- Honor Band 10 has been released in China
- The design looks very similar to band 9
- We still do not know when it will be launched in other regions.
If you like the idea of the Fitbit Popularized Band -style fitness tracker format, but you want a cheaper model, we have good news for you: the Band of Honor 10 has appeared on the Chinese Website of Honor, which indicates that it could soon be sold in other countries.
An alternative to the best Fitbit, the Honor Band series frequently appears in our list of the best cheap fitness trackers (although Huawei and Xiaomi have usurped their position for now) as perfectly good functional exercise trackers with a large battery battery and misleading screens misleading.
The Band of Honor 10 has not reinvented the wheel, according to these initial listings: it retains the large 1.57 -inch screen and the design without buttons of its predecessor, the Band of Honor 9.
Like its predecessor, it is unlikely that it will be available in the US., But it is on sale in China from 229 yuan, the equivalent to £ 23.50 / au $ 49. It is likely that it is likely to be a bit more expensive in other regions, take into account the shipping costs, and a more premium version capable of NFC payments seems to be an option on the honor website.

NFC questions
However, honor watches struggle to use their NFC capabilities due to incompatibility with Google Wallet and Apple Pay, despite the fact that honor phones admit Google Wallet.
It remains to see if Honor Band 10 suffers the same destination, but it is very likely that the NFC version is practically unusable outside China, unless you use the patented digital wallet service of an honor phone.
However, wait for heart rate, steps, sleep monitoring, training monitoring, stress management, notification functionalities and more, all wrapped in a total attractive -looking package (and even more attractive).
You will not have some of the advanced features that we see in Fitbits and the best Garmin watches, but for a cheap and breakdown tracker, it looks great. Are attentive for a complete review when you reach the shelves outside of China.
