XIAOMI Mi Smart Band 6 40% Larger 1.56'' AMOLED Touch Screen, Sleep Breathing Tracking, 5ATM Water Resistant, 14 Days Battery Life, 30 Sports Mode, Fitness, Steps, Sleep, Heart Rate Monitor

I love this Smart Band, best one I have ever had, very accurate, but let me tell you that I almost returned it the next day I received it because I was not able to sync with Google Fit and Virgin Pulse (I get rewards $). I open box, charged the unit, proceed to scan the code to download the ap that came in the booklet. Unfortunately, that ap did not sync with Google fit which is linked to Virgin Pulse, so I was not getting any data transferred from the band watch to neither of the other two aps. I almost gave up, I even requested a return, but I did some digging and watched some you tube videos and buala!!!!! I tried one last thing and downloaded the ZEPP LIFE AP (Formerly Mi Fit) and I was able to zinc all my aps now! Here's what you need to do if something like this happens to you. Download the Zepp Life Ap. After you create an account etc, click on profile ( see screen shot 2), then click on "Add Accounts" and select Google Fit...you are all set!. If yo also want to sync with Virgin Pulse, just open ap, click profile in the bottom right, click Devices & Apps, My connected Devices and apps, and select Google Fit. I love that I can track my sleep (which is not enough LOL), Steps, receive call, text, Watsap, email notifications (can't respond but I don't care). You can customize the face of the watch, as well of the brightness, program watch for low light while you sleep, check oxigen level, heart rate, weather, and a lot of other things you can do, there's a ton of great tip videos in you tube. I bought replacement bands that are really cool as well so I exchange bands every other day. Overall this is an amazing band at an incredible price with tons of features. I LOVE IT!!!!!

I love that this smart band does everything that my expensive watch does PLUS has the oxygen sensor (that feature is not available on my “SE Watch”) and I decided that I wanted to try this band because of the price. The other reason is because the battery life is so insanely amazing on these Mi bands - 8-14 days between charges! My expensive watch can’t even hold a charge for 24 full hours so I can’t fully utilize the sleep tracking function. This band is amazing. I tested the accuracy of the heart rate and oxygen sensor at work and it was very accurate! The notifications are great on both android and iOS phones (I have tested both!) the bands are super easy to find on here as far as replacements! The walking function knows when you are not walking and will ask you if you are done. The stress function is still something I am honestly learning about. The sleep function is quite insightful. I don’t feel this band on me when wearing unlike the watch. I can sleep in it no problem. I can also swim in it without any issues. Changing bands is easy. Set up is easy and just involves downloading the app. If you run into issues, just impair and start again. Overall, I really like it for work, exercise, and life!

I love almost everything about the Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 6—it’s feature-rich, accurate, and an excellent value for the price. Unfortunately, the band design is a major drawback. The band uses a round peg on one side that pushes into a hole on the other side to lock it in place. While this looks minimal, it’s far too easy for the band to slip off. I actually lost my first Band 6 because it came loose, fell to the ground, and I didn’t even notice. I had to purchase a replacement, only to find that the band design hadn’t improved. Now I’m constantly checking my wrist to make sure it’s still secure, which takes away from an otherwise great experience. If Xiaomi could redesign the band to be more secure, this would be close to a perfect product.

Let me start here. This is a good cheap entry level smartwatch to use for a few months as you decide whether a smartwatch is a good device that would actually be useful for you, and from there you can decide whether or not you want to take the plunge on higher end watch devices — whether centered around lifestyle or fitness, give up wanting a smartwatch at all, or keep buying these lower end watches that are a great value with basic functions. This band worked as expected for the past 9 months while I've lived a fairly inactive life. Now I'm training for an ultramarathon and within the first week of actually using the band as a serious fitness tracker, the screen popped out of the case during a 13 mile run and won't stay back in. Fortunately, I was fixing to upgrade to a more serious tracker with a more reliable GPS and heart rate tracking; this little mishap just accelerated that purchase. I'm upgrading a Garmin Enduro 2. This is a big step, but one that I'm confident in, and I wouldn't have that confidence if it wasn't for the past few months that I've spent with the mi band 6 in my life. Still, you'll notice I'm giving this tracker five stars, and that's no accident. This device is an incredible value for $40. If you're satisfied with the basic features and won't take this fitness tracker on many extreme workouts, it's a great way to save hundreds of dollars on one of the higher-end fitness bands that do many of the same things. I got this band mainly as a vibrating alarm clock, a sleep tracker, and a device that would vibrate when I got texts/calls so I could keep my phone silent for all other notifications — and the mi band 6 succeeded wonderfully with each of these assignments. But I wasn't yet taking my fitness seriously, so when I started putting it to the test in fitness, that's where the band started to fall short. Get this band as a lifestyle smartwatch and expect basic reliability for step counting, sleep tracking, and other fitness features. But this is not a replacement for a higher-end fitness gadget that you can really depend on if you are the kind of person who needs reliable data on their workouts. Expect this to last a few months with good care, and serve has a good stepping stone to other smartwatches.
