Huawei Band 6: was £44.99, now £34.99 at Currys

Should you buy the Huawei Band 6 for Christmas
The Huawei Band 6 is a very decent fitness tracker. It has a 1.47" AMOLED display which is bigger and more detailed than most fitness trackers you can buy today. Fitness trackers with AMOLED screens, such as the Fitbit Charge 5, sell for much more than £34.99.
But the Gand 6 is not just a pretty face. It has 96 workout modes so whatever workout you prefer, rest assured the Huawei Band 6 will be able to track it. It can also monitor Sp02 (blood oxygen) levels, heart rate, stress, menstrual cycle and even sleep. Nothing too revolutionary but for the price, we're not complaining.
Despite the large AMOLED screen, the Huawei Band 6 has an amazing battery life, which is somewhat of a Huawei speciality. Other smart wearables from the brand, such as the awesome Huawei Watch GT 3, is also famous for their crazy-long battery life.
Not just that but putting the Band 6 on charge for just five minutes will give you an extra 2 days of battery life. And thanks to the silicone band, it's comfy to wear and can be worn in the swimming pool or shower.
