Nice video thank you!. What about the dimensions? Is the band 8 noticeable taller compared to 7? I have the 7 and I have small wrist the 7 occupies almost all of it and slightly bigger would be a down for me

[@KNACKSKILL]

Hi Juan, mb8 and 7 are in the same dimensions/size. Thanks

[@jpc010]

@@KNACKSKILL thank you again!

[@KNACKSKILL]

[@kweenjade01]

I'm wondering the same thing as my Fitbit Luxe is the perfect size for my small wrist. (But as usual with Fitbit products it doesn't last more than a year). I don't think manufacturers care abt us small wristed ladies/peeps. Apple Watches and Versas kill my wrist after long periods. (I don't want to buy the inside 3 as I don't like the design as much as the luxe and I'm kinda over Fitbit atp).

why it doesn't last more than one year? im looking to buy the same fitbit as your, you don't like it? (im a men with a small wrist)@@kweenjade01

My 6 is dying ( I accidentally took it scuba diving my bad) but the fact I can use my 6 straps with the 7 whereas i wont be able to with the 8 makes the 7 more interesting. The main benefit to me of the 8 might be i can use NFC for payments but Ive not seen any reference to that working in the UK..

[@KNACKSKILL]

NFC is only for china, hongkong and macao. Asia where using Alipay

[@KNACKSKILL]

It means you need to upgrade now a new version, how long did you use your MB6?

[@OfficiallyZio]

@@KNACKSKILLI just lost my MB6 recently which made me really depressed and wanting to buy another Mi band. Though I can’t decide whether I should rebuy Mi band 6 for a cheaper price or buy Mi band 8. Can you help me out?

[@KNACKSKILL]

@@OfficiallyZio buy mi band 8 instead or 7 but 8 is more upgraded than 7, they both good to buy it defend in your budget. Thanks

[@kweenjade01]

Get the mb7. The mb8 NFC ft only works in China w a specific app

[@rafalnakama]

From my experience using new mi band 8 comparing to band 6 gives me bad experience. Software is worse. I can’t transfer stats from previous band. Timer is less intuitive. Band loses bluetooth connection with phone. Vibration fells weaker. I don’t fell this nice transition. That my feeling. I’m not fully satisfied 😢

[@KNACKSKILL]

sorry about that, for me it is a nice upgrade than the old once. Hope they will be more upgrade on the 9. Thanks

[@dalibork]

there has been an firmware update one day ago. Maybe they changed all that.

[@ZeriTV]

I'm currently using MB6, I was able to transfer my ZepLife data to Mi Fitness. It took some time though :)

[@jelenanikolic3932]

Hi, is MB7 more accurate than MB8, in health, sleeping etc. ? I am thinking of buying one, just can't decide

[@KNACKSKILL]

They both the same in accuracy in health, sleep monitoring and other's the deferent is 8 is more upgraded system and much more vivid amoled display and with new features and important it has a watch face that can play games and more battery life that the MB7. Hope this help you decide and always remeber it is not 100% percent accurate and it is not intended for medical use. Thanks

[@EngineerSpock]

​@@KNACKSKILLI noticed that mb8 give much less pai points comparing to mb7. The difference in my case is up to 3 times. Im boxing once a week and lifting in a gym twice and mb7 gave almost 100 pai for that. MB8 gives 50 at best.

[@aphrodieMonkey]

@@KNACKSKILL 7 has games too.

[@fablanta]

Hi KS. Faces that display just hours and minutes could show time that is almost a minutes late. Do any of the watchfaces show seconds please? Better still can you put together your own custom watch face using the individual elements you want like: Day of week, heart rate, paces (pity they don't do distance instead as that is probably what is measured), battery etc?

[@KNACKSKILL]

Hi Fab, I think it has a watch face that have heart rate and others toh=gether with the time, but you need to find it in the Mi fitness app watch faces and more watch faces that you can choose. Thanks

My mi 7 screen is not cracked but it's lcd is all Lines n n just lights up on its own although it still tracks my steps n sleep. Any hope that it gets fixed?

Hi Engi, thanks for the info, MB7 and 8 is not 100% accurate like the actual punch by numbers or walk by steps, sometimes counts exceeds to 6 or more that in our actual counting. But it is so close same with the expensive smartwatches not 100% accurate as well. Thanks

[@Echo_675]

I still dont jnderstand what are the biggest changes other than NFC?

[@KNACKSKILL]

for the 7 and 8, changes are the body and strap and some UI update. Thanks

[@fablanta]

Unrelated but, what is the cheapest smart watch/band that will enable you to use the NFC/Gpay combo please?

[@KNACKSKILL]

I suggest look for honor, huawei and xiaomi band china version with NFC and it is budget friendly and other brand. But with GPAY, it is not supported, only alipay and weixin pay. Hope this help. thanks

​@juliarosa7518 I really love how the Mi Band 8 looks like, but if you come to think of it, the metal frame is prone to getting scratched over time, with wear and tear. Whereas with the Band 7, there's a peace of mind with the silicon strap protecting the Band, because then you can put it anywhere without getting worried about the scratches.
