Why biko

I can give you several reasons why it's a better choice cheesy

-Amoled Multicoloured Screen (this means crisps screen visibility, even outside under sun you'll see the contents of what's displayed)
Least I forget Amoled screen means more battery juice to play with cheesy

-Proven strong lasting battery. Since the 1st version of the mi band was realised in 2014 strong battery has been one of its main selling points. Despite the addition of many more features since then the battery strength has not reduced.

-Easily interchangeable strap. The strap is lightweight & comfortable to the skin & doesn't feel cheap as noted by abdsamad.
Though it comes in a TPU strap by default but you can switch to other strap types based on colours, design or materials (TPU i.e. plastic or Metal) that you want. There are thousands of choices to choose from even 3rd party bands. Google mijobs for instance you'll see what I mean.

-Solid app integration. No matter the type of smartphone you are using be it Android or iOS you're covered.

-NFC. If you want a future proof gadget then there's a version of the Mi band 4 that comes with NFC at a marginal cost. Else you can always choose the base version without NFC to reduce cost

-Proven Track record. I can't overemphasize this point much because it's a Xiaomi device cheesy
Like I said earlier this is the 4th iteration (4th generation) of the Mi band after making a name for itself since the first generation was released. No time for experiments cool

NOTE: These are standout points why the Mi Band 4 is more preferable to the umidigi watch. If you want a full sized smart watch on a budget which my friend kekilika will say the umidigi watch has over the mi band then I'll advise you go for the Amazfit Bip. I just learnt they're about to release a round version any moment even. tongue

At least I can vouch for the quality and durability of this device. The mi band is easily mentioned in the same sentence with other top quality competing smart bands such as the Fitbit, Pebble, Apple iWatch, Garmin, Samsung galaxy fit etc for obvious reasons. (In case you dunno these are the big boys in the wearables subsector).

Did I mention it is the best selling Smart band ahead of all these I've mentioned above? grin

Indian population is about the same as the whole Africa if not more
Well since they don't want, we want.

By the way they are "just" number 2 in Asia while we are number 1 in Africa in terms of population. You get my drift now wink

I and millions of people out there just want a smart band that works and gat no time for experiments. No wonder you said you won't get another umi watch again (see screenshot, no editing allowed) tongue
A satisfied customer ALWAYS makes a repeat purchase

What beats 5 years consistent top performance on a budget? Nothing else that's why the Mi Band is number 1 selling Smart band in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD grin

So people who refused to move from Redmi note 4 to RN5 and RN6 or from Mi max 1 to Mi max 2 and 3 in this forum are not satisfied abi? So definition of satisfaction to you is when I move from iteration to next? Because of one or few features added I should move to next iteration. We don't do that here.

The difference between the Mi 9SE and The K20 both CN versions 6/128Gb is $10

I hope you are not mistaking the K20 pro for the K20?

The only variant of the K20 is the Indian variant. Our Mi 9T which is the same as the K20 was priced lower than the Indians.


You get time oooo.

Search for Wi-Fi scanning in your settings and toggle it off. That's the culprit of your battery drain

Somebody please help!!!
I am facing the worst issue I ever faced in a phone.
The gps in my rn7 doesn't work!
Because of this, I can't use driving mode on Google maps or anything that needs gps location.
I have done all I can think of:

Tried all the suggestions from the internet

https://mobileinternist.com/redmi-note-7-problems#2

https://c.mi.com/thread-2232656-1-0.html

Flashed the latest rom,
Tinkered with various settings,
Set the gps to high accuracy, etc nothing has worked.

For all the good features that exists on this phone, such a basic feature as gps doesn't work!
All evidence points to a software bug.

Even my small redmi go has no issues whatsoever with gps.

Yo guys, So I just bought and unboxed the Xiaomi Mi 9T. It's been an awesome device so far. What I love about the phone is how the 4,000mah seems to last for ever. This is turning out to be one of my best phone purchase.

Did you receive 3 times (the airtime you recharged) call bonus on the sim too?, because it seems it's either double data + call bonus OR triple data + no call bonus.
