If you\u2019re looking at investing in a fitness tracker or smartwatch, but are still not sure about making the investment, then Huawei\u2019s latest offering may just be what you\u2019ve been waiting for. The new Huawei Band 6 offers health enthusiasts an affordable way to dip their toe into the fitness tracker world without compromising on features or reliability.<\/p>\n<p>Packed with tracking features, including a built-in heart-rate monitor, the Band 6 comes in at under R2,000, making it one of the most affordable options for a top tier smart wearable. With its chic design, this latest iteration of Huawei\u2019s popular Band <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/categories\/13242\/Activity+Trackers?utm_source=blog.pricecheck.co.za&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=blog_Huawei_Band_6_Review_Stay_on_Track_with_this_New_Activity_Tracker&amp;utm_content=Huawei_Band_6_Review_Stay_on_Track_with_this_New_Activity_Tracker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">activity tracker<\/a> boasts a 1.47-inch AMOLED FullView Display Screen (offering a 148% larger viewable area than previous models), with a low-bezel 64% screen-to-body ratio.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-32033 aligncenter\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Band6_colours-300x163.jpeg\" alt=\"Huawei Band 6 Review\" width=\"701\" height=\"381\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Band6_colours-300x163.jpeg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Band6_colours-768x417.jpeg 768w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Band6_colours.jpeg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 701px) 100vw, 701px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Band 6 offers amazing battery life and promises 14 days\u2019 battery life for typical use. I managed to get a full 2 weeks of use on a single charge. I wore my Band 6 every day and used it to track daily 45-minute workouts, and it endured like a champion. Huawei says you will get 10 days of battery for heavy use. Even better, if you do forget to charge your watch and need it to track a workout, you\u2019ll get two days\u2019 battery use from just five minutes of charging time with the Band 6\u2019s magnetic charger.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most useful features I found with the Band 6 is its wide selection of workout types to choose from. It supports a whopping 96 sports modes, including everyday sports such as running, walking, cycling and swimming, as well as the elliptical and rowing machine. There\u2019s also a rope jumping mode that monitors the number of jumps you take and provides accurate exercise data such as consecutive jumps. I have mostly used it for things like HIIT training, running, yoga, as well as functional and strength training, and it tracked those brilliantly.<\/p>\n<p>As far as heart-rate tracking goes, the Band 6 is quite impressive. I compared the Band 6\u2019s real-time HR tracking to my chest-strap heart rate monitor, and it has been pretty accurate throughout my workouts.\u00a0I also enjoyed comparing the stats after my workouts and on most occasions, the average heart rate tracked by the Band 6 was spot on with my chest strap monitoring devices.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-32035 aligncenter\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Band6_3-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Huawei Band 6 Review\" width=\"705\" height=\"397\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Band6_3-300x169.jpg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Band6_3-768x432.jpg 768w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Band6_3.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 705px) 100vw, 705px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Also read:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/blog\/buying-an-activity-tracker-in-sa-everything-you-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buying an Activity Tracker in SA: Everything You Need to Know<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The activity tracker also offers a bunch of other tracking tools that you&#8217;re sure to find super valuable.

While you snooze, the watch tracks your stage of sleep, real-time heart rate and breathing rate, and produces a comprehensive analysis of your sleep quality from this data.\u00a0Huawei TruSleep 2.0 offers users more than 100 kinds of personalised advice for sleep quality improvement. It provides eight sleeping metrics, including sleep duration, deep sleep ratio, wake up counter, breathing quality and sleep recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>All the metrics measured from your workouts and daily life can be easily tracked and synced with the Huawei Health app, which offers an easy way to keep track of your health through easy-to-read graphs and summaries.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-32037 aligncenter\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Huawei-Band6-header-300x169.jpeg\" alt=\"Huawei Band 6 \" width=\"705\" height=\"397\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Huawei-Band6-header-300x169.jpeg 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Huawei-Band6-header-768x432.jpeg 768w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Huawei-Band6-header.jpeg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 705px) 100vw, 705px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But, the Band 6 isn\u2019t just a health and fitness tracker, it also offers a convenient way to interface with your phone. You can use the watch to view incoming calls and messages, get weather updates, control your music, and even take photos through your phone\u2019s camera.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a fairly affordable activity tracker with accurate tracking and a comfortable fit, then the Huawei Band 6 won\u2019t disappoint. The watch offers more than enough metrics to get stats lovers busy for hours and is a great little gadget to have on your wrist to help remind you to be conscious of your healthy lifestyle goals.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Huawei Band 6 is now available in South Africa in 6 different colours.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Find the best prices on activity trackers and smartwatches online with PriceCheck now:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/categories\/13242\/Activity+Trackers?utm_source=blog.pricecheck.co.za&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=blog_Huawei_Band_6_Review_Stay_on_Track_with_this_New_Activity_Tracker&amp;utm_content=Huawei_Band_6_Review_Stay_on_Track_with_this_New_Activity_Tracker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21641 size-medium\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Buttons_ViewOffers-300x57.png\" alt=\"view offers\" width=\"300\" height=\"57\" srcset=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Buttons_ViewOffers-300x57.png 300w, \/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Buttons_ViewOffers.png 550w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Huawei newest activity tracker is here.
