Same! I'm curious to see if the improvements to the sensors make it more competitive against fitbit watches in terms of accuracy. It's probably always going to be trailing somewhat as more of a budget watch, but if the sleep sensor and heart rate monitor is at least decent, I do love the look and size of these way more than anything in fitbit series, minus maybe the inspire 3. And fitbit's paywall for so many of its features annoys me.
Would be really good to see a review for the Huawei Band 8. The price is very close to hauwei band 7 . I would just like to know if the newer band is good or not cause sometimes new things ends up being a downgrade. I would like to gift my dad the band 8 if its good. If not then i would go for the band 7
Now test with the global version? 😬😬. Amazing video btw, as always. Also, splitting the graphs by budget watches and not so budget watches could be a great idea. the mi band 8 costs 39 pounds here, comparing it with 200+ or 400+ pounds watches is a tough fight for the mi band 8. But I do appreciate that we can see which place reached the band 8 on the general graph for all watches.
it's essy. Want something cheap , that measure good, go for any recent Huawei Band, Watch Fit, Fit 2 or even older versions of watches like GT2 they are all good or very good HR trackers and quite cheap .
Good call although it looks like he kinda only cares about the stats, rather than a normal/full review of the watch which may be why he doesn't compare by price.
Rob, thanks for this review! Can you make Huawei Band 8 review too? They say they improved their Sleep tracking (it is now 3.0 version) as well as heart rate sensors (it is v.5.0 now)!
After this disappointed result by Miband 8, you absolutely gotta test Huawei Band 8 since it's already released globally and gaining popularity right now
@@simdencard Yup. Huawei Bands tend to have decent heart tracking. Considering most budget options don't have many good trackers, at least having a reliable heart tracker is enough. Hopefully the newest model doesn't screw up.
Considering this is just a preliminary review, there is still room for improvement for the Mi Band 8 after its global release. My hypothesis on why the results are quite inaccurate is Xiaomi probably did not conduct that many tests with the sensors. With limited testing, this probably hindered their calibration for the sensors to properly and accurately detect a person's heart rate. Another theory of mine (although very unlikely) is that if this is the case for the inaccuracies of the device, it could be why they only released on China first, using their customers as their population of a large scale data gathering technique and when they have gathered sufficient data, only then will they release the global version with updated firmware that apply to both Chinese and International versions of the Mi Band 8. However this is only a theory and is based on my own speculation and experiences. I got the Mi Band 7 before a global version was released and it was just as inaccurate as this one but when it launched globally, it became better. I'm hoping for a follow-up review of the device once it officially releases globally.
the software on the 7 was not improved upon based on my experience. in fact the sleep tracking on the 7 became less reliable. but yes, this review was premature given the limited refinement that is expected to come by end of a year
Thank you for this early review! It would be interesting to see how the Chinese and international versions compared to each other. I've been looking at getting this watch when the international version comes out but I'm not going to buy it until I've seen your full review. I thought I subscribed to your newsletter but I haven't seen any posts yet, I want to make sure I am subscribed. I would love to get your content newsletter.
Thanks so much!😊 Correct, haven’t sent a newsletter in a while, need to find an editor and then I will have time again. I have a (more than) full time job next to TH-cam, so finding time isn’t easy😉
Hi Rob, you should definitely include those 24hour HR measurements in the next reviews! Its pretty important info and in my own testing I also noticed pretty huge differences between devices, also some don't seem to really measure continuously...
Unfortunately, the manufacturer of Mi Bands has changed . It started with Mi Band 7 Pro. All prior models included Mi Band 7 has been produced by Huami (Amazfit). This is the reason there’s a new charger and no support for Zepp Life. I am afraid it has nothing to do with international vs local version. Real game changer for me.
Are u sure there is no support for Zepp Life? Because in this case the mi band 8 is dead to me, because Mi Fitness only shows the heart data as a 30 min. aggregation (execpt for trainings), so you'll only see min/max values for a time span, and sadly this is the way it exports data to apple health. Whereas with the mi band 7 and zepp life it exports on a minute recording basis, which you'll find in apple health as 2 min. aggregates which in turn deliver a much better reading than the dense spiky graph zepp life would provide.
Who are the Mi Bands made by now? Only Xiaomi? or another brand collaborates in the manufacture of the Mi Band 7 Pro and 8? The fact that now the data is saved in Mi fitness, suggests that Xiaomi manufactures them alone ...
your tests fit my requirements perfectly. I've been catching up on videos for 2 weeks. thank you for such good videos. can you record something about mi watch active?
@@geno8079 I bought a Huawei GT 3 Pro instead. I was sceptic about the bigger size, but got used to it, and I'm very happy with the purchase now. Definetely better sensors and build quality compared to MiBands. Instead of buying a MiBand every year, I'll keep this one for 3 years.
Thank you for this preliminary review of the CN version of Mi Band 8! Although a little dissapointing due to limited data, I hope Xiaomi would give the band 8 a firmware update to further improve the sensors. Can't wait to see your review on the global version next! ⚡️🤘🏼⚡️
I've a Huawei Band 8 and I'm really enjoying the sleep monitoring, as it manages to notice the times I wake up and even records some sound. Unfortunately, I still haven't been able to export the data to make my charts and it's not easy to sync with google fit or strava
Hello Sir! I love your videos! Thank you for your amazing work. Can you please make a review of Huawei Band 8? I'm actually waiting for your reviews before I purchase anything. When it comes to real tech review, I only trust you. 😁
Hi Rob, would you be so kind to review Huawei Band 8? Already available in Europe. There is also a Casio DW-H5600-1 which is a classic converted in smartwatch. Both are very interesting devices! Thanks! 😊
It would be useful if you provided the firmware version you used so we can have it as a reference point. I think it's all software cause the hardware on these watches and fitbit too has been refined and not much changes they know how to do that but messing with how they process/interpret the data makes all the difference. Currently what I see: Mi Fitness 3.19.3 In Watch Settings: Model:M2239B1 Version:1.3.176
You had to review Huawei Band 8 right before this test since it is released globally. This test actually changed my decisions so I aint wait for Mi Band 8 anymore for 60Hz and I will go for Huawei Band 8. Plus, your Mi Band 8 may be faulty otherwise it seems like it has to be improved by Xiaomi somehow.
1) Test the Muse S Gen2: 7 EEG sensors-only, no PPG, sleep tracking to be done versus clinical polysomnography to see if it beats out the unavailable Dreem 2. Disregard the Muse 2 meditation features; focus on the sleep tracking. Do a future test on those if you want. 2) Test the SleepOn Go2sleep SE: fingertip PPG device seeking HSAT/HST approval. Inquiring sleep enthusiasts want to know!
Hello sir... The international (or global) version of the MI BAND 8 is now out and available. I hope youve seen this and are working on a test/review. Thank you.
Still waiting for a single android smart watch that can provide good quality sleep tracking and >0.85 correlation for weightlifting heart rate, looks like the only alternative is strapping a fitbit and a huawei at the same time.
It is a bummer that the sleep tracking is terrible this time. In the mi band 7 it was quite decent, you only found the rem sleep to be really inaccurate with the other stages being really good and in my own personal experience the rem sleep matched what I saw on my two previous fitbits so at least for me it seemed a quite good sleep tracker. I was looking forward to the mi band 8 because the heart rate was quite bad in the mi band 7 so I was really hopeful for the first half of the review. I really hope that they fix the sleep tracking although if you don't retest it we are unlikely to ever know as nobody else does this kind of testing. As for the fitbits I had two, the two died on me in a little over a year and it is easy to find thousands of people complaining about it. It seems that they have been made with manufactured obsolescence in mind. If the fitbits price point was similar to the mi band it wouldn't be so bad, but they are way too expensive for their terrible build quality. So I guess that I will just likely keep mi mi band 7 and hope that 9 is better.
@@skysky4198 I doubt it. I think that the heart rate is an input to the calorie burn algorithm. And heart rate in the mi band 7 sucks, mine has never shown more than 150 bpm even if reaching 200 bpm was common for me, very often when at 140 it would already oscillate between 70 and 140. And I don't even mean lifting weights or doing anything where the arms are in tension, that will make it read 0 or to keep whatever was already reading at the beginning . For me both sleep tracking is important as I have sleep issues and heart rate monitoring too as I have postural orthostatic tachycardia and the heart rate helps me monitor and control the issue. Fortunately it is just barely adequate for that as my resting standing heart rate almost never goes over 140 even at the worst bouts of it.
@@eruiluvatar236 did you find any band which accurately measures HR an sleep tracking? I would love to know your choice. It can help me. Because i am going to buy a band for the first time. Thank you.
I like my Mi6 and won’t update any time soon. Mi8 is just heavier and with nothing new. I mean…. Who really needs games on a Mi band? Or better refresh rate? C’mon are we browsing the internet on the Mi band or what? Useless updates… 0 improvements to accuracy… Good way to ruin a nice device…
Your channel is far better than those people. They make videos just to make money and have no deep knowledge, but you are doing an amazing job and your knowledge is superior to all those people. You know what are you saying and doing.
Hey, danke für den sehr hilfreiche Review. Würdest du ein Update dazu machen da man jetzt den Global Version jetzt kaufen kann. Außerdem auch den Schrittzähler testen? Ich habe bemerkt, dass in den Reviews nicht über den Thermomether gesprochen wird. Seid wir Frauen auch solche Uhren für unserer Mestruationsüberwachung nutzen wäre die Zuverlässigkeit diese Werte für uns sehr hilfreich. In einem Rieview hattest du die Hilfe von eine junge Dame, vielleicht kann sie des öffteren aushelfen. Danke nochmal und tolle Arbeit.
Thank you for this, I've been looking all over for weeks now. I only found someone comparing to a Polar H10, no sleep stage comparisons. Now for the Huawei Band 8 XD
Just got another update that drastically changed the sleep algorithm results. I have no way of testing to see if accuracy increased or decreased. Hopefully the global version comes out soon and it's given another go.
Today I bought band 8. Batrey life is crazy. I wear 5 ours but only 2% falls from 67 to 65%. I tired of charging smart watch. I love band 8 forget about charging and battrey. Performance is also best. ❤❤❤
I was considering purchasing Mi Band to track my sleeping patterns to hopefully find the reason, why I don't wake up rested after 7-8 hours of sleep, but with the data shown in the video, I'd rather abstain - it's not clearly conclusive what happens during the night :(

Have you done health watches like the omron watch or yhe BP doctor watch? These are dedicated to health stats and vital. You should look at one's that are dedicated only to health vitals because there are a lot of seniors would buy them or children that would buy these for their elders. Your reviews are amazing. No one else is doing this.
The Mi Band 9 has been rolled out. I hope you'll review it with other recent releases of other band wearables.

Steps and time are ok 😁😁
I'm waiting for the Hauwei Glucose test 😊
global version is out now. Can't wait for your review!
looking forward to global Version review
please do the Mi Band 9
Could you test Amazfit Band 7? I think it's a better choice for the almost same price.
1:41 Mi Band didn't change the design much since its release in 2014, while Fitbit Luxe was released in 2021.
Wow. I guess I'll keep my Mi Band 7. The 8 is a big step back from the 7 it seems
Do the HUAWEI band 8
This is the best Video i could find to the mi band really well done sir ❤

I had trouble finding the Mi Band 8, but was able to buy it on www.techpunt.nl/en/xiaomi-smart-band-8.html in Europe (no affiliation, no idea about customer service)
Hello! Will you make a review of huawei watch 4? :) I think many people waiting for it :) Greetings from Poland! :) Best scienttics review! :)
Have you done health watches like the omron watch or yhe BP doctor watch? These are dedicated to health stats and vital. You should look at one's that are dedicated only to health vitals because there are a lot of seniors would buy them or children that would buy these for their elders. Your reviews are amazing. No one else is doing this.
You should get a female and senior to participate in your reviews too.
