Review Huawei Band 7

Health features that were originally only available on smartwatches are now starting to be found on smartbands. No doubt this device is very loved by various age groups of users. The compact form and the price is quite affordable, but comes with quite complete features, which is the reason why this device is very popular.

Seeing this trend, Huawei has re-launched its latest smartband series through the Huawei Band 7. As the successor to the Band 6 series, Huawei certainly offers new things in this new device.

Huawei Band 7 Design

Huawei Band 7 still uses the same design language as the Band 6 which was the previous series. The screen carries a 1.47-inch AMOLED panel with a resolution of 194 x 368 pixels.

Last year, this screen size did offer a much more spacious display, more information, as well as quite a variety of facewatch variations. However, there are now many smartbands that offer larger screen sizes. This is certainly quite interesting, why doesn’t Huawei offer an increase in screen size?

The answer to that question is that Huawei wants its smartband series to remain compact. This is answered from the thickness of the trimmed device, Yes, the Huawei Band 7 has a thickness of only 9.99 mm. Thinner than Huawei Band 6 which comes with a thickness of 10.99 mm.

The weight of Huawei’s latest smartband is also lighter, only 16 grams. Although only 2 grams lighter, this makes the Huawei Band 7 more comfortable when worn. Sometimes I even forget that I’m wearing a smartband on my wrist.

A multifunction button is still on the right side. Its functions are quite diverse, ranging from turning on the screen, returning to the homescreen, also starting / stopping exercise.

The strap on the Huawei Band 7 has many strap holes. It offers the flexibility of the user’s hand size. So this smartband can be used by both male and female users. The color variants of the Band 7 series are also quite diverse. In total there are 4 colors that you can choose, which consist of red, green, pink and black.

Huawei Band 7 Features

One of the advantages of using a device like a smartband is that you will get notifications that enter the smartphone on the smartband. This means that even though you are no longer holding a smartphone, you can still see or know the notifications that come into your smartphone. Starting from incoming calls, incoming messages, email, popular social media applications, to Steam and Discord.

Just like other devices, to be able to get these notifications, you need a Bluetooth connection and supporting applications. For Huawei, you can download the Huawei Health application via the following link Huawei Health.

Once connected, you can manage a lot of things. Starting from the facewatch display, profile, health monitoring features, notifications, weather forecasts, alarms, sports history, and much more

If you like to exercise while listening to music, Huawei Health also provides control over the music being played either through applications that provide music playback services such as Spotify and YouTube. So, if you want to skip a song or play it many times or adjust the volume, you don’t need to go through a smartphone anymore. You can stay focused on exercising.

For smartband size, Huawei Band 7 is quite complete. Moreover, this device is priced less than Rp. 1 million. Its feature support includes health monitoring consisting of activity monitoring (HUAWEI TruSport™), heart health and blood oxygen levels (HUAWEI TruSeen™ 4.0), sleep quality (HUAWEI TruSleep™ 2.0), and stress levels (HUAWEI TruRelax™).

For a smartband class, Huawei brings health monitoring features that are practically complete. Users will get a monitoring feature as previously mentioned. With these features, users can get an idea of ​​what their body’s health is like or whether the user sleeps enough every day. However, keep in mind again, that the Huawei Band 7 is not a medical device that can be used as a definite reference for your health condition.

In terms of fitness features, Huawei Band 7 supports many sports activities, ranging from light to vigorous exercise, indoors as well as outdoors. The available sports options include Outdoor run, Indoor run, Outdoor walk, Indoor walk, Indoor cycle, Pool swim, Jump rope, Elliptical, Rower, and others.

For those of you who don’t exercise too often, you can also just walk in the morning, but still monitor Huawei Band 7. Huawei Band 7 can still provide data related to how far you’ve walked, the route you’ve traveled, travel speed, travel time, and calories. that burned.

You can also share recordings of sports activities on social media to invite your colleagues to start exercising. You can use the Dynamic Tracking feature which will process your sports recordings into attractive animated videos. How interesting?

Frequent activity must be balanced with adequate rest. With Huawei Band 7 you can also see how well your sleep quality is with the Sleep Monitoring feature. This feature can actually monitor how long you sleep, whether you sleep at night or during the day.

The data will be displayed in the form of graphs and the percentage of sleep categories which include Night sleep, Deep sleep, Light sleep, REM sleep, Deep sleep continuity, Awake, and Breathing quality. From there you can find out whether your sleep is quite adequate or not.

Another feature that is quite interesting and available on the Huawei Band 7 is the stress level meter feature. Yes, a lot of activity and doing the same activity for a long time can be a trigger for stress. But don’t worry, you can measure it using Huawei’s smartband.

You can measure your stress level by running a test or just activate this feature automatically. This feature will periodically monitor your stress level. From the resulting score, you can see if your stress level is still in a reasonable stage or needs attention. If you are in the high category, it’s better to take time to calm your mind by doing fun things, or you can take advantage of the Breathing exercises feature to be more relaxed.

Despite claims that the Huawei Band 7 has a thinner design than the previous model, Huawei’s smartband is indeed comfortable to wear. Besides being 200 grams lighter, the strap band made of silicone rubber feels soft in the hand. You also don’t have to worry about constantly wearing this Huawei Band 7 even if it is exposed to water when bathing or performing ablution, because this smartband is water resistant to a depth of 5 ATM.

The reason why smartbands are increasingly loved is their compact form, but still full of features. Like this Huawei Band 7. Comes with a fairly compact size with a 1.47-inch AMOLED screen, Huawei’s latest wearable can be an option for users who don’t like large watches or wearables.

The features are quite complete, ranging from fitness monitors to features to monitor health such as heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, stress levels, as well as sleep quality. Features that were previously only available on premium equivalent wearables.

The availability of the Dynamic Tracking feature in workout mode can be a way to invite friends or family to start exercising regularly. You can share recordings of your activities into cool animated videos, complete with cute icons and add music to make it even more exciting.

You can also set up answer templates to reply to incoming messages by creating custom answers in the Quick Reply feature. With this feature, you can stay focused on continuing sports activities while answering incoming messages.

For battery life, using the settings I’ve tweaked, this Huawei smartband can last for 1 full week. Although different from Huawei’s claims, battery life for each user will vary greatly.

Several monitoring features that are continuously activated, screen brightness levels, brightly colored watchfaces, can be one of the factors that cause the battery to drain quickly.
