Hey Michael, nice video as always. One question: Is SpO2 "tracking" continuous like HR tracking (with a graph and everything) or you take one measurement manually every time?

[@cloudyair7395]

pls respoond^^^^

[@TechMishka]

It is manual at this point.

[@BrickTop70]

No wearable will constantly measure SpO2, as it is a battery draining process

[@dogansengun]

@@BrickTop70 most current gen Garmin wearables and latest square shaped Ticwatch do infact. ;)

[@My03Tundra]

@@dogansengun In time. They use different sensors, then the optical based ones, in order to do that. It would be nice to see the Apple Watch SE updated to have that, or it be implemented in a sub $300 device. The Fitbit Sense does it, with one bit caveat; only when you’re sleeping, and during periods of stillness in the sleep cycle.

[@ЭдуардСухарев-ш9ч]

During workout I usually need timer to either track HIIT workout or at least constraint the rest time between sets/excercises, but neither Mi Band 5 nor Mi Band 6 can do that now: both block access to timer function when workout mode is enabled. Although, Mi Band 6 now has music controls available in workout mode, which means it definitely has guts to manage parallel tasks here so I hold my fingers crossed so that they allow customizing the available-in-workout-mode function.

[@TechMishka]

Multi-tasking is still a no-go for these basic trackers. I think AMazfit GTR2 can do that.

[@ЭдуардСухарев-ш9ч]

@@TechMishka as I've pointed out, Mi Band 6 already has multitasking, but it's limited to music player controls during workout. It's limited, but it's there, which means other combinations could be brought in, too.

[@angelagoulartADV]

@@TechMishka Is there any other smartband that does this function? parallel tasks ?

[@uranium_donut]

Hey there, is the music control available from the workout screen (while making a workout)? It was blocked on the 5/4

[@gr1f1th]

I agree that would be nice. I don't like how you get locked into the workout screen.

Can you say, is it possible to use simultaneously music player and sport mode ?

[@EHLAiNEEE]

This is one of my concern as well! I hope they will have it on Mi Band 7!!

[@TechMishka]

Yes, you can do this

[@EHLAiNEEE]

Seriously?????

[@rayzortex]

For those who are having trouble choosing between Mi band 6 and Honor band 6, rest assured as i will tell the details to make you choose which suits you best. Mi band 6: Suitable for people who are living in minimalist, the screen size is smaller than Honor Band 6 no doubt, but the display of it is better than honor band 6 ( it has 326 ppi). Suitable for those who expect more workout modes as this band has 30 workout modes that can fit your style. The magnetic charging is also good. Honor Band 6: Has less features compared to Mi Band 6, but the screen size is what gives you the chills. It looks just like a smartwatch for such a cheap price! Though it only has 10 workout modes which isnt that much. Furthermore, it has a button on the side panel which might be dangerous in case if you accidentally pressed it while swimming underwater. Unless if this band has the *Water eject" option that Apple Watch and Samsung has, then id say its more worth it (but that would make it more expensive so thats fine) Conclusion, if you want more Features over Looks, you can go for Mi Band 6. If you prefer a bigger sized fitness tracker but with less features, you can go for the Honor Band 6. For me, i like both of them, but im the kind of a fitness guy who wants that jump rope and Boxing mode so i would go for Mi Band 6. Let me know what you guys think 😅

[@smartbug1]

I dont get it, what is the problem in you press the button, isnt honor band 6 water resistant? Also I dont care about more sport modes and I like bigger screen and I like tru sleep option better so I am waiting for honor band 6 to be available.

[@rayzortex]

@@smartbug1 Actually wasnt me who said that in the first place, but it was a rumour from this youtuber who reviewed his Honor Band 6 (ill check back that video later). He said that while swimming, its best that you shouldnt press the button while the band is *underwater* because the water might enter inside the band through the button ( theres a slight thin outer ring hole that surrounds the button). Not sure if its true but even if that was true, chances of it not being waterproof is very very low since its already proven that Honor Band 6 is waterproof. 😁

[@kokohekmatyar5515]

In terms of accuracy, which are more functional?

[@rayzortex]

@@kokohekmatyar5515 That one i cant say, because i dont even have those two bands in my possession 😅🤣 (all of what i said was just based on my research only) So for that, lets wait until someone does a video comparison of Honor Band 6 vs Mi Band 6 to see which is more accurate. I heard Honor band 6's sleep tracking is very accurate, not sure how mi band 6 is like.

[@hieupham7656]

Huawei band 6: 60$ est, 96 sport modes, SPO2 all day, and Huawei problem you know right?

[@theungroundable5148]

1. Can you see the time while in a workout yet? 2. Does it go on every screen and press every button in the shower still? 3. Are steps accurate? I've just had a huawei gt2 and Ticwatch Pro 3. Both give double the amount of steps - yet no-one seems to put this in any review. I got rid of them both for mi band 5 which actually works

[@TechMishka]

1. no 2. yeah :) 3 Yeah, its accurate. But for me also the GT2 is accurate.

[@richardpires9839]

i got the mi band 6 for christmas and it's very amazing. i'm thinking about buying at least 3 more. they're very useful compared to a normal watch or having to constantly check the phone. this has to be the first time in my life i recommend a product. lol.

[@TechMishka]

Sounds like you want to get one for all your family membets? I am quite a fan of these trackers too!

[@HenPapirman]

Mi band 6 can take photos from any device? Does it have a GPS? - which is more accurate, Honor band 6 or this? - Which one would you recommend? HONOR Band 6 or this?

[@dayolawuni]

I'm curious about these too

[@Alecksander]

I've read the band 6 does have GPS as per: www.makeuseof.com/xiaomi-mi-band-6-announcement/

[@rayzortex]

If ur more of a fitness guy, then go for Mi Band 6 since theres 30 sports modes available. If you want something that looks bigger and like a smartwatch screen, you can go for the Honor Band 6, but keep in mind that honor band 6 only has 10 sports modes compared to the mi band 6 that has 30. The display of it only has 286 ppi (not sure, but it is somwhere between 280-286) where as mi band 6 amoled display has 326 ppi which is insane for such a small fitness tracker 🔥

[@HenPapirman]

Michael, can you clarify please if the SPO2 sensor gives just an instantaneous reading, or will this do continous tracking and reporting on the app? For example, will it provide a graph or table of values through the night? Thanks as always.

[@TechMishka]

Hey, that's a very good question! It enables you to track SPO2 manually - so you need to go to the app, launch it, wait 30 seconds and follow the instructions and then it shows the result. There's no continuous SpO2 tracking as it is with some smartwatches - like GT2 Pro or Ticwatch Pro 3.

[@joeylira]

I'm pretty sure it integrates with Strava if you use the Zepp app instead of the Mi Fit App. I switched to the Zepp App from Mi Fit for my Mi Band 4 and all my runs get automatically synced to Strava.

Thing is that I've tried it, but didn't work with this version. Might be that the Zepp app will support it in the future.

@Tech4all I ended up getting the Honor Band 6. But it's going back to the store cause I just ordered a Mi Band 6. I can't wait for your Versus video on them. I'm so excited for it. To me the main difference to me is the Blood Oxygen Level reader. As one does it while you sleep. And yeah the 30 vs 10 exercise thing but eyy they pretty much analyze the same things, BPM and burn calories.. also the Wide vs Long screen, and brighter screen. Please include which one does Blood Oxygen Levels more accurately and also which one, in general, more accurate. Thank you!!

Another great review, Mihail. I'm really glad you showed the MB6 next to the Honor Band 6. I've been REALLY tempted to pick up the HB6, even though I've been quite happy with my MB5. But I'm glad I waited as long as I have, as the MB6 will definitely prove to be the superior choice. Unfortunately, Huawei/Honor have continued to make accessing their watch face store seemingly impossible for U.S. customers, which kept me from purchasing the HB6. I'm very glad to see Xiaomi have managed to exceed the screen size of the HB6, all while keeping the exact form factor of the MB5. I'll be watching to see which comparisons you do between the MB6 and other trackers.

[@TechMishka]

Hey, thanks for the kind comment. I think the overall size of HB6 is still a bit bigger, and maybe overall - better visible. But you are right - the iPhone app is quite a nightmare and the lack of integration with some platforms is a deal breaker for many people. Mi Band 5 and 6 are quite good choices. I still like a lot the Mi Band 4 too 🧐

[@ajbfwb]

@@TechMishka Well, I now know that basic acronyms will no longer suffice in this increasingly competitive field 🤓, as I discovered not long after my response that Huawei now has a Band 6 to compete with Honor and Xiaomi... and while Xiaomi has the tallest of the the 3 displays, I've come to really appreciate the added width of both the Ho and Hu, and they still retain that basic tracker footprint, as opposed to squarish smartwatches. I'm still hoping to come across a YT video that reveals the number and actual design of all the factory watchfaces on the Huawei Band 6. If a few of them are acceptable, I can overlook the lack of U.S. access to the watchface store. 👍👍👍 If/when they fix the watchface store issue, my Huawei Band 4 Pro (with it's early SpO2 and built-in GPS(!), but terrible factory faces) just may "come out of retirement". 🤣

I have a mi band 4 do you reccomend me to upgrade to the mi band 6

[@TechMishka]

I like the Mi Band 4 quite a lot.

[@Akash-fo4do]

Is the AOD feature available on MI band 6?

[@TechMishka]

It is not.

[@ShinaKawaii]

I love your vid and want to ask you Mi band 6 have GPS?

[@TechMishka]

It doesn't.

[@kookiezoro7083]

Can you control the music while doing a workout?

[@TechMishka]

Yes, well supported.

[@supersflallifications1783]

does it have the flashlight toggle? it's a killer feature to me!

[@TechMishka]

It unfortunately doesn't. At least not with the initial firmware version.

[@marcust17_]

Can i know whether the mi band 6 can track our track and distance without bringing the phone. Because actually i do not want to bring my phone when running. It is possible the mi band 6 can track everything without bringing the phone in running?

[@TechMishka]

It can track based on algorithm estimations. Only way to properly track is to use the phone's GPS.

[@Dannyfr33sh]

What is NFC good for in the Mi Band 6?

[@TechMishka]

Mi Band 6 doesn't support NFC.

[@Bruh-tf6xp]

Can you make a dedicated comparison video between this and honor band 6.

[@TechMishka]

Sure! Working on that already.

[@Adrianwe44]

Where did u buy it?

[@TechMishka]

It was shipped to me by Xiaomi. Should be soon available in stores.

[@Adrianwe44]

@@TechMishka ok, thanks😁

[@paragadlakha]

How is the sleep and workout accuracy of mi band 6 if compared to honor band 6 or honor watch es?

[@TechMishka]

About to compare it soon

[@jjzheng4611]

Does it have “hiking” under the workout option?

[@TechMishka]

no, unfortunately not.

[@hattrickbamford534]

Can u change the home screen other than time only?

[@Ashfullstop12]

You can! Just press and hold on the home screen and you can change it, I'm not sure if any additional watch faces come pre-loaded but you can download over 100 from the Mi Fit app.

[@hattrickbamford534]

@@Ashfullstop12 thanks for the reply. I wear a watch so I would rather have different home screen information on the band other than time

[@TechMishka]

There are plenty of great watcfaces showing different kind of info. Good thing is that there are some of the default watchfaces that are customizable too.

[@hakanaltunok2110]

No Strava integration? I thought it was compatible with Strava

[@TechMishka]

Mi Fit doesn't have this...

[@Tolotoss]

@@TechMishka That's really strange, are you sure about it? I found on several websites the information that, starting with the mi band 6, strava integration will be available, for example here: www.androidpolice.com/2021/03/29/the-xiaomi-mi-smart-band-6-ups-the-budget-fitness-tracking-game-once-again/ or here: www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-band-6/

[@dinovlogs9816]

Please ❤️make full detail comparisons between mi band 6 and honor band 6 ❤️👍 you are the best 👍

[@TechMishka]

Thanks Gajanan! Will work on that.

[@eyanglawu2049]

Good presentation, detil n comparable

[@TechMishka]

Thank you 🙂

[@shuvamshahi3406]

Is there automatic GPS tracking on the band?

[@TechMishka]

There is no GPS at all inside the Mi Band.

[@aneane5]

My Mi band 6 bracelet won't measure my Cycling without my phone on me. always prints must be connected to the phone (both bluetooth and location must be turned on). I've tried everything and it won't measure me while I'm riding my bike without my phone. Some help with this?

[@TechMishka]

This is how it is supposed to be - there is no in-built GPS

[@robertostaal]

How can I pay with the nfc function?

[@TechMishka]

You need the Mi Band with NFC first of all. Then - add a supported Bank Card in Xiaomi Wear. THen - swipe left, enable the card and pay 😎

[@pedxing]

picked up the Amazfit band 5 for $33 delivered. do not regret it. I could give a shit about the extra sports modes. I really DID hope that one of these would sync with strava but I've got a chest heart rate monitor for such things so no big deal. wake me up when we have gps and strava for $45. ;)

[@TechMishka]

I hope that once Honor fully separate from Huawei - they will sort out the part with Strava.

[@pedxing]

@@TechMishka agreed! I'd even be okay with it syncing with ANYTHING that has a conduit to Strava! These devices don't even sync with Wahoo which basically supports everything under the sun. I use Notify which is dandy but then IT doesn't support speed/cadence sensors so it lacks that functionality. But a boy can still dream, right? ;-)

[@Tolotoss]

@@pedxing That's really strange, are you sure about it not syncing with Strava?

[@pedxing]

@@Tolotoss good question... and for clarification I need to expound: it can sync the RIDE or exercise to Strava, but Strava cannot use it as a live heartrate monitor. which I actually do not think it was ever designed to do so again I just rely on my chest mounted device. For $35 there are just going to be some concessions. ;)

[@KimchiYeo]

All i just wanna know is is there a step counter and is it any goodbut no reviewer mentions this.

[@TechMishka]

Most trackers these days are pretty accurate about step tracking. So is this one.

[@loveisthething]

Is there a quick way to get back to the home screen?

[@TechMishka]

Not really...

[@gioia1640]

I'm going to buy the China Version.. Does it have Alexa integration?? thx nice vid

[@TechMishka]

No Alexa integration as far as I know. But the Amazfit Band 5 has such.

[@gioia1640]

@@TechMishka THANK YOU! I didn't hear rumours about the newest versione of amazfit band 5, do you know if they are going to release the 6?

[@sufyan41]

Does it have auto detect activities

[@TechMishka]

Yes, it does.
