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!!!!!

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.

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.

My 3rd fitbit inspire hr stopped holding a charge I decided it was time for a change. After researching what was on the market I landed on the mi smart band 6. I wasn't looking for a smart watch since I still wear actual watches (who does that?) so the goal was to find a comparable product to the inspire. The mi band 6 was that and MUCH MORE. Pros It tracks your basic activity, steps and workouts, heart rate, breathing exercises, stress tracking and sleep monitoring. Plus you get blood oxygen and PAI physiological activity indicator tracking. I didn't know I needed that or wanted that but I have it and now check it lol. It also tells you what those things are on the band which was a huge plus. It has a large number of workouts that can be picked directly on it which the Inspire hr didn't. Plus you can see your workout history and your stats for everything else for the past week on it. It has media controls so you can replay play pause skip and adjust volume of your music and it works with various music apps. You also get a 5 day weather forecast. You can also get your notifications and call alerts. I'm sure I'm missing something else but there's so much available on the mi smart band 6. Add on top of that a full-color and customizable display with a great price and you got a clear cut winner. Cons The step tracking isn't as accurate as the fitbit inspire hr. The steps and distance were lower than what the inspire and my phone had. The app is good but needs work. There's not a lot of compatibility/integration with other apps like strava. Google fit integration is solid though. While you get notifications and calls on it, the calls seem to show up late like right before it goes to voicemail. The auto tracking is weird. It doesn't just happen all the time. It wants you to confirm your doing it instead of just recording the activity like when starting a walk or run. There may be some other little things but they don't come to mind so it's not anything that I run into frequently.. All and all this is the best tracker I've found with all these features and at an AMAZING price point. If you're looking for a fitness tracker grab this one and enjoy. The next iteration will probably be even better if you can wait but at this price it won't hurt to get the mi smart band 6 now and then get the 7 when it's available.

I've had this lil guy for a year and a half, and it's still working like a charm. The face is in great shape, even though I'm not careful with it at all. The original silicone band finally cracked last month, so I purchased a multi pack of replacements - this guy is sticking around with me for a LONG time! It's so comfortable, I often forget that I'm wearing it, and I only have to remove it about twice a month to charge it - it blows my mind! I usually don't bother syncing to the app to review my sleep data (only available from the app) and to see the weather on my device (only available when synced to app). I LOVE the variety of faces available for free on the app stores. I'm into Pokemon and I found this one right away - I set it up on day one I haven't bothered changing it. There's loads of features (which are listed in the specs) - way more than I would need for my lifestyle. I highly recommend 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!

The best watch available for $50. I'm not one that wants to be talking through my watch so this is the perfect compliment to my phone. Allows you to count your steps, check the weather shows you a 5-day forecast and the humidity, tracks you're sleeping habits and REM sleep, calculates your blood oxygen saturation levels and your heart rate as well as also doing a stress test I had the knee band 5 and it broke because I had a bad strap third party accessory. I was happy to pay the extra $20 for the six as it is as a whole just a better model worth that difference. I can honestly think these watches for helping me get in shape and give me a weekly index value showing how active or inactive I am as well as my sleep quality. And then the fact that you can read texts and notifications on the watch as well as answer the phone or take pictures from your phone or switch the track on the music on the phone... Are nicely added elements. I do love that the settings allow you to change the brightness to change the lock mode to change the faces to turn on DND and other functions like updating the software. It's extremely easy to learn and use and easily gets five stars. I'm not mad I broke my five and had to spend 50 bucks to get a new six as it is by far a superior product.

I have used Samsung Gear Fit 2 for years. I love the features, how it connects to my phone, the band, the watch itself. I decided to try the Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 6 purely out of cost when my last Samsung Band died. And after almost 5 days I took it off and am returning. Xiaomi Smart Band 6 , you have a choice of 2 apps, I didn't explore into the other, I downloaded Mi Fit and jumped right in. It's not the most user friendly app, although I am used to Samsung Health so it could just be me. But you have to go all over to look at your stats. It got frustrating. I set it up to not give me any phone notifications on my wrist except associate with the app, no calls, texts, alarms, etc. I don't need two things telling me to communicate with people, this was purely for steps, sleep, stress monitoring. I did research and set it up to constantly take Heart Rate and Stress Levels. It did it for maybe a day, and then it did it maybe one or two times. I googled and followed online user instructions and guidance and did all kinds of things to try to troubleshoot it but it just wasn't giving me readings. I initially thought the sleep reading was super accurate, until 2 nights ago, I was awake and up half the night, tossing and turning only to find my sleep report the following morning had me registered as an amazing sleep night and it claims I did not wake up at all, it lied to me. Then in the dead silence of watching TV last night, it started screaming, for about 20 seconds I had no idea where the noise was coming from until I discovered it was my wrist! It was an alarm, I checked I didn't set any alarms, my phone didn't have any alarms on it at that time all notifications I DID allow on the band were set to vibrate so I had no idea why it decided to beep and it was not just a beep, it was a loud BEEEEEEEEEP BEEEEEEEEP BEEEEEEEEEP..... I felt like it was a bit excessive for such a small band. My Samsung Gear Fit never attacked me like that before. Last night was the final straw... I was completely asleep, middle of the night, it woke me up and started flashing all kinds of lights!!!! I was panicking trying not to wake up my other half and not really understanding what was even going on!!! I was swiping right, up, down, trying to rip the thing apart. I had no idea what was going on. I finally got it silenced but couldn't get the flashing disco feature to stop so I threw it under a pillow on the floor where it stayed until I left for work this morning. As I sat sipping my coffee this morning I set it up to return with the 25 pack of colorful bands I bought separately. Some side things about it if that's not enough info already. The screen doesn't lock. I like to wear it on the inside of my left wrist and anything it touches it turns on, scrolls pages, and does it's own thing. The app and the band do some kind of "connection" thing randomly and frequently which you have to sit there and let it connect... takes MINUTES, you can't use your phone during this time... Idk that was kinda frustrating. I don't like the band. I don't understand the band maybe? It's weird and wasn't friendly. BUT I was totally willing to get used to it if this thing was going to work out. The battery life was GREAT, I only charged it once during the 5 days and it wasn't even dead I just figured I was going to sit still for a while, why not charge it. The app is FREE so that's also a PLUS. The display is MEH...it's a good size, and it has options to change it but it's not very user friendly. IDK... I am going back to Samsung Health Tracker with the Gear Fit 2. Good luck! Can't beat the price!!
