Mi band 7 :-D )
@@TheQuantifiedScientist is amazefit band 7 better than huawei band 6?
Which mode do you activate in order to track weight lifting? Thanks in advance 😁
Thank you for the great review!!! Now i know that i can ignore all the sleep stage data!
There is also something called "Breathing Quality" (under sleep section) and stress scores in the HUAWEI Health app I wonder if they are accurate.
Thank you for the great video. But I'm very surprised that your sleep only ever seems to have a deep sleep phase in the first third of the night. Can that really be the case? Is that correct?
is it good for swimming? btw amazing review..
Bro iam from india and i thought to bought a smartwatch/band and did some research and i found your channel it was a gem. Initially i thought i would go for amazfit bip u pro and see your review and decided to bought haewaii band 6 or mi band 6.your suggestion needed. I only want some decent tracking on skipping exercise. Will you please suggest me and what about some indian brands(boat,noise,real me etc) it will increase your view count as well. Thank you for all your reviews.
I love your reviews. Why don't you do calories measurements. Because I have bought this band 7 and the calories counter is so ridiculously low. I'm disappointed
Hello.... excellent video, always very useful.... please do the analysis of the new Garmin forerunner 255 series... I want to buy it but not without seeing your analysis.... please, greetings and thank you very much. ...
Why don't you use the finger pulse oximeter for heart rate on indoor biking? Is the polar chest band better at measuring?
@TheQuantifiedScientist would you consider review the Amazfit Band 7? Pretty please? 🙏🏼
So helpful! Thank you very much for this very insightful review!
Could u please review smartwatches in a video which have better heart rate monitor and are in the range of less than 60$
Superb channel. Keep it up brother!
Thanks so much Aditya!
Thank you very much for the information, you are so cool!
I'm choosing between huawei 7 and xiaomi 7 pro, but can't find information about this xiaomi product.
Hey, I just started using a Garmin Instinct 2 and I had some questions after watching your review on it. I mainly want to use it for tracking 2 things: my progress with training for a triathlon and my total sleep time (since the detection of different sleep stages isn't very accurate anyway). How should I use the watch to get the best results? Is it okay if I only wear it when exercising and going to bed, or should I really be wearing it the entire day? I'd love to hear your insight on this! Thanks for all the content :)
I not a scientist, but I think you should wear it the whole day, because then the watch will take more information about you and say how long you should recover after exercise (if recovery is important to you). AND BECAUSE YOU MUST SHOW OF YOUR WATCH!!🤣🤣🤣
@@gabbiesjoubert6197 I bought a super inappropriate lime coloured one, which turned out to be dirty faded yellow. So I ain't showing that off hahaha. Besides, It's just a tool. I have a nice mechanical watch which I wear every day.
@@lividmatter4862 🤣
Great review! Can't wait for Mi Band 7 to be tested
When do you think he will test it?
@@Ibero_Slav No idea, mate. I don't have any inside info, but I assume it's gonna be in the upcoming 3-4 weeks.
@@HandleHandleson ok thx bro thats my guess too, lets wait for it
I just found your channel and subscribed, such great quality review, i would like to ask if you can do a review on Mi Scale Body Composition, it claimed can measure body composition, like body fat etc, i would like to know how accurate it is,
Thankyou very much
I am using band 7 .Do you recommend to upgrade to huawei GT runner? I would like to use it for running as i am start running as beginner level.Also O new user for wear watch
It's always nice to see HR testing during activities, but what about testing HR measures outside activities? Some watches I had was giving fairly accurate measures during activities, but was totally unacurate outside activities when I'm looking at my real time HR at a glance.
Where do you think he did the cycling test? ;)
Lots of comments for fit adults, who are into gym, cycle riding and running. What about the vast market of pensioners who need to have note of their fitness/ activity . Plus need the motivation and warning of ,overdoing activity. You do not notice till the following day,and then suffer the pain and stiffness. Looking forward to you comment. Peter
Are you planning to review the latest garmin 255 and/or 955?
thank you for uploading this video i was looking to purchase this band and i love the red colour
hi Rob thank you for the review. thanks to your channel I bought Huawei band 6 last year and am very happy with it.. I bought it at a major discount special offer from aliexpress for 30$.
kinda sad to see that at the moment the band 7 didn't add anything new (GPS? camera? internet??) but nonetheless it's still a great watch!
Hi, what do you think about oppo watch free? Does it measure correctly?
I'm confused now about these watches using the HRV ( stress ) . My understanding is the healthier you are, the higher the number is, but when they display the numbers its a low number that they consider the best number which is the OPPERSITE of what we trying to gauge?!?
what am i missing here, ill appreciate any explanations please
either this one or fitbit luxe not sure which one to get..i think the luxe has better sleep detection and heart rate monitoring is decent .almost as good so the band 7 seems not as versitile and overall not as useful .i wish they had body temp and blood pressure even iif b.p is so great on these devices its still nice to have thanks for the review
can you do a review of the huawei band 8?
Would it be a worthy upgrade from Honor (not Huawei) Band 6 to Huawei Band 7?
