I bought this watch on NZ 2 years ago for 200 NZD. Still going strong, with a month between charges. My wife's Samsung almost twice the price barely lasts 2 days Bought the Redmi note 8 pro about a year before that, and that's still going, no issues. Xiaomi is pretty good brand, a lot of performance for fraction of status phones

Since my previous comment, I went ahead and bought this exact model, even the color. I love the way it looks in person, and how light it is one wrist. In the basics, it does good. I mean, all the essentials are there, and unless you're not obsessed with medical-grade tracking, you're fine. I bought mine on eBay, used in excellent condition, for 50 Euros. You can't go wrong, really, with that price.

If you keep the location services ON, the widget should well refresh. Both devices are wonderful. The Mi Watch may be a bit more accurate in terms of GPS tracking.

Mi Watch has a nice and accurate stress tracking, much better than Honor or Samsung, and an OK sleep tracking, better than Samsung. But that's about it. The deal breakers are the buggy raise to wake feature (often lights up when it shouldn't, and you have to raise your hand really high for the watch to light up) and very short range Bluetooth connection with your phone.

Is it possible to upgrade the regular version to the international one? And what are the differences between these two besides available languages ? Thank you for the amazing review

[@CRANEREVIEWS]

It's not possible to upgrade officially, but there are modded apk's that lets you get extra languages and stuff

[@TechMishka]

Good to know that!

[@khalidoudra]

@@CRANEREVIEWS can you please tell us an exemple how it can be done.. Much appreciated

[@CRANEREVIEWS]

@@khalidoudra I would search on tech forums, I know that there is a Russian mod called m0rtal v1.2 (as I am using it right now) it added cyrillic support to the chinese versions for example, they are now working on adding Alexa voice assistant. I didn't research it well enough, but I am sure there are others too!

When is it coming to Amazon USA?

[@TechMishka]

Not sure if it's coming at all. I can only see the Lite version there.

[@robertmapp6506]

Ok

[@TomsMavrick]

Where can we get this? The link said doesn’t ship to USA

[@TechMishka]

Right now only the Lite edition is available in USA.

Is wifi an essential feature for a smart watch?

[@TechMishka]

For this one - not at all.

[@justinecruz9039]

Is it good for its price? Instead going for gt2 pro?

[@ronniecruz6390]

For the price, yes. GT2Pro though is still more premium hands down.

[@TechMishka]

Yes, it's good for the price. The GT2 (non-pro) is a little more expensive and packs a little more features.

[@justinecruz9039]

Someone said that I should go for Fossil Gen 5 or Samsung Active 2. The Gt2 pro/gt2 UI is laggy

[@danielng5854]

Hi, does it support nfc payment?

[@TechMishka]

It doesn't.
