Huawei has introduced a new edition of its fitness band called
Honor Band 4. The new gadget comes with a Home button and a colored AMOLED
panel. It is aiming to dethrone the Mi Band 3 from the affordable fitness band
top position with its price tag of US$ 30.
The Honor Band 4 has a 0.95” AMOLED screen with 2.5D
curved glass on top of it. It has pedometer, sleep tracker, heart rate sensor
and is water- and dust-resistant up to 5 ATM. It has Huawei TruSleep 2.0
feature that monitors the complete sleep cycle, including REM, and then offers
personalized recommendations.
Another neat feature is TruSeen 2.0 that follows the
heart rate all the time during activities like running, walking, cycling. The
battery of the device is 100 mAh and Honor promises 14 days of usage time. The company also introduced
Running Edition of the Honor Band 4. It comes with POLED display, but unlike
the regular version, this one is monochrome. It has slightly smaller battery -
77 mAh, but offers improved data like running detection like cadence, step
length, ground contact and foot strike pattern.
The Honor Band 4 arrives in Black, Blue, and Pink
and costs CNY199, which is no more than US$ 29/€ 25. The Running Edition has Black,
Blue, Red, Yellow, Green, and Pink color option and is just CNY 99 or less than US$ 15/€ 13. Both devices will be on sale in China on September 20, and hopefully
will appear on the global scene as well.
