Then it was better to go for honor band 5.
It has accurate step tracking , sleep tracker , heart rate monitor and blood oxygen monitor.
It also have music control and customisation facility.
Only draw back is battery is less in honor band. Though 1 hour of charge will give you enough juice for your device .
Plus charging of mi device is little bit tough than honor band 5

Thanks for the suggestion but as I mentioned earlier this options are secondary for me. Music and third party app control is better in MI band 4 so this one would be meeting my requirements.

Also, Battery is more as compared to others. This is the reason I have bought M30s too as I go on frequent traveling.

Congrats. Great choice if you want 3rd party app integration. For better sleep tracking info just download "Sleep" app from Play store. For customization Mi Band 4 is way too good. Also, the battery life is not that good on Honor Band 5.

I am getting only a week's worth of battery life on full charge and that's after turning off Continuous Heart Rate monitor. I don't regret the purchase since i always preferred accuracy over customization. My sleep quality has improved a lot in the past couple of weeks.

Thanks bro.
Please let me know the useful third party apps to make best use of the band. If it's worthy I will also get paid apps!

In the firmware, the auto screen off settings was also the main change that the company brought to the Mi Band 4. Where users have control over the display timeout setting & they can choose between 5 to 10 seconds. The firmware version V1.0.6.24 has now rolled out in more countries that brings auto screen off timeout setting. The Indian users see it on their Mi Band 4 and slowly it will reach all users. In India, you will see the version 1.0.6.24 on the Mi Smart Band 4, while the global Band 4 will receive 1.0.7.04 firmware version.
