Third-party reviews

Based on 15,076 buyer reviews from online shops.
Reviews last updated: June 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Huawei Band 4

  • Built-in USB charging plug eliminates the need for separate cables or cradles
  • Lightweight and comfortable design (approx. 24g) suitable for long periods of use
  • Strong value for money as an affordable entry-level fitness tracker
  • Detailed health monitoring including heart rate and SpO2 tracking
  • Accurate sleep tracking with Huawei TruSleep 2.0 analyzing different sleep phases
  • Clear, responsive 0.96-inch color display that remains visible under sunlight
  • Water-resistant up to 50 meters, making it safe for swimming and showers

What we don't like about Huawei Band 4

  • Lack of integrated GPS (requires a connected smartphone for outdoor route tracking)
  • Significant limitations for iOS users, including fewer available watch faces
  • Notifications are basic and do not allow for full message reading or direct replies
  • No dedicated swim tracking mode despite the high water resistance rating
  • Battery life may be shorter than competitors when all advanced tracking features are active
  • Proprietary app (Huawei Health) can sometimes have registration or connectivity issues on non-Huawei devices

Verdict

The Huawei Band 4 is a lightweight fitness tracker featuring a 0.96-inch TFT color touchscreen (80 x 160 pixels) and a signature built-in USB-A plug for cable-free charging. Key characteristics include TruSeen 3.5 heart rate monitoring, TruSleep 2.0 for precise sleep analysis (including naps), SpO2 blood oxygen detection, and 5ATM water resistance. Main pros are its convenient 'plug and charge' design, highly accurate sleep tracking, and a reliable battery life of 7 to 9 days. However, it lacks integrated GPS (requiring a connected smartphone for route tracking), lacks a dedicated swimming workout mode despite its water resistance, and does not support music playback controls.
