The verdict
The Honeywell Air Touch V5 lists an H13 HEPA filter, a 380 m³/h CADR for rooms up to 589 sq ft, Wi-Fi app control and a 9,000-hour filter for about ₹11,500 on Flipkart. It was out of stock on Honeywell’s own store, the replacement filter price is unpublished, and owners report inaccurate AQI readings.
Best for
- Living rooms up to about 550 sq ft where airflow matters most
- Buyers who specifically want an H13-rated HEPA filter
Skip it if
- You want to know your filter replacement cost before buying
- You rely on the on-screen AQI to judge your air
What we like
- Four-stage filtration: pre-filter, nano-silver anti-bacterial layer, H13 HEPA and activated carbon
- 380 m³/h CADR and coverage up to 589 sq ft (55 m²), per Honeywell
- Wi-Fi app control, Alexa voice control, auto mode, sleep timer and child lock
- Honeywell rates filter life at up to 9,000 hours and gives a 2-year warranty
What we don’t
- Out of stock on Honeywell’s own store (₹10,199) when we checked; Flipkart had it at ₹11,499
- No replacement filter price published for the V5 on Honeywell’s store
- Honeywell describes both a “real-time PM2.5 level display” and red, yellow and green LED indicators
- Flipkart reviews are pooled with smaller Air Touch models; complaints include units failing within months and AQI readings that look wrong

In this review
How we researched this
We have not used this purifier. We read Honeywell’s India store page, the Flipkart listing and its owner reviews on 12 November 2026. We could confirm the filter stages, CADR, coverage, filter life, smart features and warranty. Honeywell does not publish the V5’s power draw, maximum noise, weight or replacement filter price on that page, and we have not measured airflow, noise or sensor accuracy.
Filtration and airflow
On paper this is the V5’s strength. Honeywell lists four stages: a pre-filter, a nano-silver anti-bacterial filter, an H13 HEPA filter and activated carbon. It claims removal of 99.99% of PM2.5, a CADR of 380 m³/h, and coverage of up to 589 sq ft (55 m²), with the air in that space refreshed every 12 minutes. That is more listed airflow than the Xiaomi 4 Lite’s 360 m³/h at a similar price.
Sensors and app
Honeywell’s feature list describes red, yellow and green LED indicators for air quality, while its FAQ describes a “real-time PM2.5 level display”. Its own product photo shows a numerical readout. Auto mode adjusts the fan to the sensor; manual speeds override it. The V5 connects over Wi-Fi to the Honeywell Air Touch app and supports Alexa. Honeywell quotes 22 dB(A) at low speed but no maximum.
Availability and running costs
When we checked, the V5 was sold out on Honeywell’s own store at ₹10,199 (MRP ₹22,999), which pointed buyers to Amazon instead. Flipkart had it at ₹11,499. Honeywell rates the filter at up to 9,000 hours and offers a 2-year warranty, but its store lists filters for other Air Touch models (₹929 and ₹2,299) and not a V5 filter price.
What owners report
Flipkart shows 4.2 stars from 2,311 ratings: 1,315 five-star and 217 one-star (about 9%). The review pool includes the smaller 152 m³/h and 250 m³/h Air Touch models, so it is not specific to the V5. Reviews tagged with the V5’s 380 m³/h rating complain of a unit showing an AQI of 6 in Delhi and of inaccurate AQI “even in open air” in Rohini. Others in the pool describe units that stopped working within months and could not be repaired.
Should you buy it?
If you can get it from a reliable seller and confirm the filter price, the V5’s H13 filter and 380 m³/h airflow make it a strong option for a living room on paper. The sensor complaints and patchy availability are real concerns. Our score is provisional until we test it.
