Honor Band 5: a £30 smart band on sale from today
Honor has introduced its newest wearable, a sub-£30 smart band the company hopes will improve people’s lives, both day and night.

With a 0.95-inch AMOLED touchscreen, 24-hour heart rate monitoring, numerous sport and fitness tracking modes, plus multiple customised watch faces, the Band 5 offers exceptional value for money.
Available from Amazon from today, and other retailers including O2 and Asda coming soon, the Band 5 is available in a choice of colours; Classic Navy blue, Meteorite Black and Dahlia Pink.
The 24-hour heart rate monitoring functionality is powered by Huawe’s TruSeen 3.0 technology, while AI tech keeps track of your sleep and identifies six common sleep disorders. A series of customised suggestions aim to improve sleep quality.
The Band 5 is water resistant to a depth of 50 metres making it usable when swimming, giving a clear view of your progress – as well as more traditional activities like walking, running or cycling.
Hardware wise, the Band 5 screen has a resolution of 120×240 pixels (282 pixels-per-inch) and a single charge is good for 14 days of normal usage.
Users can receive alerts for incoming calls, messages and other phone notifications. Additional features include taking a photo from both the front and rear camera of your phone at a touch of a button, or locating your phone using the ‘find phone’ function.

“Honor Band 5 provides the perfect mix of technology and style, meaning you can keep track of your day and night routines while still expressing your personality. By combining complete control of your notifications, a full suite of fitness tracking and better than ever sleep monitoring, Band 5 becomes the perfect accessory for any activity.”
