    Mine is only the Band 5, but it works sufficiently well that after checking my pulse history, the doctors have put me on the path to a potential pacemaker. Because my pulse drops below 50 several times a day (but never at the time of testing) I have been in danger of collapsing. Luckily the monitor has picked it up for me. My lowest has been 41 bpm.
    The thing that would really benefit these devices is a low pulse alarm. It will beep when you reach a high target, which is great when exercising, but not below a minimum, when you could keel over and die.

    Garmin watches have low pulse and high pulse alarms. Get your doctor to check thyroid gland as well.

    The watches are OK, and the monitoring works, but don't get your hopes up with trying to export your data using the Zepp app.
    The first upgrade you want to do with these watches is replace the strap for a nice stainless steel one. I got mine off ebay. Easier to clean, and looks so much better

    So I have the smartband 6, is there really any point to upgrade?

    The screen is nicer, but other than that, not really.

    I have the 6, great for linking to your phone for reading messages and letting you know if your phone is ringing, very handy for the office etc

    fantastic device way more comfy than the previous gens, can't even tell its on my wrist.

    let down by sync issues, mine just loses entire days of data which if you google is an issue many people have.

    Still wear it for notifications and alarm though.

    Perfect for notifications but the vibrations feel strong when in a quiet place. I know given time I can change those settings but my best one is the 7.

    Will this give call and message notifications from iPhone?
    Willlau99's avatar
    Yes

    got to vote hot because I've just ordered a black one, cheap as chips

    Seems like it's an average activity tracker with poor sleep tracking. Great for the price!

    Yep I stopped using mine as bone of the data it collected was of any use.. I wanted it to track sleep but it was so innacurate it just became pointless. I have a Fitbit now which is much better and obviously more expensive so you get what you pay for.

    Depending on needs wouldnt the Redmi Watch 3 be better?

    This dude tests smart watches/fitness bands and this apparently isn't great (edited)

    There’s a great app that works with this but I forgot what it’s called. It gives you heart rate monitoring every second
