When receiving the m365 I was quite skeptical, but the quality of this product and its features changed my opinion a lot! And I’d like to guide you through my learning curve, exploring and testing almost everything about this scooter.
Unboxing the bike leads me to the first top feature - the build quality!
It is one of these 5 things I liked the most! The color is great. It is not black… It is more like a very dark grey color and it is covered in a texture that is a bit softer than the Mijia 4K action camera texture - that gives phenomenal grip and the feeling of something well-built. You will notice that there is a rubberized mat where you step on - brilliant idea, and it protects the material from mud, and also seems to not absorb too much dust and dirt either.
The second top feature that I want to highlight is the Cruize control: I know - something so minor! Which is ABSOLUTELY fabulous. Honestly - I won’t buy a scooter without cruise control in the future.
Smartphone APP - Which is my third favorite top feature. Lightweight, clean, super tidy (it is the well-known Mi-Home app!) and with great control! While you have no speed visibility indication on the scooter itself, the app gives you full amount of data. Including the expected covered range, various temperature and sensor data and so on. You can even upgrade the firmware from it! And some of the features can be enabled or disabled - like the already mentioned cruise control.
Motor efficiency
The Xiaomi M365 electric scooter is capable of achieving the speed up to 25km/h in normal mode. In eco it goes as fast as 18 kilometers per hour. The momentum of the Scooter is given by a brushless motor encased in the front wheel which has a nominal power of 250W and a top (burst) power of 500W, the developed torque is also impressive and it's rated to 16 Nm and can go uphill a 14% incline. Note that these 14% are a subjective measurement - my older scooter was claiming up to 20% incline, however it stops at places where the mijia scooter continues without any troubles. The range is around (achievable) 30 km when ECO mode is used. In mixed environment with many speed variations I usually reach at least 20 kilometers or about 13 miles in normal mode. If you are more constant and are riding in Eco, you will certainly get achievemts close to the estimated maximums, even if you are near the maximum supported weight.
Popularity: Popularity, as my last top headline is more or less subjective. Having tried a number of scooters they have many things in common. Choosing the right one is usually a tough task, and every individual may have different point of view about what is most important. But sometimes simply knowing that you own a device of specific brand could be good enough. And - of course - he Names Xiaomi and Mijia are already well-known for their quality, well-built and good looking products.
Unlike this scooter, other unpopular models that are produced not that massively, have spare parts which are very hard to find. Replacement parts for the m365 are not just easy to find - you can choose from variety of options, and on top of that you have tons of 3rd party customizations.
So tell me: what is your favorite m365 feature?

I remember watching this video around the time I first rode this scooter (I rented a Bird scooter which was a Xiaomi M365). At the time, I had no idea how this scooter would impact my life in such a positive way. I've now put over 500 miles on the Xiaomi Mijia M365. I added the Slime tire sealant to both front and rear tires and this helps prevent flat tires. I really enjoy riding this scooter. This scooter inspires me, and many that see it. Every time I ride the scooter, at least one person will ask me about it, and their level of enthusiasm is truly a joy to experience. We are doing many experiments with our scooter, we have add a solar trailer that allows us to extend the range of the scooter during the day time, and we are working on ways of charging the scooter on demand, after the sun has gone down. We are learning so much.
It was videos like yours, that help me to know, that this was a scooter I want to buy. It was the best five hundred dollars, I've ever spent on transportation and hobbies. Thank you for a great video!
Hey, it is so great to read this comment. And I will pin it as the top one - I believe more people need to find out about this new trend and the efficiency we get with these scooters.
Reading your post makes me feel like it's written for me :-) I now avoid traffic jams, and the feeling of the wind on my body is so awesome.
This summer was quite rainy here and I only have half of your mileage, but ride it almost every day.
What I like the most is the "fuel" cost :-) Around 20-30 cents for full charge. makes around 1 cent per kilometer. Wow! ;)
I just bought mine yesterday and am really curious as to see your back up power sources to keep it charged. I'd like to see your builds do you have videos posted?
Yes, our most recent videos detail our solar powered scooter project.
We also show how we are incorporating a backup generator that has been said to produce zero emissions.
Congratulations on the purchase of your Xiaomi Mijia M365 Scooter!
@Tech4All Thank you so much for sharing how our comment impacted you, and for pinning it for more to see :) Also happy to see more of the world going electric for the betterment of our health, environment, and happiness. Hope you're continuing to enjoy your scooter!
True Zero Emissions You made the video already with the back🆙 power etc?
Just bought mine 3 days ago (pro) trust me it’s really amazing I love its fun.
Trusting you very very much! Happy riding! 😊
Tech4All thanks 😊
I will get the 1S
What’s the difference?
6 days since I bought this scooter.
Im f.. Loving it. Seriously !
Know exactly what you mean!!!
m365 pro is much better. I have it, and I am happy with it.
nice video michael, informative and fun to watch. plus free tour of the town.
That was quite a small but, but I promise to show a bit more with the next M365 video. 😎
I got my pro 365 today. I'm so happy. It's working like a charm!
Yes, yes, yes, yes! COngratulations and happy riding! 🙃🚴
@@TechMishka thank you! Your review really helped with deciding 😀
I have mine pro now for days and I ride it every day. I really don't wanna do the power increase hack because of lotta heat being hard on motor and battery
I got mine today love it 😍so easy to use 👍😊
i love that scooter...iam sure i will neaver leave my house agan without.
Same here! 😎😇👍
I'd say that the recharging ability is genious
I have a OneWheel XR electric skateboard which is amazing and I love it. I'm looking at one of these scooters for the wife. Thanks for the video!!
Most welcome! :-) I believe your wife will like it a lot :D
Scott I feel you. OneWheel+ here for my use and M365 in the mail for the missus. Gearbest has decent offer at the moment.
"I was quite skeptical because of many reasons". That really clarified things.
If that is you asking "what are these reasons", I may say that they are related to my previously bad experience with some XIaomi products, as well as some issues I've seen about the scooter. :-)
@@TechMishka Now that clarified thing. For real. :) FYI: mine is on the way now. Thank you for the review.
@@jtalexandre Hey, I am very happy for you!
I was not able to ride for almost a month, and today was the first day where I managed to get through two battery cycles. Pretty awesome :-)
enjoy using yours! Fingers crossed to get it sooner.
The funny thing is there are a lot of negative media reports coming out. They focus on injury that these "menacing machines" cause to pedestrians and riders alike.
Then the next segment, which has nothing to do with scooters or electric Skateboards, they talk about how to save the environment, recycling, and how good it is to lower your footprint.
The hypocrisy is ridiculous with these naysayers.
Yeah, media can be nasty and the desire to control the masses and impact with weird statements is a serious issue. Not too many sources you can trust nowadays.
One thing I agree - in many countries authorities need to place proper regulations about electric scooters and increase the awareness about that. In many European countries scooters are not allowed on bike lanes, and neither they are on pave-walks or streets. Which sort of makes it illegal to ride. Not that anyone is adhering that.
Tech4All Yeah.
When cars were new they used to kill people a lot because they never looked before walking across a street. The media back then had the same arguments. They wanted cars to not be a thing and couldn't see it's potential for progression. Until the term Jaywalker was used to retrain the public using sidewalks and crosswalks. Back then a Jay was a derogatory term. And nobody wanted to be a jay.
Feel sorry for anyone actually named Jay. lmao
I can only imagine how those people would have stalled human progress if they got their way. Because when scooter devices become the norm then that opens a city to a whole other level. Industry and businesses can build around the fact people can travel farther, and faster, within a city.
Also maybe some day we'll have safer bike lanes instead of having to share the road with vehicles.
Anyway, just my rant and ramble.
Wow - learned something new! :-) Let's hope that day will be sooner!
@yakyakyak69 I don't believe what I see on any side or network related to any part of politics. All of it is equal trash and sophism.
It sucks that the huge majority of accidents is happening with unexperienced, stupid people on rentals
Hello, thank you for the amazing review and for all tips. I have kind of general question. I am also from Bulgaria, Sofia and you know what it the condition of our roads here, except the places where there is a bike track. Do you find the Scooter convenient for Sofia. Also I waned to know approximately how long I will be able to use it before the battery need to be replaced with brand new, if you have any idea ? For me personally the advantages making me want to buy the scooter and not a bike are the size and preventing me getting sweaty on my way to work :) I do have a car, but I would like to be more environment friendly and to save some money from fuel
Hey Katrin, thank you for your great questions.
I believe that we share similar needs - I also prefer not to drive, and the scooter is a wonderful way of moving around in a more ecological and non-sweaty way.
I am still on my way reaching 1000km, and so far it feels good. The battery is one year old, and yesterday I managed to ride 16 kilometers with around 35% left.
I had a punctures, and after the third one I've switched to solid tires - and that's the best decision I've taken so far :D
Not sure about the battery longevity - with proper maintaining it should be good for at least another 1-2 years. Also, the M365 has a lot of spare parts that are easy to find.
There is a good M365 group for Bulgarian users - check "m365 Bulgaria" in Facebook 😎😇
Forgot to mention a few words about the roads ... - riding is not as pleasant as in some other cities...
Hi Katrin . I bought my M365 two years ago, the battery is still strong, mind you i always plug it in for charging after riding so i guess the batteries have been conditioned well.
I doubt you will be able to replace the battery... It's not their business model... You'll have to buy another scooter...
i have my scooter(Pro one) since september have done 500+km on it , Amazing , but had 2flats and fitting the new tires is a pain in the ass + kinda expensive
tho would def recommend!
Wishing you flat-less 2020! 🙂👍
I go buy this today
Nice video man!
Thanks man. Awesome nickname :-)
mine @ cryptodaddys.com boi??!? KEEP STACKING!
woow good jooob love u frm pakistani
Браво момчета, супер видео!
Ехеее, благодаря Никола! :-) Ще се радвам от време на време да те виждам из коментарите.
Ако скутерът ти е интересен, има доста добра българска фейсбук група за M365.
Tech4All разбира се, че ще ме виждаш, наскоро открих канала, и започнах малко по малко да гледам клипчета, ще ги изгледан всичките. А коя е точно фейсбук групата, как да е намеря?
Ехаа, много, много се радвам!!! Ето това е групата - web.facebook.com/groups/361019177736126/
Excellent review on this scooter, and an equally informative follow up review after one year. Would you consider reviewing the pro scooter?
Hey Joey, thanks for the note!
The Pro scooter is a slightly better version and I like it too.
I will more likely review the Ninebot Max - because to me it is a more serious upgrade. Not sure when - weather is not great, and I still lack battery life experience. But we will get there 😎
Is upgrading speed firmware bad for scooter?
In recent reviews of this scooter on Amazon, you will see a problem mentioned by several recent purchasers (including me): there is a clicking, knocking noise that seems to be coming from the front wheel. It varies with the speed you are going. Would love to learn from you or your viewers whether you’ve experienced this issue, whether you have either an explanation or a fix, and even whether the problem is really a problem or perhaps just a tolerable nuisance. Thanks.
Hi George and thank you for pointing to this issue. I have seen multiple users reporting the same condition in the facebook group here:
facebook.com/groups/1590258151025293/?fb_dtsg_ag=Adw7Ooer8UTuJ2ndqkCzar8ORprs7DjzcexTt5_VogaEOA%3AAdzTm4pzn_AHjsqjPplGg6oCTQ7-33L_eDzq0v5BEjX7UA
I have never had it. Looks like this issue affects mostly folks that have switched to custom firmwares. Have you?
- Is the noise there with both speed settings?
- Does it change the intensity with different weather conditions and temperature deviations
- have you noticed any difference with changing the tyre pressure?
Hopefully it is a "feature" that will get queter in time.
Agree there is always clicking noise at front wheel. 2nd problem the fender at rear wheel very flimpsy. not ideal to fold. Screws of rear fender cannot hold on due to weight of the unit. Lastly, is the very small hook that connects the handle post and the step board. This hook of my unit already snapped. Good thing i was not in full speed. Just bought my unit last april 2018. 😤😤
Mine arrives today!
So hopefully when reading this reply you've already enjoyed your maiden riding. 🙃
one of the less known features is overheating protdction. Never noticed it before unlocking the top speed, now it flashes the temperature LED once the motor gets too hot(after an impressive 1 hr+ constant ride)
I've only heard about its existence and now you confirm a real use-case when it appears. Good to know it's there!
If you run out of battery charge can you use it like a kick-scooter or does it engage some form of resistance while turned off?
It will work as a kick-scooter, yes. But don't expect to charge the battery that way :-) It will take you a lot of miles to get a few percent up.
Does anyone know what the QR code on the front wheel is for? Reason I ask wife ran over the front wheel of scooter. Need to know if I buy a used front wheel will it work or is each wheel coded to only work on existing electronics like the dashboard or motherboard.
Of this video I like how the bike paths are built with a platform and a yellow pole to prevent cars from parking. It is an effective system that allows you to build them quickly and easily. I understood by reading the comments that the city where you shot the video is Sofia.
Yup, they are in Sofia. An year later - only part of them are still there, a big quantity is broken. Looks like this is the only way to effectively restrict cars driving in that lane and to prevent parking.
In Rome, where I live, this system does not exist, but it is an excellent method. I should go to the municipality to show it.
Are the posts coming out of the yellow platform made of iron or plastic?
@@stefanobism Hm, never really tested that. They look like plastic to me.
Ok! Thanks for the information
Helpful video, I am looking to get one soon. One question: Is there anything stopping someone else from just riding away on it when you park it outside? Is there a bluetooth lock on the app like the Bird has? Or do I need a physical lock?
Hi Spencer, and thank you for this question.
There is a "lock" option which is enforced via the smartphone App - guess it is similar to what Bird has implemented - and it makes it very difficult to move the device.
To be on the safe side - maybe a physical lock is not a bad idea.
Thanks 👍🙂
Always welcome Mitt navn Mitt det og
whats the best sites you've found for battery mods for the m365 , i need some extended range due to me flashing the firmware to get max speed. any info in appreciated
CryptoDaddys - no idea about that. Such big packs of batteries are not easy for transportation nowadays. CHeck something domestic - there are people that do custom batteries on behalf.
Can i change the battery and carry extra battery? and can i carry vertical especially to Subway train?
The battery is not hot-swappable. Sure - it is replaceable, however it takes some time.
There are some options for additional/external pack, but I don't like them too much - they increase the weight and are bulky.
As for vertical carrying - yes, it is possible. There is no lock on the rear tire though,
The best product for this scooter is XBoard. Absorbs shock and increases standing area.
Just saw some images of XBoard. Have you tried one on your own?
Looks like a great scooter indeed with impressive features 👍
Hey man, haven't seen you for a while around, so cool to hear from you!
Should be close to winter on your side, right?
As for the scooter - yeah - riding it is so much fun. Hot and shiny outside and I will be riding a lot this summer.
tech4all yes my friend we are in the middle of autumn right now.. Can't complain.. Very nice sunny weather atm... Perfect warm temperature not to hot.. Best time of year 👍 hope all is well, I myself have been busy with my work 6days a week atm and still making content on my channel regularly
6 days a week! That is a lot. And I know very well what you are talking about. It is finally a long weekend here (we have Monday off) and I will finally catch up watching my fav channels :-) So certainly "see" you soon :D
tech4all have a great long weekend bro 🍻😀👍
Did you flash the modified firmware that removes the speed limit? What is the range with it?
No, I did not. Quite happy with the standard firmware, and on top of that I read about complications, weird sounds, defective motors and so on in the facebook groups, which at the moment is enough to keep me away from it :-)
Based on other people's feedback - the range is similar to the stock. Difference is the thrust you have , especially on lower battery levels.
Nice shirt mate I grew up in Exmouth
Nice area! Never been there myself, seen lots of photos though.
Does anyone has experience with locking a scooter to a bike stand? can you turn on the power, or can you lock this??
You can lock the motor on the app. It wont drive unless you release it. If you still wanted to know after a year
J.B.B. Entertainment I just use a Kryptonite U lock, locking the scooter frame to a fixed pole or bike stand. I never use the software lock. The key is to park it in a well seen area and not for longer than a couple of hours.
I rate as good, ya good review man
Ya good man to stop by ans say something nice. Thanks a lot :-)
Nice video. How about going uphill. How steep can it go?
That depends a lot on the personal weight and the level of battery freshness. usually if battery is above 60% it can climb pretty serious heights with 90-95kg load. Going below 50% battery will make you "support" the process on a more regular basis :D
Hey i just got a chance to buy a freego es-08s v1.9 for €299 should i do it or should i save up for the m365 and maybe put a lcd on it later can you Please make a review of the freego since there are only ads and spanish review on TH-cam
You can get it, try it and let us know how it feels. Looks great on photos.
Are the Birds you can rent more powerful than this one you can buy or are they the same? I quite like the Birds and have tried them.
I think they are exactly the same. If they are faster, then it is most likely a firmware optimization.
I can't say for sure as the "Birds" are on the other side of the globe for me :)
Nice video. The "Mi-Home" app is a lifestyle app, is this correct? Thank you
Not sure if category is "lifestyle" - but yeah - it is a gateway for most of the MI products, especially those done by MiJia.
Out of curiosity, what angle it can climb? Can it do bul.Cherni Vrah?
Здрасти Ники - ако батерията е свежо заредена и си под 95 килограма - да. Абсолютно.
Чувствай се поканен ето тук - доста повече хора с опит: facebook.com/groups/361019177736126
which is better Segway ES4 or Xiaomi M365. pls let me know, thank you
The ES4 has greater range, so I guess this is what most people will prefer to get.
@tech4all Thanks a lot for the review, im 1.90m and 95 kg and couldent find any info of real tests done with higher wieght and height. going to get myself one now ! ty
:-) Almost the same "specs" on your side. If you are getting it from a local store - make sure to go and try the height first. Being 1.90 means you are right on the edge of riding comfortably.
And what happened?
Is it advisable to use during rainy seasons?
I have used it in rain and humid conditions, the basic bottom cover has not yet to fail. Some of the screws might get a lil rusty if you leave the scooter wet and wait it to dry slowly
Make sure you cover the top as some water can get underneath the button and reach the electrical parts.
Hey, fantastic video! I’m really considering purchasing this, but I have a few questions beforehand.
A) Is the battery replaceable?
B) How easy is it to replace tires if needed? I am thinking of using solid tires instead of air.
C) Have you ever ridden it in the rain?
D) How has maintenance for the scooter been so far?
E) How far have you been able to travel? I live in NYC so I can see myself using this a lot
Thank you, hope to hear from you soon!
Hi Moe Kro. Let's see how far we can help:
A) Yes. Expensive though :-)
B) It is rather difficult. Best practice is to heat up the solid tires in order to make them more flexible. You may beed a second pair of hands.
C) Yes - and it is fine. I tend to use lower speeds and avoid too flat surfaces as it can be quite slippery. Guess solid tires are even more slippery.
D) For 400km - just checking the tire pressure and adding the hinge mechanism enhancement from curiousjoe.se
E) I try to use it every time the weather is good and the distance is no further than 15-20KM (12-12 miles).
If you are in NYC, then there should be the BYRD scooters - they are based on the m365. Try them.
Tech4All Thanks for taking the time to reply! I’m going to wait until I score a good price before getting one. Again, thanks for the help!
@@Crazybot2 Hey, most welcome.
Black Friday is just around the corner :-)
do you know how to cut on the flashlight on the scooter? thanks
Short press of the button should do that.
that's pretty impressive! I never knew Xiaomi had such a wide range of products...
They have bought or "invested" in so many companies, that it is unbelievable. If you live in China you can have almost everything branded as xiaomi. Probably this one is much more easier to ride than the boosted board :D
It's a product of Ninebot which is a Chinese company that acquired Segway. Ninebot is partially owned by Xiaomi that's why they are allowed to use the Xiaomi brand.
Question:- how long does it take to fully charge it. How far can it go in a full charge.
Hi! It takes around 4-5 hours. The range depends on many factors, including outdoor weather condition, wright, style of riding and the speed you want to maintain. Ever since it is colder I get 15-20KM. In the summer it was more like 18-25.
Lighter people will ride longer :-) I am around 90kg.
Today my xiaomi m365 arrived. But to my suprise the 4 (3mm) neck alen bolts are missing. So it is safe to replace them with any other bolts with the same dimensions? And please anyone knows exactly the dimensions of these bolts? Thanks in advance
Pity I am on the move these days and can't quite help. Try to find replacement bolts in Aliexpress or ebay - they often list the exact dimensions.
Thanks
Welcome
Swagtron in the U.S. has picked up a clone and is selling it as the Swagger 5. Only one review on TH-cam so far. It'll be interesting to see how many M365 mods -- if any -- apply to it too.
Hi Mike - if you have the chance trying it, then you may be able to share with us :-)
I am also curious whether we can flash the mijia firmware and what actually happens with updates on 3rd-party scooters. Could be that there is a difference... For example - the chinese edition supports the ninebot app, but mine - which is the EU version - doesn't. So there may be some restrictions...
Safety issue is the hook latch in front. Made of alum not fit to endure severe stress from steering column.
There are some addons you can try to reduce the impact from that issue.
Range is good! How long does it take to charge? I may have missed that in your review.
I forgot to include that... It takes around 4-5 hours. No fast charging :D
Hey can i ask u, what the speed and the battery km on it , i will buy one and I don’t have information about it , and my weight is 63 kg , how much u think the speed and the km , i hope u reply to me fast
Check Xiaomi's website for the latest info. Usually top speed is 25kmh, range is up to 25-50 kg.
do you know what PSI you have to fill the tires to?
If you are around 90kg - keep them around 4
A company called Bird in CA uses these and its worth like 2 billion, so you can always get spares these are in mass production !
Yup :-) I've recently seen those given to police officers in some states :D Wondering whether they are using modified firmware for extra speed...
How many miles will scooter go for and is it 30 mile an hour fast? Thanks.
You may reach 18 miles, and speed is about 15.5 mph.
KM MILES PER HOUR convertsumo.com/43-kmh-to-mph/
Haha loving that Exmouth T-Shirt is it from Exmouth I’m devon by any chance if so I’m not that far away from ther
Thanks mate! It's just the T-Shirt - I am a bit more to the south and to the east - in Sofia, Bulgaria.
Warmest regards to Devon.
Are these wheels modular? As compared to a carbon fiber design, the front wheel requires a full disassembly of the upper chassis, it's highly tedious, I am hoping for something simpler. And does this compare to the speeds to that of an Eco Rico?
Hi Logan and thank you for the excellent questions you are pointing to. Looking at reviews it looks like replacing flat tire won't require too much of disassembly. Never happened to me, so it is hard to give an estimation based on just watching other people's videos.
As for the speed - it is not as fast as the Eco Reco - the motor is 250-500W (and Eco Reco usually pointo to 750W), and speed is about 5-6 mph slower. Range is comparable and very much depends on the riding style and intensity.
What I like better are the larger wheels - makes riding experience more comfortable. On the other side - the Eco Reco models have adjustable height and seem to be more compact.
There's a TH-cam video showing the front tire being changed. Bring much strength!
Would you please post a link to the video?
There are several to see: toogl.es/#/search/change%20m365%20tire
Lbs is pronounced "pounds" incase you didn't know. Great vid 👍
Thanks mate - I didn't realize that at the time of making the video. Will be correct from now on :-)
Tip tie a camera strap to the handle bar and base of the post so you can carry the scooter like a shoulder bag. So much easier to carry when indoors
Awesome idea, I will try that. Cause carrying it is not an easy exercise :-) Especially for longer distances.
what do you mean when you write "base of the post". Do you have a photo?
are the flat tires better I would love to use the wide tires.
I am now using solid tires and they are not that smooth, but I have no more flats 👍😎
Good video my friend. I've only had my scooter for a month and after doing some research about the loose hinge mechanism problem I bought a shim that's been designed (via 3D printer) to fix the looseness in the hinge. You might want to check out a video on a mod kit created by Curious Joe (everything in it works great). My only gripe about the scooter is that I wish it had some type of suspension built in and that the handlebars could be folded when in the collapsed position.
My thoughts exactly (about the folding handlebars =) ).
And last week I've ordered the Curious Joe's pack and am eagerly waiting to see how it will fit.
And hey - thanks a ton for that summary! are there any other ideas to suggest? Maybe I am missing some mod :D
I like how you can remove the speed limit but I'm not going to mess with it due to it being such an expensive item. One more thing I did change was the little rubber cap on the rear fender (which fell off after one week). I bought a red one also from Curious Joe and it's much thicker than the original (I put some silicone on it so it would never fall off) and it not only looks better but locks the handle to the rear fender even better than the original. That's all I'm changing for now.
Be careful when first inserting the shim and locking the hinge. I used the thinnest shim and to lock it I had to use a bit of force. However it was so tight that once I released the hinge handle the hinge was so tight that it wouldn't release open. I had to remove the hinge bolt to get it to collapse open. Then I adjusted the little piece of metal that grips over the hinge when closing so that its tight but not too much and releases open when needed. No play anymore. The clear protective film for the power button really works well also.
Thanks for the tips! :-)
Guess it is too late for the protective film, as I already have a few scratches there :(
I have the m365 Pro, I get way too much attention on it, feels amazing to ride. 😂
I've ridden it over 150 miles, and no problems with the handlebar making rattling noises, but I did puncture my rear wheel, but that's only my fault, the pressure in in the rear wheel was way too low, it should be 50 PSi for someone weighing 80kg but I had mine lower than 20psi 🤦🏻♂️ 🤦🏻♂️
After repairing the inner tube it hasn't punctured again, everything is perfect! 😤😍💛
Great summary! Have a lot of fun riding it, and wish you less punctures! 🙂
You changed tube to new or repaired that punctured? I saw many comments that changing punctured tube is really hard.
Hey man i'm looking to buy one of these to get to and from work, but i have a couple questions if you or anyone here might be able to answer
Are replacement parts difficult to apply? such as a new battery or even the new tires that help against flat tires?
What exactly is echo mode?
How long roughly does it usually take to fully charge?
thanks if you manage to answer any
Hey man, I am very, very happy to see questions, and even happier if I can help somehow 😎
- the replacement parts are relatively easy to apply. I am not an engineer and was able to replace a flat tire - so guess the rest is not that hard. Also - because the model is quite famous, there are many tutorials about literally everything.
- pardon my English - perhaps I am pronouncing it too bad - it is Eco mode - a mode which consumes less energy. It reduces the motor power and limits the maximum speed to 18 km/h.
- about 5-6 hours
@@TechMishka Thanks mate I appreciate it! If I could ask one more thing, do you know a more official site to order them from? I see a lot of sites selling them but some of them seem abit untrustworthy I'm not sure if there's a go to website that I could go to that delivers to ireland
@@TheFrosstitute I got mine from Gearbest and - the link should be pointing to the original one. Look for the EU version, as it comes with english manual and two extra tires. You may also check for an official reseller in Ireland.
@@TechMishka awesome i see it now, do you know how i'm supposed to know if its EU though? The one in the link says shipping will be around 35-45 days but thats the most i can see about the shipping
@@TechMishka nvm i found it haha, thanks again for your help buddie
This was challenging with many signs in English... My guess: Sofia, Bulgaria.
You are absolutely right! :-) In fact Sofia is much more challenging, because it lacks signs in English. But yeah - this is where I shoot most of my vids.
Actually, english is quite good.. :) I guess Sofia as well, I understand it from the park and postbank etc. :) Also I have a question, what are the comments when you drive this thing in Sofia? I'm planing to buy one next week from Plesio, so your comments are important for me :)
Defo Sofia South Park I took my board here last year and skated at that park great spot for a scooter not so great for an E-board!!! Beware the fountain area really slippery lol!
Especially after rain! :-)
Sofia, Bulgaria! Уникален клип, браво!
Day 2 love it
Cheers to that! 🙂
Hi, can you tell me which app you used? Thanks
It is Xiaomi Home
Thank you!
How long? will fit in the rear cargo my 2018 Honda Accord?
Yes, it will. Fits in much smaller cars.
If you lock the motor and have the scooter online does it make it waste battery
That I haven't tested.
Couple of issues with video but overall good review:
1. you mention an issue with creaking but don't go into very much detail about the issue.
2. You mention about a 3d printed part that could help fix the issue stated above but fail link
3. Yo mention about a facebook group but also do not link it. (i have been to a couple of different ones and resorted to just googling the CFW)
4. You show off the included extra tyres in the video unboxing but make no reference to them or how easy they are to change.
5. the link you did post to the gearbest shop for this scooter doesn't not show if the extra tyres are included, did you use this link or were you sent it for a review? other words do you know if the link provided will include the extra tyres?
i do have some other questions, you sound European (sorry if incorrect) but were you charged any extra taxes from the shipping and is it likely to have any?
How long was the shipping for you to receive the scooter?
Would you recommend it as a daily city commuter vehicle over for example an electric bike taking cost in to consideration?
Hey, let me respond to some of your questions:
1. A lot of folks are complaining of it... I was planning to make a second video about the parts that found online to reduce the creaking. Never happened so far :-) Parts used are from curiousjoe.se
2. Will fix the link - here is his website - www.curiousjoe.se/
3. facebook.com/groups/xiaomi.m365.electric.scooter/
4. Tires are not easy to change. Require patience and a bit of strength. If you happen to try putting hard tires it is even worse and most people recomment micro-waving them in order to soften before installation.
5. If you get the international versions, extra tires are included. if you get the chinese one - then no.
I am European indeed. And at the time receiving the scooter it arrived from EU warehouse, which will imply no import taxes. Gearbest have a few locations across Europe and if they have it on stock, although a bit more expensive - that is perhaps the better option.
I cannot recall how long the delivery took. Right now I have a friend waiting for his one, and it is ordered from the company that imports it (not gearbest) - and there is a waiting list for almost 2 months in advance...
I use that one as a daily driver and totally enjoy riding it - maybe it changed the world of electric scooters.
Feel free to post more questions if you have :-)
What apps are you using?
I like a lot the m365 tools.
Whats it like on hills whats the gainment my weigh is 90 kg cheers
|Great with fresh battery, not easy if battery level is below 60% 👍
Given your weight and height, I'd say the Pro version of this scooter would be better for you. I don't think it was out at the time you did this video, but it is now, and it's bigger, taller, stronger, and has a more powerful motor and more battery capacity...
Very true! I also thought that, and now I think that the Ninebot Max will be an even better match. 🙃
The firmware mod only works on android phones for some reason
How do u make it faster
Use this tool: m365.botox.bz/
I live in rainy country how waterproof is it?
You should secure the top area around the button, and make sure not to ride if it's heavily raining.
If the scooter is stolen are you able to locate it via the app?
Probably not at it connects via Bluetooth and once out of range then it lost
Can I use it in trolley mode?
sure, that works. THere is a bit of resisrtance because of the motor, but overall you can absolutely do that.
Hey,you are from Bulgaria right?Cuz i know this park u drived the scooter its called "Южен парк"
Yeah, I am - and indeed - a lot of scenes from the South Park 😇👍
Experience with higher height and higher weight??
The weight won't be much of an issue, but the height may make you feel uncomfortable and may eventually result in back aches.
Good
What is the maximum speed of the sccoter
25km/h
@@TechMishka ok thanks
how to unlock the speed of Xiaomi M365 in the app? thank you
You cannot do it from the official app.
Wow, quality cardboard!
😎
The better quality the cardboard the less damage to the scooter during transist so a very valuable comment!
How fast woult i go whit no speed lock whit weight 36kg
Hard for me to say. But with that weight I wouldn't ride that crazy fast.
I am updating firmware version so after its not working how i fix that now 🥺🥺
Better bring it to a repair shop. They usually have tools to flash the proper firmware.
Can you still use it like a normal scooter if the battery is flat?
Yes, but there is a bit more motor resistance.
@@TechMishka thanks
Do anyone can tell that this scooter is convinient for high mountainous region
Not really... It will feel most of the bumps; the larger tires - the better.
What is the name of the app?
It's Mi Home. I very much recommend using M365 Tools from Play Store - gives more info.
any idea what to do if I can't remember my password? I can't login with the mi home app
Yeah, there is a way to reset it. Try this one - th-cam.com/video/srCnhD64L0s/w-d-xo.html
Does anyone know what the charging time, reach in km and average lifespan in km?
Also how does it lock? Through the app? If you rent one with Bird is the locking mechanism then through their app?
Thanks.
"it supports a maximum range of 30km when carrying a 75kg rider (15km/h uniform) which is great considering the size. And it only needs about 5 hours to fully charge - even faster than a smartphone. " - Just read that. Is that your experience as well?
So another question: Does anyone have data on how many KWh per km?
Hi Andreas,
The charging time is around 5-6 hours.
On average, a person like me - 188cm, 90kg (6.17 feet, 198 pounds) I get around 25km in eco mode and around 16-20 in regular mode. Depends a lot on how often you stop and start - this can drastically reduce the distance.
As for Bird - I don't quite know how the locking works. Should be via their app, but I'd rather ask them directly.
Thanks man, sounds about the same as the numbers I found. I'm really curious to find out what the expected lifespan in km is though.. so if anyone has data on that I'd be very interested.
The usual life of these batteries is around 500-1000 cycles. And that all very much depends on how you charge, store and discharge them.
There are some folks with 2000+ kilometers already. And knowing that the american company Bird is using them for scooter sharing means a lot.
Can someone help me find the xioami app please
It is called Xiaomi Home or Mi Home.
Are you using modded speed? Also, I believe one of the top 5 features is that the scooter is water resistant. Many e-scooters out there are not
Thanks Peter, a very good addition! Just had a nice ride during a snow storm last week 😎 Was quite fun.
I am not using any modded firmwares, quite happy with the current performance.
BTW - the Pro model has just been announced, looks like price will be a bit higher, and there are a few differences.
@@TechMishka I've had my Xiaomi M365 for 1.5 years and put 1000 miles on it. My next scooter will be an upgrade to the Inokim Light 2:

How fast can u make it go after mods?
Some people have reached speeds up to 35km/h. It depends a lot on your weight and the terrain.
In most countries in Europe it is forbidden to go above 25km/h (Sweden is no more than 20). I believe in the USA it should be below 18mph. And honestly - going that fast may be scary and a bit dangerous.
with reasonable settings in the Custom Firmware I max out at 19 mph (about 30 km/h) that with fully charged battery. More realistic is 18mph with most battery conditions. You could push the power settings in the firmware but you risk shortening the life of the drivetrain. Also safety on the scooter drops significantly as the speed is increased so I'm happy with the current speed limit.
The Mi365 doesn’t bring a speedometer, right?
PatricioM No. But the PRO does.
Theoretically there is a speedometer, but not visible in real time unless you have a smartphone mount to watch the app. Easiest way to get notified about the speed is to use a smartwatch with GPS feature.
If it available in India in Indian currency if yes, price please.
Fuck yeah, bro
I have never been on a scooter of any kind so basic things are unknown to me.
a. Do I need to have already an acquired balance "body knowledge" to get on there and start going (that is just like riding a bicycle)?
b. I don't need fast speeding. How do I adjust the speed and keep myself in low values (~ 15 km/h)?
c. I understand that I have to pull the brake to stop (stopping by putting your feet down is prohibited, right?). Is this like an instant process (the stopping one)?
d. Do I have to buy a helmet or it is practically safe at low speeds?
e. I can read about people complaining about flat tyres. Is it easy to find spare parts?
f. What is the cruise control function? What does it do and why do I need it?
Whoever knows pls answer. Too novice to know here.
Hey, a few very good questions. Let me try to give some good answers:
a. Yes - you will need to use your body balance. Not as difficult as riding a bike. Perhaps between a bike and a skateboard.
b. Using the eco mode will keep you up to 18 km/h (and as a 90-kg person I usually get up to 15 km/h). Using the lever you can adjust the speed and you can run it at low values. The scooter has the feature for automatically maintained the speed, should you ride at the same speed for more than 5 seconds. It is a brilliant feature!
c. You can stop by putting your feet down, however given the weight of the scooter, this is rather inconvenient and you may injure yourself. The time to completely stop depends on the speed. It is not only the rear brake - the scooter also uses the resistance of the electric motor and also the front wheel contributes to the process
d. Yes, better have a helmet at any time! It is safer.
e. spare parts are easy to find. Keep the tires at the right pressure level to reduce the risk of getting a flat tire. There already are plenty of hard-models, but they are not pleasant to ride - feels bumpier. But spare parts are easy to find. it is one of the most popular scooter models ever.
f - the cruise control is the function desribed in "b". It allows you to maintain a certain speed for a prolonged period without having to press the lever. Perhaps my favorite feature :-)
Hopefully these answers hep you a bit. Please - if there's anything else, do not hesitate to ask!
You are so kind. Thanks a 1000000 times for your time!

What is the name of the app?
Mi Home. You can also use M365 Tools for Android.
But will it blend? That is the question
🙃 We may need hell of a blender!
