I've had the mi band 5 for about two years. And if you're getting it to see your step count, heart rate etc, please don't get it. It's really inaccurate. I have a bus ride every day and it increases my steps by like 4000. And it can also measure the heart rate of air, wood or any other object you place it around. It's called a fitness band but can't even live up to its name.
Just want to say thank you I bought the Redmi note 8pro few months ago and recently the mi band 5 with the help of you're reviews and the phone is the best phone I've had in a long time if not ever. The band is too early to tell but I'm happy so far very happy. So thank you and keep going 😁😁
Need to replace my Huawei Watch 2 because the battery hardly lasts a day now. I don't use any of the apps so I just need the time, notifications to pop up and media controls with maybe the weather, would this be a good substitute?
Thanks for great review ! Can you answer just one my question ? PLEASE 🙏 Is it on this new , Band 5, can view ( on weather section ) temperature in every moment od the day or view only for example from 5-15 deegre on day ? On my Band 4 work properly, exatly temp during the day, but now, on my new Band 5, only for example from 4-16 deegre. Where I am wrong, what must I go to change in set up to work properly ? THANKS. PLEASE answer to me 🤩 🙄 👏 Best regards , Jovan.
the mi 5 band is one of the best and affordable fitness watch i ever had. it has a great tracking app that i'm using it everyday as my regular watch and for my cycling workout. it also gives you good detailed information like - heart rate, route tracking of km, calories and has auto pause. what i also like about the band, it not only tracks your speed but also gives you more information on how fast you were in every KM and at the same time tracks your whole route on the gps map in which area were you slow and fast. I find the sleep tracking 'not bad all. the information helps you to know how well you sleep. to sum it up; - it's very affordable - it has almost everything like other expensive fitness watches - great notification function that you still able to read messages from whatsapp and sms. - quick weather check information - the app is amazing and user friendly - magnetic charger ( no need to remove it from the strap.) a big plus + - battery lasts longer 1 week + ( with continuous tracking mode on)
I have my mi band 5 it’s been on charge for a very long time, however when I take it off charge the screen doesn’t want to come on and it is completely brand new any ideas how to fix?
Here in the UAE, the nfc version is the Chinese version and it's usually AED 10 cheaper than the global version,for the disadvantage that the battery drains quicky if nfc is on.
Hi ASBYT can you help I have the new mi band 5 can you tell me how to set it up I have the Chinese version and I cannot get it pair with my iPhone any ideas I have downloaded the mi fit app any help would be gratefully received bud
Hi I got the Xiaomi Mi Band 4 global and the better last up to week on a hard used, on a low used 2 weeks. You can change the rist band to a metal one or what ever you choose verry good watch for the price.. Ohh does the new Xiaomi Mi Band 5 change band to the style you want? 🤔
Just a quick question for the users. I would like to know if the band sync information from exercise mode. I'm asking because the tracker I currently have only sync sleep, steps and Cal. Thanks
If it doesnt come with a charging brick, does that mean that i can use my phones 40 watt fast charging brick or will that affect battery life or even brake the watch?
Great Video! What i would like to know is if the Mi Band 5 allows you to run Stopwatch, Timer, activity on the background. Mi Band 4 locks while using these features which is really annoying.... anyone?
Might be a stupid question but can you answer the phone calls with this band and let's say go to the next song on Spotify? And will Google maps work on it or I'm asking too much?
"double-wristing" for over a year. Mi-band 4 on right wrist. Watch-of-the-day on the left. In fact, I wish there was a way to turn the display of the Mi Band *OFF completely* from your phone.
TLDW Mi Band 4 to 5 isn't an upgrade worth the price, yet. I instead purchased the Xiaomi Mi Watch for £118 after customs fees. It has everything I had hoped the Mi Band 5 would be and a lot LOT more than I ever thought possible, huge telegram community for the watch which is great. I feel Mi Band 5s improvements mostly could have been added to Mi Band 4 I have Mi Band 2,3 and 4 those all felt like enough upgrades and 5 just did not do it for me. I know in China NFC and Voice are functions that global will probably not see.

whats the difference between the global version and the Chinese standard version?
Just got mine today. Actually better than my other smart watches but I'm still learning how to use it. It has way too many features.
I’d say that’s a good thing
Im still using my mi band 4 and not really use the features just as watch on my wrist😅 im here because im intrigued its cheaper now

I have a very important question can you connect to other brands of phones for example huawei
I just loved ur video I just have a doubt that can we change the straps of the band for the same unit??

Excellent video! Informative and helpful. Great production
Good luck on sat fella. Chelsea are going to need it 😉
it will be my first time using the MI band watches. Should I go for the mi band 4 or 5 ?
5 if you are a more active person. 4 if you are just wanting to get a fitness band for alarms, To check time etc
always go with latest versions
Yeah, The are cheap not like Apple making you pay 200$ for a Apple watch and you need a iPhone so latest is the best.
Great unboxing and review... 👌🏾

Should i buy it? I only want to use it as a watch and music controls , any better options?
Up the chels brother 💙
please could someone tell me if this band is accurate measuring the steps or running steps??? thanks
Look at the price
Hi, do you think it will look just fine on small wrist? For example, my wrist is just 13.5cm
My brother gifted me this for Christmas and it's pretty cool and helpful
How to you purchase the China version may I know? Thanks a lot
I purchase mine from Banggood or gearbest.
When does the international version come out? And can you change your music with the Mi Band 5?
yeah you can control your music
yes u can

Does this thing automatically detect sleep and exercise? Or do I have to manually enable it always

If it doesnt come with a charging brick, does that mean that i can use my phones 40 watt fast charging brick or will that affect battery life or even brake the watch?
Is mi band 5 support the nfc and spo2 and amazone alexa feature in indian version or not

Can you connect your phone for GPS on this?
Can you link Strava to it with your phone on you and check your run pace on the bands display?
Not sure but don't think you can. But you can use your phone or the watch to do the work.

Does it have music control?
Is there any difference in the Chinese and Global version aside the language?
Does it do auto detect workout?
I would wear this with a suit. I clearly see nothing wrong with it unless you're nitpicky.
Is the green light on the back of the Mi Band 5 supposed to be blinking?
I'm not sure, I have the mi band 2 ( I know old!) and the green light only blinks if you are measuring your heart rate.
that is a very good review bro TY .
Nice kit 🔥🔥🔥
Good to see it’s a decent watch just got it as a gift from Xiaomi 😂
does it have 24/7 heartbeat, like as soon as u turn it on u can see ur heartbeat
Can you use spotify on the watch itself? Like skip a song or pause it?
Yes, just active the notification in the phone
@ASBYT which smartphone you're using?
Why are there 2 battery indicators on the stock face?
You can change the top and bottom faces to whatever you want
Does it have nfc and spo2?
Can you choose between 24 hour time and standard time?
How high does the timer on the 5 count too? The 4 only goes to 99min99sec.
