Buying tip
The Blueair at 10W costs roughly Rs 2.4 per day running 24 hours. The Honeywell at 55W costs roughly Rs 13.2 per day. Over a 5-month pollution season running 24/7, the Blueair saves Rs 1,620 in electricity. This does not offset the Rs 5,000 price premium, but if you plan to run it year-round for 3+ years, the math gets closer.

Quick answers
Only if silence or energy efficiency are your top priorities. The Blueair is 50% quieter (17 vs 35 dB minimum) and uses 82% less power (10W vs 55W). But the Honeywell offers medical-grade H13 HEPA and more coverage (42 vs 38 sq m) for Rs 5,000 less. For most buyers, the Honeywell is the smarter purchase.
The Blueair at 17 dB is virtually inaudible - most people cannot hear it at all. The Honeywell at 35 dB minimum is like a quiet room with a soft hum. For light sleepers who notice any noise, the Blueair is dramatically better. For normal sleepers, the Honeywell is acceptable.
The Honeywell's H13 HEPA captures 99.95% of 0.1 micron particles - medical grade. The Blueair's HEPASilent combines electrostatic charging with mechanical filtration for good efficiency at lower air resistance. For raw particle capture, the Honeywell's H13 is superior. For energy-efficient purification, the Blueair's technology is innovative.
