It will be interesting to see a comparison of this Xiaomi Watch 2 vs the TicWatch Pro 5 in battery life etc as I'm considering the Tic watch PRIMARILY because of not needing to charge it every coupla days (my preference will to have always on display & all the health tracking features off). Basically, I want a good smart watch that'll take calls and provide message notifications. I DID consider the Huawei group of watches just because they can do that and the EXCELLENT battery life too... 🤔😏 😎🇬🇧
Mine should be coming today. I paid £134.99 through the app. Couldn't leave it at that price. Will see how it goes against my pixel watch and Galaxy watches
The difference is that even the old pixels and galaxys are updated to WearOS 4 and Xiaomi will probably never update to wearOS 4 if they released it now with and old OS They will abandon it and force you to buy a new model in 2025. thay is their strategy.
I have a question does your heart rate sensor first detect a heart rate of 100-120 and then give you the actual value? I had a Xiaomi watch 2 Pro LTE and I returned it for this reason. It didn't matter whether the measurement was smart or every 1 minute.
Will Alexa work with the watch 2, I know it's on the S3 and both these watches are in my budget, just can't decide which I prefer. Great videos though.
Some questions: - only work with android phone? Not iPhone? - if u use bluetooth earpods you can download Spotify list and go running without bringing your phone and have tracking your route? Thanks
Thanks a lot, I can only say that your reviews are brilliant as always. Actually I expected this video would be for Samsung fit 3. I am so excited to see your opinion in mi band 8 pro comparing it with the fit 3 and i am waiting to see your review of the oneplus watch 2 as well.
Hello, I bought mine second-hand (from Portugal) I am French, and it is impossible to connect to Mi Fitness it blocks at 12% of the process, do you know why? I tried everything, remove and put back the Bluetooth, reset the watch.. thanks
I got it on sale for around £100. It's my first smartwatch, and I'm happy about it except for the battery life, which can barely last a whole day. I upgraded from a fitness band whose battery could last for one weeks now I'm trying to get used to it.
£100 for your first smartwatch is a steal! Too bad about the battery life, but switch to power save mode and its basically becomes a premium looking fitness tracker, with longe battery
I'm using this watch since yesterday. It's battery life sucks now. I hope it'll improve over charge cycles. I have an issue with green sensor (heart rate) if i use custom watchfaces like Watchmaker or Facer, the sensor works continuously. I think watchfaces forced to get heart rate and it drains battery too much. So i block the permissions to sensor for the watchface apps but also i want to see the heart rate by pressing a button. Is there a watch face like that?
Could help in finding the best prayer time app in wear os and the other operating systems like HyperOS- if existing? Another feature which i seek is together walking like the monthly championships on Samsung Health, as this feature can inspire us to insist on having more steps, so what are the best watches regarding this feature?
I have a problem with the microphone with this watch, it works with whatsapp or vocal messages but when I am in a call they cannot hear me... Does someone have some suggestion please?
@@ChigzTech I think the problem is not due to the apps are not updated, while the xiaomi watch camera app just does not compatible with the Samsung phone camera app. Different manufacturer camera apps are not support each other.
Thanks for the review i ve been keep looking everywhere this review but my question is do you think its still the best or should i wait bit more for better watches or wear os5 btw i just need bt calls,gps and reply messages with emoji or keyboard and see the pics and maybe bit longer battery life at least 4-5 days thanks 😊 ☺️
@rolins3279 hi thanks for reply at least someone can see and reply, unfortunately because of region fate we dont have ticwatch here and one plus watch 2 also still didnt released yet here so i might choose galaxy watch 5 pro😅
The main difference is a different material (metal alloy) and a knob. Remember that 2 Pro can be both Bluetooth and LTE, while 2 is only Bluetooth. I've had 2 PRO LTE for a few days now, I don't use esim yet.
Thank you for the review. Weak battery life is one of the most disadvantages for me to swich from Xiaomi Band series actually
Which is better this one or Huawei GT 4?
Where can I purchase this watch for USA
Nice one Chigz...Great review as always 🙂
Much appreciated
Great vid Chigz. Think I'll get one! Out of curiosity what is your smart ring model?

My kinda people
Great Video...thanks
its hard to choice between galaxy 6 classic and xiaomi watch 2 🙂
I would choose the GW6 Classic for the design, rotating Bezel, slimmer, better software and similar battery life.
it's definitely galaxy watch if your budget match
Is it compatible with iphone by installing wear os app or xiaomi app?
Mine should be coming today. I paid £134.99 through the app. Couldn't leave it at that price. Will see how it goes against my pixel watch and Galaxy watches
That's a good price!
Where did you get it. What app?
I want to order it (and if possible avoid the customs tax)

Very detailed review! 😊🙏 Thanks!
Salam alaikoum what's the smartphone you're using in the video?
ESSE É O MELHOR SMART WATCH DE TODOS E EXCELENTE! PONTO FRAQUÍSSIMO = NÃO FUNCIONA COM IPHONE!!!! INACREDITÁVEL!!!!
Hello, I bought mine second-hand (from Portugal) I am French, and it is impossible to connect to Mi Fitness it blocks at 12% of the process, do you know why? I tried everything, remove and put back the Bluetooth, reset the watch..
thanks
Where did u buy this pls send the link
Can I drag and drop photos from my phone to this watch? Does the watch have a gallery?
does this have 4g?
Whats the best watch for the price and features? And snappyness
Obv it'd mi watch 2
Hi great video, does this watch pair with iPhones?
no, because its on wear os. It only can be paired with any android phones
Xiaomi wear os watch 2 pro esim LTE version under 179,99£ atm, don't think samsung can beat this price

Hehe got it for 70£ ❤❤
@@rawstick4307 Wow, those are very good prices. Are you happy with it? 🥰
Hi, can you reverse charge Xiaomi Watch 2 through Samsung smartphone?
how much AOD screen it has?
Can it pair with ant+ sensor tho?
does this work with Redmagic 9 ?
Hi is this have drink water reminder?
is it support eSIM
Does xiaomi have a watch that has blood pressure monitoring?
Unfortunately not.
@ChigzTech ,what is name on watch face at the beginning of the video ? I have Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro and I don't have this one watch face.
That's a really good product. Great detailed review too
Yes it's pretty good. Thanks 👍

Amazfit with zepp os,my friend develop prayer time for zepp market
I have a problem with the microphone with this watch, it works with whatsapp or vocal messages but when I am in a call they cannot hear me... Does someone have some suggestion please?
@@rob705 I think you need to use earphones for calls
I am using Iphone 13, do you think it's better to get this than Apple Watch SE?
If you have iPhone it's better to get an Apple watch. They work better together as an ecosystem.
So this does work with the iPhone but limited?
@@thefoss721 no. Smartwatches like this have Wear OS, which only supports Android, like watchOS only supporting Apple devices.
I got only 1.5 day battery life..how to improve..AOD off already
Hoping the OnePlus Watch 2 is good.... ordered it on pre-order £50 off and free buds 3
Same. I’m hoping it’s not too thick and heavy. Other than that it look pretty solid smartwatch.
Can the sleepmonitoring detect naps? This is often overlooked by many manufacturers, including Apple.
Yes, any sleep under 2 hours gets recorded as a nap.
@@ChigzTech Thanks
Yes, it can. I take a nap on the chair every daytime, and it can accurately detect it.
Can you extract all watch faces so that we can install on others
No battery saving mode to increase battery life?
There is.
Hello, Please, can we save music on the watch, play and ear with bluethooth earbuds?
Nay. 😂
Yes
Great video! Can you pair it with an iPhone?
Nope
i pair the watch 2 with a samsung phone, the pre-installed camera app does not work with the samsung phone. Any idea how to resolve it
Makes sure both phone and watch are on the latest firmware. If problem persists than would contact Xiaomi Customer services.
@@ChigzTech I think the problem is not due to the apps are not updated, while the xiaomi watch camera app just does not compatible with the Samsung phone camera app. Different manufacturer camera apps are not support each other.
4:20 Yes, please make the comparison video!
Is the date format dd/mm/yy ?
Depends on where you live.
I didn't see no one test the water resistant beyond a commercial
Would you make a short to test its water resistances pls?
I have been in the shower a few times, even though you should not do that.
Thanks for the review i ve been keep looking everywhere this review but my question is do you think its still the best or should i wait bit more for better watches or wear os5 btw i just need bt calls,gps and reply messages with emoji or keyboard and see the pics and maybe bit longer battery life at least 4-5 days thanks 😊 ☺️
Ticwatch Pro 5, Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, OnePlus Watch 2
@rolins3279 hi thanks for reply at least someone can see and reply, unfortunately because of region fate we dont have ticwatch here and one plus watch 2 also still didnt released yet here so i might choose galaxy watch 5 pro😅
Anyone know the stepcount in mi fitness will only record from watch or it will combine from watch and phone?
is it possible to swipe type on the keyboard?
Yes. He does it (by accident) at 13:26
Great review mate.
Does this watch have fall detection???? I thought is was supposed to??
@@kanngoble4756 Nop
Is it possible to install Messenger?
yep you can but i think in this watch haven't esim card but the xamoi watch 2 pro have esim card
Is the Xiaomi Watch 2 PRO even worth it now? seems like almost the same product for quite cheaper
wondering the same
xiaomi watch 2 pro have a 1 new sensor, Bioelectrical impedance analysis sensor.
I don't know why u didn't review the Xiaomi watch 2 pro
If only it was available in America.
Need review for Xiaomi watch S3
what's the difference between xiaomi watch 2 and xiaomi watch 2 pro
The main difference is a different material (metal alloy) and a knob. Remember that 2 Pro can be both Bluetooth and LTE, while 2 is only Bluetooth. I've had 2 PRO LTE for a few days now, I don't use esim yet.
the most is Bioelectrical impedance analysis sensor in Pro.
@@lavine6069An extra feature that you will use several times :)
THIS IS THE BEST SMART WATCH OF ALL AND EXCELLENT! WEAK POINT = DOESN’T WORK WITH IPHONE!!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
Other weak points which make the watch actually weak:
- Gorilla glass not confirmed
- No MIL-STD durability.
I bought it right after release, it is perfect, but it is really hard to find accessories for it - screen protection and case
Same here. But for Xiaomi s3 watch so many accessories. But this one, i found only straps. I cant find screen protector
why you need a case for watch?
No wireless charge, no buy.
I can't carry second charger for a watch.
I was put off this watch because of the massive bezel
wait for the oneplus watch 2....its way better and not that much more.
It's yuuuuge tho 👀
it literally costs twice more 💀
RRP £299
It's way better? Because?
@@hermanstokbrood 40% better battery life, latest Google WearOS 4. That is enough to say it is way better.
Poor fuckin battery 😮
Can I make Whatsapp call ?
😁😁😁👍👍👍....
Thanks bro 👍
👍🏼👍🏼🤠
--Caltextech
Galaxy watch 5 pro its still the better watch ❤
Yes I have to agree.
Lmao not even damn trash only compatible with Sam shit phones 🤣🤦💯💯 OnePlus watch 2 better
Cannot agree I had it and returned it as I had everyday day little lags and stuttering here and there
@TheInchii with the new software updates, no lag
You're comparing a 300 or 400 dollar watch with a 150 dollar watch. Real smart
WearOS 3.5? Must be a joke.
Maybe you could expand on your statement? I hope that Xiaomi will come to its senses and release OS version 4.
What's the difference between 3.5 and 4.0,?
Way too big for most pepole and the design is not that inspiring either.
The only concern on this watch, will it get wear os 4?
Sick man not my thing but still cool 💯 if fancy selling the regular Poco x6 for a good 🎟️ let me know brother 🏆🏆💚👊
