I have a feeling that based on this review, many of you are going to want to buy the Huawei Band 8, and there are definitely some good reasons to do that. However, I will also show you that the Band 8 has a number of limitations, so make sure that these are not deal-breakers for you, before pulling the trigger. As always, I will present systematic analyses of the raw data collected with the Huawei Band 8, so you can objectively evaluate if the Huawei Band 8 meets your needs! Let’s get started!
This is the single most requested review of the last months, and it has been a challenge to get it out. However, I finally managed to get my hands on two Huawei Band 8’s, and I’ve been testing them for about 3 weeks. And, after all this testing, the Huawei Band 8 appears to be the best performer in its price class, in certain areas at least, likely making it a very attractive option for many of you. Optically, the Huawei Band 8 looks similar to the Huawei Band 7 and Band 6, with some slight modifications, and the major changes are performance when it comes to heart rate and sleep stage tracking. The Huawei Band 8 launches with a new generation of the heart rate tracking algorithm and a new generation of the sleep tracking algorithm, compared to the older Band 7. So, this will be my focus in this review, and I will systematically test the Huawei Band 8. As you know, I generally do not list specs of watches, since you can find those on Huawei’s website, but I did want to note two things: first of all, I was impressed with the fast charging of the Band 8, which is supposed to charge to capacity in 45 minutes. I didn’t time it, but this seems to be about right compared to my experience. Second, in the advertisements I saw online, I somehow got the feeling that the screen was a bit bigger than it appears in reality. Maybe this is just me, but I found it important to share that impression.
I am really impressed with the heart rate tracking, and I expect that many of you will end up getting a Band 8, because heart rate tracking is likely the most important feature for many of my viewers. Still, when it comes to the overall package, it’s not complete as the sleep stage tracking is just bad. Considering all of this, overall, I’d give the Huawei Band 8, 3.5 out of 5 stars. There are a few important other factors to consider before getting this device. First of all, Huawei has been facing restrictions in America, meaning they don’t have access to Google services, and you might need to install their own app store to get all functionalities. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

Hey, i really love the videos you make, detailing the accuracy of each aspect of the watch. I suggest you make a video on the Huawei watch fit special edition. They have said that they've improved the accuracy. Thanks!
That is one detailed review.👌🏽 How accurate it is in step tracking?
How did you measure weightlifting session results? in which option of training parameters?
I've been looking for that option and didnt noticed that particular one - only pile of running and cycling nonsense...:)
Although ,that was in the store,so maybe not all of them were shown in that "test" watch.
Now,I believe it has one - if Xiaomi got one Huawei must have it,too.
Did you found it or what would be proper alternative for weightlifting measurement in presented options on the workout list?
Please include the Firmware versions in your reviews. All brands are constantly upgrading their firmware & algorithm.
Every time I saw a new smartwatch from Huawei, I always went to go to this Channel. Waiting for the Huwawei Band 9 review.
Rob is the only reviewer i trust when it comes to testing new smart bands ans watches. Thanks for what you're doing!
Please what is the difference huawei band 8_1 and huawei band 8_2 ??
Reviews on this channel did make a huge difference for me. I'm not even near exercises for now so accurate resting heart rate was very important for me. No money for apple wach (not even SE) so needed the most accurate band for the lowest price. I used Honor Band 6 and now using Huawei watch fit 2. As they use same mobile app I can only recommend it as great. I also think this band, with this score is 'best buy' as long as heart rate maters... Omg! I'm so glad to found this channel that helped me a lot over year! Thank you Rob!!
Mein 👍 und Kommentar für Deine unermüdliche Mühe und Arbeit schon mal vor dem Guggn Deines neuesten VDOs 🙏
I just found your channel and wow!!! this content should be out there more!! I love reviews like this not sponsord just absolute user experience and a thorough review!
Out of all the watch review channels this channel is one of the very best out there, especially because he gives objective results and tests them properly and not just based on how he feels. A true content creator.
I bought the band 8 today based on your band 7 review since the sensors are identical and the only slight difference is on the design. I didn't bother about sleep tracking as my focus was on accurate heart rate and fitness tracking (with a decent clock interface and timer/stopwatch). I am surprised to see the review published today and it is extremely reassuring that I made a good purchase. Your reviews are excellent and have definitely saved me some good amount of money!
Have you noticed that when it's too hot the band stops, because i heard some users experienced that?
You have huawei band 8 now bro? How is it
Can you use stopwatch while also tracking a workout? Basically if I wanted to time my sets while also tracking the workout alongside without pausing or stopping the actual workout mode?
Thank you, sir. I eagerly anticipate your forthcoming evaluation of the Huawei Watch 4 / Huawei Watch 4 Pro
Thanks Rob! Just ordered one today for mainly outdoor running, and it was on sale! :)
I was waiting for this. Great video!
Based on your findings, Band 8 is a super alternative to any smartwatch and superior in terms of price to quality. In Indonesia, its one of the most popular watch for that reasons even though huawei is not so popular in the smartphone industry, buyers are well informed of its quality when compared to more popular indonesian market brands such as Xiaomi, Fitbit, Apple and even Samsung watches.
I managed to get Huawei band 8, so I did some tests myself and compared with my band 7. The exercise was walking outdoors, according to GPS the distance was 3 km, according to band 7 - 2,74 km, and band 8 - 2,63 km. The pulse was almost exactly the same on both devices, 122 medium and 146 max on band 7, 124 medium and 146 max on band 8. The second device picked up 46 more steps, with average length 4 cm shorter. I did couple other measurements on different distances and conclusions were the same - band 8 lowers the distance comparing to reality, while pulse measurement is basically the same with band 7.
I can't say anything yet about other activities nor I haven't compared these two when they co-op with GPS from phone. But it someone only needs a daily tracker for steps and burned calories, then no need to upgrade from 7 to 8.
What about the steps? I don't really care about the distance but I have bought a band 8, mostly to track my steps.
Thnx rob, great review. Bought the band 8 tracker, but how did you track the outdoor cycling? Since i cant find it in the training options. Cheers
I didn't know this channel existed. Glad i stumbled upon it. Thank you Rob for what you do!
Amazing video, super informative and reliable showing data compared to top performing devices like the Polar H10. Thanks Rob!
Are you planning a video about the Huawei Watch 4 Pro?
Amazing review, sir. Keep doing nice quality reviews as you're the one doing at this level.
This is truly amazing to have some advanced review like this. Thank you very much.
This video is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much!
The most scientific review I've ever seen on TH-cam. Thank you very much for your excellent effort.
I saw your video on Mi Band 8 first when i was about to buy it, and was enough to not purchase and instead went for the Huawei band 8 based on your review on the Band 7. I'm glad it was the right purchase and your video made a HUGE DIFFERENCE! KEEP UP THE GREAT CONTENT!
Keep the hard work loving the content I’m really grateful
Wooh! Been waiting for this one.
Great review as always Rob! Your pleasant, positive attitude really makes watching a 20+ min data driven review about daily tech all the more enjoyable.😎Looking forward to your take on the Mi Smart Band 8 Pro. Cheers!
Mí Band 8 pro is out now?
@@iktheboy7594 I believe it released quite recently for China. Might be a couple months until it reaches Global market.
This is very valuable information, thank you!
I bought mine two days ago based on your general recommendation for Huawei watches!
Glad to hear that the heart rate tracking really is as good as I had assumed :)
Can you use stopwatch while also tracking a workout? Basically if I wanted to time my sets while also tracking the workout alongside without pausing or stopping the actual workout mode?
Watching your video is like reading a scientific journal. Really impressive and informative!
I was waiting for this since I bought it last week and I knew (guessed) what your results would be like. So, thanks again for the effort you put in those reviews! I think it's fantastic. I am using it for crosstrainer and health tracking, especially for sleep. Though you can't select heart rate tracking frequency by settings, because its either off or auto, and in auto when you're not moving the intervals spread up to 10 mins, there is a workaround. Just record your night as a training (I'm using yoga) and recording 6 or 7 oder even 12 hours of training is no problem. Also, contrary to the manual, the band will do SPo2, Stress and even sleep tracking simultaneously, and this is exactly what I wanted. The Band 8 sells offcially for have the price of the watch fit 2 which is unbeatable.
Compared to that the mi bands are disappointing. Even the newest one shows no substantial improvment to its predecessor. The 7 can't even track a simple crosstrainer session correctly, so I am done with xiaomi and wrist bands and particularly the mi fitness app.
Thanks, an informing comment.
So is it good for sleep tracking? Why in the video it shows to be one of the worst?
@@TheMaximer16 Not good for sleep stage tracking. But it detects beginning and end of sleep quite well and I was primarily interested in what my heart does at night.
@@yodanvranx809 I think that's enough but one thing, how tracking your heart at night mean anything? what's the propuse of that?
You mean the xiaomi mi band not perfect as this huawei band 8? İm between these now if you can help
Aye that's my comment on the video!😂😂 as a fellow nerd, THANK YOUUUU FOR THE REVIEW ROB!! I'm so happy that I purchased it around $30 price! I hope Huawei updates the sleep tracker algorithm in the future or something, and I hope you review it again in a year or so :))
Thank you for reviewing band 8 . I already bought this before your review and this is better than the many expensive watches. ❤
I love how these reviews differ from other ones. You can clearly see he is clearly involved in the testing process (he is a PhD in Bio testing)
great video as always!! thank you !! does band 8 comes with a spo2 sensor?
Thank you very much for your detailed review! It's very interesting to see a detailed review on Huawei watch 4 pro
Wooh! I was looking yesterday on the channel if this review had already been released
i have been waiting for this😊
Hi, there, Rob.
Great videos from you!
I've been watching lots of it this week.
How about to test this one on the other side of your wrist?
Does it make any difference?
And Is it better if we put it a few centimeters above the arm, far from the wrist?
And is it good for swimming practice?
Thanks
Regards from Rio
I've been waiting for this video, bcos I'm really want to bought this watch. Thank you for your review 👍🏻
Have been using this Huawei Band 8 for almost two months now. I don't really mind about the sleep tracking because I use it for running and monitoring my heart rate. Really like the quick reply function and it works well with my Samsung S22+. Always on display watch faces are quite nice too. For the price I paid, I think this band is awesome 😁
As for running,does the measurement accurate? because im thinking to get one just to track the distance of my daily run.thanks in advance
@@banduan1590 sadly I can't answer that because I run using a treadmill so I'm not sure about the accuracy of the distance 😅
Does it sync with Strava?
@@Miguel-bd1hp I don't use Strava so I'm not sure about that
@@Miguel-bd1hpthere is an option to sync with strava, komoot and Adidas running
Love your videos: Suggested Topic- Watch bands. Does a different band make any difference in accuracy? (Many fitness bands come with silicone bands people swap out). Other suggestions: Your heart rate accuracy graphs can hide data because the opaque black clusters of dots near the reference line hide how many samples are in that area. It'd be nice if you did a 3d plot so the height of the cluster indicated how many samples were at a given value. Otherwise, the graph tends to over emphasize relatively few off reference measurements. Also, on your Awake/Deep/REM/Light sleep grid: If a device tends to categorize everything in one category (e.g. Venu 2 tends to lump REM as light), then the accuracy of Light sleep is misrepresented. Since (exaggerated example) a watch that said you are ALWAYS in light sleep would perfectly match the reference light sleep measure. It would show the device extremely accurate on light sleep when it actually is 100% undependable. Stopped watch is right 2x a day. That doesn't mean it's accurate if you only measure at those times. Thanks again for your wonderful and unique videos.
One week using the Huawei band 8 , very happy , reliable sensors and working perfect on iPhone
Rob, what's the difference between these two samples? Are they for different markets or is it a matter of chance?
crazy insights in your review, much appreciated
Eagerly waiting for your review of the Galaxy watch 6 and the Huawei Watch 4 series. Thanks for all that you do!
Data never lies. Thank you for doing these videos.
Great video Rob, thanks 😊
Thanks a lot for your reviews. They are really very useful and interesting.
I always wonder how you are able to get data to analyze from Huawei?
Was waiting on this review - thanks. I presume the Sp02 measurement hasn't changed from the Band 7?
Ah I'm looking forward to the same video for Huawei band 9 !!
thank you Mr. Rob, really appreciate it for your review
aiks, wish I've seen this before buying my band 8, i bought it to track my sleep. But oh well, still grateful that I've found this video sooner and later, seems like i cant cheap out too much if I'm serious about tracking and improving my sleep haha. thanks so much for the super helpful review !
Great! Thank you. By the way, when will Huawei Watch Fit 3 be released? :/
hi! thank you for the video, I decided to get the band 8 after watching your GW6 video, saves me money 😂👌.
I also wanted to share my experience with the band 8, I used Galaxy Watch Active 1 since 2019, last year the screen pops out and i glued it again, my main issue with the watch after 4 years of use mainly is the heart rate tracking, some days it detects my RHR fine, but some days it won't even detects RHR at all. GW6 was my main choice, but after your review, I decided to better save money and get a cheap one instead.
So far with the band, the good:
- battery life, it felt so good not to charge the watch once every 2-3 days
- heart rate detection is decent and fast
- it's light and doesn't protrude that much from your wrist
- step count is decent, it quickly detects when i walk (the GWA has some delays registering the steps, I don't know if this is an aging device issue or is it because i'm not using a samsung phones)
- has SPO2 tracking
Now, the not so good, as I come from the galaxy watch active:
- screen aren't so bright for sunny outdoor (at least for me)
- for some reason i cannot find the option to automatically pause walk / running when stationary (the GWA has this)
- exercise options are limited, in GWA you can chose bench press exercise, I can only find strength in the band 8. It also detects less calories when weightlifting compared to the GWA.
Another, the nitpicks:
- vibration feels cheap, it gets annoying when you set any chat notifications and the chat is active (it's a different price point than the GWA though, so it's kinda okay, minor annoyances)
- there's so many permissions for the app, so if you're conscious with privacy, maybe try other devices?
- it takes time o adjust to the huawei health app, while it's better than installing the samsung health and galaxy wearable, the experience is totally cluttered, experience wise, S Health feels better to navigate (this might be my bias too as I've used the S Health for 4 years now)
- the not so robust exercise options
While i can't say much about the accuracy, i'd say for the price, you get a really decent heart rate tracker!
wow this realy suprised me how good the huawai band 8 is. 100% will buy it
Hey, your indepth analysis is amazing. Any chance you will be reviewing the Huawei Band 9 soon. I can't decide whether to get the fit 2 or band 9 as the algorithms are newer on the band 9 but the form factor is nicer on the fit 2.
As always great review. Danke!
@TheQuantifiedScientist did you ever retest the HuwaeiBand7 after the major firmware update? I think your measurements are all based on the older firmware.
Thank you very much for your dedication and hard work ❤ I decided to buy Huawei Band 8 after watching this cuz I know this is I'm looking for!
One of the most detailed review ! Amazing
Good review. What will be the best budget device for sleep tracking?
Thanks for these great reviews!
Any chance to test the Casio smartwatches?
Thanks!
Thank you for reviewing band 8！ Waiting your review on HUAWEI watch 4😜
Awesome review as usual 😮 thanks a lot
I bought the gt runner because of your review and I am extremely happy with it so thank you. I had mixed experiences with Huawei watches, but their software sopport is pretty solid and the health app useful.
Same here. I came from 2 Garmins, and they are good all-round watches, but so boring and crap watch faces. Huawei’s screens and watch faces totally rock, and their battery life is unparalleled, I’m getting 10 days on average. Heart rate tracking is what I need, and the GT Runner certainly doesn’t disappoint. Sleep tracking is however quite disappointing, though sleep tracking in general, irrespective of watch brand, is not as useful for me as a watches’ fitness tracking capabilities. I am waiting for the GT4 to drop as a worthy replacement for my GT Runner.
@@000T00bI have a question, why would I want to track my hearth beat frequency?
So glad its not better than fit2 as I bought it couple days before this released, thanks for review, top notch as always 👍
Hope you could do a review of the Huawei Watch Ultimate. I really enjoy watching your informative videos. More power!
Already waiting for the Galaxy watch 6 sleep review! Rob is the Best
Finally, the Band 8 review, and 3.5 stars make me confident to not buy other sports tracker to change my band 8. Cheers my dude :D
Даже и не подозревал что существует видео на тему подробного сравнения измерения показателей с профессиональным оборудованием. Отличное видео!
Thanks for reviewing Huawei band 8. I requested it as well
Thanks for the great analysis. Would love to see a review of the Soundcore Liberty 4 earbuds. I know its a bit different but would be interesting to see your opinion.
Hi Rob. How do you get all the datapoints. Are they exportable from all these devices.
Do you have any insights on accuracy when it comes to the fossil hybrid watches? I was interested in one of those and did not know how good the sleep tracking was
Thank you for your work!!!
Thanks a lot for this
Thanks for the review
Hey, would this be a good watch to use primarily for running? Using it for heart rate and steps mainly.
great review. I wonder if the steps tracking is accurate, have you tested that yet?
nice details test, i would like to see Amazfit Bip 3 test is it accurate enough for daily use?
Another great review. Looks like a good Budget Smart Watch with a decent Heart Rate Monitoring...Keep up the good work. Greetings from Ireland
Hello, how did you connect the bracelet to the laptop to generate the heartbeat graph? Please tell me, i really need this information for a project!🙏
The huawei band 9 is out now and I noticed that in every review video they keep commenting that they're waiting for your channel to review it. I bought the band 8 because of this awesome video and now we wait for your guidance once again 🙏
Hi! I would love to , but Huawei doesn’t sell it in Europe yet, and they won’t ship me a sample…
great video as usual. when can i expect xiaomi mi watch s1 active video?
What I'm interested in is if it can record HR during swimming. Not a lot of the trackers do and even less do a good job at it.
DO YOU RECOMMEND A BAND WATCH OR A GPS BIKE COMPUTER WITHOUT ITS SPEED AND CADENCE?
GREAT QUANTIFICATION STUDIES AND COMPARISONS
Thanks I have the 6 and Im very happy with it.
Hello rob, there are a lot of gadgets to come in a short time I think but others already released...are you gonna review the ticwatch pro 5 and the huawei watch 4 pro? This last looks impresive because of the sensors and the battery life
Es increíble, esperaba este video para decidirme por la Huawei Band 8 y no por el Xiaomi mi band 8.
igual sigue ganando el fitband charger 5
@@stopPlannedObsolescence No, es bastante mala la fitbit realmente. Tiene una subscripción en el medio, un sensor malo y lo único bueno que posee es un mejor analisis del sueño que dudo que te sirva para algo realmente
Hoy me compré el Band 8, y justo acabo de ver que salió el review aqui 😂
Got my band 8, love it
Thank you, I am getting a starting band for my girlfriend (not sure if she will like using it or not), she is a bit hypochondriac, so I've opted out several obvious options based on the results of the test. Ended up choosing this one.
Interestingly, a new Huawei Watch fit just came out! Watch fit Special Edition. You can only order it in Germany and Brazil for some reason. But it seems to have improved tracking, screen and programs. Maybe something you can test?
Are these watches made from Watch 2 version?
Thank you for reviewing 🤓
Deciding which smart watch to buy...love these videos! I am basically watching almost all of them 😂.
I had a Xiaomi band 7 but it gabe me problems with the heart tracking and kcal counting, so I here looking for a better still cheap alternative. Provably I gonna buy this one!
so? any updates?
Thank you very much for the video! I have wondered about the results, the quality of my sleep improved after I changed the Honor Band 5 bracelet to that Huawei Band 8. But the clock display is good. Do you also have research on how well the stress diagram expressed by Huawei Health is correct?
The best review as always
Hey Rob, thanks for all the hard work, could you please review galaxy watch 5 pro since it has been a year and see if it has any improvement just like galaxy watch 4 in 2022?
Awesome review, thanks
Do a coros pace 2 scientific review! Love your videos, one of the best channels in TH-cam.
Your (fantastic) work has been critical in saving my wallet & my health.
Until a budget wearable that tracks sleep-stages accurately is produced, I will not be wasting any more money.
I am really impressed with the statistical visualization, and wonder how you managed to export the data from the devices? Not satisfied with previous purchases, I attempted to do the same, but no pre-made libraries or APIs existed.
Am I correct in assuming you developed a 3rd party data-communication solution?
It could be Fitbit Inspire 2. It measures sleep well and costs about 58 dollars including fitbit premium for 1 year in the price.
@@michaljahodka3479 But per his tests really poor at heart rate measurement
@@michaljahodka3479 which is better for sleep up to 50 usd?
Hello rob thanks for reviewing! Great video as always.
How about step counter consistency ? My first unit was defect as step counting was doubled (almost tripled) versus other smartwatches.
My second unit was better but still have huge different when i use for walking through the stair. It seems consistenlty counting triple steps (when walking on slope or normal walking it still have around 10% difference step counting in the end of the day)
Have you test step counter in band 8 ?
*Sorry for my poor english*
Does he do no more step counter test?
One thing where I found HR tracking fail, was during a prolonged cardio session where my arms would be fully in water. The Band 8 would stop tracking HR when there was any water between the device and forearm.
Wear a sweatband on the firearm to stop sweat running down.
