Video Description

After 6 years of being faithful to Whoop, I got to admit this Helio is way better than expected. Four months ago I started testing the new Amazfit Helio band and I have been throughly impressed. This $99 strap claims to track everything the Whoop 5.0 does without the monthly subscription. Sounds too good to be true, but is it? In this video I dive deep into what I love and hate about the Helio Strap. I am also giving a Helio Strap away to one of you!
