Honor released the Honor Band 6. After the powerful functions such as heart rate, sleep, exercise, and even blood oxygenation were updated generation after generation, it officially took the first step towards breaking the original form.

A 1.47-inch screen has increased the display area by as much as 148%, bringing a wider field of view, a more integrated appearance, and smoother touch interaction. With the new screen, although Honor Band 6 is a wristband, it is already very similar in form to a smartwatch. It can be said that from now on, the boundary between the smartwatch and the smartband will no longer be so obvious.

In terms of function, Honor Band 6 is still very powerful. In terms of sports, it has 10 professional sports support and automatic recognition. In terms of health, it has 24-hour smart heart rate detection + active reminder of abnormal heart rate, blood oxygen detection, and sleep monitoring. To help out, there are even professional heart health research, and intimate women’s health management functions, which can meet the various needs of users.

In terms of convenient functions, the Honor Band 6 supports common small functions such as message notification, mobile payment, alarm clock, and voice recognition. The NFC version also has very convenient and easy-to-use traffic card and access card simulation functions, eliminating the trouble of carrying a card with you, and you can take care of it with just a bracelet.

The Honor Band 6 we received comes in two versions, seagull gray and meteorite. This time, I will use seagull gray to show the details of its appearance.

Open the package and take out the Honor Band 6. In the screen state, a whole 2.5D curved screen is more integrated than the traditional glass outer screen of the bracelet, and the increase in size is even more obvious.

Light up the screen, although the size has increased by 148%, the fineness does not seem to drop at all. Don’t worry about those beautifully patterned dials not showing the best results.

The dial styles in the dial market are also very rich. At the same time, there will be new dials on the shelves. The huge dial library can basically meet your needs for various styles.

In terms of control, in addition to the traditional touch-screen control, Honor Band 6 only has a physical button on the right side to complete operations such as calling out the menu. on the other side is the lettering of HONOR, which plays a decorative role.

On the bottom surface, two metal contacts are used to connect the magnetic charging line. In the center is a biosensor, which can detect blood oxygen, heart rate, and sleep. Judging from the buckles on both sides of the strap, it is not impossible to remove and install the new strap.

By default, the strap itself is made of soft silicone material, which is very comfortable to wear and will not be squeezed. In addition to the bracelet, a magnetic charging cable is included in the package.

Sports & Health

In terms of health, Honor Band 6 continues to maintain its excellent standard. It supports 24-hour heart rate monitoring, stress testing, blood oxygen testing, etc., and even a new feature of female health management has been added.

1. Heart rate monitoring

Honor Band 6 supports smart 24-hour heart rate monitoring, which can record the user’s heart rate changes in a day. Set the early warning value for low or high heart rate in advance, and send out an early warning when the conditions are met, reminding users to take action in time.

2. Heart health research

Download the Heart Rate Health Research APP, and you can use the high-performance sensors of Honor Band 6 to finely identify problems such as arrhythmia and sleep apnea. This generation has also added a new atrial fibrillation risk prediction study, which can predict the risk of atrial fibrillation in advance.

3. Sleep monitoring

The Honor Band 6 supports sleep monitoring and is excellent in the fineness of monitoring. It supports the recognition of the three sleep stages of light sleep, deep sleep, and rapid eye movement, which is very convenient for users to understand how their sleep status is during the night. Even the sporadic naps during the day can be recorded, and refined suggestions are provided to help users have a healthy schedule and high-quality sleep.

4. Blood oxygen test

The blood oxygen test of Honor Band 6 is so far, but it needs a single manual operation, and the result of each test will be synchronized to the APP. Blood oxygen saturation is one of the important vital signs. When the blood oxygen level is low, it is very easy to cause symptoms such as fatigue and lack of energy. Staying in this state for a long time may even cause serious damage to the body. With the Honor Band 6, users can discover the low blood oxygen saturation in time, take a break in time, or take corresponding treatment.

Women’s health management

Honor Band 6 supports women’s health management functions, and can automatically generate periodic reminders by entering time information, which is very helpful for women’s daily life.

In addition to the 5 types detailed above, Honor Band 6 also supports pressure monitoring and breathing training functions. It can help users understand their own recent stress situation and adjust their physical and mental relief by adjusting their breathing. They are all extremely convenient and easy-to-use functions of Honor Band 6 in terms of health.

Exercise assistance

The Honor Band 6 supports 10 professional sports modes, which can ensure accurate follow-up measurements in each of the above modes, and get the most valuable sports data as a reference.

Simply use the outdoor walking mode to experience the actual performance of Honor Band 6 in sports assistance. Select the corresponding item in the exercise menu to enter the recording mode, and for some sports that require GPS to record the path, you need to wait for the GPS positioning to succeed in the preparation interface.

After the exercise is over, all information will be synchronized to the APP, and the exercise track, heart rate change, pace change, etc. will be given in detail in the form of a chart. What is very interesting is a dynamic trajectory function, which can combine time and map to display the dynamic completion process of the entire path, whether there is a stay during the movement, and how long it stays, it can be accurately reproduced.

In addition, sports also supports automatic recognition of exercise status. Like walking, running, elliptical machine, and rowing machine, you can record the exercise process without specifically turning on the exercise mode.

Functional experience

With the blessing of a large screen, many of our common shortcut functions on Honor Band 6 have a different experience from previous bracelets, such as the simplest message notification function, because the screen is larger and displays more content. Legibility has improved a lot.

The voice control function can further enhance the convenience of the Honor Band 6. Operations such as setting an alarm clock and turning on exercise originally required multiple steps to achieve, but now they can be completed with a single password. However, it should be noted that this function needs to be used with Huawei phones with EMUI 10.1 or higher.

With a larger screen, the standard scan code payment function of the bracelet will also be easier to use. There is no other reason. A larger screen can better display the QR code, which is naturally easier for scanning equipment.

The Honor Band 6 NFC version supports traffic card simulation and access card simulation functions. In terms of traffic card simulation, Honor Band 6 is quite large in terms of card types and discounts. An almost universal transportation card, such as the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Interconnection Card, is free to open and supports cloud transfers in the future. Not only is it easy to get started, but the old card and balance will not be wasted when replacing new devices in the future.

The function of the access control card is the same as before, and it supports two modes: a simulated access control card and a simulated blank card. Blank cards are mainly used for encrypted access control cards, and you need to go to the property to use special equipment to write.

In terms of battery life, turn on all-day smart heart rate detection, all-day stress detection, exercise for 1 hour, and frequently raise the wrist to brighten the screen to check messages in heavy usage scenarios. After 13 hours and 5 minutes, the battery will drop by 10%. A conservative estimate In about 6 days.

Taking into account the official heavy battery life scenario, the weekly exercise is only 60 minutes, so the battery life calculated by daily exercise is still quite good.
