Straps for Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 5 / Mi Band 6, Colourful Replacement Bracelet in Anti-Lost Silicone Designed Fitness Tracker Accessories [Compatible with Xiaomi Mi Band 5/6] (4 Pieces)

Product Information

Once again we don't get an NFC option on the Mi Smart Band 6 - the feature once again reserved for the Chinese model. We do hope Xiaomi overcomes whatever is preventing it from making an international NFC-enabled band and delivers one soon. Features like setting alarms and accessing the camera remote require digging into the Band’s settings, but thankfully it’s software that’s easy to get to grips with and navigate once you know where things live. Custom dials: Some dials support the display of custom content, allowing you to display your favorite or most-used features on the dial according to your needs; That extra screen real estate is also welcome because it means more information can be displayed at once, which is most noticeable on the watch screen. Xiaomi also seems to have increased the size of its icons, making it easier to glance at your information during the day.

m water resistance: The 50 m water resistance is based on standard GB/T 30106-2013 and has been tested by the China National Horological Quality Supervision and Testing Center. Water resistance report numbers: Mi Smart Band 5: QT2003010. The water resistance rating is 5 ATM (equivalent to a depth of 50 m under water), allowing the device to be worn while showering and swimming, but not in saunas or when diving; Approximately 20% increase in display area: The display area of the Mi Band 5 is approximately 20% larger than that of Mi Smart Band 4. Data obtained from Huami Labs. The indentations around the rubber strap are still here and they will accumulate dirt over time, and we suggest cleaning these on a regular basis to avoid rashes or worse. It sure isn't ideal, but it's not a headache either. Conditions for testing Mi Smart Band 5 14-day battery life in normal mode are as follows: fully charged; automatic heart rate monitoring activated for 30 minutes; lift-wrist-to-wake function activated; all other settings set to factory defaults; 100 notifications received and displayed per day; 2 alarms per day, each with 5 seconds of vibration; 100 activations of the lift-wrist-to-wake function; syncing data with the app once per day;The Mi Band 6's body is identical in size to the Mi Band 5 - it's the same tiny piece of plastic and with tempered glass atop the screen. The size and weight remain pretty much the same - 47.4 x 18.6 x 12.7 mm and 12.8 grams (vs. 46.95 x 18.15 x 12.45 mm and 12 grams). And that's great news for two reasons - the new features didn't make the Mi Band bigger, and all straps you bought for your Mi Band 5 are compatible with the Mi Band 6. m water resistance: The 50 m water resistance is based on standard GB/T 30106-2013 and has been tested by the China National Horological Quality Supervision and Testing Center.

Xiaomi's Mi Smart Band, or just Mi Band as it's known in China, is undeniably one of the most popular wearables across the world. It's small, lightweight, and super cheap, yet it aims to do a ton of stuff. The idea of getting people to think more about heart rate than counting steps is actually a positive thing. It’s displayed nicely on the device, and if you want to see scores and get a better understanding of PAI scores, you'll find more detailed information in the Mi Fit app. While you can see a fair amount of data on the Mi Band itself, you’ll need to head to the Mi Fit companion phone app, which is compatible with Android and iOS. It’s here where you can see more in the way of trends and the place to adjust band settings.Conditions for testing Mi Band 5 (Standard) 20-day battery life in power-saving mode are as follows: fully charged; automatic heart rate monitoring disabled; sleep monitoring disabled; lift-wrist-to-wake function disabled; 100 notifications received and displayed per day; 2 alarms per day, each with 5 seconds of vibration; 10 taps of the touch button per day to display the time; syncing with the app once per day; Last year the Mi Band 5 brought a larger OLED screen and a magnetic charging - two major upgrades over the Mi Band 4. This year the screen sees an even bigger boost with an edge-to-edge full-color OLED. The Mi Band 6 is indeed really good in doing these things - showing notifications all day long (there is DND mode or Night mode, of course), and its heart rate and SpO2 sensor are pretty accurate - we tested it against a regular oximeter and the deviation was less than 5% in 9 out of 10 times (it really depends on how good you've tightened the band. The sensors at the bottom of the Mi Band 6 have different arrangement but are equally thin. The heart-rate sensor has been upgraded with the ability to monitor SpO2 (blood oxygen) and that's probably why the bottom looks different. You can also spot the pogo charging pins. The Mi Smart Band 6 is a cheap wearable, so don't expect it to dramatically improve your health on its own. Then again, neither will the latest Apple Watch and its Fitness+ paid service. But at its price we'd sure describe the Mi Smart Band 6 as an overachiever. It has most of the functions much more expensive smartwatches brag about, and yet costs a fraction of their price. It's also way more compact, lightweight, and the battery life is amazing - a week, or two weeks is something no smartwatch can offer (with the same routine as the Band) unless it goes into some battery saving mode.

The Health Monitoring is expanded. You can set the band to measure heart rate at intervals throughout the day and alert you if something is not looking good. It can also increase the said interval if it detects sport activity.

Where can I get more bands?

Conditions for testing Mi Band 5 NFC 14-day battery life in standard mode are as follows: fully charged; automatic heart rate monitoring activated for 30 minutes; lift-wrist-to-wake function activated; all other settings set to factory defaults; 100 notifications received and displayed per day; 2 alarms per day, each with 5 seconds of vibration; 100 activation of the lift wrist to wake up function; syncing data with the app once per day; swiping for door access 6 times per day; The heart rate sensor is put to use for a new feature and called PAI (Personal Activity Intelligence), which first appeared on Amazfit devices. This is intended to shift the focus away from hitting daily step counts to doing regular activities that raise your heart rate. You’re then given a PAI score to indicate your daily totals. The Mi Band 4 was the first to support non-Latin symbols, like Cyrillic, out of the box without any tweaks. And now, the Mi Band 6 supports a basic set of emote icons. This means it won't show all emotes but the most basic ones, and it depends on the app, but it's better than nothing. Those ??? symbols appearing instead of emotes are now occurring less and we'll gladly take that. Meanwhile the global pandemic made the pulse oximeters (SpO2) a must-have and the Mi Band 6 is keeping with the latest trends by adding a blood oxygen level monitor of its own. Unboxing All battery life test data has been obtained from Huami Labs. Various factors can influence battery life such as settings used, the way the device is operated, environmental conditions and so on, all of which may result in battery life in actual use differing from that found in lab data;
