Thanks a lot, I can only say that your reviews are brilliant as always. Actually I expected this video would be for Samsung fit 3. I am so excited to see your opinion in mi band 8 pro comparing it with the fit 3 and i am waiting to see your review of the oneplus watch 2 as well.

I have a question does your heart rate sensor first detect a heart rate of 100-120 and then give you the actual value? I had a Xiaomi watch 2 Pro LTE and I returned it for this reason. It didn't matter whether the measurement was smart or every 1 minute.

It will be interesting to see a comparison of this Xiaomi Watch 2 vs the TicWatch Pro 5 in battery life etc as I'm considering the Tic watch PRIMARILY because of not needing to charge it every coupla days (my preference will to have always on display & all the health tracking features off). Basically, I want a good smart watch that'll take calls and provide message notifications. I DID consider the Huawei group of watches just because they can do that and the EXCELLENT battery life too... 🤔😏 😎🇬🇧

I'm using this watch since yesterday. It's battery life sucks now. I hope it'll improve over charge cycles. I have an issue with green sensor (heart rate) if i use custom watchfaces like Watchmaker or Facer, the sensor works continuously. I think watchfaces forced to get heart rate and it drains battery too much. So i block the permissions to sensor for the watchface apps but also i want to see the heart rate by pressing a button. Is there a watch face like that?

The difference is that even the old pixels and galaxys are updated to WearOS 4 and Xiaomi will probably never update to wearOS 4 if they released it now with and old OS They will abandon it and force you to buy a new model in 2025. thay is their strategy.

I got it on sale for around £100. It's my first smartwatch, and I'm happy about it except for the battery life, which can barely last a whole day. I upgraded from a fitness band whose battery could last for one weeks now I'm trying to get used to it.

£100 for your first smartwatch is a steal! Too bad about the battery life, but switch to power save mode and its basically becomes a premium looking fitness tracker, with longe battery
