Best smartwatch xiaomi Smart Band 9 ?
INTRODUCTION
The new xiaomi band 9 is finally here
let’s check it out inside the Box we do
get a manual a regular USB charger like
this and the watch itself in the
packaging and let’s check it out so this
is what it looks like basically as you
can see it’s extremely slim device and
the body this time is full metal and it
actually feels pretty decent.
Design
it looks on my wrist and as you can see
it it’s actually very very slim device
but if you got small wrists like mine
then it’s actually pretty much perfect
on the back of it we do get plenty of
adjustments and this is the same
mechanism as on the previous bands the
same one uh I’m not particularly a huge
fan of this button uh style uh like
fixation because these often break and
yeah I really think shomi should change
the design finally to something better
and this is what it looks like on the
back as you can see we do get quick
release for the straps.
Size
size comparison to the Samsung Galaxy F3
as you can see on the Samsung you do get
way better screen and also the strap
closing mechanism on the Samsung is way
better than on the xiaomi When comparing
Display
to the previous band 8 we do get
actually quite good Improvement when it
comes to the screen you can see it just
so much brighter and I think it’s uh
literally increased in the brightness
two times we can clearly see that the
brightness is really good on this band n
as you can see even direct sunlight it’s
still very good and on the band.
Battery Life
also do get huge Improvement in the
battery life xiaomi actually claims that
we can expect to get literally three
weeks of battery life from this band and
that’s completely crazy on the previous
ones already it was quite good at almost
2 weeks so this is probably the longest
lasting Fitness tracker in the Market at
at the moment also this new band n
Water Resistance
actually does have quite good water
resistance as well and as you can see we
do get exercise modes for lot of water
sports as you can see here so it’s
properly waterproofed and you can take
it along with you when you actually go
for a swim okay let’s explore this watch
Features & Menus
and actually see what it can do so when
we swipe down like this we can get
access to our notifications when you
swipe like this up you can get all your
stats different workouts activity
records uh like training stuff you can
see your heart rate this does have this
new Vitality score as well so that’s
quite impressive as well as blood oxygen
measurement it can track your sleep as
well and it can also even track your
stress as well so that’s quite
impressive obviously you do get weather
calendar your alarms by the way this
watch is a Chinese version so as you can
see if you are actually in the China you
can use this watch to pay V so this
watch also come with NFC however again
this will only work if you are actually
in China if you are in states or Europe
this really won’t work even if you get
the NFC version so let’s see what’s more
uh so you can see quite a lot of other
things you can listen to your music not
maybe like control your music I guess so
uh camera remote time
flashlight and this is what the
flashlight basically looks like okay
when we compare to Samsung you can see
just how tiny the screen on the xiaomi
band actually is also another way how
the Samsung and also the new Hua band 9
is actually better than the the xiaomi
band is it they do have button here as
well so on this device we do not get any
buttons and the side button really is
very useful on these watches so really
show me in the next version please give
us a side button as well okay then when
we swipe like this we can get uh like
access to your Do Not Disturb mode
basically and also your settings um so
you can see what you can actually
customize here so you do get quite a lot
of options here as well also if you
click and hold on the main watch face we
can uh change to a different watch face
so so you can see it comes with quite a
lot of pre-installed watch face as well
so and all of the mech look pretty good
okay then once we swipe like this we can
get access to these different tiles so
you can uh click around and see your
sleep stats you can see your uh heart
rate obviously you need rer watch to see
that okay and if you want to go back
simply swipy that in any menu again you
can customize this Styles in the phone I
think as well so overall quite cool
watch also on the main watch face we can
actually click on these individual items
here to go directly to them so that’s
actually pretty good and as you can see
you can click pretty much any of them
and it’ll bring you to the corresponding
stuff so you can see your step count
here how many calories you have earned
today and how many active minutes you
have had and actually I really like this
Exercise Modes
watch face because it looks good and you
can quickly tap on it to start an
exercise so let’s see what exercise we
can actually get on this watch so you
can see you got quite more so you can
click more so you can see we got 16
items for the water sport 10 for the
different outdoor
activities uh different training stuff
here okay so insane amount of stuff
actually so so even different boxing Tai
Chi Judo karate I really don’t know how
it’s able to even track that stuff.
in winter sport activities so even like
track your chess activity what the hell
that’s interesting so you can ride your
horse with this watch as well so
absolutely amazing and overall I really
Overall Feel
think this band n is actually a great
device it’s actually so compact so when
you actually wear it it doesn’t takes up
any space at all and you can barly even
feel it when it’s on your hand and
really the display quality is absolutely
great on this watch indeed on the
previous like MI bands it was quite dim
and it wasn’t that good however I can
see and clearly tell that the display
actually on this watch is really good
and yeah also we do get crazy good
battery life on this as well literally 3
weeks that’s insane also the band
