Xiaomi Smart Band 8 Tips & Tricks to Maximise your Day!

[@Ger0ne]

For me it's compelling that it packs features like AMOLED screen with autobrightness, into such a small form factor, with a wide range of different straps, all for an affordable price.

[@marcvanrossen]

Nog nooit een smartband gehad maar altijd met veel interesse naar een miband gekeken! Het scherm is echt een vooruitgang met vorige generaties!

[@marcosquintana99]

I really enjoy the focus mode giving you a Pomodoro timer and turning off notifications work a few touches on the screen

[@Angelos__A]

Thanks for the giveaway. My favorite feature is the removable straps. I wish it had NFC for payments. Xiaomi has launched Xiaomi Pay in my country but they tripping themselves with the absence of NFC in most of their wearables.

[@hendrieksetiawan5269]

I found this on mi website: *The band display must to be oriented towards you when attaching the Running Clip. Incorrect orientation will affect the accuracy of the data.* So the top of the watch facing forward?

[@dresus3604]

my favourite feature is the fact that it has a better and updated refresh rate to 60hz and the always on display

[@giladwino]

I love the different straps and the way they changed how they switch them.

[@ibrahimkesetovic7869]

I love how we have a much more possibilities to use Xiaomi Mi Band 8, looking forward probably to buy one when it launches to Germany. Favorite is to use it as a watch with long lasting battery as I have Galaxy Watch 4 Classic LTE... every 18h needs to be chraged, it packs a lot of future but 90% of them will not be used by a standard user. 😊 It's been a while since I follow you over 1+ year now and ever since I didn't regret at all that I follow your KZbin Channel cuz' vid's are amazing. 😊 Greetings from Germamy. Keep it up! 🇩🇪

[@ostentatiousostrich]

Oh man.. I could really use this watch. My Mi Band 6 doesn't react to the touch input anymore, so can only see the time with raise to wake 😅 Best watch I ever owned because of its simplicity and size. Also the Notify app is amazing for tracking my sports (table tennis and kickboxing). Fingers crossed! 😊 (touch stopped functioning after swimming and water got in the case.. I've been showering and swimming with it daily since day one, though. It held up great all things considered. Friend of mine had the same issue. Hope the 8 has better water proofing.)

[@Daviiid269]

I love the high brightness and auto brightness and the running Clío is also really cool!

[@IXISSV]

I'm currently on the smart band 7, I've had the 5 & 3 in the past 👍😁 I love the battery life on mine and the interchangeable straps ♥️ style it to match what I'm wearing 👍 If i win, I'll have a white one please 😉🤞🤞

[@SalarAzad]

thank you for this video, the shoe clip is the best feature in my opinion, it would be cool to try.

[@mohammadamjad5540]

I love the B&W band

[@MrKartoffelstampfer]

Wow this looks like one of the biggest updates yet. To me it looks way more premium with the metallic frame instead of silicone. Thanks for the insights, Martijn!

[@kweenjade01]

The frame is actually plastic with a metal look. Seems to be durable so far.

[@dimitrisscript]

I like the feature that predicts the battery life. If it can charge from my phone then this would be great!

[@watv3696]

This time the screen is more smooth and have very less to none bezels. I also like the new bracelets that are available for the Mi band 8. I hope I win this contest🎉

[@FerryvanRoozendaal]

Ziet er uit als een flinke upgrade over mijn huidige smartband 4 😅 met als "grootse" upgrade de enorme en beter leesbare display!

[@jackcz9283]

One of my favourite upgrade is the auto brightness!!! 🎉

[@MrMarktechnobeat]

Hey, Thank you for your Review it was filled with a lot of information. The 60hz Display is a great Upgrade and hopefully it will be super smooth. But to be honest the most awesome feature are the new jogging features!!! I never heard from a Smartband collecting so much Information to optimize your run. Just Awsome. I really need to get one of these.... :D

[@tommasozucca6677]

my favourite feature is no doubt the screen refresh rate, 60hz instead of 30 hz is way smoother!

[@panosm13]

Great review ! The shoe mode for running is pretty awesome. It would be nice to create a new mode similar to that for cycling!

[@MartijnWester]

[@ramzikahlouche]

I Have Band 6 And Very Helpful For Many Ways Running And Cycling And Longer Battery ✌

[@karlmercado2022]

My favorite feature is definitely the enhanced battery indicator! It takes out the guesswork of when the smart band will die. 😅

[@Charris2007]

could we put Smart Band 6 in the running Clip of Smart Band 8 ..?!

Lost my band 5 while traveling. I miss it. Idek if i can get it here again.

[@Freddystapersma69]

I use my Mi smartband in combination with home assistant to get notifications on my watch. My son his Miband 5 just broke down so would be a great addition to give him a new one and also make use of all great goodies the smartband 8 has!! Thnx Martijn for a nother good vid :)

[@yannicktorfs9669]

3:56 Running clip, posture, the fact they try to think outside the box and try and maybe fail, but maybe win. Nice informative video and makes me even buy one, will watch you‘re other video for sure.

[@nequastar1826]

I love the pendant mode, I sometimes can't wear my mi band 6 on my wrist or my wrist just needs a break, I look forward to buying one some time this year.

[@bodiima8382]

my favorite feature in Xiaomi band 8 is the 60hz display, it would be cool to see the difference in real life, compared to my old xiaomi band 5

[@torypryce]

Love how they added the quick release button and opened it up to even more accessories

[@Alin2021]

how did you got the watch face in english ?

[@Cristianput]

Great video and nice ideas for how to use it, it would be very useful for my runs!!

[@vincentdemmenie]

The great battery life you mention, even with all these features on. That sounds incredible.

[@remirms2239]

Bedankt voor de vele informatie en geweldige video weeral eens! Vraagje: ik ben momenteel aan het overwegen om een Xiaomi Watch S1 te kopen, maar ik vraag me af hoe het nu zit met de integratie met andere apps (Strava, contactloos betalen, ...) Hebben recente updates daar verbetering in gebracht?

[@tarunrao879]

Honestly speaking The auto adjusting brightness feature, most people waiting for this .

[@Tockz]

My favourite feature is the auto brightness! 😄

[@guiomariomonteiro8557]

My favorite feature is the removable straps

[@andraperdana7]

The added feature of using the Smart Band 8 as a clip on your shoes definitely is my favorite feature. It gives the device more flexibility in its usability.

[@ilyavolkov9001]

Definitely autobrightness (if it works properly) is my favourite change and also the new strap system looks very nice.

[@simaocorreia9705]

I love de auto brightness feature. Every time I try to track my sleep with my miband 5, I get randomly flashbanged in the middle of the night when I lift my arms :')

[@stinkvent]

i like the running clip especially!

[@63robo]

My favorite feature is that now it shows how long the battery stays on.

[@johnlysbergborrits]

I love the running clip. I have arthritis in the hands, so can not wear the band becacase lot of pain :-) 🇩🇰

[@ivanpetkov6941]

I love the new 60Hz AMOLED screen and the new strap options that are different from silicone.

[@MartijnWester]

@@MartijnWester I so happy 😲 🥳 🎉... I didn't use Instagram, so let's be here.

[@Show2Times]

The Running analysis is crazy for such a small band!

[@ziyaadmahomed2060]

Great video. Was waiting for this review. I know i cant enter the giveaway as im outside Europe, but i love the running clip feature on the smart band 8.

[@serenearches]

the battery life has got to be the main reason to get this. the fact that you don't need to take it off and charge it everyday is really important for me.

[@PjLim-ps9nc]

How to connect mi band 8 to strava?

[@amral_ja]

Thanks. By the way, you didn't bind the necklace correctly. that's why it hanged to the side👍

[@KifKroker]

love she shoes tag, nice product 🎉

[@ameesham4560]

i love the double loop straps because its look sick and stand out compare to other straps (based on my opinion) not to mention the colour combination of black and white colours

[@deiyor]

That shit is more expensive than the watch

[@TheMahaMousa]

I like the necklace option and also appreciate the great battery life 👍👍

[@vasilischristodoulou6884]

Great video! My favourite features is that you can now put the band on your foot. That's fascinating and it will help me a lot (i am a runner). Also i loved the fact that you can now see the exact time that the band will shut down! Thanks for fhs the giveaway good luck to everyone i hope i am one of the three winners!

[@myxro]

Love the auto brightness, new metalic frame and accessories. Looking forward for the global version in the stores and also for the mi fitness app to support the mi scale , so I delete the zepp life app. Best wishes!

[@danielemdalashkanian1890]

For me the 60Hz screen takes the cake. 🎂🎉 The 30Hz screen on previous models was always a compromise. Now the device seems a bit more premium 😎

[@MegaPj2012]

I love the always on display, so there is always a clock visible on the band!

[@Jonathan-n5p]

Thanks for the video, best one on this topic Ive seen yet

[@Bazengames]

Thanks for the clear video!

[@gamoya12]

[@patrikbuteanu5484]

The screen is bigger and the lock screen in cool

[@viniciuscezar4303]

incredible"!!! i like this !!!

[@alemig0537]

I actually love the 60hz feature, it makes the band feel so smooth and premium. I also love the fact that even with a display this good and this smooth it still has an amazing battery life ❤.

[@kyrvster]

The screen looks really awesome and the auto brightness is such a plus. But to be honest the band has such a non intrusive design that it’s just so seamless to use either day to day or for fitness so the new way to connect the bands is really cool. Thanks for the great content ✌️

Cheers Martijn! 🎉

[@Ryurex]

I think the bigger battery and screen being a bit brighter and bigger is hugely beneficial, as microchips improve they are more efficient and them having added some new features such as the battery indicator is gold to knowing if the device is intended or not, the new system of clipping the straps to the band is also a much needed upgrade, those small pins which u needed to attach the band to the chassis was a horrible mechanism and it caused quite often that the wristband would get loose and loose the pin and unable to wear the band. As someone who had the smart band 6 for a long time and it being broken and dying for a replacement as the whole product gives valueable information, I think these upgrades are definitely worth it and will definitely would want one, a good birthday gift I would say so!

[@mihailtinchev]

My favorite new feature of the new Xiaomi Smart Band 8 is the 60Hz screen. It is so great to have a smooth running display!
