    the biggest issue with xiaomi smart bands (since series 7) that they abandon these devices soon and don't really care about support. they deliver only 1-2 firmware updates after release and that's all. i thought it might be a good idea to swap my 8 pro to this but i just realized this money grabbing pattern. the band 7 pro still has a few bugs, 8 pro also. i guess they never intended to support these devices and the recent series got updates only because those are made by huami. huami cared a lot more.

      Delayed accuracy and software for chain benefits of money 😅 i also realized that since too much their new models entered markets just in a year..

      If there are no bugs - I am fine without updates.

      Good evening. Based on your comment sir, is it better if I choose galaxy watch fit 3 over this?

  • @BrianHartman

    I had the Mi Band 7, back in the day. The reason I abandoned the brand is because of the software.
    This might sound petty, but the fact that you can't choose your units in the Mi Fitness software bugs me. The Zepp app let you choose imperial or metric. Here in the US, we mostly use imperial. Now, converting mi to km, F to C, etc., isn't a super intense calculation, obviously, but it *is* a calculation. It's kind of annoying to me that i'm wearing a computer *on my wrist*, and it's not able to do that calculation for me. That's just lazy software development.
    If they don't want to make the changes to the Mi Fitness software, they should let you pair the watch with the Zepp app.

      I didn't know it is not possible, and this is indeed a big miss.

    In Pakistan, should I buy redmi watch 4 or wait for the release of watch 5? Are they going to release soon?

      Should be official in a few days time from what I hear.

    Apart from the larger screen are there any benefits of this over the mi band 9?

    • @TechMishka
      @TechMishka  Месяц назад

      The GPS. A very serious one.

    • @AndrewYouTubehandle
      @AndrewYouTubehandle Месяц назад +1

      @TechMishka thanks for the reply. I don't need GPS on my smartwatch/heath band. So, I'll probably stick with the mi band 9 for most uses and get something like the Oneplus 2r for the occasions when I need a more effective smart watch.

    Hello Mike
    I very read that you answer calls and speak. It is not correct?

    Do I buy band 9 or band 9 pro?

    • @TechMishka
      @TechMishka  7 дней назад +1

      The Pro has GPS. Which is quite an advantage

    • @NotTheRealMiniBloxia
      @NotTheRealMiniBloxia 7 дней назад

      @ I know that but the thing that I want to know is which one is more accurate

    I like some Xiaomi products....but not smartbands and smartwatch . The brand use this " Mac Donald's" and the people buy one at 14:00 and at 17:00 on the same day need buy another, why ? its because the energy ( juice) of the first mac is gone .
    And with this Business model its easy win money😊.

    What's different between watch 4 and active?

    • @Variablessings-guyMársmart
      @Variablessings-guyMársmart Месяц назад +2

      Well, there is no Redmi Watch 4 Active, so i will say some diferences compared to the Redmi Watch 5 Active.
      The Redmi Watch 5 Active doesn't have GNSS by itself and doesn't have AOD because it has a LCD display. Heart rate tracking and other things like that are slightly less accurate in the Redmi Watch 5 Active. The Active is cheaper and has a bigger screen (2>1.97 inches). The Redmi Watch 4's battery lasts longer than the 5 active's (when not using GNSS).

    • @TechMishka
      @TechMishka  Месяц назад +1

      The active is more basic one. It is a available only for a few markets.

      Both are good devices. I prefer the Zepp app, so...

  • @NotTheRealMiniBloxia

    I am thinking of getting the smart band 9 pro and sell my Apple Watch Series 4 Nike+ aluminium

      Hmm, could be a good plan, but the Apple watch is also a nice device

    • @TechMishka
      @TechMishka  16 дней назад

      Likely she gave you the Chinese version. In the app set the region to China and it will work.

      Bit are great choices. Watch 5 should be released in the early days of 2025, so this would be interesting too

      Hmm, it was perfectly fine in my case. Sometimes you need to refresh and then it is quite fine.
